Merit sponsorship!!!! Woot!! 🙌🏼 Congratulations!! I love both formulas of the Merit lipsticks and I have almost all of them. I need to get the newest Ginger shade! It’s right up my alley!
Yesss, we love brands that support the babes that entertain us for free! I’ve been meaning to try merit since they came to the UK and this is the nudge I needed, the new shades of the complexion stick look amazing!
I really appreciate that the sponsor has nothing to do with the content of the rest of the video (like it'd be a little suspicious if your number one sparkle shadow just HAPPENED to be by Merit!) Also I FINALLY got to try the Merit foundation stick recently because they came out with more shades and I agree, it is a lovely formula!
This has my name written all over it! I hope you really enjoy your trip and get to relax with some great people. I will be watching all your uploads while you are away to feed the algorithm dragon 🐉 (and just generally enjoy your content of course!) Also huge congratulations on your sponsorship with Merit!
lithium by urban decay is my favorite eyeshadow of all time. i have finished, not just panned but finished, an entire pan of it and had to buy another one.
Not the x games mode! 😂 That really took me out. I adore a single shadow sm as you know & lately have been really delving into my Clionadh because there's something about the formula! So pretty. I have to point out that the comparison with that brownish shimmer (mocha twilight - I clocked it) is very satiny for that brand in particular. It's a gorgeous base for layering more sparkly toppery shades over! Like ice blink! 😮🤌✨✨
Today's SPONSOR!!!!!!!!!!!! Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!! Great choices btw. I'm just waiting to pan a brown lipstick and a terracotta blush to try the brand! Thanks for this video!!!!
uncontrollable urge to start dusting sparkles on my forearm hairs now…. and forgive me you did a combination a few videos back - merit eye shadow with a sparkle topper. do you remember the combination and/or video I can go back to myself?
Suggestion that might be worth testing before a future video - I think swatching sparkly shadows on the palm of your hand would show them off better in videos. The oils on your hand help shadows stick/swatch better, and the non-flat surface plus more range of motion would make it easier to show the differences and shifts in the sparkles, especially for all the ones with a sheer base.
This is a really good idea! The palms of my hands are pretty regularly flared up with eczema and are flaky, so the stars would have to align on filming and swatching that way!
I'd love to hear your thoughts on blushing lizard from half magic. I see such glowing reviews on social media, but I need the real sparkle connoisseur's opinion
I wish Merit was easily available in Europe. Tom, do you perhaps know, or could you find out through your contacts, if there are any suppliers in Europe? I've googled high and low to find a shop online that sells their products. Would love to try their lip oil and lipsticks.
I have a question about your Phytosurgence shadows: do they get-for lack of a better word-hard pan after using with a finger? I find that after every time I use them, they’re harder pick up the next time and I have to scrape the top off to get any sparkle.
Mine looks like it’s hard panned on top but it’s never stopped me from being able to pick it up with my finger. I do occasionally use a brush and dig into it to use. I wonder if that breaks the hard pan.
@@hautemesstom Yes! That’s what happens: it looks like hard pan but it doesn’t function like hard pan-except I have noticed it does seem less sparkly after a while, but the pigment still picks up on a finger. I bet the brush does mitigate this issue, though… I will try that!

I’m so happy merit is supporting you! I love love their lipsticks and blushes- and you already inspired me to grab 1990! It’s so gorgeous on you!

Oh yesssss we love sparkles!! Also really love the lipsticks I've tried from Merit, I need to try more though.
They’re a very good makeup basics brand!
✨✨ssssparkles!! ✨✨ This was so fun, thank you Tom! 💖💖
Congrats on the sponsorship! I love a relaxing swatch party and seeing comparisons of eyeshadows ❤
Thank you for the comparisons and swatches
it’s the “on X games mode” for me 🤣
Omg congrats on the Merit sponsorship! I’ve been wanting to order from them since forever and i might have to bite the bullet and finally do it now ❤️
I'm curious about the merit foundation... I'm always like "oh I need a cream for when I travel" but I don't travel 😅
Lmao me trying to justify buying any product seemingly designed for travel.

The marble was pattern on the lower left corner looks kinda like a cat
Love Merit!
i think i’ll check out the merit foundation next time i run out of my base makeup! :) looks nice and the new shades look promising
The new fair shades do look really good! I think Silk will still be my best match!

Just merit solo shadow in studio topped with urban decay solstice!
Ooh now I need solstice…Tom you keep inspiring my makeup allowance!!!😂😂😂❤❤❤
❤❤❤❤❤❤ That signature makeup bag looks so cute and the products ✨😮💨
Merit is also on Cate the Great’s prochoice beauty list! Awesome! Unfortunately Urban Decay isn’t!

Just looked this up - wow! looks stunning

I hope you enjoyed it!

I’ll see what I can find out when I get to my hotel later!

@@JillyDreadful I use one from Rephr that’s like flat and super dense if you have anything like that !
