I have had my eye on the flash palette for quiet some time now. I know it has a huge price tag, but i feel like it has so much product and wil be worth it... What I am wondering is if you have it and what you use it for...do you have pictures? any suggestions... or maybe dupers?

I remember seeing on Killer Colour's blog a while back where she made the 'Poor Man's Flash Palette' which is basically de-potted NYX jumbo eyeshadow pencils melted down into a similar container the actual Flash Palette is in.
the blog post about the idea of de-potting NYX Jumbo eyeshadow pencils:

I deliberated for six months before I bought it. I love it.
The comment about depotted NYX pencils is great--I depotted mine before I bought the flash palette, and using them from pots lets me control the amount used a little better...
The MUFE flash are softer than nyx pencils and even more pigmented. Unfortunately I don't have pics, but I do use it 2-3 times a week.
From the (very few) negative reviews I've read online, it seems like people expect the creams to 'set' which they do not. If you use them on the eye you need to use a primer and set with powder.
If you're a MUA or an aspiring MUA, I would say that it's worth the pricetag. It might also be an essential part of a drag kit. But if you just like playing at home, you can buy a shizz ton of NYX pencils for the same price.
What I use it for:
Gold and Silver colors: metallic/shimmery bases for eye looks or dramatic cheek highlights when blended out veeeery well.
White: used as a substitute for NYX pencil in Milk under fallout-prone or poorly pigmented shadows. Inner corner and browbone highlight. Whiting out brows or lips.
Coral: useful for drag to conceal 5 'o clock shadow or mixed with concealer to make a color correcter.
Turquoise: colored eye base, brushed through brows and set with shadow for new 'colored brow' trend.
Red: lips! blended out as blush, or as a base on the eyes. Useful for effects makeup applications--blood, etc.
Fuschsia: same as red.
Bright Blue: same as turquoise
Yellow: same as turquoise/bright blue
Leaf Green: Ditto turquoise/bright blue/yellow
Brown: lightened with white and mixed with coral for concealer. (You can do foundation with this but why would you?) Contouring, eye base, brows.
Black: eyeliner, eye base.
To give you an idea of how much product is in it, I've had this palette for about 6 months, have used it for all these applications, and the coral color is the only one that's dented--and only slightly.

I even found on MUFE website and online you can actually buy empty Flash Pallete for around 11.99 online, and looking at all the Jumbo pencils there are excact matches for almost every colors, except for the green and blue's but I can mix colors to get the right ones and the best of all my DIY flash palette is only going to cost me about $40 instead of $95!

I love my Flash Palette because it has so many uses! Great for eyes cheeks and lips! Perfect bases over a primer and under shadow to really make the colours pop. Great as colour correctors under the eyes and on blemishes. Amazing for body painting. A little bit goes an EXTREMELY long way!
If you're worried about the price... I snagged mine at IMATS 2 years ago for like $64... a steal!

I love my flash palette. I have had is for some time now and used it NUMEROUS times. The consistency of the jumbo pencils are deffinitly different. Flash palette is more creamier and easier to apply. The pencils settles fast and would take extra long to work with. I can't wait for IMATS NYC I will be getting another one : )

If you are a pro MUA I would advise waiting and purchasing your flash palette at The Makeup Show http://www.themakeupshow.com/ or a Make Up For Ever pro road show. I bought mine there for $49. I had previously depotted the NYX pencils but they are not as pigmented and a pain to depot. The flash palette was definitely worth the wait and $$
