    I have this palette and I absolutely love it. I don’t have any issues when I treat it as if they were pigments. I lay the color down, Pat, tap, blend and sometimes blending with a different color than I first applied. Melt is one of my favorite brands and I would own more if I had the money.

    • @GlitterFallout
      @GlitterFallout  3 года назад +4

      Yes, exactly! Patting it rather than swiping is key.

  • @christyfielding7498
    @christyfielding7498 3 года назад +10

    I've seen people sat to treat this like pigments and tap, pat, blend, go dark to light, etc. I'm sorry but a good quality pigment will perform like any good eyeshadow. For the price of melt you shouldn't have to jump through hoops or use them a certain way to get them to work. And I love to take time and play with makeup but I don't want to have to pack on pigment over and over to get it to work. That's my opinion at least.

    • @GlitterFallout
      @GlitterFallout  3 года назад +1

      Oh, I completely understand that opinion! And I hope I got that point across - that this isn't the world's easiest palette at all.

    For this palette another factor that I had an issue with was longevity. Because the shadows are so powdery I found that after a few hours the shadows faded a bit, even with my Fenty primer which is on the stickier side. I love the look you made though 😍 I might get this palette out again

    • @GlitterFallout
      @GlitterFallout  3 года назад +4

  • @ccl6192

    I like the palette but agree completely with you and everyone else. It takes some extra effort and a slightly different approach to get it to look the way I want but I don’t necessarily think it’s “bad”. It’s also true that that one shade changes color a little bit when applied. My strategy with this palette is to use a smooth silicone type textured base not a sticky primer. The sticky primers are too hard to blend on top of with this formula for me. Also just like you said. Pat it in don’t swipe. If you try to swipe it on it disappears or gets patchy. I really enjoy the color story and I have had great success with that topper sparkly shade by using my finger to pick it up then spritzing with a bit of mixing medium and gently pressing it on. Everything people are saying is true. It’s different/difficult to work with but I guess if you love the colors and playing around with makeup enough and you are willing to spend the extra effort it is totally worth it. I guess it kind of depends on your end goal whether you’re going to like it or not. If you are like me and just like to have a quiet fun hobby and “play with your toys” while the rest of the house is asleep you’ll like it. If you want fast effortless and easy to work with you will probably be left frustrated and annoyed by it and hate it.

    • @GlitterFallout

    I actually got this palette for free! I ordered the 27 palette on a major sale, they sent me this one instead. They told me to keep it along with sending me the 27 (2 melt palettes for less than 40$ helll yeahhhh). But I agree with you! Takes some babysitting with this palette but I enjoy the colors of it too much

  • @shutcheson95
    @shutcheson95 3 года назад +2

    First comment! But I have the palette and I love it. These shade are the kind you have to tap/bounce to blend vs windshield wiping motion. Otherwise they’ll end up everywhere but your eyelids. So I agree with you, it requires patience pants for you to enjoy.

I also love the colors, but it is a bit similar to the Melt earth palette, but I don’t care! I’ve also noticed that in my recent learning how to do eye shadow without looking like a 5-year-old who got into Tammy Faye Baker’s makeup that I wind up loving palettes that others don’t. So….here goes nothin! It should be arriving next week 🙂 you’re THE GREATEST for these videos, THANK YOU!!

However, it has always been a kind of want at the same time. I’m so glad I passed since I dislike shadows that don’t play nicely. Your eyes just popped with these colors and it looks so good on you. Mazel to you for having patience pants, I need some especially when driving these days lol. I know you will use this with another melt pallete, and make another cool look. Kiss spooky for me.

    I think I love this color story in the way that I loved Makeup Menagerie Killer Purr and ace Beauté Tropical Vibes. I think that with this palette it feels either like you love a pigment shadow and you need to love tapping instead of blending (and you don’t mind dusting away the fallout) or you really really don’t. I just bought the reformulated Oceanic from Ace, if I love that, maybe I’ll do the Tropical Vibes. I love a complicated look, but I don’t need a high maintenance palette in my already overlarge collection.

    This palette definitely needs love when applying. You can’t blend it out too far or it looks muddy. I don’t use eye primer. I set my eyes with concealer and powder to avoid my shadows (in general) from having that darker color in spots. The shimmer is bad but I live for the Melt mattes. It’s not a beginner palette. The palette works great with Rust and Smoke Sessions.
    Conversely, I picked up the ND Biba in the Black Friday sale and I think it is pretty unspecial. I don’t get that hype. The shadows and color story are just okay.

    • @GlitterFallout

I have almost all of the Melt palettes and this is definitely my problem child. I find it hard to blend shadows on top of one another so I have to work from darkest to lightest and that just isn't my technique preferences. And that Shatter shade is indescribably lackluster. Iam waiting for the Ace Beaute Tropical Vibes palette to restock and I'll use that instead.

    Spot on Linda. Spot on.
    I just went and snagged my 420 to re-swatch, also bought on extreme sale with extreme hesitation and a wee bit of delight. I did not struggle bus with the swatches, different pressings, different palette? Wish I could send a pic. Anywayzzzzz. Who knows, but "Shatter" should probably be called "Scatter to the winds" to call it a topper shade is being generous indeed, so there is one struggle bus for ya. As for the rest, agree it is a take your time palette, I think many of MELTS palettes are that, also agree on the Subculture analogy. Another stunning, but take your time, know thy pigment, these aren't your grandma's Estee Lauder shadows.
    I have zero regrets on all my MELT palettes and stacks. My only regret is the one, the duo that got away, but let's not revisit sadness.
    Side note:
    Almost all of my ABH shadows in palettes do a weird oxidation/color shift thing on my lids and I have A LOT of their palettes. They are delicate flowers that I have to be careful to not use too many shades and no fancy blending, just gentle pat pats with a dab of blend, and conservative windshield wiper motions or mud commences.
    Edit 2nd side note: Ace Beaute, lovely as it is, does not have the dusky, dirty, drug through the mud rose. I need the "Hash" for balance!
