I was one of the lucky few to be able to get my hands on one of the Spring 2013 limited edition 8 pan palettes from Wet N Wild when they happened to show up in the Harmon's in the area a couple weeks back. I consider myself lucky since these seem to have flown right off the shelves and never happened to appear in Walgreen's at all. So disappointing. I actually found the one I ended up getting tucked into the nail polish display and fortunately it was the one I was most interested in picking up.
I was on the fence about getting the neutrals one only because I've seen swatches and there are a lot of UD Naked 1 Palette dupes in there. Since I already own both Naked Palettes I figured I really don't need to buy something with so many dupes of something that I already own. Why don't I just use my Naked Palette, right? That being said, I'm sure if I actually came across it in the store, I'd probably buy it.
This palette contains 8 shades as follows. The left hand side has lovely purple shades and the right side has a great neutrals along with an awesome mint green shade. To be honest, the mint green shade is the reason that I wanted to palette so much. All shades have some shimmer except for the lavender shade which seems to be more of a satin.
Below are swatches over UD Eden primer potion.
Wish Wet N Wild would make these more widely available. The neutral palette does seem like something that should be available as part of the permanent line. Were you able to hunt any of these down in your area? If not, I know you can get them online now at Non-Pareil Boutique but you have to buy them as a set and the cost is $15. The couple of times I've ordered from Non-Pareil, I've been very pleased with my order though so if you are looking for a way to grab hold of these, this might be your best option.

I LOVE that mint color. Lorac had a mint color in one of their palettes but I didn't want to spend all the money to purchase it. This would be a great alternative. Hopefully I can find it in my area! Thanks for posting!

I consider myself extremely lucky to have found this palette. They never appeared in the Walgreens around here. I don't know why they are always so hard to track down. So frustrating. Hope you can find one :)
