I'll try to check a few other locations over the weekend. I used the $1 off tear-off coupon that someone mentioned earlier. Thanks again for the great info! I've had good luck in the past with BR eye shadows, so I can't wait to try these. :)sabrinaj99https://www.blogger.com/profile/15541063886235280979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923437194678664102.post-71497552821895424452011-12-29T21:47:00.605-08:002011-12-29T21:47:00.605-08:00@StacyL and Katsune

There are only 2 spots for each palette, so there were a couple palettes left. Maybe check some other walgreens in the area, call around :) Hope you guys find them!<br /><br />@BooBooNinja<br />There aren't any mattes in these palettes, just a mix of shimmers, satins, and some glittery shades.doom2rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16555552468846636893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923437194678664102.post-9158105069199975912011-12-29T19:44:19.998-08:002011-12-29T19:44:19.998-08:00Okay I just purchased Downtown Brown and I am some...Okay I just purchased Downtown Brown and I am somewhat disappointed that it is more of a mix of purples and browns but it is not a bad mix per se. I was expecting more of an all brown mix but I can deal. At the Walgreens I went to (on the corner of 86th/87th and Stony Island on the South Side of Chicago) they had some Black Radiance 4 shadow palettes on clearance and I snagged one, which is Neutral Zone, which I like a lot. I plan to get Urban Jungle and maybe Posh Plums.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923437194678664102.post-77197700816793007742011-12-29T10:50:47.597-08:002011-12-29T10:50:47.597-08:00@Jennifer What's the shimmer/glitter quotient ...@Jennifer What's the shimmer/glitter quotient like?

I didn't do a side by side comparison with the WnW palettes but I think there is enough different in the BR colors to buy them. It's hard to pick, but I think the Urban Jungle might be my favorite of the three, but I also love browns and purples so I may end up with all three. And I love Black Radiance products - my favorite are the glosses - super affordable, fabulous colors, decent wear time, I must have at least a dozen. I've seen BR products in CVS, Walmart and Kmarts also, but have only seen these new eyeshadows in Walgreens.CBBgreenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17808829493940119858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923437194678664102.post-29013782985654491652011-12-28T20:53:37.653-08:002011-12-28T20:53:37.653-08:00Bummer, Black Radiance isn't sold in my area. ...Bummer, Black Radiance isn't sold in my area.
