    There's something a little ironic about a beauty brand intending to be an antidote to the oversaturated beauty market by introducing more new products to the market. But these do look really lovely. Thank you for sharing!

    • @matildaonvideo

      Absolutely!! I actually had a line in the original voiceover about this but cut it for time. There's certainly something quite jarring about minimal makeup brands often citing oversaturation as their reason for launching.. even when the launch is as nice as this 😂 x

      Feel the same way about brands that claim to be "eco-friendly" or have the "planet positive" label at Sephora. If you wanted to help the planet the last thing you would be doing is manufacturing and shipping more crap that will end up in a landfill. If you want to help the planet so bad start a nonprofit or advocacy organization, not a consumer oriented buisness that sells single use, consumable luxury goods 🙄

      Well, with Merit, I find it's a really curated line. Are they groundbreaking formulas? No. But the colors are all super flattering on a multitude of skin tones and more unique than meets the eye.

I like the lipstick, and if I didn’t already have a metric ton of cream blushes, I’d try that too!

    tiger is my dream shade!! i’ve been wanting to purchase it for months but the shipping cost is so high. i’m waiting for it to come back to sephora. as for the blush shades, i agree they should make more. the shade terracotta is more of a light sandy beige than a terracotta. it’s very pretty but it only stands out on lighter skin tones. i hope they come out with more shades like terracotta but for medium-deep skin and a few more deep shades like mood and raspberry beret. they’re still a very new brand though so there’s still plenty of room to grow! :)

Loved the Parent Trap joke 😂 I also agree that Tiger and even the blush Mood definitely would fit the aesthetic of Taylor Swift’s autumn album Red (Taylor’s Version obvs)! As for a shade of blush that I’d think would be fun to see, would be deep rich red color like that of a freshly poured glass of red wine, like Moods more cousin but with a touch more berry and maybe a hint of charcoal to it or a firey zesty orange like that of a northern flickers feathers (a beautiful local bird in my area) that are a truly beautiful shade of orange :)

    So fun to see this, Matilda! I have been loving this brand and have picked up pretty much the full line. I started with the Cheeky Flush Balm, but also just got the Beverly Hills Flush Balm and really love it. I dab it on my eyelids as well, along with some of the highlight, and it's really nice for a quick, every day look. I also LOVE the Millennial Pink Signature Lip, but seeing this video makes me want to try the Baby color. I placed an order last week to pick up some of the Marrakech, and a few things to gift to my daughter, so I could get that fun canvas bag.

    i really really love glossiers gen g lipstick in leo- within the merit lipsticks youves shown, which do you think is closest to that shade! theyre all beautiful but i cant choose

    • @matildaonvideo
      @matildaonvideo  2 года назад

      Good question Ciera! Unfortunately I haven't worn Leo in years so I can't compare that closely, but I don't think any of these are very similar. MERIT does have another deeper brown shade that might be a better fit if you applied a light layer? 🤎 x

    I want to try those beautiful products so bad, I’ve seen them on all of my favourite beauty channels but they don’t ship to Europe. :(
    I’m seriously considering to ask an American friend of mine to send them to me, I just have a feeling that the shipping cost would be ridiculous.
    Thank you for the swatches nonetheless!

      @matildaonvideo  2 года назад

      Oh no, sorry to tease you Hannah! I did the same and got a friend to mail these to me from the US and also used a forwarding service last year. Hoping international shipping won't be too far away... 🤞 x

    How would you say the complexion stick compares to the iconic Clè de Peau, in the same realm or totally different?
    The Clè de Peau is the first thing that came to mind when I saw the minimalist, I’d love something that give the same skin like finish and amazing longevity but a bit lighter to be able to use allover when needed.
    But maybe I’m just dreaming…..

    • @matildaonvideo
      @matildaonvideo  2 года назад

      Ooh great question Jenica! You know what, I think you're onto something here... On quick makeup / good skin days, I'd sometimes skip base and just blend a bit of Cle de Peau in the exact same areas that I now use The Minimalist (forehead, chin, outwards from the nose). Cle de Peau does have a lot more coverage, but I think they both fit in a similar skin-like, creamy category where The Minimalist is a lighter companion 👍 x

    To anyone who's tried Glossier and MERIT, how do the blushes compare w/ colors and wear time?

    • @wweennddyy17
      @wweennddyy17 2 года назад +1

      Merit feels more balmy and lighter - easier to blend out but doesn’t stay the whole day (at least the lighter shades don’t.) Glossier is more pigmented, more paint-like, dries down a little quickly but longer lasting. Prefer merit, especially the more plummy/darker shades (blend out beautifully and easy to use and beginner friendly!)

    • @matildaonvideo
      @matildaonvideo  2 года назад +1

      Apologies for the late reply Monica, but Wendy has saved the day with a perfect summary of both formulas! 👏 I prefer MERIT's too x

    • @matildaonvideo
      @matildaonvideo  2 года назад +1

      I can help Kristina! The MERIT lipsticks are a lot more balmy and lightweight on the lips with a satin finish, whereas Bobbi Brown Crushed (one of my all time favourites!) is matte and not as smooth or light 💄 1-2 swipes of each might have a similar look in terms of colour pay off, but the finish and formulas are ultimately quite different x

    it's funny and ironic that they are introducing more new products when they are intending to be an antidote to the oversaturated beauty market. i'm not sure i will buy from them because i already have my eyes on other brands that can do the same if not similar. i still enjoyed this video though. keep up the good work! :)

    When I first saw the lipsticks I thought I was Maybelline 100%. Same goes foe their blush, it is very similar to the Maybelline blush from many years back. I don't reallt like the packaging of these two and find it strange that nobody is pointing out the similarities.

    • @matildaonvideo
      @matildaonvideo  2 года назад

      I've definitely seen the Maybelline comparisons, and comparisons to other brands! That's why I mentioned that some people think that packaging doesn't fit the rest of the brand's style, but the formulas are fantastic! 😍 x

    The products look nice, but with how hard it would be for me to source this, not worth abandoning my Chanel for. When I want clean mineral products, Jane Iredale is my go to.
    Always a good video, Matilda. Worth the watch.

    I bought the bronzer and stick highlighter. I have normal skin and am experienced with make up application and products. Both products are shockingly bad, greasy, sticky and basically unusable. To add insult to injury, no signature bag was sent, and this was my first order. Despite contacting Merit, they have ignored my requests for bag to be sent. £66 wasted, lesson learnt !

    I find the lip oils to be extremely underwhelming. They have no lasting power whatsoever and aren't worth the price tag. The lipsticks, on the other hand... perfection. I own three.
