    Apologies if someone already commented on this - but sometimes palettes are a different formula for stability. The packaging of the palette is different than the single (open/cardboard) versus a sealed container. So they need a different formula for stability/life of the product. That's sometimes the reason the palette seems different than the single, even when a palette has the same shade as a single. Might not be the case here of course.

    Your review on this palette was the one I was most excited about! I initially really wanted this, but I realized it was only the greens I was interested in and if I waited a few months some of my favorite indie makeup brands would probably dupe the greens- and do it better, sounds like! It would be awesome if you posted the dupes you found on IG, btw, to give me a head start!

  • @alexaj9862

    I absolutely LOVE how this look turned out! Stunning work! The colors are so unique! I also agree Gemini (the specific shadow) was a bit trickier to work with. I used a glitter glue/sticky base for that one, and it helped. Besides that, I am really enjoying the palette so far. 💕

    Love that look on you! When I first saw the palette, I was all over it, but really wanted it just for the green shades, so I couldn't quite justify the cost. Then I saw that Sydney Grace posted some close colors on her Instagram so I went for those instead. They should be here any day now! This palette is certainly unique and beautiful, but I don't feel it is a must have. I will see if I can recreate your look with my SG shadows once they get here.

    I love the color selection of this palette, not many are offering greens. I have Coloured Raine's mini palette in Rust & Smokeshow & just recently bought 4 single shadows which gives me something very close to this for much less $$ since I bought the palettes for half off during xmas. CR foiled / shimmer shadows are gorgeous & dont flake & their matte shades are pigmented & blendable. Right now my favorite eyeshadow brand. You might like them.

Also thought it was interesting that you think the natural hair brushes worked well and Michele Wang prefers synthetic for this palette. I am a little sad that you, Kelsee and Michele all agree that this formula isn’t as good as the stacks. I absolutely love the stacks🙁. Maybe they’ll improve the formula on the next release that they’re teasing🤔. Anyway absolutely loved the video can’t wait for the next one.

    • @melthompson2856
      @melthompson2856  6 років тому

      I dunno...they are so close together that I can't see that they would have changed a formula and if they did...to me, that would suggest that they knew the Gemini wasn't that great and the released it anyway. SO..I doubt it lol :)
