I hope you all enjoyed the video! I’ve been testing both palettes out for months with the goal of truly helping y’all! Please let me know if you would like to see more dupe videos💚
What a fantastic, in depth comparison! Thank you ❤ Luckily the only difference that matters to me is the $113 I'll save giving me more money to spend on eyeshadows I don't need!
I was really disappointed that I preferred the ND side. 😂🤪
That’s too funny 😂
I usually guess that the eye I think looks better is the more expensive palette. Waiting to see if I'm right.
I was wrong!
Before the demo I thought the right side was ND, but after the demo I guessed the left side was ND, main because of the pigmentation of the dark teal.
This look is super pretty, I actually recreated it yesterday with a bunch of my singles.
Ooh if you post it please tag me I would love to see!! Thank you! 😊
I wasn't sure but as soon as the dark teal went on I knew your Right side was ND, that colour behaved in a very "unusual" way (in that it spread evenly without losing pigmentation) that gave it away. However seeing the final result and considering the price diffrence...🤔
I wouldn't expect a $16 palette to even come close to matching the formula or quality of a highend palette even if they exactly duped the colors & finishes. I heard that ND uses actual crystals in her formula, not glitter or mica & that's probably partly why it's so expensive. But these Alter Ego palettes are a nice way to try a color combo without investing a lot of money. Then if you really like it you can invest in the higher end version. I'm not personally into gold or teal eyeshadow so this was an easy pass for me but I know many people adore this palette & it's their fave ND palette.
The crazy thing is that it’s not 100% the same but considering the price difference they do an amazing job. I was truly shocked. I can’t wait to see what my mom thinks of it now that I’m giving it to her! Thanks for watching even if it’s not colors you’re drawn too 😊
whoohoo i guessed right. I have the alter ego palette and I think the alter ego shades are more opaque than the ND palette IMO. But i do think lime chrome is more reflective than the alter ego version.
Great video! You're one of the only people who seemed much more honest about your preferences with each shade between the two. Other videos with the same concept just kept talking about how good the Alter Ego one was, which I agree it looks good, but I want to know more details on how each shade compares with ND. Again, great video and I can't wait for the comparison video with the Metropolis.
Thank you I’m really happy you feel that way and it was helpful for you! It was very important to me to do a good job 😊
I guessed right. Mostly due to the blending. The look very similar otherwise. I am so curious what blush/highlight you are wearing?! The whole makeup look is bomb!
I’m wearing the Natasha Denona diamond and blush palette in Darya 😊
during the intro i guessed wrong, after the demo i guessed right. my mind-changer was the fallout and the inner corner color!
ahhh the colors are so beautifully vibrant on you! I'm olive toned, so it's a very very neutral "natural" looking palette for me. I'm always envious of how mustards pop on cooler skintones.
I picked the Alter Ego side as my favorite! The shimmers pop just a tad more on that side I thought :)
This was such a good video - and I can't wait for a Metropolis comparison! I still think Metropolis is a stunning palette but I'm not $129 sold. 🤪
Thanks Emily!! 😊
Wow! This eyeshadow look you have going on is amazing! Hit me like a truck from the get go. I’m not even 1 minute in. I’m so glad I found someone that also appreciates the vibrancy of the color green. It’s such a beautiful color. 💚🥰🦚
I know I am super late, but honestly if you want Gold palette vibes and don't want to support "dupe" brands (for obvious reasons), The Tribe palette from Juvia's is a really nice alternative.
Hmm. The initial shade of the ND was more patchy, but they blended out much more smoothly. Definitely less finicky.
This one is definitely my favorite palette from her. I was able to get the sunset and Lila during the sale plus 20% off.. But this Gold one is the one I go to if I want something fast, or if I don't know what look to do. It just looks gorgeous no matter what you do. 🖤
It’s my favorite ND palette too but I need to spend more time with the Metropolis because I really love that color scheme
@@AmyLovesMakeup I saw it in store and didn't win me over. But let us know. Maybe you will convince me!
Yay! I was right for once. That first shade threw me, but that blue solidified it for me.
I guessed wrong, but I can't wait to see what singles you recommend from both this palette and the metropolis palette. I don't think I'll ever be ready to drop Natasha Denona money on a palette knowing I'll never hit pan.
I love Natasha Denona, some of her shimmers have such a beautiful special shift. It’s great that there’s such a good dupe as her prices are definitely not for everyone. I don’t have this palette, I bought the Metropolis though and had to think about that for quite some time. I’m glad the pans in that one are a bit smaller as I’ll never go through so much eyeshadow. Most of my ND collection consists of the regular five pan palettes. The minis are so hard to get here that I just have one and singles are not available, but I’m happy with what I’ve got. I look forward to the single shadow video, there are too many neutral mattes for me to justify the price, so I can’t wait to see if there are some shades that are similar to those very special shimmers.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and I agree the texture is what makes her shadows so special! I’m glad you’re looking forward to the single dupe video ❤️
Gorgeous look... I am amazed at how similar they looked! Bummer that I cannot get Alter Ego in Germany...
Great video. I would love to see the comparison with the metropolis palette. This reminded me of how special the Gold palette is and totally inspired me to pull it out to wear tomorrow. 💚
Ooh yay I’m happy you’re inspired!!
Great video! You eye look is gorgeous. I have the Alter Ego palette I really like it. I've always loved the look of the ND Gold Palette it's just beautiful to me but the price is not so beautiful. So when I saw the Alter Ego Goddess Palette I had to get it.
Thank you! I’m glad you like your goddess palette!
Great review comparison!!! Wish more people compared things like you did 🤩😍
Thank you 😊
Amy! My girl 🤗 Is this the green look I’ve been waiting for ..I think so 😱👏🙌🤩💚 Gorgeous!
I love this. This video made me finally decide that I do need the alter ego palette. I liked some of the colors in it, but I didn't feel it was worth the full price of the natasha palette, even though I love her palettes
EDIT: my alter ego palettes dried out fast and now I'm kicking myself for not buying the original gold palette and the Metropolis palette
I didn’t know Natasha did a 30% off sale. I got my gold palette during a Sephora sale. Your left eye is Natasha.
I had JUST gotten my Alter Ego Sahara (ND Biba) palette in the mail when you posted this! Literally minutes apart lol. I wanted to buy the Goddess palette at the same time but it was sold out :( I REALLY hope they restock it, especially now that you have a code! Natasha Denona will probably never be in my budget, even the thought of spending that much on a palette makes me flinch lol so I'm so glad to find this brand. Thanks for the thorough review, your eye look is beautiful!
I will definitely update when the goddess goes back in stock! Thank you for watching! 😊
Great video Amy, can't wait for the single shadow-comparisons! 💞 (I guess wrong lol 🙈😂)
I can't wait for your dupe video! I NEED a limechrome dupe lol
Just purchased both Natasha Denona dupes using your affiliate code. Great video. Thanks AmyLovesMakeup.👍🏽👏🏾👏🏾👋🏽👋🏽
Thank you!
Why did I sleep on this video until the Alter Ego Goddess palette was out of stock? 🥺 I preferred it throughout and so I guessed wrong lol. Can’t wait to see the singles dupes!
I believe they should be restocking in the upcoming weeks!
This brightened my day way too much lmao 🌞 Thank you!
Such fun! Thank you for the level of detail and effort you put into this. I got it right, but only because the colour and texture of the dark green teal on the Alter Ego side. I hope Alter Ego comes to the UK.
Thank you!! I really hope they ship to you soon! They’re so good It sucks recommending them knowing you can’t get it ):
Please don’t worry about whether a product is available in X or Y country - tracking that would be a full time job! Most brands will expand their reach eventually- the delay helps me hone what I really want before it arrives in the UK. Plus looking forward to something for a while enhances the enjoyment 😀
Thank you so much, Amy! I know this video is a bit old, but I had to justify with myself in purchasing my first full-sized Natasha Denona Gold palette. I am so grateful for this comparison. Have a blessed and safe day. May God bless you and your loved ones.💛
Great, thorough video! I’ve been curious about Alter Ego for ages and I still have my eye on the ND Gold palette (one day), so this is all very relevant to my interests. 👍😘
Yes I spend a lot of time re watching all your videos 💖😍 any chance you could do a basic video and by that I mean like what eyeshadow colors go together,, favorite products from 3 categories like drugstore,, affordable and high end ect.. what colors are more of less for different parts of the year.. like pastels are for spring ect..
you look so stunning in this video!!! the hair makeup top and earrings all suit you so beautifully !
OMG in the swatches i prefer ND but on your eyes I think that the alter ego one is prettier.... what is this sorcery?? XD
It is pretty obvious since the first shade but you did a great job. Lime chrome is a dead giveaway, since it is so much more bright the moment you touched your lid. Love your video as usual 💖
BTW, I think gold palette is the best formula from ND so it is pretty hard to beat it. Plus it is definitely my all time fav palette so I know it really well.
Got it right! The ND side looks very smooth and creamy, the Alter Ego shades are very close but the shimmers have more of a sparkly look and the blend on that deep teal just isn't as smooth.
Nice job!! 😊
Woo hoo! I guessed correctly! The teal "Python" shade was the definite giveaway. Something I noticed when you started with the initial crease color is that the ND side seemed very patchy in application compared to the Alter Ego side which seemed to blend out quite easily. At first, it made me think the ND was the one that blended better. Hmmm. 🤔 Like you, I also prefer the more mustard-toned shade in the Alter Ego palette. 💛💛💛
I guessed right. It was the shade on the inner part of your lid that was smoother and brighter. But.....they are so close on the eye, that I would have no trouble with purchasing the Alter Ego and saving a ton of money. Thank you for doing this comparison ❤
Yes Lime Chrome just hits the light so beautifully! Thanks for watching!
I got it right!!! Thank you some much for the review. I been eye balling the ND palette for a minute.
Thank you for watching!!
I couldn't decide because I thought the teal was more pigmented at first on the left side as I'm looking the video but the shimmers look more beautiful on the right side. And the teals at the end look the same. The Alter Ego is a good dupe
Both eyes look great!
Thanks!
Amy Loves Makeup You’re very welcome. I think you’re very talented and creative.
You explained everything so perfectly😊 Appreciate the time you put into the comparisons. I also have a habit of wiping eyeshadow off my random pjs. A lot of my shirts are stained from it😅 but they're not expensive tops just ones I wear when I sleep so that's why it didn't bother me as much.lol
Thank you!! And yes I’m the worst at that. It’s such a bad habit I almost wipe eyeshadows on nice pants sometimes 😂😂
Hey Amy, I know this is an older video from you but I need to know where you got these earrings? They are STUNNING!!
I guessed wrong. I have a bunch of Alter Ego palettes & love them. I'm not into neutrals but I got this & the Sahara palette anyway because the formula really works for me, I love the packaging, and they're so inexpensive. I'm pretty much in full on collector's mode with them & am fine with it. I have a couple Natasha Denona mini palettes & think they're just okay. In the end I wish I'd spent $25 on some indie shadows rather than the mini Gold palette but... live & learn. 🤣
And I wrote a book there, sorry. 🤪
No need to apologize! I love reading comments and I’m happy you love their formula too!! Im going to film with the Sahara soon!
I guessed right, but man they were pretty similar. You did a gorgeous look by the way👌🏻🖤
I guessed right. You seemed to have to work more with the dupe and the pigments in the Natasha Denona palette, I’ve got to say, were just better pigments-beautiful
I guessed right! That duochrome shade gave the Gold Palette away!
Wow! Awesome video! Worth waiting for. I’m so glad I have the Alter Ego palette. I want to try the look you have on now. Looks completely stunning on you!! 🖤
Thanks Nicole 😊
I got it right! Honestly I couldn't tell the difference on your eyes, I just thought you seemed more confident applying the left hand side so guessed that was ND!
That’s interesting!
These similarities are crazy!
The ND is on your left side ( side with the brush set in background lol 😆) ... time stamp 11:53 🤞
They both look so good! Whatever is on the left is so sparkly & I think that’s what drawn me it..imma sucker for the glittery gorgeous- ness shades .what can I say 🤷🏻♀️ But honestly I’d buy the Alter Ego bc of price & it looks amazing, even not knowing yet what side is for sure ND. , bc they both turned out beautiful & the shades are something I’d wear on a daily. Okay now I get to find out if I’m right or wrong 💁🏻♀️
* I got it wrong 🤦🏻♀️ good job Amy! Honestly I’m happy because I love the Alter Ego is more shimmery on the lid..idk something about it. I’m sure the ND is better though. I love this kinda video & love to see more doll face 🤩🥰😘
** After you doing swatch comparisons and explaining the textures I see why the ND is the winner if you have the money & a sale lol 😆 Her formula just looks & sounds wonderful 🤤
Thank you for sharing your thoughts!! I’m glad you liked the way the Alter Ego looked!
Wow, I'm usually good at picking "fakes" or lower quality out, but I was wrong in this case. Impressive. LOVE the look, too!
Stellar comparison swatches, esp w/ the verbal descs alongside. Still, it seems several of the AE mattes are pretty crappily pigmented, or is that just on arm?
Also, if you don't mind clarifying, are the pans in the AE palette easily interchangeable, or does one risk making marks fiddling w/ them? TIA!
Both sides look great! Beautiful as always!!!
Thank you 😊
Ha! I was right! But I have to say, I kept going back and forth. The thing that made me eventually decide was looking at the completed look. Something about the textures. Plus you mentioned fall out so that was a clue. Other than that, I'd say they really did a good job with that dupe palette. And you did amazing as always :)
Thank you! Normally with both of these palettes I use a glitter glue to stop fallout but the Alter Ego one definitely has more .
@@AmyLovesMakeup understandable :) glitter glue to the rescue every time haha
I love this look on you! ❤️ I crave these palettes so much now 🙈
My song bc of you , every time I listen I think of you ❤️ Fools Gold is such an amazing song 🎶
Haha I had to use it with a video on the gold palette 😂
Before starting, right eye ND. After watching a little, still agree. Crazy, pretty eyelook!
Thank you!
Suoer video! I did have it pegged correctly which eye was which product.I figured it out for certain during the blending of the "Python" shade, for the Alter Ego version needed a second layer and did not blend quite as easily as the other eye. I could only afford to grab the mini Gold palette from Natasha D, lol, but I did get those bespoke green and gold shades. For changing your eyeshadow colours between products or shades, consider stopping by TJMaxx and picking up a colour changer sponge in a can... it should be under $5 USD and I just recently sprung for one for myself, they're great! Stunning eye look with both palettes and I love a good knock-off myself!
I actually do have one of the color changing things but I always end up going back to my pants 😂😂 I need to remember where I put it! Thanks for sharing your thoughts 😊
I will snag the gold palette next year, hope it's around then :c
I guessed right because of the greener tone of the matte dark teal on the Alter Ego side. I have been curious about the Alter Ego formula but haven't purchased anything because I wasn't crazy about Bad Habit Beauty. For the Bad Habit Beauty palettes, I also thought the "deep" mattes were lacking in depth like that "deep" brown, so I was never satisfied with the looks. It looks like that's the case with Alter Ego as well. The Alter Ego shimmers also look looser and like they migrate around more (the middle of the lid shimmer on the Alter Ego side looks like it migrated into the matte teal more than the ND side). Although it is similar to ND Gold, it's a pass for me. Thanks for the comparison!
Yes please do the dupe video😁😁
When you went in with the first shade I guessed wrong, but the teele gave it away then. I think I kinda still prefer the Alter ego one with the finished look!
I guessed right! 🙌
This was so incredibly detailed & helpful! 💕
Love love the eye look you’ve created. I’ve been looking forward to this review. Thanks 🙏🏻
Thank you 💚
I got it right. But I do own the gold palette. Once i saw lime chrome i just knew.
Ha i guessed right! Limechrome on the left side when you turned your head just stole the show. I bought the nd gold at the start of the month and am very happy so far! Just need to try the bluegreens as well!
Ooh I’m happy you’re liking it!!
@@AmyLovesMakeup lime chrome is my life now!
Honestly same It’s the best! 😊
I guessed right yay (or maybe not yay?) I keep thinking I'd like to get the ND gold palette... then I remember this dupe and find their website... then I realise they don't ship to the UK. Hopefully they will soon!
I really hope they ship internationally soon!!
I guessed right from the beginning because of the shine of the inner corner but I wondered while watching you apply if I was wrong based on how the matte blues applied.
Oh so lovely! Thank you for this detailed comparison ❤️
Thank you for watching! ❤️
I never use my alter ego palette because the fallout is just ridiculous. But I also realized I only wanted the greens, so it wasn’t going to be worth the money.
I got it wrong. And I'm happy that I did. Now I just want Alter Ego. Haha
Beautiful look!
Yay! 😊
Me encanta que hagas dupes por es muy bonito poder tener la opcion de comprar maquillaje mas barato para todas personas que no tenemos el dinero no todas persona tienen el dinero y para todas las amantes del maquillaje eso es alluda gracias eson los videos que megusta ver thank you
Gracias por ver este video! La opción de Alter Ego es bien bueno!! 😊
Great video 💟 I haven't gotten to try anything from this brand yet 💜💚💟💛💙 always a like 👍👍
It just looks like the Natasha Denona shadows are just Richer in Color, is that even a word?, Anyway definitely more depth and saturation, it I was a UA-camr I'm sure I would have the Alter ego pallets but because I'm not I just prefer the ND Shadows💜💙💚💛💖
Yeah, I got it right!
Good job!
So far I’m liking the left eye more!
I thought left was ND until you applied lime chrome!
Wow I didn't think I'd need this, thanks for the video. Both palettes kinda give me Subculture vibes, with the greens and that duochrome shade, so I might get it, especially since I prefer the Alter ego side. I guessed it wrong, because of how sparkly the lid shade is, somehow on the ND side it doesn't look as sparkly . Too bad it's out of stock atm, but I'm really tempted to get it along with Sahara.
I can see the subculture vibes a little bit! And yeah I hope they end up restocking soon!
I got it completely wrong! Wow!
I’m going to say your right eye is ND. 🤞🏼... let see they both look good, I like the eye look 🙂
👀👀
Sooooo is this the dupe for lime chrome or something else
I've been hanging out to know
The one I posted on my stories? I showed that it was Vanessa’s Vanity Samba
@@AmyLovesMakeup amazing i brought that one :D
I think your left eye (our right) is the ND!
Whaaaat. I for real thought the Alter Ego side was ND because it looks so textured and interesting... think I prefer how AE looks on the eyes.... And I was going into this biased thinking ND would win
That’s crazy!!
I guessed right I know my palette😊. I didnt purchased the Metropolis one bc I feel that I have that shades in my Gold palette
Good job!
As much as I like my Natasha Denona Lila and Sunset palettes, I don’t think it’s really worth the price for me personally because of my large collection. If I only had like 4 palettes then I’d think it was worth the price for me 100%, but I have like 120. 😳I think looxie has shimmers that are just as good or better than ND. I’ve thought about the gold palette but may just get the dupe. I’ll use it as a tester like you as use it as a tester. I could buy the gold later if I still want it after using the dupe. Thanks for the comparison. I guessed correctly BTW. 🙂
I don’t find Looxi’s formula comparable to the more special Natasha Denona shades but I could see that for the rich metallic ones. I understand. I have a lot of palettes too and I’m trying to declutter a bunch so I don’t feel guilty using my ND and only my ND constantly lol
Amy Loves Makeup I’ll keep that in mind next time I work with one of my ND and see if I notice a difference. Thanks for your perspective. I want to use the Lila palette during the winter. Those dark cool tone purples are wintery too me. ❄️ I’ve already used sunset 🌅 I think the first week of September.
I think whatever size of collection is okay as long as the person is okay with having that many palettes. But I understand not wanting to hold on to ones that don’t interest you any longer. I declutter 2X a year and even have some palettes in my donation box now. I save brand new ones from Boxycharm that I know I won’t use enough of for friends and family gifts or care packages. 🙂📦
Still hoping you will do the dupes with singles video for this palette :)
Wish I could buy it from Europe. Getting it shipped to Italy might cost me as much as the Denona (thank you customs taxes).
Beautiful look btw
My right (your left is ND).
Let's see which it is!
Annnnd... fight!
Whhaaaaattttt that was great. Thanks for saving telling which is which til the end!
You’re welcome!! I love doing that with dupes when I can 😊
I think the right side is AlterEgo and the left is Natasha Denona :)
I managed to guess right but I was far from certain, it was really just the pigmentation of the teal that made me pick that side. The ND palettes I suspect could realistically be sold at $70 and still make a good profit but I wonder if they picked the price point that they did because they want it to be more of a luxury price point to hit that demographic. I can't really blame them because as a business move it makes sense.
Love dupe videos! That Alter Ego palette is beautiful and affordable, thank you for doing this!☺️
Happy you liked it!! 😊
Your right side Natasha denona
i guessed wrong omg 😵
I was wrong! I based my opinion on which eye was ND mostly on how the first mustard shade blended out and looked. The Alter Ego mustard just looks better
The alter ego mustard is really good!! 😊
I think the gold palette is on the right side. (Your left eye, but the right side of the video)
That guess was at the start, but when you were doing your eyeshadow I was convinced I was right. I'm shocked that I was wrong!
Perhaps this is a stupid question: HOW did you get the shadows out to rearrange them? Without destroying the packaging? I can't figure it out 😫🥴
Do you think the Artemis has different shades from the goddes , I received and love the Artemis and have been wanting the goddes and temptress but I just want to make sure the colors are not exactly the same you know. Sorry this is so long. I do own the love and sunrise from Natasha because they were on a sale I bought both for $65 total so I’m obsessed with Natashas palettes but I can’t justify purchasing at that price
