Yeah, but powder can be translusent, and not require a ton of colors. Foundation - that's a whole other monster with shades, production, etc. I can see why, as a limited exclusive, that wasn't done. Imagine all the left over foundations not purchased. They'd be losing money.

I like the color story on the main palette. The names are fun.

Top row: Sexy Dancer | Crystal Ball | Endorphinmachine | Gett Off | Love 2 The 9s

Bottom row: Shockadelica | Groovy Potential | The Artist | Bold Generation | So Dark

I can't make out the other palette. And is the one on the bottom a mini or another regular one? I assume the black and white things are both eye liner pencils. Not sure what's in the squeeze tube.

One thing I noticed with Prince's makeup is that he never really did a lot of contouring. He never tried to narrow his nose, or sink his cheeks in with a darker contour. I never much saw a highlight on the top of his cheek bones, or above his brow, or even the tip of his nose. It always (with a few exceptions) seemed to be to even his skin and keep him looking snatched AF.

Per the Allure article, you can get the whole shebang in a special packaging for $250. Yowza. But tempted.

I mean, not bad? I'm a big spoiled because I buy a lot of Jeffree Star Cosmetics palettes, and they always stay right in the $52-58 range. When I see smaller palettes for more money, I'm like "Why is that so much?!" haha

But $250 for a limited run of something with Prince's name on it, okay. That's as much as we spent on SOTT deluxe, wasn't it? Or one of those damn things. I'll just get ONE, then.

$250, I think I'll pass.

Why can't they make it affordable?

That is affordable. This ain't drug store makeup like ELF or Maybelline. The $250 is everything in a special vault case. PRNFamily posted a screenshot from someone holding it up. $250 for what it is, isn't bad. Anymore, and I'd be raising an eyebrow at it. That's the ceiling for me.

This thread is fun to read since I have little interest in make-up. I've always left that to Prince and other experts.

I would love to read what's it's made of, where it's made, and what it's tested on.

Wasn't Prince against animal testings ?

Will that be on the label too if it's the case ?

And $ 250 fucking dollars...

This all is so embarresing i think.

Why the fuck not make his high heels available for $ 750 a pair ?

In all sizes, colours, prints, just to make it even worse.

And why not his silk underwear?

Or his vegas dishes ?

Am I the only upset by this wrong energy and efforts ?

What was Prince's main business again ? Music ?

Our dead prince can't be Ariana or Beyoncé or Madonna or whomever wants to releases make-up.

If the guy was still alive, and he did release this himself... OK.

His choice.

How many bloody times do people need to repeat that this is a non-animal cruelty company? Or, you know, how about you fire up the old Google machine if you care so much, and investigate yourself?

Intersting idea, lets see how it plays out

guys you misunderstand. i'm not angry that the estate is doing things that will make them money, i'm angry at the populance for making this the kind of stuff that will make the estate money.

Or you could be angry at Prince being a godawful business man who left a mess.

Im pretty sure he left more money than you will....
