So I went ahead got a jump start on my list for Santa and picked myself up the Tarte Jewelry Box palette since I received my $15 Beauty Insider gift card from Sephora. I’ve had my eye on this one for a while and it’s so amazing!
The palette comes with 16 shimmer shadows, 16 matte shadows, a highlighter, a bronzer, and 5 long wear eyeliners. It is a limited edition set and only available at Sephora. It makes a great gift for the holidays! It even comes with a cute little necklace!
What Tarte says:
What it is:
An exclusive, limited-edition palette packed with 32 new eyeshadows, eight lip glosses, a mineral bronzer, a new shimmering powder, five deluxe long-wearing eyeliners, and a detachable necklace.What it does:
This versatile palette is a veritable treasure trove packed with new and limited-edition products and shades along with such Tarte bestsellers as a full-size of Park Avenue Princess Mineral Powder Bronzer. As an added bonus, this festive jewelry box comes with its own “off the chain” gilded trinket, guaranteed to be your go-to accessory for holiday parties and year-round.
I’ve swatched all the eye colors, pencils and highlight/bronzer…

[…] I love the warm of the gold and cranberry and a glittery lip for some jazz! I used the Tarte Jewelry Box palette, which I reviewed previously. […]
Hi there,
I’m interested in this palette, and I’m curious to know… now that you’ve had it for a few weeks and you’ve presumably used it a few times.. What’s your overall satisfaction / rating of it? Do you feel like the eyeshadows have a good color payoff? Do you feel like they’re too sheer / muddy? I bought the Royal Collection and so I’m looking for more colors now and am just really curious how these colors pay off.

Thanks for the comment, I’ll answer here too in case others are wondering as well. I love the palette, the pigmentation is higher for some shades than others, but they are all very soft and easy to work with/blend. I do find that because they are soft, you get some fall out. The value is unbeatable for the number of shades and amount of products that you get. I like the matte shades very much! There are some gems as far as colors, like the cranberry, copper, and olive colors!
Oooh, I have one more question; Have you done any tutorials based off this palette?
I see you found it, yay! but in case others are looking for the tutorial using this palette check it out here: http://www.acomplicatedmelody.com/2010/12/tutorial-gold-cranberry-holiday-look/
I’m having a hard time deciding between this and the Lorac Box Office Sensation Palate. I’m looking for a variety of colors but I also want quality, value, and wearability. I can’t afford both right now.
Any input?
I had a hard time deciding between the 2 as well! I went for Tarte for the amount of product per shadow and the quality of each color was a bit more consistent. Also I thought it would be better for travel. I love Tarte and Smashbox but I like the jewelry box better.
