There is a little story behind all of this.
My local Ulta’s were sold out of this cool full size 12-piece shadow set from LORAC so I ordered it online. It came and one of the shadows was broken. I called Ulta customer service and after calling both of my local stores to verify none of these sets was in-store they said they’d send me another one by mail. The set that arrived was worse off. Two of the shadows broke (one of them was black and sparkly yikes..) and the shadow dust from both shades was all over the inside of the package. So it got all over the outside of every single shadow.
After talking to Ulta customer service they decided sending me a new one wouldn’t be best and sent me a gift card instead. They told me to donate the unused shadows so I decided to clean them up (using a baby wipe and drying them off with a Bounty sheet) and give them to one of you. They are unswatched/unused/unopened shadows so I really hope one of you will enjoy them! I love LORAC shadows and since they are full sized I thought this was worth it to pass on to a fellow beauty lover.
They cleaned up beautifully! Minus a little bit of Bounty lint lol! Feel free to click on the pic below to see the shades better!
So if you think you’d enjoy these shadows please use the Rafflecopter tool below to enter. Good luck-international readers are welcomed to participate!
P.S.-I will bubble wrap the hell out of these when I send them to you….
Alice Beerland says
I like the eye shadows of Madison Street Beauty!!
Stephanie says
My fav drugstore eye shadows are the wet n wild trios etc and my fave high end shadows are from my Naked palette good luck everyone
Angelique Arintok says
Urban Decay and Too Faced definitely make the best eyeshadows for me! They have some of my favorite shades of eyeshadow. (i.e. Half-Baked from UD)
Catherine says
Oh my goodness! That has happened to me at least 3 times. I don’t even try to buy it online anymore. At least they seemed pretty willing to work it out with you.
courtney b says
i like urban decay
Louise says
I’ve had my eye on this set! (I’m glad Ulta gave you some good customer service, too!) My favorite eyeshadow brand is Inglot. My favorite shades are 399, 402, 154, 153, 46, and 395. I’m convinced that Inglot isn’t more popular because of the dumb numbering system. My Beautylish cart is completely full of even more Inglot! Love them to bits. Thanks for the giveaway, Crystal!
Chelle says
Yikes! Makes me wonder why the heck those shadows are so fragile!
Harakun says
I usually use Nyx or Sleek eyeshadows in neutral colors
Liz D says
Honestly wet and wild has the best formula in my opinion for a drugstore makeup. Most of my high end shadows are Mac and urban decay. I love them both! Urban decay may have a formula that is a bit better. Sometimes it depends on the shadow. I would love to try these Lorac shadows!

Hey Crystal, I really love the shadows by Smashbox and Dior. One thing I’ll never understand is the little Bourjois pots – I feel like they don’t really have a crazy high end feel to them to be $18 each here in Canada!

Meghan M says
I love Wet N Wild you can’t really go wrong with the price!!
Shirley says
I really like high end eyeshadows because in my experience there are less “dud” colors. Lorac Pro palette is my current favorite. Before the lorac pro palette, I didn’t think I could wear matte shadows all over my lid because the matte color tattoos look horrible on me and so did the matte quads by physicians formula… but I took a chance on the Lorac Pro palette and it was soooo worth it! I think that because lorac formula is so buttery smooth, I was able to apply evenly without patches.
anum says
lorac!
Jennifer says
I love Bare Minerals, WnW, The Balm….

Bare Minerals Ready eyeshadows or my Lorac Pro Palette. So soft and pigmented and a dream to blend with. Hardly need to pick up any shadow or be aggressive with your eyelids. After you told us what happenedon Instagram I was hoping it would get resolved some how.
