BareMinerals’ Box of Wonders kit

The “massive sampler” holiday kit (there is no kit comparable to Wealth of Beauty or Bells and Whistles, both of which had fullsize items.) This can be a good gift for someone who wants to try out BareMinerals. It may not be a great gift if someone already has a lot of BE, because they may have most of the items. The “gimmick” to this one is the presentation. The box is like an advent calendar, with 24 windows and 24 separate - if small - items. Everything is “travel” size.)

Three of the eyecolors are new (Amazed, Marvel, and Wonderment) but everything else either is part of the regular lineup, or has been previously released in other kits. The "a $235.50 value" is a bit misleading, though: if these items were all full-size, then the total value of the kit would be $411. Since their "travel" size items are generally half price when sold individually, that value comes to $205.50. So...I'm not entirely sure how they're doing their math, but it's a bit shaky. Still...USD&79 versus over USD&200?
