Glow Up Eyeshadow Palette (12 Shades)
Private Society Cosmetics · Clothing & Accessories > Makeup & Cosmetics
Era / Decade
Early 2020s; specifically around 2019-2022 based on the brand's primary launch and subscription box presence.
Material
Pressed powder eyeshadows housed in a cardboard/paperboard glitter-finish palette with a magnetic closure and likely an interior mirror.
Condition
Fair to Good. There is visible staining or grease marks on the external glitter packaging. The 24M (24 month) PAO (Period After Opening) symbol suggests it may be near or past its safety shelf life if it was opened over two years ago.
Demand Level
Low. Cosmetics have a short shelf life, and Private Society is a 'subscription box' heavy brand which tends to fluctuate in value and demand.
Resale Value
Estimated Resale Value
$10.00 - $18.00
Estimated Retail Value
$32.00 - $42.00
Comparable Sales
Recent sales for 'New In Box' versions of this palette range from $15 to $22. Used or damaged secondary packaging versions typically sell for under $10 or are bundled with other items.
Description
A professional-line eyeshadow palette featuring 12 high-pigment shades. This Private Society Cosmetics Glow Up palette is 'MUA approved' and cruelty-free. The packaging features a sleek, black glitter texture. Total weight 0.50 oz / 14.4 g. Made in PRC and designed in the USA.
Key Features
Includes a mix of matte and shimmer shades, cruelty-free certification, 24-month shelf life once opened, and perceived exclusivity as it was often featured in high-end subscription boxes like BoxyCharm.
Authenticity Indicators
Clear branding, batch code (9XA) visible on the bottom right, and standard industry symbols (Leaping Bunny, recycle, PAO). Medium/High confidence in authenticity as this brand is not commonly counterfeited.
Flaws to Note
Significant dark staining/discoloration on the front cover (looks like oil or liquid damage). This is an organic material (cardboard) so it is likely permanent. Used makeup has low resale value due to hygiene concerns.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Mercari, Poshmark, or Facebook Makeup Buy/Sell groups. eBay is also an option but has stricter rules regarding used cosmetics.
Selling Tips
You MUST show the inside of the palette to prove if it is used or new. If used, sanitize with 70% isopropyl alcohol and state so in the listing. Use keywords like 'MUA Approved,' 'High Pigment,' and 'Cruelty-Free' to attract buyers.
