Are the ingredients between the old and new palettes different at all? I'm wondering if the age of the original palettes might cause the shadows to swatch differently.
Oh I wish I had mentioned this in the video! The ingredients are not on the back of the older ones, unfortunatly! But I would guess they are, due to how they feel different. (the ingredients are on the back of the newer ones because they come without a sleeve)
I would be curious about the Alien new formula too. Same question for those new formulations. I am hoping the new alien formula is better as everyone including you raves about those original pallets. This was a great question about BH.
@@AngelicaNyqvist maybe it has a lot to do with how are they pressed, or the amount of pigment (in procent) that they use. Those things make a huge difference!
Spotted in Scotland= for a green scheme and a foggy mystic look Iconic in Iceland =colour way inspired by Aurora borealis Magnificent in Morocco for good terracotta and bright fun pops of colours And for my own city🤓 Mystified in Montréal where we would see the culture shock between French and English cultures clashing together and working in a unique way with a split palette of two complimentary shades 🤔 My puns suck though, I’m sorry 😂😂😂
As a Scot (though living elsewhere ), I love your idea 💙 A set of muted mossy and foresty greens, lavender, autumnal orange and a hint of oyster shell. I'm up for that!
*Exploring in Egypt!!* (much gold, lapis lazuli, different colors of granite, Jade, turquoise) So many different gem stones were brought to Egypt to decorate.. It is a terrific place to go!
I would like to see "Cooling in the caribbean", with sandy yellowish neutrals and pops of teals, turquoise, blues, a very dark navy blue and some greens and mints as well.
Since you're swedish I suggest something like Stunning in Stockholm, with shades of green to remind the forests, blues for the lakes, frosted white for the snow, and some beautiful metallic shades like the aurora borealis... (and now I actually want this palette, please BH Cosmetics !)
Newer… with better quality… girl. That’s pretty sweet, just wish they would have said that on the website Candid in Canada 🇨🇦 and you could do a northern lights themed palette. Or a fall themed one (because we have those colour changing leaves)
With a mid-toned brown called 'Pastel de Nata' 😅 and a dark burgundy red named 'Porto' (vinho do Porto ofc!)🤣 my imagination is taking off, sorry about that!
I don't know why they wouldn't admit that they improved their products SO much without raising the price. It lifts them head and shoulders above their competition.
I'd like to see a "Raving in Reykjavik" or "Rocking in Reykjavik" palette with lots of super sparkly club-going kinds of shades, including a black shade (or other deep matte) with topper shades that could be worn over the deep matte or worn alone to create different looks. I also think the packaging could be cool if they figure out how to combine/contrast the Northern Lights with the colorful lights that are sometimes used in clubs/at concerts.
This is such a great expansion on Kara C's video about the Chicago/Amalfi palette! Perhaps BH was not willing to risk people avoiding their newer palettes because of the 'new formula' tag? I mean, people could assume that the superb formula was having a downgrade? Ofc I have no idea, just speculating
That’s my theory too. Saying it’s “the same” but actually being better is fine. It ensures they don’t scare off any customers that have heard great things about the palettes or had great experiences with the other series.
a seoul one would either be hella neutrals (like korean makeup) or it would probably be stereotype-ish kpop. like anything tokyo related is always stereotyped and boxed into kawaii/decora culture which i generally love, but every single tokyo inspired thing is like that. there's more to tokyo than that. honestly would love to see some african locations tho
@@kyeoptawerk93ah I was thinking more of a palette inspired not just by korean makeup but also taking inspiration from both historical and kpop Korea too. Like with the Tokyo palette it’s can have multiple inspirations and Seoul is a very trendy and modern city with lots of historical landmarks and traditions. I also think African and also Thai inspired palettes would be awesome too 🥰
I would like to see at least one eyeshadow palette inspired by Asian countries, especially Southeast Asia. I would like to offer my hometown Thailand!!! which I have some ideas. The first name is Beaming in Bangkok A yellow leaning towards orange magenta and true purple which mimics sunset tone. And the other one is Posh in Phuket which I would like to see a group of bright blue&green, turquoise tones and bronzy shade. Both is warm palette that i want a opposite of passion is paris and beautiful in Barcelona. I thought it portage how energetic also seductive feeling that Thailand are (but not in these government situation that we in right now T_T). BECAUSE we love a very bright and unique colour which you can saw in our silk that we always made. And Angie you beautiful as always l can't wowed enough in every look you created. Stay Strong Xoxo 💘
i always want my mom's home country (indonesia) in eyeshadow palettes but every time indonesia is in anything, it's always only bali and it's heavily tourist bali at that. i want a true representation of the country including more than just one tourist island.
@@kyeoptawerk93ah Yeah our southeast asia countries is very beautiful. But when talking about the memory of each country we cannot deniable the fact that they only remember just our landmarks of tourist attractions or just use the name of our country try to connect selected colour that brand choose. They never deep dive to the real essence of each place.
"vibing in Vienna" would be a cool toned silvery palette with a pop of red, as I imagine it 🤩 or "gazing in graz" would be a mainly emerald green and earthy toned palette 🤔 bh cosmetics maybe should employ me 😂
This is a much-needed video. I’m so glad you were able to swatch and test the palettes. I held off on bh palettes because I wasn’t that impressed with the Hawaii palette before, but you’re tempting me now lol.
That you for showing the formula change. I've been wanting the Tokyo palette but heard it wasn't the great BH quality so I held off getting it till now.
Hmm- I’ve always been fascinated with Finland for some reason- I don’t hear much about it here in the states- but what what F word would I use… Fascinated in Finland - icy cool tones with lots of duochromes in my head
@@hannakatriina yes! Northern lights inspired would be gorgeous! I’m from Minnesota and sometimes we’re lucky enough to see a whisper of them in our night sky!
Enchanted in Edinburgh or Glowing in Glasgow - Wish they would do a Scotland city as a green palette and make it as good as they did the Paris palette.
Oh..Fun in Florence. With the pink, white grey and green marble and the red roofs, the river Arno (the "silver Arno". - Arno d'argento) and Renaissance paintings as inspo. I should do it with my singles
I would love to see 6 pan minis of the travel series, these palettes are just a little too big for what I like to buy now. How about in Sailing in Santorini, Galavanting in the Galapagos, Magic in Mumbai
I love BH shadows also, but I would absolutely adore it if they would choose colors from the destinations. Like the Tokyo pallet with the beautiful shades of cherry blossoms, mandarin oranges, jades, bamboos, and deep rich colors of the silks. Now that would have been amazing!💜💜💜
I would totally want to know when there’s a difference. I only tried them again after many years in your recommendations. I love the blueberry palette and could clearly see the pigmentation difference when you did that video. It matters for us who enjoy the newer formula weather it’s $10 or $50 - I want to spend my money on what I’m gonna use and enjoy.
It's a million percent easier to break down and recycle without a mirror. Skip the mirror, give me the quality. I'm so blown away by BH since Avo-Toast and Blueberry Muffin.
That bh pastel palette is one of my faves. Its the palette that made me feel like wow I do like pastels. It actually lived on my vanity with my break the rules pallet almost all summer which is saying a lot because I have a lot of palettes.
I'd like them to do a Carusing in Costa Rica. They could do colors like emerald greens and deep blues to reflect the ocean and the rain forest, and the sunken city and rolling hills. They could also have some colors to reflect the volcano there. A Jammin in Jamaica palette could also be great. A tropical mix of colors to reflect the national garden filled with exotic flowers. Cozy in Colorado would be cool! It could reflect skiing in the mountains and the brilliant colors of the sky and nature life there! White, silver, blue and other jewel tones would be great!
Thank you for this video, I was wondering about that! I would love them to do my hometown -- New York! I would love murky blues and greens (ocean), greys, silvers, and a gorgeous black, with maybe one of two colorful pops
I had commented about this a number of weeks ago, I'm so glad someone out there has addressed this because it seemed like something was going on. I don't think I will re purchase any if I'm being honest but I don't have a UA-cam channel and I don't think I could use all the eyeshadow I own on just my two eyeballs in a life time (even if they didn't go out of date lol). Great video xx
The Tokyo one looks like pastel neons, and I'm here for that! BH's photography baffles me, it routinely makes the palettes look darker. I didn't know the LA one was pastel until I saw your review. The packaging on the white plastic with buzzy sayings was cringeworthy to me, but the new Tokyo palette is really pretty. Thanks for this, I might get one or both of those.
I think it's definitely important for content creators and makeup bloggers such as yourself to test the differences and companies NEED to be as truthful as possible about the changes so we don't waste our money! Great video!
Angie, if you buy the new version of the St. Tropez palette please give us some update about the formula. I love the colour selection but the matt shades are just not buildable and pigmented enough especially the darker ones. I'd buy the reformulated version. Thx 😘
before i even get into the vid i have to ask... does anyone else get a small sense of satisfaction when angie ends up posting some vids chronologically? 😂 i just watched the urban decay one yesterday so instantly recognized this eye look LOL
I am going to order Passion in Paris and Trendy in Tokyo. I think it DOES matter that they changed the formula. Especially if it is improved. They should let us know
Omg! I am sooooo glad you did this! I kept looking at the new versions of the palettes wondering if I needed to update the older ones I had , wondering if the new version had the better formulas.
Love me some BH. The ice cream shop pallets are still my favorite. I really love the blueberry and avocado pallets but I got those a while ago. I never noticed they changed the packaging to be honest. I am glad you made this video. I guess the original are OG’s now.
I love the travel series and have almost all of them (don't have Tokoyo or Puerto Rico). I was going to get the Alamfi palette until you gave me a heads up that it was the same as Chicago, which I already own (also watched Kara's video to give her a view). BH just needs to be honest about their changes. Many of us who have been buying from them for years would appreciate it. BH really needs to collab with you, that would be amazing!
I think it does matter when a brand says one thing and is putting out another. It bothers me personally and if I didnt see this video I would have bought amalfi and not realized that I already own it until it was too late. I want to be able to trust my favorite brands to be transparent. I wouldn't have minded if they just said hey check out this reformulation and new look and made it clear. But I do mind the unclear and incorrect information theyre putting out for customers. Im probably going to stop buying from bh until I feel confident in them again. Thank you for all the info and comparisons!
They would be so much better off admitting the formula was improved because the only reason I have not bought any of them is because it says they kept the formula.
Yes I feel like trending in Tokyo the old one is my least favourite palette by Bh. I’m interested in trying the new one. I want a tropical palette from them with more depth. I’m Jamaican so I would love to see a “Jammin’ in Jamaica palette 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
I bought the Smitten in Switzerland palette on a huge sale specifically bc I thought the formula stayed the same and I liked the old packaging on that particular palette better. If I knew it would be an improved formula, I'd have waited for the new one :-/ Still good to know it's changed for the better but they could've just told us.
Thank you so much for making this video, it was really helpful! I’m hoping bh cosmetics has a great Labor Day sale, and I’m planning to order several palettes!
This eye gives me Mardi Gras vibes 💜💚💛 I’m using UA-cam as escapism from Hurricane Ida🌀. Been watching all my favorites because it hurts my heart to think about my home and the devastation. We’re going to have to start all over. So watching Angie do a colorful eye with one of my favorite brands is just what I need. Pray 🙏🏼 for Louisiana!
I think there were a few reasons they made the change. One, could very well be that they found a new manufacturer and the quality just improved. The other thing I noticed is that they got rid of the mirror which means it’s more recyclable, but mostly less expensive. I also think it is probably a lot cheaper to have all the inner pan palette holders be the same (white) instead of with the custom printing that they had on the other palettes. I suspect that they are saving a good chunk of change in the new packaging, which is a win for customers since the quality of the product actually improved. And I think the person who commented about ip may be spot on about the Chicago palette. That may be the same for London too.
This was so good. I've been stuck on BH Cosmetics palettes for the past 2 years. I've bought some items from them before 2 years ago but their items from the last 2 years are some of my favorites in my collection and I have quite a bit. The differences are so interesting. Blessings!
I'm so glad you talked about the Tokyo pallet, I loved the color scheme, but I hated those three colors, so it's definitely on my list to try it again. And how about Snowy in Salt Lake.
I remember the reviews for the Chicago and many critiques were about it not being representative of Chicago at all. Maybe not admitting to a formula change is also somewhat responsible if the change isn’t extremely significant. It keeps people from being wasteful while also preventing people doubting their prior products
Anyone else super stoked about Trendy in Tokyo? I bought the original and was so disappointed that I just decluttered it. I LOVE that they reformulated!
I got my first bh palette today. I was wanting passion in Paris but I found the Switzerland palette in Marshalls so I got that one. I really like the bh color stories and I travel a lot so I like palettes that are versatile. It’s very hard to find the perfect travel palette!
I don't really care where they go next... but I want the LA palette. I think now that good pastel palettes are coming out, pastels are may favorite colorful looks. I duped the vibes of the flower punk palette recently by combining the Juicy Olive palette and Pastel Dreams and... wow. Kaleidos really did something there with a new color story. I don't know why it seemed so odd of a color story to me at first. Pastel is a great transition for darker colors. Which in retrospect makes a lot of sense.
thank you for recommendation, I just bought Lost in Los Angeles after watching your video. Very satisfied with the quality (especially for pastel shadows!amazed !) just a bit inconvenient without a mirror in palette though
Burning in Buenos Aires 🇦🇷 I live there so I would love to see a palette inspired by the city! some cool tones, dark and light blues, yellows and brick shades would look amazing as a palette alltogether 🥰
@@florenciaortega6543 I was thinking about the same thing, but the majority of the palettes' names in the travel series start with the same letter if not the same 2 letters from the city mentioned in them. hence the title! but I love the color story you put together!
Reminds me of the reformulation of ABH subculture which never was made „official“ 🤔 So far I only have the passion in Paris ☺️ (I „blame“ you for that ❤️) but I‘m intrigued to try some more 😄 I‘d like to see something like „grungy in Göteburg“ - blues & yellows from the Swedish flag with some grungy, merky colours ☺️
I wonder why they didn't say they updated to the new formula. I haven't bought any of the old ones since the Switzerland one because the old formula was lackluster. Now that I know, I'll pick up the older palettes with color schemes I like. 💖 Thank you!!
This is so helpful! I love the old switzerland palette but the old tokyo palette was a huge flop. Im glad the improved the formula but I wish they kept the tone of the deep purple because they already have so many burgundy-pinky purple shades. And I wish they said they improved the formula because I definitely would have picked up the new tokyo palette instead of running for the hills when I saw it on sale! Will you be doing a similar type of video with the revamped alien cosmetics palettes?
Yes!!! It's shitty when brands aren't 100% transparent. It's total crap. Thank you so much for your content and for helping us to make informed decisions :)
Rocking in Rio - a vibrant and colorful palette with some sandy/beachy nudes and urban metallics to show the contrast against the big city and the natural side of Rio. Amazing in Amazon - a different take on a tropical color scheme, with rich leaf greens and very deep browns, and some pops of blue and red.
I think the color schemes came from the artwork itself, not necessarily from the feel a location gives you when you hear a name. That's really where the disconnect comes on a couple of these palettes (Hawaii and Puerto Rico, in my opinion). The decision to do that is weird, to say the least. Interesting to hear they changed things, though. I only have some of the newer ones but was interested to hear your thoughts on how they compared to the old ones because I saw some at TJ Maxx the other day. Thanks for the comparison swatches and reviews!
I look at the los Angelas every time but i have the glamlite ice cream palette and i feel they're so similar but i love the quality of bh and the appearance too so like should i or not? Lol
Strange, the new palettes seemed more expensive on beauty bay. I will have to look again. I do really like the look of the new palettes. They should have been upfront about it being different though especially if it's an improved formula "new improved formula" is not a bad thing to advertise. I would love to see some southern African countries or cities because no one does those. I'm from Cape Town so would be amazed to see that. If they did one themed on our plant kingdom, which is the smallest in the world and is incredibly vibrant, then that would be pretty cool.
the only issue is that they didn’t disclose that it was the exact shades but with a completely new name and packaging. other than that, i think it’s awesome that they’ve improved their formula even more. they definitely don’t have the correct color story to the actual name of the palette. i’d love to see a “raving in romania” palette with a super grungy color story. 💚
Swept Away in Santorini!! I know they did a face palette, Glowing in Greece 🇬🇷 (which I do own), but this Greek girl needs an eyeshadow palette to go with it!! 💙🤍💙🤍 Opa!

I think it does matter when a brand says one thing and is putting out another. It bothers me personally and if I didnt see this video I would have bought amalfi and not realized that I already own it until it was too late. I want to be able to trust my favorite brands to be transparent. I wouldn't have minded if they just said hey check out this reformulation and new look and made it clear. But I do mind the unclear and incorrect information theyre putting out for customers. Im probably going to stop buying from bh until I feel confident in them again. Thank you for all the info and comparisons!
Nightlife in New York. 🍎 🗽🚖 A smokey eye palette with pops of metallics.
I just bought the hanging in Hawaii, new version and i am so in love with it. Cant wait to get more of them.
I’ve found one of my festival looks!!! Thank you for the inspiration!
I'm excited!, I've been wanting the Tokyo palette 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
They would be so much better off admitting the formula was improved because the only reason I have not bought any of them is because it says they kept the formula.
Yes I feel like trending in Tokyo the old one is my least favourite palette by Bh. I’m interested in trying the new one. I want a tropical palette from them with more depth. I’m Jamaican so I would love to see a “Jammin’ in Jamaica palette 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
PAINTING IN FLORENCE,
Walking in rome,
Fliyng in Sicily... etc 😊😊
Beautiful angy as always!
Dreaming in Dubai would be cool with a green and brown color story 😍
I bought the Smitten in Switzerland palette on a huge sale specifically bc I thought the formula stayed the same and I liked the old packaging on that particular palette better. If I knew it would be an improved formula, I'd have waited for the new one :-/ Still good to know it's changed for the better but they could've just told us.
Thank you so much for making this video, it was really helpful! I’m hoping bh cosmetics has a great Labor Day sale, and I’m planning to order several palettes!
This eye gives me Mardi Gras vibes
💜💚💛 I’m using UA-cam as escapism from Hurricane Ida🌀. Been watching all my favorites because it hurts my heart to think about my home and the devastation. We’re going to have to start all over. So watching Angie do a colorful eye with one of my favorite brands is just what I need. Pray 🙏🏼 for Louisiana!
Such a great review and breakdown of the palettes! Thank you!🤗💖
I think there were a few reasons they made the change. One, could very well be that they found a new manufacturer and the quality just improved. The other thing I noticed is that they got rid of the mirror which means it’s more recyclable, but mostly less expensive. I also think it is probably a lot cheaper to have all the inner pan palette holders be the same (white) instead of with the custom printing that they had on the other palettes. I suspect that they are saving a good chunk of change in the new packaging, which is a win for customers since the quality of the product actually improved. And I think the person who commented about ip may be spot on about the Chicago palette. That may be the same for London too.
OMG! I have old version tokyo palette and that tempura shade did really perform like "a yellow setting powder". I laughed so hard when you said that.
yeah haha, it's like nothing at all :P
This was so good. I've been stuck on BH Cosmetics palettes for the past 2 years. I've bought some items from them before 2 years ago but their items from the last 2 years are some of my favorites in my collection and I have quite a bit. The differences are so interesting. Blessings!
I have been wondering what was going on and this helped so much!!! Thanks Angie.... you're the best!!💖
Thanks for this video! It’s so helpful. I’ve been eyeing Barcelona but hesitated because it said same formula. Now I’ll pick it up!
I'm so glad you talked about the Tokyo pallet, I loved the color scheme, but I hated those three colors, so it's definitely on my list to try it again. And how about Snowy in Salt Lake.
A "Naughty in Nice" palette with bright Mediterranean blue shades, oranges, terracottas, and maybe some interesting duochromes to set it apart.
Now that is a smart one!
I remember the reviews for the Chicago and many critiques were about it not being representative of Chicago at all. Maybe not admitting to a formula change is also somewhat responsible if the change isn’t extremely significant. It keeps people from being wasteful while also preventing people doubting their prior products
Anyone else super stoked about Trendy in Tokyo? I bought the original and was so disappointed that I just decluttered it. I LOVE that they reformulated!
London was my absolute favorite, now followed by Paris. But I also liked Switzerland and Barcelona.
My city, Extraordinary in Edinburgh, heritage tartan and firework colours! Also can they do Yellowstone one? Imagine!
I got my first bh palette today. I was wanting passion in Paris but I found the Switzerland palette in Marshalls so I got that one. I really like the bh color stories and I travel a lot so I like palettes that are versatile. It’s very hard to find the perfect travel palette!
I don't really care where they go next... but I want the LA palette. I think now that good pastel palettes are coming out, pastels are may favorite colorful looks.
I duped the vibes of the flower punk palette recently by combining the Juicy Olive palette and Pastel Dreams and... wow. Kaleidos really did something there with a new color story. I don't know why it seemed so odd of a color story to me at first. Pastel is a great transition for darker colors. Which in retrospect makes a lot of sense.
Cool in Canada...frosty ices, blues and greens and pink of the Auroras.
I like the old packaging better on the Tokyo one
Just got the Paris one in the mail and waiting to open it when I have time to really enjoy it. Very excited to try this formula and colour scheme 💗
Hope you enjoy it! :D
Love your reviews and analysis.
Such beautiful palettes and colors. I want them all.
thank you for recommendation, I just bought Lost in Los Angeles after watching your video. Very satisfied with the quality (especially for pastel shadows!amazed !) just a bit inconvenient without a mirror in palette though
Next should be "Awesome in Australia" 🤣 I always have to back my country in everything lol
❤
oh sounds pretty :D
@@AngelicaNyqvist do you think I should make a pitch to BH about it? Lol
All shimmer palette called Screaming in Sweden since we know you love a matte! Not entering just commenting 😆
hahahaha! an all matte look called manifesting in mississippi ;) (since I know how much you love manifesting to hehe...)
@@AngelicaNyqvist 😆😅🙈
Burning in Buenos Aires 🇦🇷 I live there so I would love to see a palette inspired by the city! some cool tones, dark and light blues, yellows and brick shades would look amazing as a palette alltogether 🥰
I thought in "Tango in Buenos Aires", with some reds, silver and blacks as well!
@@florenciaortega6543 I was thinking about the same thing, but the majority of the palettes' names in the travel series start with the same letter if not the same 2 letters from the city mentioned in them. hence the title! but I love the color story you put together!
Wow.. I hadn't notice it at all! 😂
You're right! Silly me 😅
Barbecue in bs as! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Reminds me of the reformulation of ABH subculture which never was made „official“ 🤔
So far I only have the passion in Paris ☺️ (I „blame“ you for that ❤️) but I‘m intrigued to try some more 😄
I‘d like to see something like „grungy in Göteburg“ - blues & yellows from the Swedish flag with some grungy, merky colours ☺️
I wonder why they didn't say they updated to the new formula. I haven't bought any of the old ones since the Switzerland one because the old formula was lackluster. Now that I know, I'll pick up the older palettes with color schemes I like. 💖 Thank you!!
I bought the Barcelona one for the same reasons you like it... I would like that one next.
Oh how pretty color combinations!!
Angie, I would like to know if Ace Beauté is already selling all the pallets with the new formula. Also, what are your thoughts on it?
I didn't think Hawaii was that brown.....🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is so helpful! I love the old switzerland palette but the old tokyo palette was a huge flop. Im glad the improved the formula but I wish they kept the tone of the deep purple because they already have so many burgundy-pinky purple shades. And I wish they said they improved the formula because I definitely would have picked up the new tokyo palette instead of running for the hills when I saw it on sale!
Will you be doing a similar type of video with the revamped alien cosmetics palettes?
maybe, not sure about that yet :)
Yes!!! It's shitty when brands aren't 100% transparent. It's total crap. Thank you so much for your content and for helping us to make informed decisions :)
I ❤️ my BH Paris palette. Thanks for the review and recommendation! I'm finding that I reach for my BH palettes more than my others recently.
Rocking in Rio - a vibrant and colorful palette with some sandy/beachy nudes and urban metallics to show the contrast against the big city and the natural side of Rio.
Amazing in Amazon - a different take on a tropical color scheme, with rich leaf greens and very deep browns, and some pops of blue and red.
I think the color schemes came from the artwork itself, not necessarily from the feel a location gives you when you hear a name. That's really where the disconnect comes on a couple of these palettes (Hawaii and Puerto Rico, in my opinion). The decision to do that is weird, to say the least. Interesting to hear they changed things, though. I only have some of the newer ones but was interested to hear your thoughts on how they compared to the old ones because I saw some at TJ Maxx the other day. Thanks for the comparison swatches and reviews!
I look at the los Angelas every time but i have the glamlite ice cream palette and i feel they're so similar but i love the quality of bh and the appearance too so like should i or not? Lol
Strange, the new palettes seemed more expensive on beauty bay. I will have to look again. I do really like the look of the new palettes. They should have been upfront about it being different though especially if it's an improved formula "new improved formula" is not a bad thing to advertise.
I would love to see some southern African countries or cities because no one does those. I'm from Cape Town so would be amazed to see that. If they did one themed on our plant kingdom, which is the smallest in the world and is incredibly vibrant, then that would be pretty cool.
the only issue is that they didn’t disclose that it was the exact shades but with a completely new name and packaging. other than that, i think it’s awesome that they’ve improved their formula even more. they definitely don’t have the correct color story to the actual name of the palette. i’d love to see a “raving in romania” palette with a super grungy color story. 💚
I see they replaced the Glowing in Greece face palette with new packaging too. I loved that palette already.
Swept Away in Santorini!! I know they did a face palette, Glowing in Greece 🇬🇷 (which I do own), but this Greek girl needs an eyeshadow palette to go with it!! 💙🤍💙🤍 Opa!
