I ordered the bundle as well. I don’t think I buy melt palettes for the shimmers, usually I just love how insanely good and complex the mattes are. I think I would definitely use my single eyeshadows (shimmers, duochromes and multichroms) with these palettes.
I also got the bundle even though I have Gemini in the original packaging… I think they did a good job on the mattes in Gemini ♊️. The mattes all seem darker on my eye than in the pan. A lot of matte formulas make my eyes look dry, these don’t and I appreciate it a lot.
Oh good too know ! I love Melt's mattes,they are never ashy on me. The shimmers have odd formulas but once you figure them out they add a nice texture or look or just use some other shimmers. But I'm glad to know this palette won't be too light on me. I'm gonna be broke!!
Not sure if anyone else already commented but in a recent live, Lora confirmed that Love Sick in the palette is the same as from the stack! I too ordered the bundle! To be honest, I was mainly interested in Gemini 2. I like the look of Gemini but I never cared for it because I thought that I'd only/mainly use the green side. The bundle (plus discount) convinced me to buy like everyone else! Also, someone pointed out (I can't remember which RUclipsr, maybe Kinky Sweat) that the neutral side in Gemini isn't just your typical basic neutral but is more mustard-y so I feel more confident about my purchase. Definitely agree with you though - the first two light shades in Gemini 2 are WAY too similar! I'm looking forward to trying out the bundle soon. Thanks for posting this video, Amy! It's helping with my anticipation. XD
I too ordered the bundle and I can’t wait to get them and Heathers new palette. I really want to mix the Gemini 2 with Heathers palette. I think they will make insanely beautiful eye looks. ♥️🙌🥳
To avoid the temptation to purchase, I tried to make a byop to dupe Gemini 2...I think I did pretty well, but ended up adding a black, a matte cream, a champagne shimmer, and a lighter olive green shimmer. Imo the extra shades did indeed create a more versatile version of an already stunning color story! Loved your swatches and the matte look😊 (Edit: cant wait to see the og Gemini palette video next! 😁)
Your lighting for this video was perfection, all the colors looked exactly as they do in person. I for one am glad they "got" you with that bundle and promo code and I'm grateful your reel is pretty much the first thing I saw on IG that day so I could also indulge. 😂 Have a great weekend!
I got mine yesterday and am very happy with it so far. I was really happy there were only two shimmers, since I don't think that's melt's strongest suit, and I substituted in some of the Clionadh green to pink multichromes.
I tried to do an all matte look.... and ended up pairing with Heather's palette 🤭 Next time I'll use the lightest matte from She's in Parties as an inner lid shade. Still all matte, but a brighter, which is my preference. There are no rules! 😁 I'm so happy with my purchase! 💚 I loved your look! 💚💚💚
Yes, I also thought of the Lois Cosmetics palette. I keep wanting to buy the Gemini 2, I’m drawn to it, but I’m a little torn bcz I don’t really need those 2 light peaches, I understand why 1 would be there, but 2? And the this palettes reds all are about the same level of depth as well so with there only being 2 shimmers to split things up, I know I won’t be satisfied. However, I also know I HAVE NEVER been a 1 palette 1 look girl so there’s really no such thing as a stand alone palette in my collection. So I’m honestly torn. I gotta admit, one factor thats pulling me is the actual feel of the Melt palette in my hand. They fit beautifully in my hand and I know that that better not be my reason to buy it but it is something going in my brain.
Got my bundle in the mail today. Love your eye look and how you used one of the shadows as a pretty matching blush. Thanks for mentioning the Hela palette as a good companion for this collection! I'll definitely pull it out to use with this one. Great review!!
I took advantage of their black Friday sale and bought the Millennial Pink to mix in with the Gemini 2 because it runs so deep. I love how magnetic palettes allow that mix & match option.
I was curious about this palette, I didn't like the colors in the original, but these rose tones with the greenish browns look so pretty together. Beautiful eye look you created, I am really liking these tones and pigmentation of this palette.
I bought both, and they just arrived yesterday and I'm so excited! It arrived the same time as Heather Austin's collaboration with adept cosmetics and I agree with others who have said they would be good to use together!
When you swatched that first shade my first thought was that it would be a pretty blush so I’m glad you did that! :) I ordered the gemini II and it should come in the mail today! I think I want to copy the look you did in this video!🖤
i actually love this grungy red green vibe more than i thought, but i will opt out and do my own color story with singles :D i do love the look you created a lot!
Hello. I love the result look but not the pallete. The full matt moment. Iconic 😍 I actually love it has only 2 satins but I also wish these first 2 shades you swatched were replaced by green matts or at least one of them with some kind of duochrome or at least baseless topper. (Like common Melt ... this is 21st century). The only way I would find it useful is as companion pallete for Gemini Original. So many muave palletes were released since 2021 I don't think many people lack them in their collection. I agree with your pick of the OE x Angelika to (I just don't like the tones of pinks in the OE one). Have a great day today everybody 😄
I loooooove Sydney Grace. Had their Valentines palette release been this color story I would've bought that one so fast even if they had more neutral pinks/mauves. I love Melt too but I find S.G.'s formula more consistent, easier to work with and preferable (not to mention their price point).
Was going to talk myself out of the Gemini 1 and 2, but failed. Did get both on their website and there is an additional discount code, so got them both for 40$ each.
I really can't decide if I should get this or not (I need to get it through Beautybay, so more expensive) but it looks nice! I wish the first shade was a light shimmer though. I'm definitely getting the original Gemini, it's been my "the One that Got Away"!
Looking at your video picture,the thought struck me that Gemini 2 looks a LOT like Millennial Pinks . Just with a swap to olivey tones for the last few. Any chance of swatch comparisons if you haven't done so yet? Please? Inquiring minds need to know....
Good morning happy Sunday morning and I just wanted to say that your vlogs is amazing and you are gorgeous and you are sweetheart I loved your channel always because you are sweetheart
I only want the palette because I’m a Gemini ♊️ lol. Not because I really like the colour story. And I love shimmers and this only has 2 shimmers. I think I’m gonna skip on this one because I don’t think I’ll use it that much
I ordered the bundle as well. I don’t think I buy melt palettes for the shimmers, usually I just love how insanely good and complex the mattes are. I think I would definitely use my single eyeshadows (shimmers, duochromes and multichroms) with these palettes.
Exactly my thought. I have about a gazillion indie duo chrome, multi chrome, or insanely foiled metallics I could pull out to use with melts mattes.
@@Dana-712FifthAve me too! It’s really hard to find really good mattes, even in the indie world.
Agreed! Amy's look is stunning 🤗
I like the red grungy look. Lovely.
I feel like Gemini 2 would be the perfect companion palette to Kaleidos Flower Punk.

This reminds me of a grungier version of the Red Dragon palette by Odens Eye
I can see that 😊
I think I'll be pairing this palette with PM Divine Rose 2 for brighter shimmers. Thanks for the review. I ❤ Melt!
I’d love to see you do a mash up with the Gemini 2 and Hela palettes!

So excited to see a review of this palette. I love the Gemini palette. 🥰
I took advantage of their black Friday sale and bought the Millennial Pink to mix in with the Gemini 2 because it runs so deep. I love how magnetic palettes allow that mix & match option.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who had a change of heart and ordered the bundle😊. I can’t wait for the video and comparisons for the Gemini palette.
It was just too good 😂
I wasn’t going to get these either. But then I swatched them at Sephora and had to have them! I made sure to get the bundle with the discount code!
I was curious about this palette, I didn't like the colors in the original, but these rose tones with the greenish browns look so pretty together. Beautiful eye look you created, I am really liking these tones and pigmentation of this palette.
Im so glad you got these two. Color-wise theyre right up my alley. Such pretty colors !
I tried my pallett today and they all blended wonderfully!!! Love these!
I bought both, and they just arrived yesterday and I'm so excited! It arrived the same time as Heather Austin's collaboration with adept cosmetics and I agree with others who have said they would be good to use together!
Ooooh the shimmers in the Heather Austin Palette will complement this so much! I just got so inspired! 😊
When you swatched that first shade my first thought was that it would be a pretty blush so I’m glad you did that! :)
I ordered the gemini II and it should come in the mail today! I think I want to copy the look you did in this video!🖤
Aaaaw!!! 😍 You read my mind🔮, hun!!! The colour story claims my name. I just need to know your oppinion and see you blending the shadows. Play! 🧛🏻♀️🖤
I hope the video was helpful ❤️
i actually love this grungy red green vibe more than i thought, but i will opt out and do my own color story with singles :D i do love the look you created a lot!
these colors look very good on you @ Amy Loves Makeup
Thank you

I love the Gemini 2, perfect with my green eyes
Amy, the look is gorgeous!! How pretty!!
Thank you!

This is such a beautiful look! I just got my two palettes as well, and I can't wait to use them! 🤗
Were you able to get the Sugar High palette from Menagerie?
The shades look like the “great” formula from Melt! 😎🥰
Was going to talk myself out of the Gemini 1 and 2, but failed. Did get both on their website and there is an additional discount code, so got them both for 40$ each.
Do you remember the promo code?
Could you compare both of these to the Meet Me In The Underworld palette?
I really can't decide if I should get this or not (I need to get it through Beautybay, so more expensive) but it looks nice! I wish the first shade was a light shimmer though.
I'm definitely getting the original Gemini, it's been my "the One that Got Away"!
I'm also getting these two in the $50 bundle 😭💗
Gosh I love your look here
I almost ordered the bundle on launch day but I held off. I may get them still but I had other stuff I wanted but I do have a weak spot for melt.
Looking at your video picture,the thought struck me that Gemini 2 looks a LOT like Millennial Pinks . Just with a swap to olivey tones for the last few. Any chance of swatch comparisons if you haven't done so yet? Please? Inquiring minds need to know....
Ha! I knew you’d get them 😆. Beautiful looks!!
🙈🙈
@@AmyLovesMakeup 👍🥳😁
Beautiful🌻
u look so beautiful!
Good morning happy Sunday morning and I just wanted to say that your vlogs is amazing and you are gorgeous and you are sweetheart I loved your channel always because you are sweetheart
I love this color story, but I have too many palettes 🥴
I only want the palette because I’m a Gemini ♊️ lol. Not because I really like the colour story. And I love shimmers and this only has 2 shimmers. I think I’m gonna skip on this one because I don’t think I’ll use it that much
Melts matte formula is way better than there shimmers
So it wasn't Amy Fools! 😂
🤣🤣🤣 I was having some difficults to make the order and for one second I really though it😝🤦🏻♀️
It was not 😂😂😂
❤️❤️❤️
