I think it's a nice pallet because it has shades for warm and cold skin tones, so I think it's perfect. The blue shade is surprisingly beautiful ✨
sure but especially in the korean beauty industry, that colour palette is a dime a dozen. The pricing is also really audacious considering theres no thought into the packaging or even the colour scheme. it seems like such a thoughtless cash grab
It will only work for warm and cool toned fair skinned people which if you’re darker than this guy or Somi (as a fair chunk of the SK and global population somi is targeting) it’ll either look ashy or be a really expensive eyeshadow quad. Also for a makeup brand the fact they’re only launching one niche product is a choice. It’s giving white label brand deal
dickriding so bad
@@SWAMPMONSTER5000 imma be real... i think the silly drawing on the packaging could be chaeyoung's drawing (from twice) ?? Since I'm they're friends so maybe??
these look WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY nicer than i thought it would. the packaging (box) was very unexpected.
The palette is genuinely so gorgeous, like I've rarely ever seen a highlighter palette with fine particles, and this shimmery that I like. And the fact that it's catered for idols too??? like yes I WANT TO LOOK LIKE A STAR TOOO HELLOO?????
okay buzzed sides, dark hair, and facial hair peeking through !! mascianaaaaa
it is really pretty. i wasnt too surprised with somi coming out with makeup with so many ppl wanting an idols look
Idk why ppl were so pressed abt the pricing. It’s literally on par with most celebrity brands at the moment. It’s not drug store pricing but it’s definitely not luxury brand pricing either. It’s right in the middle. If it’s not in your price range then don’t buy it. That’s all there is to it. The shades are so pretty too. I’m really into pink highlighter at the moment to give me an ethereal moment. So these shades are speaking to me. Good thing I watched your review😮😊
The criticisms I saw was that the packaging looked cheap for the price
@@Brian-wx4ig I mean it’s literally the same packaging as Dior so idk🤷🏻♀️
It’s not the same packaging as Dior lmao 💀. Somi’s looks like the exact same makeup packaging I see on temu/shein/amazon which means her markup is insane considering how cheap those components are to make. For a few dollars more people could spend on a brand that actually has global name recognition if that’s what they’re into (Dior) with more shade options vs. falling for the same name hype with a lesser known non established entity with a niche product
@@LP-ct9nk I own the Dior backstage highlighter palette and it’s literally the same packaging. The only visual differences are the logo and slight design choices. What you’re usually paying for with luxury brands is the quality of the formula and sometimes the packaging. Dior’s highlighter (the actual powder itself) is made in Italy, in which makeup products made in Italy are known for their quality. But luxury brands use “cheap packaging” all the time too. I’ve been collecting makeup for many years, so I have everything from elf to Tom Ford. Most makeup products are made in the same factories too bc about 7 conglomerates own all the makeup brands in the world. Of course each company has its own creative directors and strategic marketing but many products are pretty similar to each other. As a general consumer of makeup and collector what I’m looking for in makeup is ingenuity, quality ingredients, good color payoff, cohesive color stories, cute ass/unique packaging, and good times. It’s fun to collect makeup and wear makeup.
I think that is what Somi was going for here bc of the drawings on the unicarton and the almost pastel shade selection. It says fun and playful to me. The pricing of Somi’s highlighter is not expensive and it’s not cheap, it’s in the middle. It’s up to the consumer whether they want to purchase it depending on various factors. But from what I’ve seen in this video, the quality is there. The highlighters also look like something I’d like bc the powder seems smooth with small glitter particles. They have an almost duochrome reflective sheen to them. They were reminding me of these highlighters I own from Glamlite and Fenty beauty. As someone who knows all the information I know about makeup, it’s seems like ppl are really just fishing for things to hate on Somi for. She can’t catch a break. Girl is just doing what most smart celebrities have done in their career. I honestly think more thought could’ve gone into the marketing and overall look of the packaging for the products bc I don’t associate it with Somi. It seems like her name was just slapped on it. I mean she’s taken the time to pick out the shades and that has meaning behind it but her personality is not shining through it. But overall there really isn’t any issues with the product like it’s been worked up to be.
Honestly it's just that Kbeauty Brands don't go this expensive I think that's why they expected it to be cheaper. Most beauty products in Korea rarely go beyond 25 but seeing as the parent company is a US brand I kinda understand why they came up with that price.
Eddy that cut and colour is IT. So good!
FR suits him so well
Agree🔥
Literally one of the only people I'd trust a review from 🙏🙏
Come from the street interview and now I love your makeup
I love the titles of the videos LMAOO they're all so interesting and fun
the bass @11:39... this one is a winner yall aha. that voice came from deep within along with the mmhmms lolz. i have no idea what drama is happening with Jeon Somi's makeup but i appreciate the review. i think with this quality i could definitely see myself playing around with these colors. dude i always love your insight on other details like comparing pricing and such. you a real one. happy editing Eddy 🎞🎉
This pallette is so beautiful 😭 the pink and blue shades are my favourite!!!
Jeon, SoMi’s highlighter is all over the place and I am glad and happy that you did a review on it, Edward. The highlighter palette is gorgeous! You look great in all 4 shades, Edward! Thank you, thank you for the review. 👏🏻🎨😄🤩👍🏻👏🏻💕🩷💝
Exactly as a makeup lover the pricing on this is NOT over the top as some people wanna push for
the design and artworks are actually made by somi 🥰 the drawing of a girl on the packaging is her first art when she was still a child 🥰 thank you for this review 🫶🏻
OMG i was waiting for someone to try this. I'm so happy you did it
thank you
The review made me want that palette, the way you explain why you like your brushes + the different colours for different purposes is very great to know so thank you for this honest review
Miss fast forward definitely made this palette for you with that shade naming. She thought she was slick 🤣🤣
Omg! Thanks Edward for talking abt brushes and how to use the pallet because I've seen a lot of reviews where they don't do justice to some rlly nice products.
love u
this palette is GORGEOUS, I don't wear makeup often but this has me tempted
the stuff u mentioned abt the pricing at the start is so true. that comparison to that glint highlighter was pretty surprising
I knew you were gonna review her bran so i was waiting for this 💅 i hope you can review more from her brand
it was so helpful to have you explain the brushes and to see the difference in how they apply the same pigment
Looks super cute! I love how it looks the blue in the inner corner of your eyes! It pops really well
Gosh, I just love you and I would love to see more skincare videos!! I know your skincare is really basic, but literally basic skincare, when you dont change much gives the best results... And I could watch it over and over, and you talking during it, aghhhhhhhhhh!!
Omg you look so stunning with this cut😍
I heard about the uproar regarding this launch, but you know I was waiting for Eddy to review it and he came thru. I really like the colors and more into what I like so I might just grab my hand on one if I can. Especially since they are all together in a pallette rather than me fishing for them individually.
this makes me want to buy GLYF even more, all the colours are so pretty !
Somi did a great job!
It looks so good, I normally not into powder highlighters because it always appears dry but wow this is so finely milled it looks like skin but better
I can’t wait for the global release!! 🥰
I love the haircut, I actually like it more like this
This is a beautiful palette! Really like it!
Love your dark hair so so much 😍
Your skin looks amazing 🤩!
uhhhhhhhh really liking the new hairstyle!
I have a feeling that another idol transformation may by in the works - Edward you looked beautiful with these highlighters! :)
OMG Eddy`s skin is GLOWING
I love learning how to use makeup with you Ed! ! Hope one day I can meet you!
Petition for a full interview
i’m not a highlighter girl, but this make me want to buy it too. looks so pretty 😍
Lemme quickly finish off lifting these damn weights and I shall devour in this video after!! 😩
You know it's good when Edward brings in the DEEEEEP voice lol
I loveee your hair!!!
Nooooooo Eddie the 3rd shade suitssss youuuuuu the best
yo your hair looks so darn good! your skin too!!! you look amazing!!!
Yes l like his more tan skin
she's like a lowkey makeup girlie based on the few getting ready vids i've seen. cute if she did this with her mua
Winner winner Chicken Dinner 😊. Looks like a great purchase!!!!! Luv your videos including Bunny & Cherry and Double D!!
I came from that interview video..I don't even do makeup but it was sm fun. Great work!
Glad the pallet is worth the price! Very comparable to other celeb brands but the amount of shades is so nice 💜
this palette is so stunning, I don't usually pay attention to celebrity releases but this one might be worth it
Darlin’, you are GORGEOUS with your natural hair colour! BTW, I was howling while watching the Tik Tok videos…Mr. Man-on-the-Street talking about Korean packages. 😂😂😂 Loved it!!
YES I NEEDED THIS
the shades are so pretty!! unleashia just dropped similar highlighters, would be interesting to see the difference 👀
Wait…why am i so impressed by the highlighters though?
This palette actually looks kinda nice. Might consider checking it out.
Edward where tf are you ??? It’s been two long weeks 😭😭😭
I just bought the Glint highlighter lol and this looks super nice. It’s a bit weird and random but your lips look so cute.
you looks so pretty on this video! and what foundation are you wearing????
Watching this while doing night skincare might be a bad idea cause now I wanna play with my makeup too🥹🥲🫠
Doung the lords work
its so funny how u refer to her as jeon somi the whole time
it's so goodddd
Love your content! Any chance you might consider reviewing the Tirtir red cushion foundation? I can’t trust any other source but it looks sooo good
i think i'm gonna buy this wtf
approved by edward ✅
for the price, i think its really good and it looks super pretty too. knetz LOVE to complain about everything istg
I come here because the viral interview
Me to
Oh this is going to be juicy.
For a celeb multi-pan highlighter product the press is actually not bad. It’s actually about average for upper mid/lower high end tier of products.
Oh honey.. you need to do a full interview lol 😆
Sir do you have a beauty filter on cause ur skin be looking sooo good, I swear those acne scar fillers did wonders
Getttrr it mama
Eddy looks so damn good
i want this palette so bad
Hey gurl 💋, are you going to buy the new violet strawberry rococo limited edition that Flower Knows will be releasing this Monday, April 8? I would love a review from youuu 😩🩷
They are looks so good. I want to buy too
Okay masc eraaaa 🤭
I've seen some drama revolving around her dropping makeup but like...the highlighters are actually super pretty????????
The haircut!!!!
31 Seconds! Never clicked faster! love your videos
Girl what is your hand cream because this skin is smooooooth
I actually use several green highlighters! I'm very fair with green undertones. I wouldn't say it looks NATURAL, but it doesn't look odd either. It looks cyborg-y, y2k-y. Should I upload a look?
Oh yes!!! You should
Your haircut now is so Filipino. Do you remember the 2x3 cut students get here in PH back in the day? 😆
excuse me, but whats ur foundation? it looks fine as hell❤
4:41 Vampire skin? THIS IS THE SKIN OF A KILLER BELLA
The hair looks good on you, what do you ask for when you go to the barber shop?
I'd love to see an all natural nude look for us cool tone girlies.
Man, I want this but how do I get this in the US
Can you please compare it to the dior one
i didnt know Pony worked with Somi, omg I love Pony, my first makeuo artist I came across
tbh i think it's a little expensive for what you;re getting compared to other brands, but it's not terrible. it reminds me A LOT of a cult fav of a few yrs ago, the Sleek makeup highlighter
the hair reminding me of old school edward HAHA
Its a good highlight for western look. Korean might feel this highlight little bit much.
I was a little apprehensive, lookedn cheap but then you did the test at the beginning and I went oooo and then Eddie went oooo and it was basically just ooo ing a long. lol
Not Edward looking like a whole ass ✨MEAL✨ in his dark hair era
Same *l say quietly*
What brush did you use to apply aegyo sal highlight?
i always find it funny how Edward closes one eye every time he applies like anything even when using a lip gloss lmao
You look great btw
I feel they look too similar except the blue one. I wonder if it works on multiple skin tones
Oh honey!
