As always, an OUTSTANDING & thorough review! Looks GREAT! Once again, THANK YOU for sharing your precious time, talent, & knowledge within all of us! Sending you Hugs & 🙏🏻! 😘
Betty Jean was totally honest and said this could take months so I ordered it and will be happy whenever I get it. I think it will still be another month until I get mine and I can't wait. It was more important to me to support Shroud and especially Betty Jean than to get my order immediately.
I totally get that! 💕 I was (and AM) very happy to support both, and wasn't expecting my order at any particular date. I just wanted to make sure to give all the info.
For the color Derry...you might look at the Power palette from Coloured Raine or the Violets from Juvia’s Place. I don’t have the Bats palette so I am guessing. ❤️
Yay it's Monday! Yes, those shadows were patchy as heck but you were able to work them into a great look. Is that music I hear? 🎵🎶❤ That's a nice treat! And are those additional lashes?! 👁👁 Oh, I see, you're fancy now. 💗 You look great and I appreciate how you are always trying to have something new for us.
Yeah, the swatches were HELLA patchy, but the second they were on my eyes, they packed on like a dream. You just have to pack, not swipe, and all is golden. And OMG you noticed. 😂 I never ever wear fake lashes, but when I do, I love how they elevate the look.
Wow that is dedication to support a fellow RUclipsr and color story. I understand how overwhelmed the brand was with this launch, I agree it could have been handled a little differently with the pre-sale. The colors look amazing, and the eye look came out really nice.
I think brands need to mature and grow enough to the point where they have the manpower and resources to be able to handle demand before collaborating with influencers IMO. This was too much, too soon.
I think you're right, unfortunately. Collabs always bring in heavy traffic, and I think at the end of the day, I just wish they were a bit more prepared. But I am still genuinely happy for both the brand and Beautbean that they had this much success.
@@GlitterFallout Oh yes, I am as well! That palette looks absolutely gorgeous and I wanted to purchase it but it just all became such a mess and I simply did not wanna go through all that.
@@xamyx2205 Fair enough. Granted, Beautbean is a smaller influencer, but still big enough to create a huge demand that can be just too much for a one woman show. 25,000 subscribers is still quite a bit. No shade all to either. I understand that neither anticipated this but it might be a lesson learned for other brands in the future to make sure they have the manpower and resources to handle an influx of orders before considering collaborating with any ingluencer, big or small.
Those colors are not something that I usually go for being pale with blonde hair and blue eyes but that palette is so aesthetically pleasing to the eye that I would love to add to my collection. I just wish it was more commercially available. I love Betty Jean and her content and I totally understand wanting to collab with her fav brand, I just don't think they were the best choice since they are such a small company. I mean PUR and colourpop couldn't handle the Rawbeautykristi stock and sell out way too fast. I think these manufacturers underestimate how popular RUclips has become and the following these influencers have.
Totally nailed this video!!! I do think opening the preorder to the world to keep adding more wasn’t the best choice but I also understand she wanted to make people happy because they were upset... I’m ready for it to be open again I want them shimmers
I agree with you and I loved your video! I am one of those that still patiently waiting to receive my palette. I loved the look you created by the way! 😘
Beautiful look! I think I can dupe those two shades you couldn't with some of my sydney grace single shadows. I can't remember names off the top of my head, but I'm quite certain I have those purples. Regardless, it still is a gorgeous palette with a very unique color story. ❤️❤️❤️
Derry reminds me a lot of the deep purple from ABH Subculture. I didn't buy this palette because I just knew it was going to be a gong show, and I honestly wasn't sure I'd get the most use out of it, even though I do love the colour story and think it's beautiful and unique. I will dupe the vibes on this on for now
BeautBean also has a RUclips channel... Her intro is "Hello, Friends.. It's me, Betty Jean".. That's why the "Hello, Friends" is on the back of the palette.
I adore Betty Jean & knew I was going to have to get this palette however long the wait. My order is in the 6000s as I missed the original pre order (despite being on the site as soon as it released). I’m trying to just put it out of my mind as I think it could be another few months before I get it. It will be a lovely bonus when it gets to me as I’m on a ‘no buy’ this year 💚💜
@@GlitterFallout the arcana is my absolute favorite 😍 I wasn’t sure looking at it online, but the tones of this palette are very unique. The gold in this palette « chalice» is to die for
😂😂, I almost fell off my exercise bike, when you did the tongue thing😂😂. Love the look. I got the palette during the “ 1st” round. Got the confirm and everything. Didn’t get the palette til mid December. ( love & am subscribed to Betty-Jean and was very excited for her). But the whole experience left a bad taste for Shroud and I don’t find their formula my favorite☹️. I go for my Recently Deceased palette over shroud. The vibes are very similar and that particular formula is awesome😊. I’m also not a die hard Melt fan. All this to say that I should’ve listened to my instincts and passed. But the upside is I supported Betty-Jean and I have a palette that has a shadow that has a Stephen King connection😏. Have a great weekend😊.
I love this WHOLE aesthetic with THIS palette as my daughters nick name is Baby Bat. My husband & I also got married on his birthday which is also our favorite holiday...halloween. So it def grabbed my eye immediately!! 😻😻 Great Video...thank you for introducing me to a new brand & getting into such great detail.
Omg so cute what an awesome nickname as far as the company I highly recommend them their eyeshadow quality is amazing I own the creepy cute palette and I’m obsessed with it also Betty Jean has all of their palettes and has done looks on her channel on all of them her channel is beautbean
@@mamadebbeauty4118 thank you so much doll!! Im def going to have to check it out!! Thats our WHOLE energy & I'm a sucker for unique eyeshadow palettes...especially ones that remind me of my BABY BAT!! Its funny cuz for Halloween I got shirts made instead of Baby Shark I did Baby/Mama/Dada/Brother Bat Doo Doo Doo so that was our costumes...now this is my WHOLE Bat Fam. Even her baby bro I'm preggers with we're calling itty bitty bat for now 😂😂🦇🦇
@@GorgeouslyGruesomeSFX omg that’s the freaking cutest! I love it we over here are the skeleton crew lol my daughter I’ve called my little bones or skelly baby forever lol and for Halloween a couple of years I was mommy skeleton and she was baby skeleton and daddy was of course big daddy skeleton haha so cool 💜💜💀💀
I got an update email from Shroud this past week, with the last order number to ship. It looked like my order and I got sooo excited. Went to check my order number and it was like 4263 or something and mine was like 4264...🤦🏾♀️. Definitely agree with you about the ordering process, and I knew it going in I guess so here we are lol, but don’t think I’ll order another collab again. Great vid as usual!
AGGGH! That's so frustrating that your order number is SO CLOSE. I hope you get yours soon! And I agree with you - I knew going in that it was going to take a while, but....
I ordered mine on the fourth also and it’s being delivered today! I’m so excited! Love Betty Jean and this palette just speaks to me and it was so exciting because it is different and unique I cannot wait to play with it I haven’t been this excited in a long time over an eyeshadow palette lol lol I’m a huge fan of the company and love their products I love the look you came up with 💜💜
@@GlitterFallout I definitely will but I do love their eyeshadow formula I have their creepy cute palette and I’m obsessed with it lol when they are in the new shop and up and running I need to get the divinity palette lol I kept waiting on it and saying I’ll get it eventually so now that’s my next purchase from them lol lol I’m looking forward to seeing what other looks you’ll come up with on the Betty Jean palette 💜💜💜💜
FYI the inner corner was beautiful. Radiated. I'm one whose order # is in the 6000 and I will say when I wasn't getting updates, I emailed Shroud to check on status and Chloe emailed back right away and she made sure I would get updates going forward since I wasn't getting a newsletter she sends out. While it wasn't perfect; I wanted to support Betty Jean and I'll consider it an anniversary gift if i get it in April
Love these deep dive videos! I think the closest dupe I have for Derry is in the Marvelous Mauves palette from Dose of Colors 🤔 I know I have a single from Colourpop that's pretty darn close too, but I can't recall the name. Oh well. Thanks for the review, been waiting for your thoughts 💜
Great review and first impressions! The final look you came up with is GORGEOUS! 😍 I personally have no dupes for anything in this palette, as I don't wear bold colours myself (though I love them on others!). Glad you ended up being really pleased with this palette, especially considering the ordering and shipping issues. Looking forward to seeing other looks you come up with these cool colours! 💙💜💚
So I did the same thing u did w the palette launch and got mine this weekend. Its definitely worth the wait. In terms of the wait, I personally would rather order and wait a few months than try to keep catching small restocks but I know everyone is different. Last year I ordered clionadh in January and then pandemic hit and I didn't get my product until August. Now THAT was a wait.
Woohoo! So glad yours came. And that's an interesting point - I'm not sure which I prefer as to waiting for a restock or not. Actually, I think I personally prefer restocks, because at least then you have an idea of when you might receive it. But I totally understand both sides of that one. And OMG 8 months?! See, Clionadh looks STUNNING, but I couldn't wait that long. I'm an impatient b*tch. 😂
@@GlitterFallout they just did their first sale where products were already made and ready to go so I stocked up on that sale. My video on this palette is coming Friday to my channel. Would love for you to check it out! Stay safe.
Gotdammm this look is fire 🔥 The bottom left shade (I don’t think it has a name?) in The Violets by Juvia’s Place might be a dupe for the light purple but it definitely doesn’t have the gold fleck.
I won't get my palette for a while yet (my order # is still 1000+ from the one they claim to have reached in their last email update) but I think JD Glow's Galaxy shadow "Plum" might be a pretty good dupe for Apparition. I mainly hope that this was a quality lesson in choice of vocabulary for other brands facing similar situations in future - I think if they had said "we will have an extremely limited quantity of palettes available for sale at X time" they would not have gotten the backlash they did from saying it was a "presale" which gave people the impression that they would be able to place their order so that the brand would then have the resources to make the palettes. I also think it's a strange business tactic that none of the creators I follow who were told they were getting the palette in PR have received it yet.
OH MY GOD YES. I don't own it, but Plum from JD Glow looks like an exact dupe - thank you so much! And I 150% agree with you. I think that yes, there were a few jerks who were just raging all over the place, but I think that most of us just wanted better communication overall.
I got my shipping notice last week with the last update 5 days ago, so I'm hoping to see it any day now. I know a lot of people have gotten it without any real tracking movement, so I'm hoping that's the case for me.
I had the same experience: on right at launch time, put my info in to check out, and no luck getting a palette. I ordered mine a few hours after they switched to “open pre-sale” and it just “shipped” on January 18th. Unfortunately, it’s been sitting in the shipped status at their local post office and has not moved in a week. I’m hoping to receive it by Valentine’s Day, but I won’t hold my breath. I don’t blame any one person for the disorder, and in the grander scheme of everything that went on in 2020 and now 2021, it’s an eyeshadow palette, a lot worse has gone on this world...but I’d be lying if I didn’t say I wasn’t disappointed.
THIS THIS THIS. In the grand scheme of 2020, getting an eyeshadow palette on time should be the least of our worries, but we are allowed to be a bit disappointed in the whole process.
@@GlitterFallout my pleasure! Thanks for your thoughtful and honest review. I also love my palette and I'm happy for Betty-Jean, but I have reservations with how the brand is run and won't be buying from Shroud again.
You are hilarious and an incredible story teller. You should consider stand up comedy! 🤣I’ve been really enjoying. your videos. Thanks for making me laugh.
Hi Linda. I was able to order within 45 seconds! This presale was supposed to begin shipping October 12th. I received my palette November 24th! I feel that regardless of the unexpected interest, the first wave should have been ready to go on the 12th as stated! What came later should have had no bearing on the initial preparedness. Am I happy to own it....yes. Will I order from the brand again....probably not.
Woohoo! I'm so impressed with anyone who had that amount of speed to get it in those 45 seconds. haha! And wow - 6 weeks is quite a long time. I agree that I wish the palettes had been premade and ready to go. But I agree that I'm super happy to own the palette!
I got mine in the first 45 seconds/was in initial pre-order group, and it def took longer than a month to receive my palette. I do love the palette though!
I probably won't purchase it. Not because I don't like it. I'm drowning in palettes over here lol. I think hubs would kill me if I ordered another one!
I’m curious to know if my give me glow shadow Spring Fling is a dupe for Sam in this palette. My order is in the 5000s though so I think I’m going to be waiting a while before I find out!😂
Hi. I love the colours but I'm not getting the palete, I'm from Portugal and if it took so long for you to get it, I can't imagine how long would it take to get here In Europe. I love Lethal Cosmetics and they have some colours that are similar to those in the palete, I already have a palete from them, I'll check them out and make a palete with the same type of colour scheme! Love you honney🙂
I totally understand. International shipping takes so long as it is. Boo. I keep hearing wonderful things about Lethal Cosmetics, too. And thank you so much for the sweet words, Eva! 💕
I’m still waiting for my palette to ship. The label was created on December 17th but it hasn’t moved from their place. I’m annoyed, I tried to contact her to see if it fell or anything. It appears that the others in the batch that were sent out got to the people. 🤷🏻♀️
Hmm....that's really frustrating. Mine definitely had a label put on it a full eight days before it started tracking, but over a month? That's not acceptable.
Adore a price per gram break down, adore BeautJean, always willing to wait, knowingly, for an indie product. Dupe thoughts ~~ my take on Shroud vs Lethal , cause no one asked~~ having never had either in my swatchy reality fingers ~~~ all virtual thoughts, to one day be "reality".....maybe. I am Lethal duping because I am a bit obsessed about not having any Lethal shadows. Shroud:Lethal cosmetics: handbook= vertex spooky= altitude addams= petrichor sam= celestial x cryptic trapa ( the one that breaks my mustard ♥) = runway x esteem zero= synth ~~so close? derry= deceit, or perhaps: Xtreme aubergine: PM Mothership V grim= Ascension or Equilibrium ~~ your pop o' blue gorgeous Linda, as always!!
I wished you used the spooky shade, It's so patchy and unusable on my eyes. I'm so disappointed because all the reviews omit that fact, I wish I knew it before buying it, I bought it after de restock and it arrived quick.
I admit that Spooky is one shade I have to work at to make it work for me. I like to use a tacky base (like the NYX Jumbo Eyeshadow Pencil in Milk) and that really helps it to stick!
@@GlitterFallout That was the only shade I used, I was so disappointed. I'll try the others but I honestly lost my interest in the palette and the brand
I dont know when people say it could have been handled better i wonder how exactly it could have been handled better no matter what they did people were gonna bitch in my opinion no one can know what was within her realm of possibilities to do so im not gonna try to tell someone how to run their busness in my opinion u want it get it u dont wanna wait just dont get it but thats just me and my stance .🤷♀️
And I totally get that point of view! 💕. I would have just preferred more communication in the beginning. But at the end of the day, like I mentioned, I’m thrilled for both BEAUTBEAN and Shroud and I adore this palette. 💕
As far as Leaping Bunny is concerned, from my understanding you just need to promise to be cruelty free to get on the list. So you could "pinky swear" you are going to be cruelty free, then just not be? So Leaping Bunny doesn't really mean squat? Or do you have to actually prove that you are cruelty free and they are just calling it "promising"? If someone knows their policy could you please let me know, thank you!!!!
So PETA is more of the "pinky-swear, we promise we're cruelty free" certification. Leaping Bunny makes companies go through a much more rigorous process to be certified. www.crueltyfreeinternational.org/what-we-do/corporate-partnerships/leaping-bunny-programme

The bottom left shade (I don’t think it has a name?) in The Violets by Juvia’s Place might be a dupe for the light purple but it definitely doesn’t have the gold fleck.
I’m waiting for mine and it’s driving me crazy. It looks amazing! I can’t wait!
You'll have to come back and let me know how you like it!
I won't get my palette for a while yet (my order # is still 1000+ from the one they claim to have reached in their last email update) but I think JD Glow's Galaxy shadow "Plum" might be a pretty good dupe for Apparition.
I mainly hope that this was a quality lesson in choice of vocabulary for other brands facing similar situations in future - I think if they had said "we will have an extremely limited quantity of palettes available for sale at X time" they would not have gotten the backlash they did from saying it was a "presale" which gave people the impression that they would be able to place their order so that the brand would then have the resources to make the palettes. I also think it's a strange business tactic that none of the creators I follow who were told they were getting the palette in PR have received it yet.
OH MY GOD YES. I don't own it, but Plum from JD Glow looks like an exact dupe - thank you so much!
And I 150% agree with you. I think that yes, there were a few jerks who were just raging all over the place, but I think that most of us just wanted better communication overall.
I got my shipping notice last week with the last update 5 days ago, so I'm hoping to see it any day now. I know a lot of people have gotten it without any real tracking movement, so I'm hoping that's the case for me.
Here's hoping!! Mine didn't start tracking until eight days after I got the notice it had "shipped", so you never know.
💜 💜 💜 the look you came up with is gorgeous!
Thank you so much, Melissa!
That palette is absolutely beautiful. I would love to purchase it.
It really is so unique!
I had the same experience: on right at launch time, put my info in to check out, and no luck getting a palette. I ordered mine a few hours after they switched to “open pre-sale” and it just “shipped” on January 18th. Unfortunately, it’s been sitting in the shipped status at their local post office and has not moved in a week. I’m hoping to receive it by Valentine’s Day, but I won’t hold my breath. I don’t blame any one person for the disorder, and in the grander scheme of everything that went on in 2020 and now 2021, it’s an eyeshadow palette, a lot worse has gone on this world...but I’d be lying if I didn’t say I wasn’t disappointed.
THIS THIS THIS. In the grand scheme of 2020, getting an eyeshadow palette on time should be the least of our worries, but we are allowed to be a bit disappointed in the whole process.
i just got my palette like 3 days ago as well.
So great! How are you liking it?
Love you! Deranged bunny rabbit and I love it! You are a blast!
haha! Thank you so much, Robin!
The closest match I have to Derry is the Melt Cosmetics Muerte palette shade Velorio, but Velorio has a slightly redder undertone.
You're so right. Venorio is definitely close, but a bit redder. Thank you!
@@GlitterFallout my pleasure! Thanks for your thoughtful and honest review. I also love my palette and I'm happy for Betty-Jean, but I have reservations with how the brand is run and won't be buying from Shroud again.
Can't wait to hear your thoughts...I had ordered this and then canceled it bc I'm impatient and needed the $ more for Christmas. But I still want it 🤣
I so don't blame you. I know that a lot of people canceled their orders which I totally get.
Didn't try to buy this one, feeling better about that decision.
You are hilarious and an incredible story teller. You should consider stand up comedy! 🤣I’ve been really enjoying. your videos. Thanks for making me laugh.
Aw, thank you so much, Heather!
Hi Linda. I was able to order within 45 seconds! This presale was supposed to begin shipping October 12th. I received my palette November 24th! I feel that regardless of the unexpected interest, the first wave should have been ready to go on the 12th as stated! What came later should have had no bearing on the initial preparedness.
Am I happy to own it....yes. Will I order from the brand again....probably not.
Woohoo! I'm so impressed with anyone who had that amount of speed to get it in those 45 seconds. haha! And wow - 6 weeks is quite a long time. I agree that I wish the palettes had been premade and ready to go. But I agree that I'm super happy to own the palette!
I got mine in the first 45 seconds/was in initial pre-order group, and it def took longer than a month to receive my palette. I do love the palette though!
Oh wow, you were FAST! Congrats! That's such a shame that it took longer than a month though. Ooof.
I have a possible dupe for Derry: loveparade from nomad berlin underground palette
That's a super cute palette!
I probably won't purchase it. Not because I don't like it. I'm drowning in palettes over here lol. I think hubs would kill me if I ordered another one!
haha! I think we're all drowning in palettes at this point. 😂
@@GlitterFallout damn pandemics and online sales!!!! LOL
I’m curious to know if my give me glow shadow Spring Fling is a dupe for Sam in this palette. My order is in the 5000s though so I think I’m going to be waiting a while before I find out!😂
I just looked it up, and they look SO familiar! Once you get your palette, I'd love to know!
Hi. I love the colours but I'm not getting the palete, I'm from Portugal and if it took so long for you to get it, I can't imagine how long would it take to get here In Europe. I love Lethal Cosmetics and they have some colours that are similar to those in the palete, I already have a palete from them, I'll check them out and make a palete with the same type of colour scheme! Love you honney🙂
I totally understand. International shipping takes so long as it is. Boo. I keep hearing wonderful things about Lethal Cosmetics, too. And thank you so much for the sweet words, Eva! 💕
I'm still waiting mine, coming soon😍
Woohoo! Hope you love it!
Thank you for this! I'm still waiting for mine #6289 😂
I think another dupe for ADDAMS can be found in Colourpop’s new teal Animal Crossing palette
YES! Those look so similar!
I’m still waiting for my palette to ship. The label was created on December 17th but it hasn’t moved from their place. I’m annoyed, I tried to contact her to see if it fell or anything. It appears that the others in the batch that were sent out got to the people. 🤷🏻♀️
Hmm....that's really frustrating. Mine definitely had a label put on it a full eight days before it started tracking, but over a month? That's not acceptable.
Beautiful
Thank you, Aundrea!
Adore a price per gram break down, adore BeautJean, always willing to wait, knowingly, for an indie product.
Dupe thoughts ~~ my take on Shroud vs Lethal , cause no one asked~~ having never had either in my swatchy reality fingers ~~~ all virtual thoughts, to one day be "reality".....maybe. I am Lethal duping because I am a bit obsessed about not having any Lethal shadows.
Shroud:Lethal cosmetics:
handbook= vertex
spooky= altitude
addams= petrichor
sam= celestial x cryptic
trapa ( the one that breaks my mustard ♥) = runway x esteem
zero= synth ~~so close?
derry= deceit, or perhaps: Xtreme aubergine: PM Mothership V
grim= Ascension or Equilibrium ~~ your pop o' blue
gorgeous Linda, as always!!
Thank you!! I still have yet to try Lethal Cosmetics somehow, but that's so good to know that there are so many dupes!
you look adorable
I feel like this keeps happening to indie brands and folks don't learn - never do a pre-order with no limits or you are fucking yourself and hard!
And yes..... :P....I DO want to touch it..... :P.............together.... :P (LOLLLL, I don't know why, but that cracked me up for some reason!)
We'll all touch it. Together. 😂
Did they ever say how many units they actually sold?
I don't believe they ever released that info, but I could be wrong.
Melt's She's in Parties doesn't have a dupe for Derry? CP must have a dupe for Sam.
So I don't personally own She's in Parties, but it looks like the one shade (Meanstreak) might be close, but I think it's a bit deeper than Derry.
💖💖💖
The only dupes I found were not cruelty free 🥺
Oh, please feel free to list them if you'd like! I'm sure other viewers would appreciate the suggestions. 💕
@@GlitterFallout Oh cool! I found that Melted from the LarocPro The Chocolate Palette looks a lot like Derry. Still looking for others lol
I got it because I liked the color story, honestly not to support Shroud or Betty Jean. Mine took almost 6 months to arrive
I totally get that, and honestly, the color story was the #1 selling point for me, too.
I can't read the dupes at all 😭
I wished you used the spooky shade, It's so patchy and unusable on my eyes. I'm so disappointed because all the reviews omit that fact, I wish I knew it before buying it, I bought it after de restock and it arrived quick.
I admit that Spooky is one shade I have to work at to make it work for me. I like to use a tacky base (like the NYX Jumbo Eyeshadow Pencil in Milk) and that really helps it to stick!
@@GlitterFallout That was the only shade I used, I was so disappointed. I'll try the others but I honestly lost my interest in the palette and the brand
I dont know when people say it could have been handled better i wonder how exactly it could have been handled better no matter what they did people were gonna bitch in my opinion no one can know what was within her realm of possibilities to do so im not gonna try to tell someone how to run their busness in my opinion u want it get it u dont wanna wait just dont get it but thats just me and my stance .🤷♀️
And I totally get that point of view! 💕. I would have just preferred more communication in the beginning. But at the end of the day, like I mentioned, I’m thrilled for both BEAUTBEAN and Shroud and I adore this palette. 💕
As far as Leaping Bunny is concerned, from my understanding you just need to promise to be cruelty free to get on the list. So you could "pinky swear" you are going to be cruelty free, then just not be? So Leaping Bunny doesn't really mean squat? Or do you have to actually prove that you are cruelty free and they are just calling it "promising"? If someone knows their policy could you please let me know, thank you!!!!
So PETA is more of the "pinky-swear, we promise we're cruelty free" certification. Leaping Bunny makes companies go through a much more rigorous process to be certified. www.crueltyfreeinternational.org/what-we-do/corporate-partnerships/leaping-bunny-programme
@@GlitterFallout AHHHH!!! OK, I was confusing the PETA with the Leaping Bunny! Thank you!!
