I ordered 88 palette from Coastal Scents on 19th of this months and I have received it today. The Coastal Scents palette came boxed and bubble wrapped in perfect condition. It’s a brand new palette and there has been no damage at all.

It ordered it from Coastal Scents website www.coastalscents.com and everything inclusive of shipping cost me Rs 1400/- I chose the cheapest shipping option.
There are 88 colours in the pallet and the pan size is exactly the size of a Cadbury gem.

Most colours in the Coastal Scents palette are matte, which was what I was looking for.





A mirror and applicators are fit inside the flap.

Closer look. π

The colours are quite pigmented.

They have sent a very tiny blush sample . It’s called Sassy.

Me happy. :))
Wowwww..amazing collection and the stuff is so pigmented!! π π π Me ordering it..as soon as I come home from Diwali vacations!! :dance: :dance: :dance: ..and that blush looks so pita hua!! :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: π π π
he he that blush is actually pita hua only. I think I would be able to apply it only on one cheek. π π
The palette is gorgeous. ANd I like the amount of colour you have in each pan. I would be able to finish them up atleast. π
wow…..so many colours………one does not need to buy anything after this for a long long while…….:)
I agree Monica, It covers almost everything. π
just to look at the CS palette makes one soo happy na π u got the matte one na..not shimmery I mean?? 1400 bucks is a good deal :yes:
Yeah I didn’t order the shimmery one. and 1400 is a great great deal for 88 shades. π
Congrats π I’m loving my warm 88 palette so much that I know you’ll love this :))
shipping is superfast, no? one more reason to love coastal scents :))

hi rati, which shipping option have you chosen?i was pretty confused coz they dont give you tracking no. in the cheapest shipping option..
I chose the cheapest option only. No tracking number nuffin. π It reached. π
please chuck the blush in the bin :rotfl:
and rati actually i tries filling the cherry culture thing but they ask for zip code and some how i am unable to fill and start my account
what is it….
Neha, perhaps you are not changing the country option there…its by default US..change that and you’ll see that our Indian states come in the list..then u can put in the PIN code.I ordered from Cherry culture…and it was fine..try that.!! π
oh thanks a lot anupam and rati
my hubby says …dekha ..bhagwaan bhi nahi chahte tum order karo π
god is great
:smug:
Nahin, just change the country. God will shower all his blessings on you. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
Neha exactly what ANupam has mentioned. That blush is really going in bin. :rotfl: :rotfl:
I wont be able to purchase it till late December!! :-(( :-(( :-(( :-(( :-((

Wow Wow Wow So gorgeously pigmented.Eagerly awaiting the pwetty looks now Rati :beauty: :beauty: :beauty: π π
Sharon yesh yesh yesh… :))
TUTORIAL ! TUTORIAL ! TUTORIAL ! TUTORIAL ! TUTORIAL ! TUTORIAL ! TUTORIAL ! TUTORIAL ! TUTORIAL ! TUTORIAL ! TUTORIAL ! TUTORIAL ! TUTORIAL ! TUTORIAL ! TUTORIAL ! TUTORIAL !
looks amaaaaaazinggggggg…such vivid colourssss !!! did you choose the matte one or the ulta shimmer ? there isn’t much difference between them… gems ke siza ka means it must be pretty small na ?
yeah they are pretty small. π
I chose the regular 88 palette. No shimmer or ultra shimmer. π
Hi rati,
not taking my address…..it says N/A….. π₯
hey same here :-/
Oh!! I don’t know. :((
Trust me I was drooling over ths one and just yday I mailed Deeptima asking for which one is better the one with shimmer or the normal one.
Both are different, Aarthi. Depends on what you are looking for. I wanted more mattes so went for this one. π
hey m also looking forward to buying this 1..
ALl the best. π
I so want to love this paltte and so want to have it… But i am not sure if I will ever use it entirely…
I put it in and took it out of my shopping cart 4-5 times!!!
I fear that I will use only a few colours and will never use others.. And after a few days i will be left with a palette full of odd colours…
Am i being too paranoid?????
No! I did that too :)) hence ordered the warm one – that’s got a lot less shocking colours!
hey…hi ki….how has ur warm palette turned out? is it also so well pigmented?
Mrunmayee, actually I wanted to have loads of colours. I wanted to experiment because there is no way I could buy so many colours separately so went for this one. π Also it has loads of neutrals as well , I was all the more convinced to buy it. π
Go for warm if you don’t want to use so many colours. π
*avataar
how can i change it?
Go to gravatar.com and change it. π
I personally love coastal scents. I have a gift voucher since two week burning my pocket. I guess i am gonna go with their new eyeshadow quads. You have to check them.
Will check it out Sarah. They have some eyeshadow pots or something also na. A lot of people say they are comparable to mac shadows. π
wow this looks great !! me too planning to get the matte one π since I have enough shimmers !!
Same thing I was struggling with , Insiya. π This looks like worth it. π
btw your mehendi color has come out too good :yes: :-))
Thankyou. π
I have one very useful suggestion for people who want to order stuff online- open a paypal account and pay through that. Most of these companies give you option to pay through Paypal. And if you do that, you can claim your refund through Paypal within 45 days if you do not receive your products or receive them in poor conditions.
Rati ordered brushes through Sigma once, and I made her pay through Paypal only. Glad that I did. The brushes didn’t arrive and we had no tracking number. I opened a case in Paypal claiming refund and got the money back.
A pretty good suggestion there. ! Thanx Sanjeev..I keep ordering once in a while..but never thru Paypal..Guess was just lucky that no ‘absent couriers’ till date..!! But will keep this in mind.
I wish we had paypal in Pakistan. Hate them :/ Gah
I have this!! I have this!!I got mine last year..Its a fun palette…But I find a few of the colors more powdery than pigmented esp the lighter ones..the darker ones are quite pigmented..one swipe and you are done..!!.And you can do numerous looks there without getting bored…!!Plus one can always combine other e/s with shades from this palette and create..!!Creativity overflows with this one!!…
And yes!! I love to order from CS …they deliver like super fast..even with the cheapest option…and its in super good condition too..and the samples !!.. :yes:
Rati, I sent u a mail..did u receive it??
Anupam, haven’t checked out all the colours yet. Had a long day today so haven’t even seen it nicely. Sigh!! ut yeah I also purchased it mainly because I wanted to experiment with the colours and see what looks good on me and what doesn’t. There was no other way I could do that. π
havent checked my mailbox yet. will reply. π
but i still like this palette…..just the numerous color choices…total freedom…and YES!! cannot buy so many separately….band baj jayega!! π
I’ve paypal account!! he he he π π π ..but only $4 in it… :-/ :-/ :-/ ..I think I need to do something about it now!! :-)) :-)) :-)) :-))
Cali, you can attach your credit card with your paypal account. In your paypal account look for how to verify your credit card. Afterwards, I don’t think you need a single penny in your paypal account. If you order something and the paypal account does not have sufficient funds, it charges your credit card. That is what I think, although I have never done it in practise.
I don’t have credit card!! π :shame: :shame: :shame: :shame: ..I use debit card or net banking to do all my online shopping! π π π

Apporva while checking out you get an option to pay via payal. Just checkout using that option. Nothing else. π

Thankoo, Deeptima. A lot of credit goes to you in helping me take the final decision. I was so confused otherwise. :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*
yeah nivedita. I especially wanted this because it has so many matte colours. π
How mannnnnny eyeshadows does this girl need π― π― π― π― :pain: :shout: :shout: :shout: :alien: :alien: :alien:
It was an investment – 88 colours. π π π π
you sound like becky bloomwood here!
And between you and Deeptima….I should blame both of you…you have any idea how much a single black twist-up eyeliner pencil costs?? 150..and I wait for discounts…..and buy maybe one a year….and now you people make me eyeshadow crazy and I don’t have money to buy ice creams any more :pain:
Radsssssssssssssss!!! :hugright: :hugright: :hugright: :hugright: :hugright: :hugright: :hugright: :hugright: :hugright: :hugright: was missing you!! :-* :-*

was eyeing on this since a year :-(( :-(( :-(( :-(( :-(( :weep: :weep: :weep:
I think time to get a credit card for the online shopping π
my dad gonna kill me :rotfl:
oh wow!! That sounds nice. π
he he Jinal, use Dad’s credit card. That’s easier. π π
My dad hates using credit card!! :-(( :-((
He threw his last credit card after the bank issued some unnecessary dues π
I should ask one of my friends to order for me….what are friends for :smug:
:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
Hi Rati,
Very nice Palette.
Hv ordered few things from cherryculture.com on 20th October. Waiting for the delivery.
Status showing Completed on site.
All the bessssssttttt :fingersxd: :fingersxd: :fingersxd: :fingersxd: :fingersxd:
i feel the 78 Piece Makeup Palette is better… u have a mix of the matte and shimmer colors and blushes as a bonus… π
Aarthi,
This also has a mix of mattes and satiny shades. π
1 word for the palette.. CUUUTEEE :-* :-* :inlove: :inlove:
:-)) :-)) :-)) :-)) :-))
Will check it out Nidhi. Thanks for the reco. :)) Yeah I love browns.. π
Nidhia,
You can check out Inglot brushes. If you want to go for very inexpensive options you can go for vega brushes. Just that with Vega you would have limited brush options. π
wow…. they do look like gems!
yeah they are pretty gems. π
Rati u din reply me
i live in chennai rati, would like to know coastal scents ship here to the south ?:-)
I think they should. You would have to check with CS only. π
Ordered my cs pallete on 14th dis month … no news yet … Super worried… paid thru credit card …. terrible ….. x :-((
Aarti, it would reach you fine. dont worry. π
awesome! :chic: :inlove:
btw what is the size of this entire case?
and do these have fallout?
some of the darker shades have fall out and the size is of a cadbury gem . π
I sooooooooooooo much wanted to order this coastal scents palette yesterday… but BF said I don’t look good in eyeshadows!! :-(( :-(( hence dropped the idea!! π₯ π₯ π₯
oh!!!I think you look good with eye shadows but anyway… :hugleft: :hugleft: :hugleft: :hugleft: :hugleft: :hugleft: :hugleft: :hugleft: :hugleft: :hugleft:
My dior lipppy is shipppedddd…Mee soooooooooper excited!! π π π If this comes fine then will order other thingies from Amazon!!
which dior lipstick have you ordered? π
Dior Dior Addict High Shine Lipstick Front-Row Fig 914 π
I cant see the shade…It’s like deep maroon kinds…
Its translucent maroon shade….Earlier I was planning to order the same shade you’ve reviewed here..but then bf said I already have so many pinkssss π π …so I thought of ordering something different. Went through the catalogue and found this shade quite interesting… π …Will send you the piccys once I get it “safe and sound” :waiting: :fingersxd: :fingersxd:
oh awesome. π These lipsticks are awesome. They are super moisturising and you feel like reapplying them all the time. π
he he….I can guess that..Have always got 100% satisfaction reviews from all Dior lippi users.I mean everyone giving it five :star: :star: :star: :star: :star: all the time was like π― π― π― … I needed to have atleast one Dior lippy…But, since I am a bheegi billi :cat2: in going to all these counters and daring them to let me try somethings there :-(( :-(( ..I thought my Amazon gift vouchers can help me do that!! he he…. π π π
Thanks Rati,

I wish i would have read ur post about paypal before. But hoping it gets delivered.
