I am removing the eye liner from my palettes.  Just to be on the safe side.  I love the palette other than the horrible eyeliner fiasco.  And I still have no idea as to why the store closest to my house had 2 boxes.   It is also where I had the defective liners.  Today in a close city the lady actually slid her hand under the plastic and we both saw they were in great condition.  

All I have to say now is that I got all 3 in great condition so I am happy.  The palettes are really, really cute!  I just can not believe that they are not flying off the shelves.  I am embarrassed because I told the lady w/the 18 palettes that the remaining 9 would fly off the shelves within a few hours.  They didn't.  None had been sold.

Just watch out for defective brushes and tiny dents in the shadow.  I have have had Urban Decay BOS with those dents so they really don't bother me.

Happy Hunting  It is worth the trouble if you are careful! and inspect the liners!

I was able to find them =) I bought Malificent (sp?) because it was the only one with a glitter eyeliner. Lol! If anybody wants me to snatch one up for them, I'd definitely do so! Just PM me.

That is correct!  They now seem to be arriving and put on display!  I think all stores will eventually get them!  Yeah!

 
Yaaay! I just got all 3! I had to talk to 2 managers, and turns out they were in a box "in the back". She went and got them for me and she said, "do you want all 9?" I would have bought them all, but had some expensive automotive work done today, so I'm poor. Anyway, I am so happy! I think the shadows are so pretty! Thanks Amber, for all of your research and for finding the store locator!

 
i keep seeing this thread and you guys are making me want to get all three of the pallets!!

gah... do buy or not to buy?

There are two similarly-shaped small tubes, one a nude color with a doe foot applicator that's the shadow primer, and one that has a thin long brush that's liquid liner.  Two sets have black liners, and the Maleficent one has what I believe is a clear based iridescent glitter liner.  I sort of wanted that liner, but I wasn't as interested in the palette colors and figured if I wanted something like that I could probably just pick up a NYX one.  the Maleficent one had the most different/dramatic eyelashes of the three with the sort of repeating triangular shape.

The two "cheek/lip colors" are in a short golf-pencil sized form.

Plus the shadows, glue, and eyelashes. 

Fairest of All's blog has good pictures of the inside where you can see the labeling of the products, and she as swatches as well.

I actually really like the liquid liners that came with all my palettes. The Maleficent glitter liner is a close dupe for an urban decay iridescent heavy metal liner and the 2 black liners are more pigmented than my usual UD perversion liquid liner. These liners are shorter to fit in the palette, but actually contain more product than my UD liquid liner as well. I expected them to go on runny and uneven being so cheap so I was pleasantly surprised. My brushes were all intact, bottles full, and I actually dropped one of the black liners on the floor and luckily it seemed tough enough to take the fall.

A lot of people I know have purchased them and had no issues either so perhaps you got a bad batch in the display you bought?

I actually didn't mind the liner except for the one of two that was messed up.  If I trim the stray bristles, it might still be usable, but the brush on it is a lot thicker than the other one.  I wasn't sure if that was intentional, but I doubt it.  I don't know about their staying power on me which is nearly always an issue, but that style of liner is one I find the easiest to apply and I had some fun playing with it.  Also, I didn't experience any pooling of the liquid on the applicator that my UD liner likes to do which is always a good thing.

I found their staying power to be pretty decent, at least with normal wear. They did irritate my eyes slightly, but that's not uncommon for me. And yes my UD liners pool too and it drives me crazy!! They definitely aren't anything spectacular, but I'm at least glad I'll get some use out of them and they don't feel like a wasted product

They are currently sold out online. Do you know if they'll be back in stock any time soon?

I'd go to a store, but none around me are carrying elf/the palettes.

I just have oily lids, so pretty much zilch sticks around for too long & liners especially migrate, smear, flake, and the like.  It's pretty annoying, and as a result I'm not good with liners because I never practice due to never wearing them.  My favorite is when I choose to line my waterline and end up with the liner all underneath my eyes in nice soft, dark circles.  The first liquid liner I found that I liked was the the perversion 24/7 liquid UD liner, but the pooling has ruined quite a few applications despite being very careful as the hidden drip sneaks up on you and drips down into the line you've created.  These elf ones have a much thicker brush, but I surprised myself by really liking the application.  If the wear pans out at all, I might have found a cheap liner I can comfortably play with.  That would be the biggest plus in this kit for me personally.  That, and more eyelashes to mess around with.

I completely understand....i have normal lids, but I live in Fl where it's constantly raining or humid so my makeup always smears everywhere. I don't even attempt to put anything in my waterline anymore or it's a complete disaster haha

 
Know people are finding things wrong with their palettes but yall got remember that elf is cheap brand of make up. Some of their stuff is really good and some not so good.  There are really not going to be a lot of other make up brands that are going to sell a palette with 8 Eyeshadows, 2 Lip & Cheek Color Pencils, 1 Eyeshadow Primer,1 Liquid Eyeliner, 1 set of False Eyelashes, 1 Lash Adhesive Glue, and 1 Built-in Mirror for $9.99. My Dark Shadows palette from NYX was 20 something dallors. And you know that urban decay is not going to have no 9.99 palette lol. I would say enjoy what you got because so far there are still a lot of people that want this palette that has gotten it. Even know my cousin found them for me, none of my walgreens have them and I want the palette I just got lucky that cousin was willing to help me find them. Two of my friends have been bugging our walgreens and the people at walgreens are telling the same thing that a lot of yell are getting or had been told. Like, we dont carry elf, its not on our list, we're not getting it, it mite come in with our christmas stuff, or stop bugging us we're not getting it. I just happy Im getting it and get to try new looks with it.

 
I found it today! I only bought the Cruella De Ville one, since it's the only one I could actually see myself wearing. I got it from the Walgreens across the street from my apartment building, where I've been checking everyday. When I came in, the makeup girl saw me and said that they had finally got it! It hadn't been put out yet, the manager brought it out for me. The box said JA cosmetics on the label. The box had 3 of each palette. I am loving the eyeshadow colors! I'm not too sure about the lip/cheek pencils, I think that they'll probably function well only for the lips.

My roommates are also super happy that I finally got it as I've been bugging them into walking across the street everyday! The makeup workers at my walgreens knows me as the girl who collects makeup, I usually teach them new things when I'm there. 

 
Went to 3 stores yesterday and couldn't find anything. The store that's on e.l.f's website had no idea was I was talking about. The guy helping me got 2 managers to check it out too, even checking the back. I find it strange though, because at these particular stores, they only had one other e.l.f palette and that was it, so I think it's weird that it's Walgreen's exclusive when they don't even carry the extensive brand.

I'm going to keep calling the store though. I WILL get my hands on these! e.l.f is very smart here, now that I've gone to so much trouble I'll most likely buy them all!

 
Hey guys, I have a Walgreens right down the street from me, I actually just bought the last Cruella and it looks like so much fun!! I can always check and see if they have the one you want and ship it to you. Just PM me if you want me to check and see if they have the one you want.

 
I wore the Cruella day look today. Went through the tutorial and everything, LOL. I used my own liner (Eyeko skinny in Olive) and primer (UD) and used the shadows from the palette as instructed. Very pretty. I'll bet it will look even nicer next time, as there is a learning curve with these shadows for me since they are not as pigmented as the UD. Still, I was pleased and feel I will wear it again. I look forward to trying the Evil Queen at some point too. Tried to get pictures to share but learned I am terrible at photographing makeup looks. I have a new appreciation for those of you who do that well.

edited to add: Some of the shades are more pigmented than others. The sparkly highlighter shade seemed to show up better than the others immediately.
