I am liking The Lovers more. I just ordered undergrowth and muse palette. I am glad the storm is over and you are fully back. Always good to see you. The Daydreamer is a miss. Even the nudes are super muted. Boycotting a brand used to be a principled decision. Now, the right wants to call that cancel culture and liken it to bullying.That's a distraction. I think that sending Morphe a message is important especially if they aren't making changes.
@sheilamoriarty3169 absolutely! And funnily enough, the word boycott came from my County- mayo here in Ireland. I personally don’t feel comfortable purchasing from Morphe any more, but I’m not going to judge others for their decisions as I just don’t know what their circumstances are. As long as people are fully informed before they make a decision, that’s the only thing that really matters in my opinion.
If course I bought the lower pallet, I held back on the beauty bay, for the second time, tempted by Jolie beauty but have to ask myself do I nee😮 tainted when I have sinister pallet and Jolie beauty vampirism pallet
I personally feel like you could hold back on the Jolie Beauty - you have enough between the Sinister and the Vampirism palette - you'd just be duping your collection at that point!
I was just trying to remember when I last got a Beauty Bay palette because I used to be so excited for them, but I'm pretty sure I've not bothered with the last 3 20 pans at least.
This is exactly what I’m saying! They’ve lost their touch! And we used to get SO hyped by them… but now we have other brands coming out that are just as competitive, but with better color stories and more innovative formulas… they need to amp up their game
@@teresamulhern yeah, with Cosmic Beauty for pretty much the same price and much more interesting colour stories and finishes who really cares about Bueaty Bay? I think the last thing I got from them was the Rebal Romance one from last Valentine's.
@@sequinedswantotally agree. Cosmic is the first one to come to mind- and they’re providing a colour story with some similar shades… but WAY more versatility
Oh I have looked everywhere for it- I can’t find that one at all. I will continue to look though- it’s the 2.0 that I’m wanting as I have the other one and love it
I think if it's a toss up between beauty bay and cosmic brushes there no comparison as cosmic brushes executes there colour stories and designs much better and quality speaks for it's self x
Teresa, you do not need more blushes! Although, if you started up a Fans Only page and put blush on your other cheeks, I can see you doing very well. Just saying. xox
Morphe was one of the first companies I stopped buying from. TBH, their palettes are not very drag queen friendly. Not enough pigment for me. But it was their cheap, overpriced (even on sale) brushes that killed them for me. But what can you expect from a company who doesn't actually make anything they're selling? Seriously. xox
My god yeah - some of those brushes were TERRIBLE. But then there were some random little diamonds that were really good. The lack of consistency was such an issue for them.
For the BB palette, it seems weird to me that they leaned so heavily neutral for the light tones, but didn't put in a super dark, cool brown or a dark, plum-leaning brown to make it more versatile. One more dark shade like this would've made a great liner and a deepening shade for more neutral looks.
Hi my beauty of course I brought bb and cosmic palettes… this was a must… Morphe not buying anymore, just like revolution … I’m getting rid of both .. so this week it was buy 2, get rid of 150 I will get my collection back on somewhat of a normal size 😳 Enjoy your weekend 💖💖💖
I’m really interested in what isamaya is coming out with next I almost bought from the archive sale but I held off because I didn’t want to buy something, love it and then it get discontinued so soon! I’m so tempted to invest in a few of the cosmic beauty palettes, not just cause they’re a Sheffield based brand (Yorkshire lass here) but because they’re colour stories and quality speaks to me. Have my eyes on their nudetrals and undergrowth palette- I’m not sure about this lovers palette I love the colours but the last few times I’ve done pink looks on my eyes I hated my makeup 😂
Oh Tamsin, I TOTALLY hear you on the fear of falling for a discontinued item… I have a few things I’ve loved and they’ve been discontinued. I personally feel like you could pull off ANY colour story- but you’re also the kind of person that could wear a bin bag and look chic…. So there’s that. Realistically though, I feel like the Nudetrals and cooltrals are WAY more your vibe- I could see you getting way more use out of those.

Oh you're right - that's back in March of 2023 based upon what I've looked up. But the closing of the UK stores was after Forma was bought out. So the new owners still chose to use the same tactic in terms of just not letting employees know what was happening with the stores and their jobs.

@@teresamulhern Thanks for the history lesson, Teresa. Take care and be well.🥰
I got the cosmic brushes palette instantly despite saying I would wait. I have zero self control, but that colour story is so my jam!
Ahahaha you remind me of me! How many times in R&R do I say “oh I’ll wait”… and then I get it
Same. I was on there at 6 pm on the dot.
Theresa, your voice is a beacon cutting through the apocalyptic chaos of the world this morning. I hope you have a wonderful weekend ❤
Aaw thank you so much my love
I want that Hello Kitty powder puff and stackable eyeshadows and the lip balm ❤😻😽💄💋

I tried the girlcult! Formula is so nice!
Yesssssss!!!!!!! I knew you’d love it!!!! How SMOOTH are those mattes????

for the industrial palette, check other stores than isamaya. the bundle is still in stores here (not in my city).
Oh I have looked everywhere for it- I can’t find that one at all. I will continue to look though- it’s the 2.0 that I’m wanting as I have the other one and love it
@teresamulhern oh sorry. i thought you wanted the first one....
I'm after either I remain hopeful
@@mimirocktoh my goodness, no need to apologise, the very fact that you even tried to help is just beyond lovely

Oh ABSOLUTELY!!! It's Cosmic Brushes ALL the way!!

I agree - it was quite odd - but also that they were marketing it as very violet/purple.

I will get my collection back on somewhat of a normal size 😳

Oh wow!! What a declutter!!! Well done you!!
I only have 4 cheeks! the way I spilled my sip!!
Ahahahaha I’m genuinely delighted that I had that effect on you!

Do I need to get on a plane to Tokyo or Bangkok to get the ice blue Dior highlighter? Because I will sell a kidney! 😂
If you’re going would you pick one up for me??? I’ll PayPal you 🤣
Sheglam - not my thing at all x I always associate it with teenage girls 🙁 sorry just not me xx
Cosmic Beauty - absolutely love it x as it’s not the classical “valentines” colour scheme which I love x I really like the pan layout it makes it easy on the eye and I have mine on route lol xx
Daydreamer by Beauty Bay - I have mine already cause 20 pans of nice colours at £16 I don’t mind, however it is very muted and will be very day to day stuff x I think the 12 swatches is due to the fact the last 8 colours were last minute options (that’s just how it feels xx
Singe - I love them and will wait and pick them up as I like them and will pick up another of the original set cause I enjoy them xx
Dieverune - Smitten x I love that especially the charity idea x kitty chrome x they look fine but I have so many special shades from pastel roses xx so I’m sure I can get a similar look from all my current collection x
Rhodes - I like the lip liners but not racing to the store to buy ever xx
Glow Recipe - I actually like both colours x and think next month I will be trying to pick up one or both xx
Morphe - I have a few 9 pan and I don’t mind them but nothing amazing to be honest x
Jolie - tainted palette (I will buy that) the rest I will pick up a few other bits maybe xx I like the boldness of Jolie x it’s what I expected from them xx
Dior - drool yummy yummy x so pretty x oh my trauma memories lol x my school days were fine for the most part but definitely enjoyed the social side more than the academic side lol x I got by with English and maths but excelled more in practical subjects xx
Glisten - I need to see what everyone comments on these cause I have eyed them up and then thought nope as they won’t be anywhere near as good as my colossal curl bounce x
Klarity - I like the range it looks pretty decent range tbh it would be ridiculous to have everyone’s colours sadly xx
Was a decent range this week xx enjoy your week hunni much love xx
Now that I didn’t know that’s bullshit
What was it that you didn’t know?
Murphy was bought out
Oh you're right - that's back in March of 2023 based upon what I've looked up. But the closing of the UK stores was after Forma was bought out. So the new owners still chose to use the same tactic in terms of just not letting employees know what was happening with the stores and their jobs.
