I love watching de clutters! 🥰 I just went through my own collection, and I managed to go from 34 palettes to 5. I even got rid of most of my Natasha Denona palettes ( I used to have all of the large palettes, I kept 3). Got rid of about half of everything else too. Even shocked my husband. 🤣 I’ve just finally come to the realization that I’m not a collector, I hate anything that feels like clutter, I’m not a youtuber, and honestly I’m in my 40’s and pretty basic in my eyeshadow choices. It felt so good!
I have hundreds of eyeshadow palettes and I recently did a huge declutter of them. I got rid of over 150 eyeshadow palettes so far. I sold most on Mercari and I gave about two dozen away to my family. All were barely touched and lot were brand new. I still have another 100-200 I need to sell or give away. It’s an exhausting process. But there was absolutely no need to have over 500 eyeshadow palettes when I’m not a youtuber or anything. I just really enjoy makeup.
Being an artist/creative means you have no boundaries to the medium you work with... would love to see your art. Maybe an art collection tour??? I like that your blonde hair is back.
When I’m decluttering eye palettes I will go through and depot certain colors that call to me and make a separate z palette. I’ve learned now to stop buying palettes and investing in good singles that I like and will use.
Mel, you have one of the very very best eyeshadow collections I’ve ever seen! I love how you take such great care of every single palette you have and even keep some of the packaging sleeves and boxes on some. I’m going to have to rewatch and rewatch this video because some of the palettes you showed off are so beautiful!! And why have I never tried Nabla eyeshadows? They are gorgeous! My favorite palette that you showed is the Dior cool toned palette so beautiful 😍 how did I miss that one? Amazing Amazing Video!! I’ve been really bored with my eyeshadow palettes and you have given me major inspiration! Have a great day xo 💜✨
I love eyeshadow palettes and anything to do with them. I also love declutters, because among so many products, we get to see what influencers (who try out so much) really like.
Oh yeah, good job! I’d love to see you go back and revisit some of these. Like once a week a shop my stash video? I always see those videos don’t have as many views, but I love seeing new looks with old palettes, especially since I own so many of them! 😂
I literally own the majority of those palettes based on Mel's recommendations and awesome reviews! I second the request for more shop my stash videos! Love them!
One reason I love your channel is because your love of makeup is so completely obvious- you are in this cause you have a passion for it and it always shows
A true makeup connoisseur! It's so fun seeing how excited your palletes make you ❤❤ beautiful makeup gives me this....butterfly like feeling in my stomach, and this excitement that's hard to explain! I have a feeling you know that feeling. Lol
You are braver than I. Eyeshadow is the thing i am a sucker for. I cant imagine going on an eyeshadow No Buy, thats what my nightmares are made of. Dont get me wrong, i dont think i go crazy or anything. I do buy new palettes very selectively. But just the thought of not being able to buy Any.... for Months... it gives me anxiety to think about. Lol
@@TheMocao I have so much good quality eyeshadow that I end up not using, so I wanted to take the time to rediscover them (which I can't do if I keep buying more 😂). Kind of comes at an appropriate time it turns out with the current situation. Hope you're safe and well wherever you are!
I love the excitement you Express when you pull out a fav. Imo, there's never a reason to explain keeping or not keeping a palette. They're yours, do what you want!
This feels so good to watch! It's quick, easy, you are not trying to find any excuse to keep one: "I love it, I keep it". To all other youtubers : you don't need to pretend being a make-up collector to keep things. Just do it and love it ♥️
You have really become one of my favorite you tubers. I honestly feel like you give a complete honest review and give enough info for us so that we can make the best decision on what we want to purchase or pass on. Thank you so much!
OMG THESE ARE MY FAVORITE VIDEOS!!!!!! I’m so excited Mel is doing one!!!!! Too bad I’m at work and will probably get in trouble for trying to watch lol
Watching you go through and display your collection is so intensely relaxing. It’s making me want to pull a bunch of palettes from my collection to put in my rotation.
That is a lot of eye shadow. Now I have the urge to buy more palettes after watching this. 😂 I enjoy the declutters because it helps me determine what is good and what is great. If you love it I know I will as well. Thanks for another informative video Mel. By the way that shirt is beautiful! Love that color on you!
Girl, you are the only influencer who exerts so much energy into her declutters that she goes into full on bronchospasm - you get the win, I’m a subscriber for life! I just got that Lorac 4 pro palette. Wish I’d seen this first. 😏
I don’t know what it is, but I love declutter videos. I’m planning to purchase a few of the Kaleidos palettes so I was happy to see you kept yours. Can’t wait to dive into those! 😍
I am obsessed with declutter vids, especially right now. I am new to your channel, and already I feel like I love your taste in makeup!!!! Sending love New Orleans 💜💚💛
Wow Mel decluttering 32 eyeshadow palette’s is amazing. I had so much trouble watching this video I kept saying oh my god I love that palette I need that palette. Then no I don’t need that palette I have enough pallets and then you pull out the next pallet and I’d say it again oh my god I love that palette I need that palette and on and on and on LOL
I am right there with you Mel, I need to do this and it is high time I get to my palettes as I have avoided them. I have given away so much already, but I do need the space and I need to get the older stuff out so I can refresh with things I really want and will use. I may have to let go of my entire old school UD collection (before they were sold). xoxo Lynn
Loved this!!! It Inspired me so much. In fact it sent me on a binge watch of palette collections videos. Anyway, I would love to see ALL of your Pallets!
As a fellow eyeshadow palette junkie. I love this declutter video as you are collector not just a person who owns a bunch of eyeshadows as there is a difference!
I like the platinum hair!! I LOVE the Tarte Trust, Lust and Fairydust, and not just for the packaging. I even bought a backup. I get complements when I wear that pallet. I know that you weren’t thrilled with it in the first place, but we all have different coloring in our skin and different tastes. I would never de clutter PatMcgrath, Natasha Denona or Viseart either. Love that Juvia’s Place violets mini pallet. That’s the only one of the mini’s I got. Haven’t tried it yet. Love all my Sydney Grace. Thanks for telling me about them. Glad you are feeling better.
Nice collection. I love to keep things or collect them just because they are cute also. Thanks for sharing. I kept thinking something was different with you...then I read the comments...the hair is back blonde. Nice 😀
Hi Mel. My first time writing a comment on your channel which I adore. I just wanted to say that everytime I watch one of your video and in particular that one, I can feel the LOVE you have for makeup. Thanks to share this with us. WIsh I could put my hand on the Vlada palette. I like it and can not find in anywhere anymore.
Do you still have the nars skin deep? I just bought it, hasn't arrived yet but im beginning to have second thoughts, maybe i should have got the too faced born this way..
I've stalked the Melt Gun Metal stack for years but so many reviews saying the shimmer formula is so flakey and fallout is awful keeps me from buying. I have the She's in Parties stack and the the shimmers in that are smooth and easy to work with. What are your thoughts on how difficult the Gun Metal stack is to work with? I'm not a makeup beginner so I can work with a somewhat tricky formula and I only wear cool toned shadows so the grays are right up my alley!
Mel, I have wanted to see your collection for so long! You and I have very similar tastes so this video will go down as one of my faves. Thank you for sharing! Muah 😚🥰🦋🦋🦋💕
Lynn Briggs that’s what I thought when I got it but it’s not that great unfortunately-the pigmentation just isn’t there so a lot of shades look the same and also my guess is most of them wouldn’t work on deeper skin tones. All of this made me very sad because Beijing opera is my makeup inspiration and red shadow is my favorite
Hi Melyou did very well with your declutter and as always you have very beautiful pallets and I'm sure you'd created beautiful looks with them I enjoyed your viseart in Charlotte Tilbury all your other goodies you showed usI hope they have a good home to go to I hope you have a wonderful day take care love you girl see you in the next video
Love declutters and your channel!!!! It's funny how the only Too Faced Chocolate Palette I have (Bon Bons) is the one you decluttered... I am on a No Buy Year and even started a channel to document it and hold me accountable, so I can't get any new make up this year, but seeing this was very satisfying. I will have to search your channel for inspiration with products I own.
I know this was hard for you, it is for me too. My weaknesses are definitely eyeshadow palettes and highlighters! Unfortunately I only have so much space so sometimes declutters are a necessary evil. You did good, I’m proud of you!
Loveeee these videos! So glad you are doing this video! I watched samantha's too! Love you Mel, I hope you have a great day today and you are so amazing!
When I was little and my grandma who raised me was still alive and i was living with her I got to take dance classes and did a dance to the Uptown girl😂😂 as soon as you said it I started singing it too!! Lol
I’ve let go of a few things recently too. I gave a few palettes to friends and if I had any samples or things friends didn’t want - I gave them to a local theater company. It’s nice to make room for new stuff sometimes.

Misty L wow thats amazing ! What are the 5 palettes you decided to keep ?
Wow! Thats super impressive! I second the comment above, what are the 5 that made the cut?
What made the cut ??
@@isabelle123_7 me too, I want to know
Yes please tell us!!! That is fantastic I have paired mine down to 3 pallets and two small z-pallets that are half full and 8 singles.
I'm really glad you kept the things you love instead of going into this with an "I have to declutter x amount" attitude!
I’d like to see you pull out older palettes and do looks with them. Love the look!

So here for this!!! 43 minutes of palette goodness 💖💖💖
Still watching & enjoying Mel’s videos. So grateful that they’re here to watch

Sarah Weaver I love seeing new looks with old palettes too! I often try searching specifically for those videos.
New looks with old palettes!!!!!!!! 🎉
Especially that sweet peach palette! I have it but i often forget about it and feel like a kid in a candy store when i remember that I do have it
It’s so fun to see your collection! Love how attached you are to so many of these - makes me feel like my makeup obsession is okay! 😉❤️
One reason I love your channel is because your love of makeup is so completely obvious- you are in this cause you have a passion for it and it always shows

Yes!
I always enjoy your videos. You are a ray of sunshine...I especially loved this one seeing the joy you have for them and for art . Thank you!! 💜
Love a declutter!!! 🤩🤩🤩
I love you!!!
Hello! Seeing all these Palettes is tempting me to buy more 🙈 I have 4 months left in my eyeshadow no-buy
💪🏽
You are braver than I. Eyeshadow is the thing i am a sucker for. I cant imagine going on an eyeshadow No Buy, thats what my nightmares are made of. Dont get me wrong, i dont think i go crazy or anything. I do buy new palettes very selectively. But just the thought of not being able to buy Any.... for Months... it gives me anxiety to think about.

I’m curious what caused you to do a no buy?
@@TheMocao I have so much good quality eyeshadow that I end up not using, so I wanted to take the time to rediscover them (which I can't do if I keep buying more 😂). Kind of comes at an appropriate time it turns out with the current situation. Hope you're safe and well wherever you are!
mutantfroggy makes sense! I always wonder what motivates no buys 😊 I’m doing well - thanks for asking...hope you are safe and healthy too!
I love the excitement you Express when you pull out a fav.
Imo, there's never a reason to explain keeping or not keeping a palette. They're yours, do what you want!

yo go girl... hope to see another eyelook with Marc Jacob's Silletto.. also Dior's Amber Neutrals... BLESSINGS, Latina 💛💜💚💛💜💚💛💜

If you love it I know I will as well. Thanks for another informative video Mel. By the way that shirt is beautiful! Love that color on you!
Love watching declutter videos but I just love seeing all your eyeshadow palettes. I would love to see more!! 😊❤️
Girl, you are the only influencer who exerts so much energy into her declutters that she goes into full on bronchospasm - you get the win, I’m a subscriber for life! I just got that Lorac 4 pro palette. Wish I’d seen this first. 😏
😂😂😂 thanks, love!!! 😘😘😘
Would love to see a blush/highlighter declutter!!
Lisa R and foundations. I’m always on the hunt for good ones. I love to know in one fell swoop what worked or not.
These videos are also great because I get to learn about some brands I'm not as familiar with! Thanks, Mel.❤
ok but this eye look... stunning! great declutter Mel!
I’d love to see some “shop my stash” with the palettes you’re keeping but haven’t done looks with in awhile!
Wooooo finally a declutter from this channel and woooo
omg the color of ur shirt and eye makeup looks soooooo amazing !!!!
Ugh I loved this video. I love that you showed all the shades/inside of the palettes. ❤️❤️❤️
I don’t know what it is, but I love declutter videos. I’m planning to purchase a few of the Kaleidos palettes so I was happy to see you kept yours. Can’t wait to dive into those! 😍

Exactly. I keep wondering how old these are--ew.
@@jos.4276 To be fair eyeshadows and most products can last for yeeears
Omg yes do more...I want a taste of your whole collection
This eyelook is everything! You're so beautiful and talented! I hope everyone has a good day :)
I really enjoyed this video. It's like a walk down memory lane. I enjoy all your videos
I am right there with you Mel, I need to do this and it is high time I get to my palettes as I have avoided them.

Such a treat to see more of your collection Mel! Awesome video!! Another look with the Glitter Storm palette from Ciate would be amazing!! xx
This look is everything! 😍
Isn't it? WOW!
I am so here for your face, the earrings, AND the neon.❤️
Oh how interesting. Really enjoyed this! Knowing what you kept is really useful Thanks Mel! Have a wonderful day 💕💕💕
Oh my goodness!!! The Manny MUA Makeup Geek palette review is how I first discovered you and your channel!!! Glad you decided to keep it!! 😊❤️
I recently let go of like 60ish palettes! Felt great to let them go and make space for new fun! Also I'm so glad you kept that one! Yay!
Mel,
unless I'm counting incorrectly, I'm decluttering 32 palettes
me, I always have to count more than once😊
LOL! There was such a mess on my table that I didn’t even want to try more than five times I counted 😂😂😂😂😂
Loved this!!! It Inspired me so much. In fact it sent me on a binge watch of palette collections videos. Anyway, I would love to see ALL of your Pallets!
I even love old declutters. RIP Mel! I miss you
Yes, more decluttering videos please! And can we see the little palettes in the shelf behind you? 🤗
Waited until I had a day off to grab some coffee and watch this bad boy! I love it! Good job Mel.
I loved looking at all of your beautiful pallets! Would love to see all of your favorites in the other drawers.
This video was a lot of fun!! Great job!
Love this kind of video❤️. For some reason any palettes with heart or diamond shaped pans make me angry. 👺 they gotta go BYE🤣🤣
You look stunning. Your whole look is a vibe.
As a fellow eyeshadow palette junkie. I love this declutter video as you are collector not just a person who owns a bunch of eyeshadows as there is a difference!

Glad you are feeling better.
Naked Cherry is one of my absolute all time faves, because it is really flattering to me personally. I also keep pretty boxes 💖
Nice collection. I love to keep things or collect them just because they are cute also. Thanks for sharing. I kept thinking something was different with you...then I read the comments...the hair is back blonde. Nice 😀
Just love watching decluttering videos.
The Stilazzi cool tones are GORGEOUS!!
Love this declutter style. Would enjoy seeing a video of your favourite collector's items and packaging

I need to declutter my life lol. love these videos-Mel you look stunning as usual!!! xx Mar
Yessss! More declutters! 💕
I’ve watched in 3 times but I really ENJOYED it! 👏🏻👏🏻 well done! Love your collection 🤩
We need looks with these older ones. I love your eyeshadow tutorials such as satisfying video
I can’t wait to watch this video! I love all your others but declutter videos get me so excited!!
Love seeing what’s in your collection 💖

You picking up the entire drawer to show us, I was not expecting that 😂 ... you have a lot of palettes I haven’t seen before, nice collection! 🥰
Declutters are my favorite! Partly because I am a minimalist, but also because I just like looking at eyeshadow palettes 😁
Mel, I have wanted to see your collection for so long! You and I have very similar tastes so this video will go down as one of my faves. Thank you for sharing! Muah 😚🥰🦋🦋🦋💕
I'm only 5mins in & you're just making me want to shop more 😂😂😂😘
I love the look of the Nabla palette! 💕
Wow, that Urban Decay Cherry Pallette is GORGEOUS. That would have stayed in my drawer!

@@laurenjohnson9865 Thanks for the reply! I appreciate it.
And THAT day has come for Mel 😜 and I'm here for it! Doing that with my Art supplies...soooo hard!
Just wanted to say... You are GORGEOUS!!!!!! Now back to the video ❤❤❤

Wow 🤩 I have always wondered about your collection... cause you are basically reviewing everything. So jealous!
I find decluttering videos sooooo relaxing...love this!
Ahhhhh sooooo therapeutic!!!
So when you say “de clutter” do you mean send to Shannon’s house? Because...
😂😂😂🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
😂😂
Yesss lol 😂🤣
Love declutters and your channel!!!! It's funny how the only Too Faced Chocolate Palette I have (Bon Bons) is the one you decluttered...

I love these type of video. Looking forward to watching this. 😊😊😊
Love your vids on the way to work. Great upload time!! Your a morning uploader.
Prata Kid I love the morning uploads too. So good.
D Anthony great for my morning ride !!
I know this was hard for you, it is for me too. My weaknesses are definitely eyeshadow palettes and highlighters! Unfortunately I only have so much space so sometimes declutters are a necessary evil. You did good, I’m proud of you!
Wow I have 3 I can’t imagine having that many 😳
You are most definitely STILL an artist!!!!
Loveeee these videos! So glad you are doing this video! I watched samantha's too! Love you Mel, I hope you have a great day today and you are so amazing!
Wow I love that flamingo palette by violet Voss! I've never seen it before+!
When I was little and my grandma who raised me was still alive and i was living with her I got to take dance classes and did a dance to the Uptown girl😂😂 as soon as you said it I started singing it too!! Lol
What about taking out the shadows you like and putting them in a zpallet?
I’m loving this look
I have the nude pop Kevyn Aucoin palette because of you! 🥰 I love it!
I’ve let go of a few things recently too. I gave a few palettes to friends and if I had any samples or things friends didn’t want - I gave them to a local theater company. It’s nice to make room for new stuff sometimes.
Love declutters; great job!
