    I doing a prompt based project pan and I choose the Ireland palette for the prompt "packaging that inspires you" because of the sleeve!

  • @nail.art.hubris3776
    @nail.art.hubris3776 День тому

    The palette I bought because of packaging, is the Resurgence one from Unearthly Cosmetics in collaboration with Heather Austin. I just love, love, love, the packaging. Another one I've got on my list, just for the packaging, is the Dragon Eye palette, from What's Up Beauty. 😂

    • @shimmersandsilver
      @shimmersandsilver 10 годин тому

      YES! Dragon Eye is incredibly well done! I almost picked up Resurgence the other day when I saw it on Mercari for $16! The beetles are cute.

    Would you say the Serenity and Winter Wonderland are too saturated to fill in the gap left by Aurora Lights? I'm thinking that between them you have the colours covered 😊

    • @shimmersandsilver
      @shimmersandsilver 10 годин тому

      Hmmmm… that’s a good point. I think those two are just lacking the pinks of Aurora Lights, but otherwise pretty close. They’re all so lovely ☺️

  • @leaj3799
    @leaj3799 2 дні тому

    It’s funny how so many of these I own and are either favorites or I feel completely opposite about. I do agree on the packaging of the Baroque and Ornate- totally sold me. Baroque was one of the ones that taught me the same lesson from Colourpop- some colors are just not for me despite really liking the UA-camr who convinced me to purchase it. I bought that one and Blush Crush on Kelly Gooch’s recommendation. And while I really like Kelly and respect her opinions and reviews, I learned that her aesthetic isn’t mine. Funny because I can rely on her as somewhat of a complexion “twin” for foundation shades but things she likes in eyeshadow don’t necessarily work for me. Better to learn that from CP than a more expensive brand. At this point I’m keeping the packaging and moving the magnetic pans of shades I do like into packaging I love. I don’t mind the packaging of the Whatever and that one was a sleeper hit for me. The one that others loved with packaging I didn’t like was All That - which I definitely regret purchasing and pulled apart to declutter. Somethings that should work on paper, just don’t in reality and I got caught up with FOMO. Also Solmane never interested me (can’t really say why when I have plenty of other OE) but Cozy Cabin does; I just can’t justify the price. I never saw the similarities until you pointed it out so that’s interesting. It could be the arrangement of the shadows as I don’t mind the Blender Bunny column organization as I don’t feel it holds me back from experimenting with other combinations. But I also don’t mind when some palettes scramble colors to provide inspiration I wouldn’t have thought of on my own so I kind of see both sides. Untamed I’m on the fence about. I’ll pull it out in the fall and I love certain shades but they don’t all go together and I feel once you move beyond 2 or 3 it muddies up but I do like Sigma in general so I keep in around.

    • @shimmersandsilver
      @shimmersandsilver 10 годин тому

      That’s so funny, that we can have such different opinions on the same palettes. 😄 And the difference in personal preference too when you share coloring… I appreciate your thoughts, Lea!

    Good morning! After my initial order from Ace Beaute during their rebranding sale last week, I decided I wanted the Aura palette as well, but when I went back, it wasn’t on sale anymore. And the strange thing is a lot of their palettes came off sale during Memorial weekend, so I just kept an eye on it. Today a lot of their palettes that weren’t on sale for Memorial weekend are now back on sale. So instead of paying $34 I got Aura for 15!! Unfortunately they’re not offering f free shipping anymore unless you spend $75

    Hi Rachel. Öden’s Eye is located in Sweden, Stockholm actually. I’ve spoken with them and if I’m not mistaken, their corporation in China, I think, is for tax/business reasons but down quote me on that.

    I recently chatted with a friend about the lyrics of America Pie by Don McLean, which we looked up line by line, like "who is the Jester?" It seems like McLean was reminiscing about what he considered real Rock & Roll, and disparaging the "modern" stuff. The "modern" stuff that we consider classic now! "Classics" and "Oldies" are moving targets!

    • @shimmersandsilver
      @shimmersandsilver 3 дні тому

      Haha! That makes sense. I thought the song was specifically about the death of Buddy Holly (plane crash, nickname “The Music”), but maybe he just used that tag line to write a neat bow around the whole concept of changing music. How fascinating.

    I am loving this eye look recreation! I can only imagine how difficult it is to pack to move with small kids in the house. When I moved frequently, I was always frustrated by how many items had to be packed at the last minute, because we needed them every day. I finally developed a system I called "open boxes". I would put a box into an open cabinet with the box opening facing out. Then I'd put everything in the cabinet into the box and use it for days or weeks that way before the move. The morning of the move, I'd pull all these open boxes out of the cabinets and just tape them shut, and they're ready to go. Super helpful!

    Very pretty look. I really like these "inspired by" videos. When I went to bed the other night the Carol Burnett show was on and I loved the colors on Mama's dress, it was blue, turquoise, pink and purple flowers on a white background.... So those were the colors I used using the lure palette. I had a lot of compliments on that look...lol I love neons but I hate using them because they are notoriously hard to blend into other shadows

    • @shimmersandsilver
      @shimmersandsilver 8 днів тому

    We lived in a home much longer than we wanted, 23yrs, and even though we own it and it had a garage and a basement after the 3rd or 4th year, we probably should have moved into a bigger home but we made it work. 23 years later we bought our dream house.

    Blend Bunny never misses on quality, IMO. I think they're one of the best thought-out brands on the market.

      Agreed! My top mattes are viseart, Blend Bunny and lethal! Sydney grace is good too tho but I feel the same way Rachel does about their shimmer formula

      I agree about the BB mattes! I wish they’d challenge themselves a little more with color stories. We have had many rainbow gradients, some neutrals, and then mono/duochromatic palettes so far. I think Sickly Sweet and Machina pushed them out a little more, but still safe. I’d love to see some really creative color stories now, like Glaminatrix, Klarity, OE, and Fantasy Cosmetica!

    Katie Marie is so great! I love the way you described her use of color as courageous. Totally agree. I'm glad you're the sort of person who lifts to other creators. :)

      :-) Thanks! I think it's important that we lift up others, especially acknowledging where they are working hard and doing well. Plus, I figure that if people like my eye looks, they might like the ones that inspire me too! Share the love ;-)

    I think if there is a favorite color I’m likely to want quite a bit of it and small variations and formulas are still interesting . If I don’t adore the color scheme but still like it I might go for one (or two )cool purple/aqua palette with multichromes ? Not a total fave color story - I bought Adept Element 115. Other brands have similar BBB, Ensley Reign, Cosmic Brushes etc. but I’m not that into purples that every iteration Must be Mine! Greens on the other hand especially murky lime olive swampy ones? I Definitely have a problem. Some things once you have a good example in a good workable formula , you’re set . How many black gray white gradient palettes does a person need? I would have some leeway if there is a good bundle deal . Sometimes it’s cheaper to get a bundle and then gift the pieces you don’t love.

      Oh yeah, I know what you mean. If I have a decent representation of colors I don't use much, like pink, I'm not going to want every pink palette that comes out. But I, like you, have a weakness for greens! As for Element 115, I LOVE the way they did those colors and added in some orange/pink complements too. So well done. I have Cosmic Winter Wonderland and it's very pretty. Thank you for watching and sharing your thoughts!

    • @socialliz6805
      @socialliz6805 17 днів тому

      The base is really sweet tea, often flavored, often with added cream. Like the tea equivalent of a Starbucks coffee. Then the little "bubbles" in it are made of a kind of firm gelatin. Like firmer than most jello, but less firm than a Mike & Ike's candy. Closer on the firmness scale to jello. You drink it with a really wide straw so you get little sweet bubble pieces as you drink.

      Thanks, Danielle! Liz did a good job of describing bubble tea (also known as boba). Fundamentally it's a tea base with milk added in and little balls of tapioca at the bottom. The tapioca is usually sweetened by honey, and sinks to the bottom of the cup. There are variations in how different places make it, and they often specialize in other dessert-type drinks, but a basic bubble tea/boba is made like that. It's so yummy, but seems to be a love/hate kind of thing for people. LOL
