Coastal Scents Revealed and Revealed 2 Palettes with Dupes for the Naked, Naked 2, and Naked 3 Palettes.

I just got the Revealed 2 palette from Coastal Scents (bought and paid for by me), and since I got mine so quickly after the release I thought I would list the Naked 3 dupes for you all.  And since I was doing that, I also snapped pics of my Revealed palette since I listed those dupes for myself when I got it.  I only just got the Revealed 2 palette, so I cannot really comment on performance yet. Dupe is of course a relative term, but for the purposes of this post, I am calling it a color that is awfully close if not identical.  That said, the formulas are sure to  differ.  I have enjoyed my Revealed palette thus far. I should note that Coastal Scents is not my favorite brand based on my experience with their customer service, but I am willing to purchase from them on occasion. Each of the Revealed palettes sells for $19.95 each. Enjoy sweet peeps!

Something I would not buy again: 22 Piece Brush Set from Coastal Scents. UPDATE!

Updated August 12- After some exchanges, Coastal Scents has indicated that they will be sending replacements for brushes #2 and #4. I will update with full details once I have them in hand.

I can understand why they would not love this feedback, but this situation is not my fault. I would have MUCH preferred my brushes been in good working condition and so there would be nothing to contact customer service about. We will see how it goes from here.

Updated August 11, 2013 to add:

Check out what my Flat Buffer Brush did this morning! I am so appalled. 

Nice.  I emailed the picture to Coastal Scents.  I will let you know if they have any reply.

I ordered this brush set in early March for about $34, and upon arrival I could see that there was something wrong with the Powder Buffer (number 2 in the photo below), the head was really uneven and rough. I contacted customer service and they sent me a replacement.

By mid-July, the Powder Buffer (the brush they had replaced) (#2) and the Flat Buffer (#4) were falling apart at an alarming rate. I have only observed this issue of shedding with the larger synthetic brushes from the set, the smaller brushes have been fine. But still, I have hardly had this set for five months, and the two brushes I mentioned are coming apart so quickly that I am already looking for replacements.

I contacted Coastal Scents just to let them know about this issue, not expecting a refund or replacement (which was good because none was offered). I do hope the message got through to their quality control or manufacturing people because I would hate for this issue to be ongoing. I am surprised this happened in the first place because I had heard really good things about their brushes, and I sort of hope this was just a fluke.
