Very pretty! I already had the twisted tea party and of course it went on sale after I paid $30 more for it at full price but also picked up the flutter or flourish can’t remember which now but the one that was $33 and grabbed the underland palette too during Black Friday and still waiting on those. I really want the pink and blue palette too I think it’s called enchanted but not exactly sure off the top of my head. I won’t get much use out of the greens unless I buy some green tops or blouses 😆 and cold moon was the first palette I bought from them and I love that one. Alter ego’s coastal palette is a steal for $24 and it’s a dupe for Huda Rose Quartz and I love that one too. I think I better cool my jets on make up and nail spending for a couple months but I do really love everything I’ve gotten.
@ 😂 🤣 🤷♀️❤️❤️❤️ I mean, I guess we could be spending our money on a lot worse things but then again it is an addiction in and of itself! Now I have this palette of singles started too like I needed that! It is so hard to say no and my darn want list keeps growing too. 🤦♀️ And of course they have the modern day lay-a-way with affirm, klarna, afterpay and so on. If they don’t get ya with the sparkle they get ya with being able to break it up on payments every two weeks.
Thank you for this review! I got a new sweater very similar to yours and I need to wear it!! it looks beautiful on you. Thanks for the tip about wearing silver shimmer with gold. I’m going to give that a try! I have lots of gold shimmers that I don’t know what to do with because they don’t look great on me by themselves, but I bet pairing them with silver will do the trick.
Thank you! I freaked out and ordered WAY too many Temu sweaters a few weeks ago and this is one of my faves! The colors were perfect for this palette. I love sweater season! Good luck with the gold and silver mix too...one of my fave looks!
@@redgirlreviews no shame in a small sweater freakout! I did the same with recent sales, especially Costco. In my defense, I decluttered a bunch because I realized I was keeping a bunch of sweaters that I didn’t even really like and/or that didn’t even fit, because they were given to me. So I had to restock! 😂
Thank you! Hubby made it through colon resection surgery to get rid of cancer so that's good. Unfortunately it did spread so now he is prepping to go into 6 months of chemo which is going to be hard but we'll get through it. He's my age and way too young to get taken out by colon cancer! So glad he got checked when his brother suddenly had it as well because he didn't have any symptoms and probably wouldn't have known until it was too late and had spread to a major organ in which case he'd be stage 4 with a very bad outlook at survival. Now he's at least got a better chance.
@ClaraBarrerabeautyisageless55 oh my goodness thank you again. That must have been so hard but I’m assuming you all got through it successfully. I keep trying to tell myself treatment has gotten so much better but I’m very nervous for him. Both of our moms died from cancers early (mine at 54 & his at 61) and we saw how they suffered through treatment so it’s pretty nerve wracking to face chemo now and the uncertainty. So strange to be living your life as normal and then next thing you know you’re in major surgery and then going into surgery for a port and being told you’ve got 6 months of poison and will lose feeling in your feet and hands for several years. 🥺
@ it’s not easy but staying positive is as important as the treatment, just focus on the light at the end of the tunnel, and taking care of yourself is as important as being there for hubby. Much love!
@ClaraBarrerabeautyisageless55 yep totally agree, I’ve told him one foot in front of the other just do the next thing and the next thing you need to do, I’ll hold your hand and assume you will get through it as you are strong and young and have 75% odds which are good assuming some of those 25% with stage 3 that didn’t fare so well might not have had your youth or health. My aunts down South are deeply religious and they put my heart at ease lending me some of their strength and grace so I can be support for him. We still have one young child, a teen and a young adult at home that I need to be strong for too. I appreciate you sharing your experience too as it gives me more hope!
I was hoping you would review this and your looks are stunning. I definitely want this but will wait to see if they secure an Aussie stockist (that they are investigating) to save on the high shipping costs. From Bad to the Brow’s review many of the shimmers are similar to Glaminatrix’s glimmering creation range so I have plenty to get the look in the interim. (On the drama this palette addresses the criticism about AI plagiarism/taking work from artists as they have worked with an artist).
Thank you! Yeah, I hear ya on not wanting to pay massive shipping costs and if you have similar shimmers to Glaminatrix already then yes, I'd wait. It's really the shimmers that people go to Ensley Reign for. Their mattes are amazing and that's a bonus but their shimmers are what I'm in love with. The other one that has AHMAZING shimmers/duo chromes that I love is our local company Fantasy Cosmetica. The Druid and Fighter palettes are some of my absolute faves. Yeah, I thought the AI art thing was what people were upset about. It was one of the reasons I quit doing digital art production myself, like what's the point when you can generate something gorgeous in a few minutes in a program that would take me days to paint.
The only drama around Ensley Reign has been the art being AI, like you said. I don't see what the big deal is. If people would rather the budget go into the art on the box than the actual product or the secure packaging I don't know why they are spending money on makeup. The pictures are beautiful either way. This palette was done not done by AI. Your looks came out beautiful. .
Thank you and yep, I kinda feel like it's a shoulder shrug issue. I was a digital artist and when I first started people complained that using Photoshop to paint images was not real art and only handmade art was valid but I knew that even though I was trained in oils etc. it was totally impractical to create art that way when you were working with advertisers and companies that would have to digitize it anyway for mass printing or putting on the internet etc. as well as there being no way to compete with other digital artists that could produce work and then different versions of work for them to choose from MUCH more quickly. I see Ai art as just another evolution in using new tools to produce art. Also, Ai art is limited to the styles they have already sampled so if you want something unique that doesn't look like Ai, you can still hire a real artist to work with. I do think they eventually will need to legislate things better and don't think it is fair for them to be able to sample your work if you don't agree to it...sort of like licensing artwork has always worked before.
I've been really excited to order this palette as well as the cold moon palette, but then I read from others that the shadows creased really bad. Have you found it the formula to work well with that?
Dear Jessica,
I love yellow with dark purple - great eye looks.
Sent with tons of love.
Yes! I love when a palette is good enough to actually show the contrast too!
Stunning looks!
@@amyferguson8258 thank you! Stunning shimmers in this palette! 😍
This is my favorite palette of 2024!!!!
For me it's a toss up between this and the Huda Icy Nude and the two are great together!
Gorgeous pallet Gorgeous looks!
@@trac6009 thanks! 🥰
❤❤❤ I just found you and loved this exploration of a new to me brand. Thank you. I have subscribed and will look forward to more.
Welcome! Thanks so much and I’m glad to have you here! ☺️

Beautiful palette and gorgeous looks. I hope hubby is doing well. Merry Christmas 🎄💕

@ thank you for the update, I will keep him in my prayers. My husband has had 3 battles with cancer so I know what your family is going through 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

I ordered this pallet (and a few others lol) a few weeks ago!! Hoping to get it in the next few weeks so I can start playing with it.
It's so good! Hopefully it shows up soon because it's perfect for holiday sparkle!
Thank you for the thorough review! Lovely palette. Can you tell me the nail polish you are wearing in the video? I love it.
Absolutely! It's Essie Gilded Galaxy 17 and I've been LOVING it for winter, subtle but gorgeous little bit of whimsy. amzn.to/4gdgHmG

I have five ER palettes. I've never had any issue with creasing at all. I do use a primer, either Sigma or MAC.
@Sherralyn thank you so much!
I agree! No problems for me either but I don’t have terribly oily lids, maybe medium.
