#odenseye #perfectworld - Jak na to + styl
This is actually the most helpful review video ever. It takes a lot of effort (and pain) to do live swatches for these many shades and I appreciate your 100% honesty.
Thank you very much! Thankfully my eyelids forgave me eventually but there was a lot of puffiness and whining for a while there.
I am a makeupjustforfun fan and I respect so much your honest review instead of just blowing smoke. Blessings to you Kara!
Thank you! I mean absolutely no disrespect to any of the creators but I didn't want to simply be a hype person, not when there's $35 per palette on the line for people.
I tend to believe there were some constraints put on the creators. In her launch video, Betty Jean said that OE "wanted a warm palette" and she was down with that. Clear indication that they did not have full creative control. However, I watch Amanda (MU Just for Fun) faithfully and can confidently say this is very her. She loves purple and green eyeshadow. She also talked about going back and forth with OE to get each color just right. P.S.: Ooof! Your poor eyes with all of this swatching! Thanks for taking one for the team.
Thank you for the insight into Amanda's typical colour preferences. I suspect that brand had a theme in mind and the creators were able to select shades within that overall theme. Controlled creativity??
@@KaraChapman I guess that's why they call it a collaboration. 😀
@@KaraChapman that's what I think it was. The brand gave them the theme. That's what I gathered from Lauren's reveal. So she kind of had to have blues in a water-themed palette. I wonder how much they got to tweak the shimmer formulas though since a lot of them seem to be lacking - like 2/3 look like they could use more oomph, shimmer, shift, or just SOMETHING special about it. On the reveals I was disappointed to see so many look like "normal" shimmers. I hardly reach for a normal shimmer so those shades won't get used much unless I could top with a more transformative shade and make it more interesting. I dunno. We'll see... I've gotten to think of Oden's Eye as one of thise brands that I will always buy their palettes but not if the quality is seemingly dropping
Favorite review I've seen on these palettes. Eye swatches are my favorite and your commentary while applying is so helpful. 👏👏👏
Thank you! I'm glad that you found the video helpful.
Wow, I am soooo grateful for this very honest and extremely helpful video. I agree that the Battybean palette didn’t quite make me think of Battybean’s typical aesthetic, but she can do wonders with any color story. I was actually just going to buy Lauren’s palette because her description of the shades in her reveal video really spoke to me but after watching this video I think I may skip the whole collection. And my wallet will thank me. 🙌
You are so welcome! I'm happy I was able to help you decide whether to pick anything up or not.
I’ve watched so many videos about this collection, but these eyelid swatches were exactly what I needed to decide. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
I thought that the most genuine colour story was Amanda's. Lauren has been all about neutrals with maybe a pop or colour, and batty beans also doesn't feel like hers...
In any case, I've had similar experience with both mattes and shimmers. Some need a lot of buildup, some are awsome, opaque but blendable. The shimmers sometimes are very sparkly and interesting, but sometimes hard pan soooo easily...
I think that the company needs honest reviews from more people cause right now it feels like a cult.
You get more honest reviews from people who pay for their palettes 😁but Katie Marie gives helpful reviews too. She usually comments on individual shades performance
If they keep me on their PR list after this, I plan to continue doing eye swatch videos of any future OE palettes as well because of how differently shadows within the same "finish family" perform, even within the same palette. (or if I buy them myself too, of course!)
@@KaraChapman If they kick you off their PR list for this review/video I will be side-eyeing tf outta them fr. So I hope they don't and just take the constructive criticism and make their brand & formulas even better.
@@charmedbymeghan I hope so too. I'm certainly not being malicious, just honest. If that gets me booted, then that's simply too bad. I won't trade integrity for product.
I love your view on makeup. Im so sick of all the run dont walk! This was the video I needed to see! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful! I love that the beauty space is starting to move away from never-ending hauls and reviews.
Thank you for doing this! I know you said you liked the mattes, but even some of those seem patchy.
Oh yes, some of them definitely need a lot more effort than others.
I loved seeing each individual color on its own. I was vacillating about whether to get these or not and it's going to be a no for me. Thank you for taking the time to show each color and your frankness about these palettes.
You are so welcome! I'm glad it was helpful!
Thank you for your honest review. I have 3 Odens Eye palettes and I have to say I don’t love their formula. I was beginning to think I was crazy because everyone raves about their quality. I find the shimmers hard pressed and have to work hard to apply them.
Oh it’s the same with me too. Everybody talked ever so good about Odens eye from the creators but all the palettes I got, I not like them at all. The mattes are ok but the shimmers are hard panned and from the wolfs palette there are already dried out. I thought Is just me having a problem but nice to hear it from another person ☺️
@@sternenblick9278 my Wolfe palette shimmers were dry when I got them at release!! I was so disappointed with the bad quality
This makes me feel so reassured, I have a collab palette and the urd palette and everyone raved about them but they were, okay? It was disappointing that I substantially preferred the quality of my bhcosmetics palettes when oe is more expensive
The shimmers in the Urd palette creased badly on me; I decluttered it a long time ago.
The really light duochrome shimmers in these palettes are hard panned already. I've gone in and roughed them up with a spoolie but they're still not as intense as I prefer.
I wanted to thank you for your comments on Reddit. It was really helpful to read your experience as a creator and gave me a different perspective to consider.
You're very welcome. ♥
Best review on these !!! I can always count on you to give a fair and honest review ! Thanks so much
I appreciate that very much! Thank you!
Very helpful video and I really appreciate the honesty. That's one thing that seems to be hard to find when it comes to collaborations because I feel like other youtubers don't want to offend anyone so you don't get a complete review. Finally someone is thorough and honest!
Whoa, what's up with the Sea Talk palette. Odens Eye usually has such nice mattes. Thank you so much for your hard work with this review.
They are actually a mixed bag in several palettes. I have multiple palettes with dry patchy mattes (Wolves, Dragon, Alva II, Nornes II) and hard pan in shimmers I have in all palettes too. I doubt this collection is that different you just usually don't get honest reviews but all hype until later when people actually paid for their palettes. And most people use a palette only for first impressions and you never hear about it again or see it used
I'll come out and say that I don't foresee myself reaching for the Sea Talk palette again except for the neutral shimmers. I will get the most use out of the Flora palette and I'll probably use the Spirit palette a few times for some bright, fun looks in the spring/summer (I did wear it in a fairly recent video before the palettes were announced).
The flora story palette has the prettiest color story. So many earthy tones.
First off, thank you for putting so much work into making this video! It’s so helpful to see all of these eye swatched.
I personally have used some of the OE shadows before, and I gotta say they’ve never really looked like this on me. Maybe I’m just doing something different (I don’t set my eyes) or maybe it’s a texture thing? I’m not sure. The shimmers I have used from them in particular have looked - in my opinion - a lot better than they seem to here. But I don’t know if that’s an inconsistent quality issue, or an eyelid difference, or a preparation difference or what.
I rarely use primer and I never set my eyes, and I always use my finger for shimmers. So it’s definitely a different way of applying. But I love that you’ve shown this way as well because so many people apply eyeshadows this way. And it’s so important to see how everything works with the way each person applies. Because we’re not all going to change our habits for one (or three) palette(s), you know?
Sorry if this is ramble-y. My point is, I think these palettes will still work for me and they way I apply my eyeshadow. But I can definitely see that it may not work for others.
I really, really appreciate the massive effort you put into doing a video like this! Thank you for sharing this with us!!! 💖
Thanks for the feedback! I love when people share their own experiences with a product, especially when it differs from my experience. It just helps anyone else who's reading the comments to gain extra information. I will say, I've used the Flora and Spirit palettes without too much difficulty. The shadows do build up, although some of the shimmers are still too weak for my own preferences, but I've found that I really need to work to get some of the darker mattes to blend out nicely.
The Christmas palettes were much easier to work with in my opinion. These ones had too many hit or miss shades for my liking.
Thank you for that honest review. Even I was not so much happy with the Odens eye palettes in the past (having a lot of hard pan and already dried out shades), I wanted to get Lauren’s and Amanda’s palette but now I am definitely not sure, if I want them at all. 🤷🏻♀️🧐
Same!! I got hard pan in shimmers in all of my older oden's eye after only 2 uses. This is not new at all. It's rather interesting hardly anyone who gets pr ever mentions it. I also have dry dusty mattes in my Judy and Annette palettes and some underwhelming hard to apply crumbly shimmers in all my oden's eye
You are so welcome!
To this point, my guess is that many people who receive PR haven't used the palette a multitude of times by the time they film their review so, in some cases, the hard pan may not yet have developed. just a guess.
It was really helpful to see the eye swatches and arm swatches in such clear lighting. Thank you and love to your poor eyelids! it helps to see the colours in this way to decide if they are something I want or how closely they might match things I already have. You did a wonderful job with this video.
Thank you very much. i'm so glad that you found it helpful.
What a fascinating and helpful video! I've got so many thoughts. For one, I think Amanda's palette looks EXACTLY like what she would create - she had always loved purple and she fell in love with greens this year. She likes colour, but usually a bit muted. I did feel surprised that Batty Beans didn't have more smokiness to it, and Lauren's seems more dramatic that what I usually picture on her. The way they've phrased it in launch videos seems to be "when Oden's Eye approached me to do a blue palette/warm colour palette" which to me sounds like they had some parameters in how their colour story would fit the trip, but got to choose all the colours within. Angie speaks so highlight of working with Oden's Eye, so I trust that these creators also had a lot of input. That said... I know I want Amanda's palette, because it is exactly up my alley. I was torn on if I would buy Lauren Mae's to get free shipping, but now I'm wondering about other items I might pick up instead. What would you recommend from Oden's Eye that woudl equal about $30USD?
I'm sorry I'm late to respond to you. For future reference, their blushes are very nice (but be sure to read the descriptions as some have shimmer and some are matte). They also have some pretty duochrome highlighters if you're into that sort of thing.
Thanks, your videos are really the most helpful in deciding what to buy and how to use it. I appreciate the work you put into them! ❤
Really appreciated seeing each shadow on your eyelids. Very beautiful.
Thank you so much 🙂
I watch all 3 creators and like all 3 for varying reasons. Unless this video changes my mind for some reason, I plan on getting Lauren's and Amanda's palettes. BettyJean's color story is not one that I'll use except for maybe 1 or 2 shades. After hearing your thoughts on the colors that were chosen for each individual's palette, I gotta say that the only one I really question is BettyJean's. Mostly bc of the oranges that are in there. She has said many MANY times that the "warm neutral with a pop of blue" era of palettes turned her off of using orange and up until recently, she very seldom ever used orange in her looks. (I know she put orange in her latest Shroud palette, but it was a Halloween themed collab, so you almost had to expect that it'd be in there in some capacity.) As for Amanda's and Lauren's, theirs look a bit more like something that they would have chosen on their own to some degree. Amanda loves purple and neutrals, and in the past couple of yrs has really developed a deep love for green. As for Lauren, she's always been about sparkly, ethereal, colorful shadows and over the past yr has really gotten more into neutrals.. especially cool-toned taupes. The chartreuse color I've seen her wear a TON. She mostly uses it as an inner corner shade and it looks so lovely on her. (SUPER jealous bc that's a color that I myself can't pull off 😤😂) But bc she used to be only into colorful shadows, but now is into neutrals, I think she wanted to make a palette that was the best of both worlds, if that makes sense. Anyway, if Oden's Eye did influence the selection of shades, I wonder how it was done. I know nothing about the inner workings of the makeup industry, but maybe Oden's Eye gave them a like a pool of shades to choose from and the creators had to build their palettes from that? Idk, but I'd sure be interested to find out! Ok, back to the video!
Oh and real quick, just wanna say THANK YOU KARA for doing eye swatches! I can only imagine how they felt after and the fact that you put your poor eyelids through all of that for us does not go unnoticed! You're such a gem! 💎 Hope you and the family have a great vacation! (Happy belated birthday to Barry!)
Oden's eye clearly already knew the theme of the collection they wanted to do, then choose the creators and worked with them. They had guidelines for the color scheme. Their prior collabs with Judy and Annette were the same. While they didn't detail too much if you watched Judy's video it was clear she was given the theme and color scheme. They obviously handpicked the creators for their specific cultural backgrounds and already had cover art in mind too
@EXOmake_meHorololo ! personally, I don't care who picked the theme or how the packaging looks. And tbh, it would be weird if OE wasn't the one who picked all that. With it being 3 collaborators it needed to be cohesive across the board and if they had let the 3 do their own thing it wouldn't have been. And idk if it's so much as, "pick from these colors" or if it's "this is the theme and vibe, pick colors that remind you of this". Having said that, none of this changes my original statement. The color stories that are picked ARE indicative of the creators.. for the most part.
Thank you for this insight! My guess (and it's just a guess) is that OE had the overall theming in mind and presented that to the creators and then they were able to select the specific shades to fulfill that theme. I could be completely off, but I think that would help to explain Betty-Jean's palette and how different it is from her usual aesthetic.
That is about as comprehensive a review as I think I've ever seen. It can't get much clearer than real time swatches (my fullest sympathy for your burning eyeballs by the time you were done!). Was the hard panning something you experienced across the board with the shimmers or just with certain shades? Even more than sheerness and glitter fall out, I detest a shadow you can't touch for fear of hard pan! Sometimes you gotta get in there to get what you want, dammit!
Annette from Annette's make up Corner also got hard pan with at least 2 of the lighter shimmers. But that isn't new she said herself ... I have hard pan in some of my oden's eye palettes on the light shimmer shades. Happened after just few uses.
@@exomake_mehorololo Thank you for the info!
@@noniefuss it happened to Annette even before swatching. Its usually their really light shifty or more transparent shades. But others can also dry out and get crumbly. Happened to me in almost every palette very quickly. I know it's not just me. Katie Marie does helpful reviews of oden's eye and mentions it
The hardpan showed up in the lightest of the shimmery shadows, the ones with a bit of a shift in them. I've roughed them up with a spoolie and, while that solved the hardpan (or at least it has for now), the shadows themselves still apply too sheerly for my personal liking.
@@KaraChapman Ooooo, good to know!
This is an amazing review! I really need to cut back my spending on makeup, but I was getting all excited and planned to buy all 3 of these palettes. So glad your review convinced me I didn't need them. Just subscribed!
Glad it was helpful! And welcome!!
I couldn’t agree more with your assessment of there palettes. I was really excited when we got the hints of this launch. But I’m not picking any up.
Found your video through a search for oden’s eye and I just want to say thanks for the eye swatches, which are way more helpful than arm swatches! I’m intrigued by the topper shades as they seem like they would be pretty transformative when used with other shadows. I would be curious to see you use these palettes to create some looks and hopefully get some enjoyment from playing with the different colors and finishes. ❤
Thank you for this video! Specifically the part where you said buying these isn’t the only way to show support to them! I feel like I needed that permission to not buy these. I watch and love all of these creators so I was just going to buy every palette on a whim to support. I’m on a low buy and almost broke it for this. But I didn’t. I don’t need these for myself, but I can appreciate the creators for their hard work.😊
You are so welcome! ♥♥
I really appreciate these eye swatches & your HONESTY!!!
Thank you. ♥
Awesome review!! Many thanks for taking the effort 🤞😍nothing is more helpful than eye swatches.
Thank you very much! 30 eye swatches was a bit ambitious, but I think they really helped to show just how these shadows apply straight out of the pan. The arm swatches on their own are a bit misleading; they show what the ultimate potential of each shade is but the live eye swatches show how much effort you'd have to expend to build up to arm swatch opacity.
Thanks to you and your poor eyes for this review! I was looking at Lauren Mae’s palette specifically for those blues, but based on this I’m going to pass on it. I know I could probably get them to work with glitter glue or maybe with mehron, but I just don’t see myself doing that every time I want to wear that palette. And as you mentioned there are other ways we can continue to support her without buying this particular palette.
I'm glad that my video helped you in deciding! One of my favourite, free, ways to support a creator is to mention them in the "leave a message" box that often appears when placing an online order, especially from indie brands. I'll say something like "I saw XYZ using this palette and it really inspired me". It helps to put that creator on the brand's radar and takes 10 seconds of my time.
@@KaraChapman oh I love that tip! I will start doing that. Thank you!
Thank you so much for taking the time to create this video, what a huge effort! Really nice to see ANY eyeshadow formula /palette entirely swatched out & discussed in detail -- especially such a new & hotly discussed release!
You are so welcome!
The odd pricing is probably due to currency conversion?
Good point!
Thank you for being so comprehensive! I'm thinking of buying Betty Jean's palette. I agree it isn't her usual style but it's still fairly unique and colorful.
This video was so useful!! I love the your comments while watching your application. I won’t be buying these because I am really watching what I buy this year. I have so many great palettes to love that I don’t need new ones!
Thanks, Kim! I'm glad that you found it helpful.
Thank you so much for doing eye swatches ❤❤❤
You are so welcome!
That video was so interesting, even though I’m quite worried for your poor eyelids!
I’ve been « struggling » with the idea of buying this collection. Although I love Betty Jean, that colour story didn’t speak to me all that much, but I really like the two other ones. Your review gives me a new perspective on them.
Now with a new dog in the house and the need to be more intentional with my money… it just feels like a have to make better choices.
Thing is… they are launching the same week as the chucky collection from Glamlite and as I’m both a horror and a cool-tone fan… I’ve been craving this collection more. But then I usually love Oden’s eye formulas…
(Keep having a never ending inner fight)
I'm curious to know what you ultimately decided. I feel that the Chucky collection would suit your overall aesthetic more (from what you've described to me over the... months?? years???) but I know that it sold out in a hot second.
@@KaraChapman I’ve ultimately decided to pass on it. I need to buy less makeup and focus on things that really speaks to me… hence why I bought the chucky one. It does indeed fit my aesthetic much more and it made me giddy to see the palette, the packaging, the colours… I got the pre order though because my meeting ran long and I missed out on the launch (all three minutes of it 🙃).
Awesome review, very useful focused eye swatches. Well done!!!
Thank you so much!
I love eye swatches!! I'm sure they are a pain in the butt, but they are so helpful! Thanks 😊
Oh they're a pain alright, just not in the butt. lol
But, I agree, they are very helpful in seeing how the shadows actually apply.
Thank you so much for this review, it's really helpful to see all the colors in action.
I'm not buying new palettes this year (well, I have 1 joker actually) and I don't like Oden's Eye's quality so it's an easy pass for me - but the color stories of Flora Story and Sea Talk are really pretty !
Glad it was helpful!
I am so glad I'm not the only one wondering why Odens Eye shimmers are so inconsistent! They've definitely shown they can make an amazing foiled shimmer so why not just make everything that shiny?? 🥹
I don't have a single palette from a single brand including all shimmer palettes were all shimmers in a palette are the same intense shiny quality. I have over 400 palettes from all the hype brands... Usually there is more than 1 formula and colours that seem more difficult to get right. So I'm not surprised
I get that they may want to make some shadows more "ethereal" and some more full bore shimmery, however, even across the same finish there are inconsistencies and that's what I don't understand. I do think they've improved from their early days, but I think there's still room for improvement.
Such a helpful video!! You’re so funny haha I also do that when I wear a red or purple toned shadow and can’t help but stare at how those shades bring out all the green in my eyes. I think if I ever would choose one it would either be Lauren’s or maybe Amanda’s. But I did get the Hela and both Xmas palettes and I really like the formulas but I find they none of the color stories are something I want to grab often enough, so I mostly use them with other palettes. The multichromes in those palettes are to die for though, but after seeing this and some other reviews on the single shadows, I’m passing on it all. However… I want a couple blushes from the Solmane collection! They are so gorgeous! Love eye swatch videos. Thanks again for making this video! I bet your eyes hurt by the end of this. You have a new subbie❤
Welcome to the Makeup Friends fam! I also really enjoyed the quality of the Christmas and Hela palettes. I wish these palettes were up to the same standard, especially for the sake of the creators who worked so hard on them.
@@KaraChapman Yes! completely agree. I also think it’s interesting that they did 3 collabs in one launch, then Angi by herself, now another 3 creators once again. But it seems like these ladies all had to follow a certain color scheme while Angi’s palette I’m almost positive she had much more creative control than them, if I’m not mistaken. I’m happy for all of the girls of course and it’s super exciting, but I feel bad for them if the quality isn’t the normal awesome OE formula! It still looks workable, just doesn’t bring the normal wow factor.
So I just got these in the mail earlier today! And I only used Amanda's palette so far. I completely understand what people mean by being too hard-pressed or maybe it's that there is too much binder in their shimmers? And that's why they get hard pan more easily or it's harder to pick up. But I have to say for the $30 I paid for each palette - I still think the quality is really good. I am happy with the amount of sparkle in some of the shades and that there is a multichrome too. The mattes blend easily - no real issue there, but I wish there was more pigment in a couple of the lighter shades (like Natasha Denona or Melt but that may be asking a lot lol)... so I'm not mad about my purchase.
... I would like to see them tweak the shimmers some though to make them work a little easier, not so tightly packed and I think if they worked on the formula to have less binder that would make a world of difference too. 🤷♀️ I also noticed that some of their singles had too much binder in them too.
i wish more creators would review individual shadows like you do! there are many palettes with inconsistent formula and as someone who picks her favorite shades in eye palettes, its good to know if that specific shade will be a hit or miss in the palette
As painful as doing 30 eye swatches was, I'm excited to do more videos like this in the future. I find it easier to review this way too as it really shows me how the shadows perform straight out of the palette.
@@KaraChapman its a genius method! maybe for your health, you can limit these reviews to highly coveted palettes, since i know how painful this must have been!
@@martizen And definitely 14 pans or less! lol
@@KaraChapman yes haha!
Thank you so much for sacrificing your eyelids for this video. I appreciate your honest feedback so much, I've been waffling on which or if any of these i might want to buy.
I'm glad that it helped!
Looking at the swatches I have very similar pretty and shiny and sparkly but less dry looking greens like in Amanda's palette in the Revolution Dr Seuss mini palettes. Those minis had some really good shimmers honestly. The mattes are lovely but I actually have few palettes from Clio and Rom&nd full of lavenders and mauves
Thanks for doing this video! It seems like the formula for these palettes isn’t the same as their others. While I love all these creators, I am not sure I am picking up any of these palettes, and I have almost everything Oden’s Eye has released! Their Christmas release was fabulous, as well as their other Legendary Diversa palettes, but these don’t seem to measure up. It makes me sad-I am sure these creators worked hard on these, and they deserved to have better quality.
I totally agree! The quality of the Christmas palettes was great; these are lacking and I feel badly for the creators for that. it's complete out of their control and they are did a great job curating the palettes (even in the case of Betty-Jean's where I didn't think the colour story was very "her", that doesn't mean she didn't create a fun and vibrant palette).
The new Danessa Myricks blushes have orange shades and a matte finish. I really appreciate your review of this palette.
I have one of those blushes currently sitting in my online cart just waiting for me to pull the trigger. lol
Thank you for the eye swatches! And being HONEST! I did buy all 3 palettes - haven't gotten them in my hands yet though. And I could pretty much tell from the reveal videos and swatches that I wasn't going to love most of the shimmers. I've come to expect better from Oden's Eye. But I do usually love their matte formula and I was hoping that they'd be better IRL. This kinda shows me that what I was initially thinking is how it will be. Which is a shame. I am still glad I bought them. But I will definitely be more weary buying OE in the future. I was hoping for their formulas to keep improving but these don't seem as good as the last collab palettes or even the Christmas palettes. Do you find that to be true?
I definitely see a difference between these and the Christmas palettes. Even the Hela palette had better quality. These fall below what I expect of OE. I feel badly for the creators for that as I'm sure that was entirely out of their control. These aren't the worst palettes out there, not by a long shot, but they disappointed me because OE has shown they can do better.
I ended up buying two of the palettes. I got the Christmas palettes and like those. Thanks for posting this. Your voice is so lovely! I'm wondering if the $33.90 price is due to conversion to dollars, maybe?
I love all 3 creators but I don't want to support the brand. I was really on the line deciding to purchase or not, but your video really helped sway me back to the no side. Thank you! 💖💖💖
Oh interesting! I thought the Sea Talk palette was my favourite colour story because I like a neutral crease and a colourful shimmer on the lid. I'm on an eyeshadow no buy this year so I'm not picking up any of them.
One of the things I love most about makeup is how everyone is able to see different pairings even when looking at the same palette. i just love how colours can unlock creativity in different ways.
Wow you just stopped me from buying the sea palette. I had to make myself realize that I was just drawn to the pretty packaging, but a lot of the shadows applied very patchy, there’s no excuse for that when they cost $35.
I appreciate the thorough and honest review. I heard OE is infamous for kicking influencers off their list if they give even slightly negative feedback, so I always was a little bit skeptical whenever I saw the overwhelmingly positive reviews their collections would get.
I'm glad the swatches were helpful.
I hope OE will recognize that I'm not being malicious but if they do remove me from their PR list, so be it. I won't lie for the sake of PR.
Thank you for the eye swatches and honest review!!!!
You are so welcome!
I love Betty Jean and love watching her content but I don't care for the color story in her palette. So I just got the other 2 palettes. The Flora palette is my favorite color story.
I'm underwhelmed by their formula. I have two of their palettes and their pigment needs work.
I have some palettes from them that I really, really like but I'd like to see OE improve their consistency from palette to palette.
The reason for the odd price is because Oden's Eye lists their product prices with tax included.
I watch 2 out of the 3 creators, but I probably won't buy these palettes. I'm not really feeling it. I think the colour pay off is a little disappointing in some of the shadows
I watch all of them and I'm still skipping. I heard OE's formula hardpans so I'd rather just buy Sydney Grace or MAC for the price point.
Absolutely no need to buy even if you love the creators! ♥♥
Thorough and honest! Thank you! Will not be buying they look so disappointing most of them
New subscriber here thank you for this great review ✨🙏 i was gonna pass but found myself browsing for it.. now I’m really sure about my initial thought! 🙂 If you search for a matte orange blush you might wanna look into lethal cosmetics’ “tendril” 😊 I have it myself, don’t use it as much as I would like especially now in the winter season but I loved it through summer ❤
I'm slightly scared about the quality of these palettes, I bought amanda's because I love the colour story and I thought I would get really pigmented mattes and pretty shimmers because that's what everyone says about oden's eye now and insists their quality has gotten better with every palette. But if the quality is like two palettes I've gotten from them in the past, I will be disappointed, I hope that's not the case tho because the colour story is so so beautiful.
The Flora palette is workable. I recommend using a spritz of setting spray after picking the shimmers up on a brush to really boost their intensity. The deepest shade needs building up, but if you put in the effort with it, it does turn out nicely on the eyes.
@@KaraChapman That's reassuring, thank you so much!!
This brand just doesn't do it for me. I do love the esthetic and I totally love the people who take part in the collaborations, etc. I just really think they are always so lack luster. I have the opinion that if I'm gona use colored shadow I want full impact. Others like to build and that's cool. Anyways, I will watch people have fun watching people use them because i gave mine away to my teenage niece.
