Le Métier de Beauté Eye Kaleidoscope in Dominique- Saks Fifth Avenue Exclusive SWATCHES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When I received my Saks Fifth Avenue catalogue announcing their bag event (9/26-10/5) in the mail yesterday, this LMdB Saks Exclusive Eye Kaleidoscope in Dominique immediately caught my attention. The picture is taken directly from my catalog- therefore I did my best to capture its essence given that it is a picture of a picture. It isn't posted on the Saks website yet, but I imagine that it will appear soon since the event will start in 4 days. (Affiliate link)

Here are swatches courtesy of Rebekah!! Thank you!!! <3 More swatches to come!
Are you tempted? I want to see swatches!

    1. Hi Sara- I figured that this one might captivate you! I wonder how rich the pigmentation is. It's so hard to tell from the photograph!! I also wonder what kind of shade it would morph into when using the Couche de Couleur method? :-)

  2. Hi
    I'm not sure if it just me- but I have found that the last few kaleidoscope releases from LMdB look too similar!
    I think they need to change it up a bit and add new POP colours that will make each release a bit more unique- or am I being a bit too critical?

    1. I definitely don't think that you are the only person who feels that way-- I have heard lots of similar complaints.

    1. Isn't it pretty?! I am snapping a few more pictures to post right now. You get the bag with a $100.00 purchase, and a matching makeup bag if you spend $150. There are also a few samples inside, but not that many-- so the contents didn't seem terribly impressive. The picture is also SUPER small in the catalog. They also have 18 brand-specific "Step-Up" gifts with wildly varied buy in prices ranging from $65.00 for Clinique to $400.00 for La Prairie. The buy-ins seemed rather high in many cases-- with even Estee Lauder requiring $175.00 in purchases to get the gift. Nothing grabbed me enough to spend the extra money to get the gift. Had TF or LMdB participated- that may have been another issue altogether.

  5. Hi, Different subject but you seem in the know. I was thinking Barneys an Blogdorf Goodman usually have a bag event about now. Have you heard anything?

    1. Hi Cynthia, I think that Barneys is doing theirs in October, but I am still waiting to hear back. I wonder if Bergdorf Goodman will do theirs soon since NM just ended theirs? As soon as I get any information- I will post it. Have a nice Monday!

    1. I know what you mean! Isn't that generous?! I am grateful to her! I know- I spent far too much at NM-- so I am hoping to avoid additional temptations! :-)

  7. Hmm, these colors are a lot more muted than I thought they'd be. It's a fall palette, so it makes sense, but I pictured peach, a brighter sparkling plum, and maybe a dusty blue/periwinkle shade. i'll have to check these out in person. Thanks for the swatches!

    1. They definitely appear pretty muted, Christina. I guess it does make sense. I will try to get some additional swatches, if I can. If you get them first- would you mind sending me a picture? :D
