Your collection is magnificent! I love how it is uncluttered with junk. You picked your prestige brands and they are all outstanding! I need to streamline for sure!!!
Your collection is so beautiful! Right up my alley! So thankful i randomly found your profile! Im waiting on some ensley reign palettes and i got the glaminatrix barely basic palette after seeing your review! Im obsessed with it. Always enjoy your videos ❤️❤️
When I started watching this video, I was doing my makeup. When I was deciding what palette I should use today you mentioned the Jackie Aina palette. I thought “that’s a perfect palette to use right now“. And I’m so glad I did. I really love that palette so much! Along with my Latte and Friendcation palette 😍
I think I’m the last person to have picked up the So Jaded palette. I bought mine from Mercari this past September. I’m so glad I did! It’s such a gorgeous color story! I remember watching Kathleen Lights video when she first announced it. And to see RUclipsrs still keeping their palettes after all this time made me want to see what i was missing out on. I’m so happy it’s in my collection now 🥰
@@cjraine4361 I am already seeing a few changes from the brand.. I have already spoke to the owner and I am sure there is lots going to happen in the near future
Love your collection❤ I appreciate you included ER as I am a big fan of sparkling ER shadows and have 10 palettes including Wolf Moon and Snow Moon. It is scary to see other creators suddenly cancelled ER probably out of fear of being cancelled themselves. Makeup should not be mixed with politics. I would love to see beautiful looks you created with Wolf and Snow Moon palettes.
I respect your opinion. I can’t speak to the ER situation, as I’ve read conflicting comments, but I am glad to know that L’Oreal has a history (if they don’t still) of testing on animals, for example, and to have been able to see how awful some of these people/companies are so that *I* can *choose* to not support them. With facts, each person can make their own choices. If we don’t have the facts, then we can’t. My opinion - just mine - is that business and politics and decency are intertwined. Even Ulta dropped JSt*r, right? 🤷
Stunning collection. Ensley Reign is also the biggest part of my collection too. I love their color stories and designs. I am also hopefully they will do better in 2025. As of the makeup, I am keeping mine and using it since I already spent the money on its plus I love the formula.
You have a beautiful collection! I will say as someone who owns a couple ensley reign palettes (cold moon and harvest moon), I wouldnt be surprised if they shut down soon. How will an expensive indie brand be successful without the beauty IG and youtubers hyping them up? Kat von d lost her brand after she came out as anti vax. JD glow (anti choice) closed. I guess we will see!
I just ordered adept heather austin and ninhydrin. I was sad i missed the original minka but so happy a larger version being released, so if I like formula of other 2 new minka going on wishlist. I also want to pick up an ensley reign just not sure which but i dont want to buy all i like incase i dont like formula. 😅 I want to get into pan that palette but these companies keep releasing so many pretties ill never finish lol.
I can't stand the fact that content creators cannot only be about the makeup as well. I don't agree with Ensley Reign's unpopular opinions either, but cancel completely? It's extreme. I loved this video. It was fun! ☺️ Have a nice day❤
Thanks for including Ensley Reign. I am really disapointed with creators who canceled them because it is obvious that they did it to avoid being cancelled themselves.
Thank u for the video.. if i don't ask for too much ,can u do a comparison of those 2 new palettes from ER with the Cold Moon?. I was thinking to buy all the 3 paletes but some of the shades are too similar... ❤
@@PHOENIX.M749 I can post a photo with similar shades.. I already have the snow moon and wolf moon palette video ready in the queue the day it was revealed
ER cose not to keep makeup as makeup when they used their professional platform to support hate sppech. Individuals can have their own opinions, but the second they involved their company name, they made a choice to be political. There are repercussions to that choice.
Thanks for including ER, I think you called it perfectly. Don’t like people pretending they don’t own the palettes in rankings etc. Would hate for you to get unpleasant messages for commenting on the new release tho.
@@katiechatseyeshadow4394 I know.. I agree and disagree to a few things and I have voiced it out in a few videos but I really want to keep this channel with makeup with no strings attached.. I am also not forcing anyone to buy any of this.. just from a review purpose wanna be truthful to the audience that watches me
I've really waffled over the Ensley Reign situation. I'm still not entirely sure what the correct move for myself is because, while on the one hand I very much believe in voting with your dollars, so to speak, and would prefer not to fund people who might then use their power/influence/wealth to support causes I find antithetical to my morals, I also believe in people being able to learn from mistakes and grow. I'm willing to give them another shot and if there are other issues that arise in the future I will re-evaluate. For now, after a few actual months Cold Moon to my cart and then closing the site, coming back and repeating ad nauseum, I've finally ordered the Flutter palette as my first ER palette. That being said, it's absolutely ridiculous to cancel content creators for covering the brand. It's wild to me just how many major beauty RUclipsrs IMMEDIATELY jumped on the bandwagon of cancelling Ensley Reign and I have to wonder how many are authentic and how many are just scared that if they don't they'll also be cancelled themselves. Found your channel somewhat recently and I gotta say, you've quickly become the first or second I channel I search for specific palette reviews (including in my Flutter purchase decision). I appreciate your content and I also find your voice very enjoyable to listen to.
@@likeguiltdoes thank you for understanding.. I truly believe in giving people second chances but I also want to see big changes from them in future.. no reaction to politics or any gender specific content from their brands page.. there is no 2 cents on that I love that brand because of the products that they produce..
@@likeguiltdoes they put an apology out and said they fully support the lgbtq+ community on both their TikTok and Instagram channels. That’s good enough for me and will continue to buy from them. The AI thing I don’t understand because most of the makeup brands either use ai or have in the past. I don’t care for AI but I don’t understand why some brands are targeted for using it while others are not? 🤷🏻♀️ I guess I don’t understand cancel culture? lol. Thanks for your post. 😀
I subscribed as soon as you said you were not cancelling Ensley Reign. The cruel things people did and said were much worse than what ER ever did in the first place. They are my fav brand and I have every palette.
I love seeing your collection 😍 ❤
