    omg I love how everyone here is so underwhelmed but I’m just so excited and this will be my first ND palette when it drops in the UK!!
    This is genuinely the first palette that’s neutral but doesn’t have half the palette made up of crease shades that only work for fairer skin tones, or mattes that just look horrendously ashy or blend together into essentially the same colour on my skin tone, and doesn’t go the complete opposite direction by making the mattes so warm that I’m literally just blending orange onto my lids.
    Genuinely the first neutral palette where I am like all of these shades will work and serve a purpose for me and my tastes !!!

    This is a perfect palette for darker deeper skin. Nothing boring about it. I literally gasped when I opened it. I’m an artist and I need the warmer tones for darker skin. I need browns that won’t go grey and this does that for me on darker skin. I think I’m going to add to the make my own palette using biba and bronze. It would be a dream if she would make a warmer deeper version of biba!

    It’s funny how we all react and think differently. I was excited for this palette too, because even though these shadows are all similar and all shades I probably have - they still remain shades I will wear on a regular basis. There’s a lot of palettes that I look at and love, but then realize I wouldn’t wear a lot of the shades regularly.

    I'm totally amazed that most people are underwhelmed but I'm absolutely excited that this will be a palette that Brown girls will be able too enjoy as much as everyone enjoys Biba without having to exclude shades in the palette because they are too light. Does anybody ever stop and think of how often we have to do that??? I'm thankful and excited about this palette. That rarely happens for us. This could be a somewhat Neutral Palette for us. Love the looks Mel. 🥰😍💖💕

    Thank you for the review and application demos. Warm colors look great with your skin tone. I wish ND had created three face palettes, one each for fair, medium and deep skin tones. This one is best suited for warm-medium skin tones, IMO. I hope ND takes a cue from the obvious popularity of her mini retro and creates a midi retro along with a companion face palette, AND concurrently with an eye and face collection for deep skn tones. Fingers crossed for the fall and winter.

    I actually have both the soft glam palette and this one.
    On first glance they do look so similar BUT the ABH one has more Matts vs. ND which has more shimmers. I think that is the main difference which really makes the ABH one more of a fall palette and the ND a summer one. As she also said though, the ABH also has some of those pink tones with which you can make a berry eye, whereas this one is pure warm brown golden shades.
    As a Latina, who has very dark brown eyes and get even more color when the sun is out, I find this palette PERFECT for everyday looks but also ideal to shimmer things up for the evenings ^^

    I have so many bronze and gold pallets. But I still want it . I like that the cheek creams are a bit stiff. When it’s too soft it moves around . The cheek pallet is stunning.

    Oooh, I have been waiting for this video from you, I have seen it from others, but wanted to see it on your skin tone. Some people are saying it works better on darker skin tone, but I really want it. I just love Natasha Denona shadows!

    Her face palettes are so versatile--I love that you can use them on the eyes, lips, & obviously face. I get a lot of use out of them. So flattering on you & everyone I've seen it on & that I've used them on. Gorgeous Mel! P.S. I couldn't get the Metropolis palette yet, so this is why I'm diving in to the bronze collection & these shades are just my jam. I love her midi size! I hope she curates a true neutral palette in this size at some juncture.

    Bronze is my #1 love eyeshadow shade, but i really don’t see it put together as a bronze theme.. i was initially EXTREMELY EXCITED this will be my first ever ND eye palette😟✨😟✨😟✨

    • @jslilimauve
      @jslilimauve Před 4 lety +4

      Exactly, same here. I love bronze and Im aware of which undertones it may have but this palette has more golds and coppers then bronze. ND is just so repetative, each time its a wasted opportunity of what might have been a great palette...

  • @brandiwilliams2401
    @brandiwilliams2401 Před 4 lety +4

    I really haven't been into warm tones lately either but im so excited for this to come in the mail. I think it will pair well with the mattes in biba 😍 thanks for demo-ing this palette even though you wasnt interested in it mel 🖤🖤🖤

  • @donnal.7366
    @donnal.7366 Před 4 lety

    Mel, thanks for showing me that the bronze highlighter works as a check color! I thought for sure it would be too dark for me but, with a light hand, it looks really good over the cream blush.

  • @SwatchQueen
    @SwatchQueen Před 4 lety +1

    I agree with Kelsie! I love me a boring palette!!!
    Not everyone can wear Metropolis and Sunset Palettes. I love this one. Makeup is a matter of personal preference. :) I have Biba and they are very different palettes.
    Jen Phelps has a swatching video on her swatching channel comparing Anastasia Soft Glam with this palette shes amazing.
    Thanks, Mel for the tutorial!

    I’m so happy about this review, because I was just exited that Natasha Denona came out with another small pallet but listening to this review I realized I don’t actually need it. I just got excited about a new pallet and not this pallet in particular

  • @claudiacanales2662

    @NatashiaB77 Před 4 lety

    I think everyone is all about that JLO bronze glow look. I really love the pallet. I don’t have soft glam or biba and although I probably do have warm tones in other palettes it will be nice to have them in one place. And I love love her cheek/face palettes.

  • @singlehandedbeauty3581

    I appreciate your honesty, Mel. I feel like this is a sexier version of the Too Faced Extra Spicy Gingerbread palette. It's pretty, but I just don't reach for overly warm palettes. I loved the looks you created though.

  • @savxc2011
    @savxc2011 Před 4 lety

    @jamaica72001 Před 4 lety

    I have been picking up so many cool and neutral toned shadows lately that my warm palettes DO need to be updated. I'm not sure this one is it though. I agree that the tones are just too similar if you take out the darks. The cheek palette on the other hand, looks amazing! Thank you!

  • @rachelwilbur9512
    @rachelwilbur9512 Před 4 lety

    I can see where you are coming from 100%. For me, I felt like this palette was a good opportunity for those who don’t have many Natasha Denona palettes to get my hands on these tones in her formula without the 129 price tag. But I can completely see how someone who has Biba and Sunset and Metropolis would not be excited about this one. Thanks for your honest review!

    @nadineF Před 4 lety

    Hi Mel, I have a different experience. I bought the palette and I love it. Now, I don't have a big collection of ND palettes, so I wasn't concerned about having similar colours already. In fact, for someone who doesn't have a ND collection nor will never such collection, the palette gave me a good range of shades and finishes from an expensive brand that I wanted to try.

    @prince-kun Před 4 lety

    I love this color story because I'm medium skin tone and usually palettes have too many light shades (especially light mattes) that I can't use, or look ashy on me. I feel like I can make use of all the colors here.

Your hair looks super cute! 💕 Was waiting for you pr review on this palette because I was going to pass on this one since I had a lot of similar colors and really didn’t feel it was everyday friendly. I am always looking for everyday friendly so I can use my palettes more. Hope you and your hubby are making tot through this time ok. Thinking of you both. ❤️

  • @beautiwishes
    @beautiwishes Před 4 lety

    I was quite excited for this palette! I got it the other day and while I like it I felt like I have done the same looks with other palettes I had so it was a disappointment. You still created beautiful looks even if you were not inspired!

  • @kimberlychelewski7893

    Thank you for the cheek palette tutorial! I've been looking for a good bronze cheek blush/highlighter for a while but was on the fence about this palette as many CZcamsrs with lighter skin found it tricky to work with. But your technique yielded some amazing results!
