Hello everyone, welcome back. Thank you so much for joining me. So today, listen, I'm
going to talk about it a little bit more in a minute but I have got into
the mind frame of organization, again. I did a video a few months back where I
was organizing some of my palettes and I want to do the same again. I have like a
handful here because it's, it's a very stressful thing for me
to declutter makeup. I, I do have like slight hoarder potential, I believe. And
that's not me being like, I'm such a hoarder, I genuine... like I will keep the
box, I will, you know. So I'm trying to get past that and not let it get too,
too crowded in this room. So I'm gonna go through some of these palettes, some
of them I'm gonna keep, and some of them I'm gonna pass on to someone else or a
charity. I'll sanitize them before, as a lot of charities are accepting
lightly used makeup now, and my palettes are extremely lightly used. I think
that's one thing about influencering, is you probably get to use a palette maybe
once or twice and then it's on to the next one, unfortunately. So, but then I
always have my staples that I love. So I have a few here. And talking about
organization and trying to organize things, I want to say a huge thank you to
the sponsor of today's video and that is Cricut. Now, this is a bit of a different
one for me and it's kind of slipped very nicely into my life at the moment. I am
moving very soon, well in the New Year, and as I was saying I want to get
extremely organized. My makeup room at the moment is extremely practical, it
doesn't necessarily look good. What you can see behind me looks great but I have
mess everywhere, so I want to get extremely organized. I want to make this
room a comfortable place for me to sit in as I spend a lot of time in here
filming. So that means, you know, getting rid of some makeup, labeling what I have,
and making sure that everything looks nice and tidy. So, I have been using the
Cricut Joy which is a cutting machine. I know some of you will love this, I know
how creative some of you all are as well. So this is a really cute... just look at it, little
cutting machine. You have your blade right here, and you basically put your
vinyl into this bit and you can personalize anything in under 15 minutes.
It is so quick. It's so easy to use, especially for me, someone who has never
done anything like this. I'm not a very crafty person so using it is really
simple, it's basically like App based. I personally use this because I wanted to
label my drawers, I have these acrylic drawers with tiny, those tiny little
like really basic labels that I can't read from here, anyway.
And they just look bor... they just look boring. They look militant, they look
really... just a bit underwhelming. So I have used the Cricut Joy to cut out
basically the names of what is in the drawer. It's so, so simple, you just open
the App type in your text. Make sure the height and width are correct, and
then the machine just cuts it out for you, and then you can just go ahead and
stick your design onto whatever it is you want to stick it onto. So for me it was
letters, so it was concealer, foundation, primer. Now, you can peel off the letters
one by one and stick it on but I did that, and I kind of found it went up like
this at the end because I can't stick things in a straight... I have no
experience with such things. But luckily it came with this transfer tape where
you can just stick it on top of your design, rub gently over it, and then peel off the
design and literally put it directly onto your item that you want to put
your design onto. It was so simple, so easy to use. I can't
wait to use it more. I'm going to label the inside of my drawers, I'm going to
label many more things. I just wanted to show you as well, just how much nicer
these labels look,
compared to these horrible labels. This just looks so much nicer for me.
It looks a little bit more permanent, you know?
I also, like part of me wants to take it down to the kitchen and start labeling
everything in the kitchen. And there are so many different materials
you can use as well, there's vinyls, there's like more permanent vinyl. You can also
do loads of different things with the App, you can make cards, you can put cards in the machine.
There's pens that come in and draw the really nice designs on. There's so many different
things you can do with this tiny little cutting machine. It's super fun and easy
to use as well. So thank you so much to Cricut for sponsoring this video, I will leave a link down below to the product for you
so you can go ahead and check it out for yourself. Okay, let's get into it. I have one, two, three, four,
five, six, seven... I have eight pallets here. So I've, I'm being really brave.
I've taken a big chunk. Okay, let's start with the first palette, and this is
the Bratz Revolution Palette. Now, I did get all of them,
I got this one and I got the, the like card ones, you know.
And I really didn't like them, I found the
colors really boring, first of all. And there were the occasional like pop of color, like
they'll be an amazing green, like this green for example. A really, really
nice like warm brown like this one over here, and then it'll just be really bland
boring colors like this. Yeah, I just feel like it didn't really
make sense as a palette. I think they could have, I think they could have done one
really exciting palette. And it just looks like some of the colors really repeat themselves.
The texture of this, I was very disappointed in. Now, here's my deal
with Revolution, I like Revolution, I like some of their products a lot. Like their peach
highlighter is beautiful, I just got back into that recently.
Every collaboration they do with an influencer is amazing, the textures are beautiful. And usually all the
licenses they do are really, really nice as well.However,
this one isn't quite...
It's like their normal range of stuff, it was, I was extremely disappointed.
With Revolution, I would usually buy some of their things. I didn't buy the Friends stuff
because I'm not, I'm not really that into Friends. Like I'll watch it on TV but I'm not gonna, I don't like sit around
quoting it and stuff, you know. And I found some of the mattes in here quite underwhelming
as well, in terms of pigmentation. Like,
it's just like, it's not really coming up. The shimmers are okay, it's not difficult to make
a shimmer nowadays. So, here's what I'm gonna do with this one, I'm gonna sanitize it and
clean it up, I have actual makeup sanitizer and
donate this one, because... Off to a good start. Here's the deal,
if I don't like the palette, in this situation, it's not a bad thing because it means,
you know, I'm, I'm making room... for more. No, I'm making room
for, I'm making room. Okay, next up this
is the I Am palette, and this is by Becky G. This is a really, really incredible,
incredible palette. Is it focusing? I'm gonna have to do this, aren't I?
I really, really like these colors as well. This... for some, a palette,
oh, a palette that has like this green... wow, this green is
really looking really underwhelming on the monitor but in real life it's so beautiful.
This green, this yellow, this blue, this purple, this color right here,
this black is deep, deep. It looks so deep.
Then we have this really nice deep blue. I probably create... I made one of my favorite,
favorite looks I did with this palette. I really liked it. I'm going to keep this one because it's a really stunning palette.
Alright. Oh, my God, this is the To The Rescue Palette from e.l.fx Jkissa.
Where's my stickers? Oh, the stickers are in there.
I need to decorate that more. This is so cute. I really, really like this
palette. I know people see these palettes and they're like, not another
rainbow palette.But it's, to me, it's not really rainbow, to me it's like color spectrum, right. Like if
you were to get any palette and put all the pro... and put all the colors in
like color order it would be a rainbow-looking palette.
What I love, love, love about this palette is the lighter color,
the deeper tone of that color, and then the shimmer to complement
the color underneath, I think that's a really nice way to mix it up a little bit and get a little bit more
texture in there. I think this palette is, I can't... actually, I want to use this one
again, I actually can't wait to use this again. I loved the texture. E.l.f
eyeshadows, I really, really like, especially their little bite-sized ones,
I think are really cute and such, such a good
quality shadow. And what are they like $3? Not even sometimes.
Really nice, I love this palette. And you can customize it and put your stickers on the front which I'm gonna do a little bit more actually.
So, okay, let's keep that one, okay. Okay next up, we have the Fashion Festive
Beauty Trends, this is by Enique Beauty. Not Unique as in U-nique like
the multi-level marketing company that made that nasty crusty mascara that
blinded everyone. This is Eunique as an E-U-N,
you know, how you spell Eunique. That's how you spell Eunique? I'm Dyslexic. Anyway.
This is a really, really cute little collection because you have like, your kind of
like Warm Autumn, like fall colors here. And then Dark Souls which kind of
like goes with a Halloweeny theme. And then you have your more Christmas theme. You know what, this is an
amazing thing because I feel like brands really miss
out on their Halloween launches, right. Or their like Fall
collection or their... or they don't go so hard on the Christmas stuff. Where as this
kind of has like, you know what, we're going to give you all the season in one little thing. This is so cute, and I love, love,
love the texture of this brand as well. This is the Halloween one.
Look, I've used this already.
This kind of like purpley foil up in this top...
oh, you can't really see it.
It's like a purple... let me catch that purple. There it is. Like a pinky
purple, then it goes to this greeny tone. And you have all these deep pur... of course I'm going to keep that one
because of the purples. Then you have like this Autumn palette. And what I really like about
this as well, because it isn't like your typical like, oh we're just gonna do a nude orangey
palette. You have this really beautiful deep burgundy
and then you also have like this shimmer, this campfire. That looks amazing. Look how...
oh, that's... really nice, really, really nice.
And then you have these nice neutrals here as well to pair with it.
And we have our Christmas shades. And you have the Christmas shades
right here, this is cute. You have your red and your green which is your Christmas, and then
you have the option to go underneath with a little bit of sparkle with this, and like the blue,
or you can keep it quite neutral and stick to the brown and the like beigey tone
on top. I'm gonna keep these. I love, love, love this brand. If you haven't checked
them out already go ahead and do that, it's Euniquebeauty.com.
And they're designed in the UK which is right here. Keep, always keep. I love that.
Of course I'm not gonna get rid of this, this is the Sigma x Disney Princess
Cinderella Palette. It's, it's just, just look at that. I love,
love, love this. I love this color selection. Of course you have this kind of like group of purple
up here as well, and the greens. The thing that I love about Sigma,
Sigma, to me I feel anyway, is such an underrated
company. They, they are always coming up with incredible creations
whether it's like a different shape makeup brush,
like, where's that brush? Oh no, I've used it. Oh no. I have one here.
The Edge Precision Brush from Sigma, the small one, one of the best brushes I've ever used.
And their brushes are so incredible. And they're always coming up with amazing
creations in ways to clean your brushes. And the palettes and their lashes,
and everything like this. And you can see in this palette as well. What I love about a lot
of eyeshadow palettes, not so much anymore, is that you can group together
palettes like this in quads or groups of threes or twos. So
we have like one quad here. Actually, I'll put square around it. We have
a second one, we have a third one, and then we have a potential fourth one here as well.
Always grouped nicely. There's so many, looks, you can always do four, four, four. There's so many different
color variations and they're all sitting right next to each other. So if you're a
beginner who doesn't really know how to like,
what, who doesn't really know what colors to group together, and a lot of people don't, and that's absolutely fine.
Because it can be difficult because some colors turn muddy when using together.
This is a really great palette to go for because it's all set out for you, as is
all their other palettes as well. And it actually came with a brush here. The
great thing about Sigma's brushes that they include in their
palettes, you don't get like a cheap version of a good brush that they have,
it's like a good brush in the palette as well. So I'm 100% gonna keep that. And I'm
just hoping, because it says Disney Princess, I'm hoping that that's like the
opening of a new collection, like a series perhaps.
Can we get Tiana next? I don't know, let me know.
Okay, Beauty Bay x Jade, this is the 42 color palette. This is still brand new to
me. So there is a lot of colors in here. Let me know, I want to know something
right, would you rather have all your shades in
in line, in color... what's considered like color order? Or, would you, do you like
this kind of like jumbled around? Some browns here, some browns over here, some
green, some greens, some blue, some blue. Or do you like it all next to each other so
you can kind of see what's going on? Let me know, let me know. But I love Beauty
Bay's formula anyway, Beauty Bay's eyeshadow formula is incredible. I would
sooner grab, like if someone was like you could only ever use one eyeshadow
formula ever, for the rest of your life, which one do you want to choose? It will
be Beauty Bay's formula because their shimmers are incredible, their mattes are
almost like this, they go on so incredibly pigmented and they blend so
easily. I have never been disappointed by a Beauty Bay own, By Beauty Bay's the brand,
by any of their products. They are always incredible. And whenever I
recommend them and people buy them because they are super affordable,
especially when there's sales and things like that, people always message me and
they're like, thank you for recommending this because this is one of the best
palettes I've ever used. So I am keeping this. I really like the color. And I,
I have this thing with neutrals where I'm like, oh but it's so neutral but, you know
what, I think we need to think about palettes where not everyone buys 50
pallets or 20 pallets a year, you know? Somebody might just buy one or two, and
if this is the only pallet they're going to use
all year, they're going to hit pan on... oh, that's really nice,
that's a really nice color, sorry. Then they need a bit of everything, right? So
this has a little bit of everything. Yeah, like it a lot.
Yeah. Keep, keep. How do you decide if you're
gonna keep something or get rid of it? Like what, what's your like, what are the
factors you look for? I'll be interested to know. Okay, so this is from Pretty
Little Thing, this is a 42 shade palette. Okay, so...
hmm... I remember using this and I really liked it at the time. I look so tired, I
am so tired. I'm just so worn out, I just have to let you know. And I
really did like it. The mattes were super, super good, good texture. The shimmers
were really nice as well.
There is, there's a lot of green in this palette, a lot of green and a lot of blue,
in comparison to say yellow or pink or purple. So the color balance, like I
immediately when you open this... like, okay, I'm gonna shut, alright, look, look away. I'm
gonna open and close it, and then tell me what like, immediately like what color
you see the most of. Green, right? That's a green palette.
You know? So it's a little bit over, it's a little
bit overwhelming. I think like when you open a palette like maybe the Jade one,
for me, your eyes kind of dart around everywhere but with this one it's
immediately green. I do really like the texture of this, however. I think these
shimmers are really, really nice and super, super like creamy as well. And the
mattes have this really, really nice pigment to them as well. So
I... you know what I'm gonna do? I'm gonna keep this one for now,
and I'm gonna give it maybe six, six months and if I don't use it within that
time then I'll go ahead and donate that one. We'll see if I actually stick to
that. Okay, so last, lastly? Finally? Last but not least, we have the All The
Colors Palette from 3ina. Now, it's pronounced Mina but it's spelt with a
3, just to confuse you.
Okay, if you don't know 3ina, 3ina is an incredibly affordable brand, they're
really, really good... good products. I worked with 3ina in...
what's this? That's a button. I worked with 3ina in Melbourne,
Melbourne Central. If you're around Melbourne Central.
I love Melbourne Central. There was some really good, really good food in that place.
Look at the green on my finger. Okay, so I really enjoy this palette. I love the
color blocking, again. So you have all your yellows and goldens and oranges
going into your pinky purples and reds, into your brownie neutrals. And
green going into your blues and into your shades just here, which I really,
really like the layout of this. I used this recently and I was extremely
impressed, which I knew I would be. And actually, I don't know if they've changed
the formula slightly but I did like this formula more in comparison to the
individual eyeshadows. I really, really liked them. I like
this, I really like this. So I'm going to keep it.
So we got rid of one palette today, so it didn't quite go to plan.
Okay, so yeah. So it didn't go quite to plan. No, you know what, don't be so hard
on yourself, me. That... we'll, I will do, I'll do more. I'll do
more and we will, we'll...
you know what, it's just because I'm running out of space very slightly, I'm
running out of space. Like I just need a little bit more room on that shelf. And
I'm not gonna allow myself to go crazy and, and go further than a bookshelf for
palettes because that's ridiculous. So when it's time, it's time, you know? Anyway,
thank you so much for joining me. Let me know your favorite... oh, best not actually,
because I might buy them. Let me know how you organize your makeup,
