Good news! This palette is in stores on Nov 11 as predicted, but will be available online Nov 7 on Sephora's app so you can pick it up during the sale! :) Linked here: rstyle.me/cz-n/g3898zcha9p
that frustrates me that they do this....I have to download an app or pay full price, they do this on purpose to get more people to download the app and I don't do anything financial on my phone so that sucks
Es un bonito maquillaje , pero una lastima; que ya que no tod@s hablamos, ni entendemos tú idioma y a esto se le suma que hablas de mas paletas.😮. Pienso , que al igual que otras compañeras , deberías, de poner una foto; e ir marcando con una foto de la paleta e ir marcando los colores que vas usando en cada paso...Es una crítica constructiva , y creo q te vendría mejor para tener mas seguidores... Un saludo y gracias
When mel created her Retro midi, I ordered all of the shades that i didnt already have and created it. I miss that girl so much! It is so weird to miss someone that you have never met in person, but she was magical, made us feel like we knew her. I feel so badly for her puffin, kids, mom, and fam 💔
Sydney Grace just today released Mel's retro palette bundle she created on their website! Part of the proceeds will go to her family. Amazing how much this one looks like the one she had already created. I think it's wonderful they finally go around to releasing her vision as a bundle. I miss her terribly.
Me too! As soon as I saw her swatches, I was like shut the front door- this is literally perfect 🙌🏼 I absolutely love that her talent and beauty lives on ❤️
Mel was an incredible talent. On top of that she could reach through the screen with her humanity. She was my absolute favourite content creator and it still upsets me that she died at such a young age. It made me realise how short life can be and that you cannot take life for granted. I’m going to be leaving my marital home in a matter of weeks and leaving an intensely unhappy marriage behind. I won’t take living for granted. Thank you for mentioning Mel again. I hope you always will. I agree with other subscribers- Mels selection is better ❤
All the best for you! It only can get better at this point, and you are in the right start point, thinking positively and appreciating your life and happiness :)
as much as i want to get my first natasha denona palette, i fell in love with mel’s version of it when she created it. i was so OVERJOYED when i saw the post from sydney grace on sunday saying that she was going to release mel’s version, so i’m purchasing those on friday, and i’m so glad that some of the money is going to her family. i love mel and i miss her soooo much!!! and yes, mel’s version is soooo much better. 💚💚💚
Ah Jena I feel Mel all around the past couple of days between Sydney Grace and ND! She would just be so excited about all of this glam retro hype. I’m so glad we all keep her so close in our hearts❤️I miss her so and know so many do as well. Thank you for this in depth review. Such a pretty eye look on you! Hope you’re well!
Can't believe how close Mel was, I'm definitely picking this one up. I'd love to purchase the Sydney Grace bundle but shipping to the UK is so expensive so ND Retro glam is a good second.
@@i_jaysmith I agree, definitely not enough depth or "oomph" for me. I'm perfectly happy to spend the extra £££ getting it shipped to the UK in exchange for the SD formula and Mel's colour story ❤️
I just watched Mel's vid a week ago & ordered most of the SG singles that I thought I would wear in Mel's palette & now ND has released the retro glam & SG has released the bundle. Very weird. I do love Mel's colour story much better actually being a green lover & excited to try when they arrive 😍
Oh my Gosh!! Seeing Mel’s version Retro palette makes me want cry!! She really could of been another Makeup creator Icon!!💜🌈💜I have wore one her makeup looks from Pat McGrath Huetopian mothership. It was a pink look with that purple sparkle shade. It’s a stunning look! I’m so inspired to use so many of her simmer shades in crease watching how Mel did them and it works! She had on a beautiful purple pink blazer on matching her eyeshadow. 💜🌈💜 I’m still tempted to get this palette. Sure wish it was during the sale.
Got an email from Sydney Grace today for Mel’s vision. Decided to purchase right away because her family approved. Spending my money where it makes me feel good about helping carry on a beautiful life story and support small business. Thought of you immediately and I can hardly wait for my shades to get here!
Used your link and very, VERY quickly - I ordered Our Mel's🕊🕊🕊 palette. I remember, when I watched Mel's vid, wishing that Sydney Grace would create this palette. I never thought it would happen!! I have no idea when SG put this palette together but I'm soooooooooo grateful to them for doing so. Mel would be squealing with joy right now - I'm a mixture between disbelief, happiness and deep sadness. Who knew, I mean, who knew our Mel would still be giving to us? Sharing her talent and her love with us 😢😢😢 Love you Jena, 💜💙💜💙💜💙💜
I think Sydney offered the bundle after the ND palette have leaked and people were mad about the stealing of Mel's idea. And that's great, i have ordered the bundle ( more beutyful, better swatches and formula+ it contributes Mel's family).
@@dora7511 The ND palette IS a very poor imitation of Mel's. I do see Mel's influence in the ND palette, but it's just nowhere near as interesting as Mel's. I have to say Dora (being honest and non biased), I would've bought Mel's palette over the ND one even if Mel hadn't created it. XXX
I’m going to get Mel’s Sydney Grace bundle. This ND palette is too light for my dark skin. Thank you so much for this review. Mel did it better and I miss her so much! Seems like the makeup community hasn’t been quite the same since. 😢🙏🏾
Great early review and comparisons! Love your eye look, and the puppy is adorable!! Mel would've loved this! I collect Natasha Denona eye shadow palettes but Sydney Grace is a favorite too and her shadows look more pigmented for my complexion, just wish it was in a palette.
So nice of you to remember Mel, I feel it's sad when the passed are quickly forgotten. I know people moved on as does life but to take a moment and remember someone from the past that made an impact on you somehow is always special. Beautiful colors in both pallettes 🌺
Yup, Mel did it better for sure. And missed her intro " Hi Beauties,... " 🥰 Hope she is in a better 😇 place and looks from heavens above from us smiling. 💖💗
If shipping and taxes to Europe weren't kicking my butt, I'd order Mel's bundle from Sydney Grace as I love that it has more cool tones and also deep mattes. She truly created such a stunning colour story.💚 However, the ND will be readily available here so I might just get it. Those wintery greens are calling my name.
The lack of deep mattes is my only criticism of the ND palette, it looks like it'll be chalky on deeper skin tones whereas Mel's bundle has more depth. But I in Australia so like you, it's easier and cheaper overall to pick up the ND palette.
I feel you, I picked 9 of the colours from her bundle that I liked the most and for just 9 shadows the shipping is 24 dollars 🙃And I dont know if I will get a 25% tax on top of that in addition..But I rather spend that money on a palette where I love all the shadows. NDs palette is too light and pastel for mye taste
@@niamh3610 I have been collecting ND palettes since the big 28 pans released. Tbh, I don't find they translate any deeper on the skin than in pan for the most part. But looking at these pics, most of those shades are going to look chalky on people with deeper skin tones. 🤷♀️
You know I had to pick up Mel’s bundle from Sydney Grace yesterday. It’s interesting how close they are in color scheme. I wonder if Natasha was influenced 😁 haha. I’ll probably get Natasha’s as well since they seem like they’ll compliment one another nicely. I know Mel is having a laugh right now ❤. To comment on your interpretation of Natasha’s “Sage,” you’re right, it looks more seafoam green.
Well to be honest, everyone was expecting the Retro palette to be that green and pink color story . . . Because that's what the mini Retro was. That's why Mel and so many others were disappointed.
Omg i saw this palette leaked, and immediately became obsessed. I have the dream and the glam palette already, and this retro glam is for sure coming home to me asap
I just ordered Mel's palette. I remember her reviewing Wayne palette and then days later, I read someone putting that she passed away. I just could not believe it. I just want to thank you all of you guys that upload reviews and some other content. I remember having stress from work and my dad getting sick and videos like yours, Mel's and others kept me distracted from life problems. On my days off, I just keep watching videos.
This reminds me a lot of the ABH Nouveau which I have and love. I did pick up part of the bundle that SG put out and I was lucky because I already had some of those shades.
Most of the "greens" remind me more of mint shades. Like the color of Mint chocolate chip ice cream. Awesome review/tutorial. Very detailed. Thank you. ☺️ I'm torn because I'm not a fan of mint eyeshadow or pastels.
I like Mels better and when she created it initially I grabbed all the singles I could that were available at the time so I will be buying the rest. Miss me some Mel!
This is a beautiful palette, but I picked up the Sydney Grace bundle yesterday, so I’m probably going to pass on this one. Thanks for the review, and good for you for getting this beauty early!
I will be buying this! I have been waiting for this, ever since Natasha announced she'll announce a green/pink version. I wanted to buy the SG shades before but I am from Asia and the shipping and duties will cost me more than twice the price of the ND one. I am so excited to gift this to me for Christmas!
Wow what a beautiful color story. I think the mini retro palette is so gorgeous and I wanted to love it. Sadly, the colors didn't suit my odd olive complexion. The colors disappeared into my eyelids and the shimmer shades looked too icy. I will have to swatch the new retro glam palette and see how those shades look on my skin.
It’s a beautiful palette for sure and I love your look. However as you are showing the palette there are about 5 to 6 shades that I’m not sure would work for my deeper skin tone so I’ll be going into Sephora when it gets there to test it out. I love all my ND palettes but this one I’m not sure about. I didn’t get the pastel palette for the same reason. Thanks for sharing this with us. It’s exciting that you were able to do this.
To me these pastel green shades read more like Mint or Aquamarine than Sage( which is just slighter more Green than Khaki.) But I still like this color story & would like an upgrade from the Venus II. I just popped over to SG & bought Mel's bundle instead.
Jena u aren’t fooling anyone. We all know Harvey goes and fetches the new ND palettes hot off the press and runs back home with them 🤣🐶. So awesome that u have good friends that hook u up! Way to give them a shoutout, and for mentioning Mel’s palette as well. We all love your reviews. Thank u for bringing us all smiles ❤😊
Personally, where I grew up there is a local plant called sage brush that has a light blue/green leaf so for me the sage is spot on. I do really like this palette and might have to get it.
I have wanted Mel’s Tiny Marvels palette for years now since she came out with it but it was always out of stock😭 I can confidently say that I was finally able to purchase it! I cannot wait to receive it and create with it 💜✨ I chose hers over the Natasha Denona one 😄
Thank you so much for a great video. The way you showed the different textures was very helpful. And thank you for talking about Mel. I think so many of us have been thinking of her since this release became known. You are so great Jena, and my new go to makeup channel for reviews and looks. ❤
I think the word you were looking for is "muted" vs. "grungy". Thanks for the shoutout to Mel. I miss her too. There was nobody like her, and nobody can replace her. That said, your channel is great. Keep up the good work. And thanks for the review.💚
Oh Jena it’s gorgeous, i really need this one for sure , your look is gorgeous , thanks for bringing this for bringing this fabulous palette to us my love liz xxxx
Great review, you look gorgeous! Would you please please please do some more looks, I'm so excited to see more about this palette 🤩 thank you for being you ⭐️♥️
I thought this was one of those review before it’s out videos then I saw you actually had the palette! I know this is not the same, but the color story reminds me somewhat of the CP Star Wars 9 pan The Child palette.
I confess I didnt like the pics for this palette from IG but what you showed us today is waaaaay better. I was not going to get this but now I am for sure. Looks so good. I would just change one shade (sage, fringe or palladian) for another pink but nevertheless, I loved it.
This is what I was dreaming when retro palette was been released. Mel bundle is so incredible, but I live in Italy and for me it's more affordable the Natasha palette. I really love this colour story and I'm really happy that on this palette there is just one pan with the cream to powder formula, because I don't love it so much. I wished she put also a pale yellow and a lilac.. These colours remind me a vintage colour story..
I have not stopped thinking about Mel since I saw this being launched. Really since Sydney Grace announced the bundle, which I ordered immediately. My heart doesn’t know how to feel right now. Mel would’ve loved this 😭🤍
I am so jelly you got this palette but so excited to see your review. This palette is my dream palette because I am so pale skinned and have green eyes. I am saving for this one!!@
Retro Glam looks like a lighter and muted than the other shades you compared from ND and Mel’s SG bundle. Honestly Mel’s bundle and Retro Glam would look so pretty together!
I always knew Mel was on point! What she considered superior products are my holy grails and she created the most PERFECT nude lipstick and lipliner with Christian Audette-to this day, still my fav nude lipstick. Not to mention how she captured the perfect orange lipstick as well! I hope and pray her family is well 🙏😭!
I have decided to purchase the Sydney Grace version out of respect for Mel and her family. Thank you for this review though. This palette is special too.
Good news! This palette is in stores on Nov 11 as predicted, but will be available online Nov 7 on Sephora's app so you can pick it up during the sale! :)

same here and would rather support Mel's family with my purchase.
The first thought I had when I saw it was: this is what Mel waited for... I think we will all keep thinking of her when using this palette 💖
Some of the shades are giving me vibes of the Lime Crime Venus II. But the Lime Crime one includes more deep shades and also some coppery browns.
Btw. It is available today so I think you can use the VIP sale discount on it now.
OMG this is stunning. I'm obsessed with anything ND the quality, its in a league of its own
U were the first to show it, n sparked my interest for it. I just picked it up. I also picked up Mel's bundle. I can't wait to get both

I hear you! I’m medium skin toned and I had the same thoughts, esp with the beige and peach shades 🥴 I didn’t get the pastel palette either! Lol
This reminds me of Lime Crime Venus XL 2 that not many people talked about.
Great first shot at this particular review. Congrats to a smaller creator for getting a shot first. Nice look too!🥳
To me these pastel green shades read more like Mint or Aquamarine than Sage( which is just slighter more Green than Khaki.) But I still like this color story & would like an upgrade from the Venus II.
I just popped over to SG & bought Mel's bundle instead.
It reminds me a little of the ABH Nouveau palette.
I take this back!😂Once you swatched all of the colors, I can definitely see how different they are!
This new ND palette reminds me so much of the Lime Crime XL volume 2 palette from a few years ago!!!
This is definitely a winter palette Reminds me of Christmas 🎄🎅🏻🤶🏻❄️☃️🌨
Beautiful both ND and SG. Thank you for the video!!
I want this one and Mel's palette😁😂😉. TFS so soon, I can't wait!!😍

Oh I needed this pallet this morning. Will be getting when it’s available. Nice score.
I wanted this palette when I first heard about it but I bought Mel’s SG palette instead. 🤷🏼♀️
Wow!!! Thanks for the early video!!! This looks like a beauty and is definitely going on my "Need" list
I'm definitely picking it up & I miss mel too. She would be so excited!
I REALLY wasn't planning to buy a new palette, but this is sooooo pretty!
Absolutely stunning Jena💚💚Miss our beautiful Mel🙏Harvey is adorable ❤️
Makes you wonder if ND saw Mel’s and made it, like took inspo. I will prob pick up the ND retro glam but I think Mel did it better ❤
This is like a muted Zendo palette and it is EVERYTHING. Forget Natasha's dream palette, this is mine!
Personally, where I grew up there is a local plant called sage brush that has a light blue/green leaf so for me the sage is spot on. I do really like this palette and might have to get it.

Great review, you look gorgeous! Would you please please please do some more looks, I'm so excited to see more about this palette 🤩 thank you for being you ⭐️♥️
I was screaming when I saw your video! Like many others I saw the leaked video of the palette and so happy it’s a real palette 🎉🎉
I miss Mel so much and wish she were here to review/enjoy this.
What happen to Mel
@@yaritza409ify Unfortunately, she passed away a little over a year ago from a chronic illness.
Beautiful palette! And those colours really suit you!
So excited for this palette!! Thanks Jena
Omg you’re the 1st!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🔥. Yay Jena!
Thank you Casey! ❤️
I’m going to yank one and put in the light pink from Glam. It needs a light pink!
This looks just like the Lime Crime Venus XL 2 palette. I really liked that color story.
Wait what?!?! You have this already Yippeeeeee!!!!!!!!! ❤❤❤
Yes!! Thanks to a lovely friend! ❤️❤️
I thought this was one of those review before it’s out videos then I saw you actually had the palette! I know this is not the same, but the color story reminds me somewhat of the CP Star Wars 9 pan The Child palette.
I confess I didnt like the pics for this palette from IG but what you showed us today is waaaaay better. I was not going to get this but now I am for sure. Looks so good. I would just change one shade (sage, fringe or palladian) for another pink but nevertheless, I loved it.
Beautiful pallette. I will definitely be buying it when it comes to Greece!
This is what I was dreaming when retro palette was been released.
Mel bundle is so incredible, but I live in Italy and for me it's more affordable the Natasha palette.
I really love this colour story and I'm really happy that on this palette there is just one pan with the cream to powder formula, because I don't love it so much.
I wished she put also a pale yellow and a lilac.. These colours remind me a vintage colour story..
I have not stopped thinking about Mel since I saw this being launched. Really since Sydney Grace announced the bundle, which I ordered immediately. My heart doesn’t know how to feel right now. Mel would’ve loved this 😭🤍
I am so jelly you got this palette but so excited to see your review. This palette is my dream palette because I am so pale skinned and have green eyes. I am saving for this one!!@
This was a great review - thank you so much! I really enjoyed the comparisons to other palettes - thank you so much. You have a new subscriber!
I bought the palette that Mel put together since it benefits Eric and the kids. I miss her every day.
Retro Glam looks like a lighter and muted than the other shades you compared from ND and Mel’s SG bundle. Honestly Mel’s bundle and Retro Glam would look so pretty together!
Mel's definitely has more of a peachy vibe with the more neutral shades as well as the stronger green vibes.
I always knew Mel was on point! What she considered superior products are my holy grails and she created the most PERFECT nude lipstick and lipliner with Christian Audette-to this day, still my fav nude lipstick. Not to mention how she captured the perfect orange lipstick as well! I hope and pray her family is well 🙏😭!
I was excited to see your video! Great review ❤️
This is so beautiful and thinking of breaking my no buy just to purchase....I really want this palette 😍
I love ND and have several palettes, but I will be purchasing the SydneyGrace Mel's Bundle instead. ♡
Sooo insane 😳Mel did that like their so similar love it 😍 these sage colors compliment you nicely 💖
I have decided to purchase the Sydney Grace version out of respect for Mel and her family. Thank you for this review though. This palette is special too.
I’m so getting this, right up my alley, but have to agree , Mels version was the best❤
