Question:
MAC Holiday Palette question...
I bought a MAC holiday palette recently, its one of the ones that has the big square powder blush in the middle, and four oblong eyeshadows and two oblong lipsticks grouped in three's on either side and two brushes that are at the bottom. I love the design on the front of this. There isn't a MAC shop near me just a counter. I asked if they did refills for this palette and was told no? It does look like the shadows etc come out, but there is no point if I can't buy replacements. Admittedly the lady kept saying "no the colours are a one off." I kept saying I didn't mind the colour it was the box that I wanted to be able to re-use. Should I take a trip to a MAC shop/pro-shop? Or have any of you guys bought refills for this? Do I need to post a pic to help or do you know which one I mean?
When you depot normal eyeshadows, the glue holding them in the case is really strong so you have to heat up the plastic to soften it. This melts the case and warps it, so I doubt you'd be able to take the pans out of the pallete when they're finished without ruining it.
Sorry!
I don't think you can buy anything other than round refills, the holiday palette designs aren't made to be refilled unfortunately.
You can buy from the Pro shop a palette that holds 15 eyeshadows and buy unpotted shadows for those though. I think they do one for blushers too.
I'm 99% sure that you can only buy the round eyeshadow/blusher refills so as CiC says, you wouldn't be able to refill it :(
Cheers everyone. Guess its off to ebay to see if anyone is selling a second one I can snap up...:D
