00:00Hey, guys.
00:00It's Mi-Anne, and this is Beauty With Me.
00:02Today, I'm super excited because we're
00:04going to be playing with three brand new palettes
00:06that I have been using a little bit this week,
00:08but haven't really taken a full dive into it yet.
00:11I am by no means a professional makeup artist,
00:13but I really like playing with new colors.
00:15But before we get started, have you guys seen my show yet?
00:18If not, please click down here and subscribe to Refrain29
00:21so we can hang out every single Monday.
00:23Oh, wait.
00:25Let's get started.
00:26So all of these palettes recently
00:28launched within the last month or so,
00:29and they all have a really similar color selection,
00:32and they're very pink, very purple, and it's really gorgeous.
00:37I'm going to try each one out.
00:39I'm going to do a look with each of them
00:41that hopefully, if it turns out well, you'll want to recreate.
00:45I'm going to start with this palette by Huda Beauty.
00:47It's called the Desert Dusk Palette.
00:50It's made by Huda Katan.
00:51She's an amazing beauty entrepreneur,
00:53and this palette is beautiful.
00:55I've never seen a palette that has this kind of color selection in it before.
00:59It has this beautiful glitter shade,
01:01a bunch of heavier glitters, some shimmers, and a lot of matte shades.
01:05I swatched them for you so you guys can see all of the shades.
01:08They all swatch really beautifully.
01:11They feel really nice.
01:13So I'm a big fan of these peachy, warm colors,
01:17and I really like using them in the crease just to deepen things up in a very subtle way.
01:23So I just wanted to put a little bit of shadow here just as my transition shade
01:28before I get into any of the crazier colors.
01:30So I'm going to go and do it on the other eye now too.
01:34Now I'm going to go in with this saffron color.
01:39And I'm going to put that in my outer corner to deepen it up a little bit.
01:44I'm going to put this purple amethyst color all over my lid.
01:53This is the twilight glitter.
01:55I'm going to tap it onto my lid.
01:57Now on top.
01:59Woo!
02:00Look how shiny that is.
02:07This is the final look.
02:09I have to say I'm pretty pleased with it.
02:12So the only downside of this palette is the price tag.
02:15It is $65 which is definitely on the expensive side for an eyeshadow palette.
02:20And it's definitely something I would recommend to someone who likes to play with color.
02:24If you like neutral palettes, you're probably not going to like this.
02:28So you should just definitely save your money.
02:31All right, we're going to move on to the next palette,
02:32which means I have to take this eyeshadow off and start over again.
02:36Goodbye, Huda.
02:38Next up is the Natasha Denona Lila palette.
02:41I have been patiently awaiting this one.
02:44It launched earlier this month and is the most expensive out of the bunch.
02:47It is $129.
02:51So opening it up, it has this plastic film that tells you what each of the colors are.
02:57It also keeps it from getting all the like colors everywhere.
03:00So smart.
03:02I think I'm going to go with the pinky purpley shades in this palette.
03:07Kind of similar to what I did with Huda, but more smoky.
03:11This beautiful pink shade right here all over the lid.
03:15There we go.
03:19And I'm extending it out in a kind of winged out shape.
03:24Now I'm going to blend the edges just a little bit with this taupe matte shade.
03:34I'm going to go in with this violet indigoish color that I'm very, very, very excited about.
03:40I'm going to dip into it a little bit.
03:42And I'm going to put this in my outer V.
03:47I'm going to bring the same two colors, the pink and the purple, on my lower lash line.
03:52When you're wearing an eyeshadow that's so pink or red, if you don't wear a lot of mascara,
03:56you can kind of look like you have pink eye.
04:00So making sure you have a lot of black mascara on the top and bottom lashes will help.
04:04So look two, done.
04:07Final thoughts on this palette.
04:09I like it.
04:10I think they're beautiful.
04:11But I will say $130 is expensive, I think, for any makeup item.
04:18If you're a professional makeup artist or if you just love collecting eyeshadow,
04:22I think this would be a great palette for you.
04:23If you're just a normal eyeshadow user like I am, you might not necessarily need it.
04:28On to the next one.
04:30I'm going to take this off again.
04:32My eyes are going to be so raw after this, but I'm doing it for you guys.
04:38This is the She palette.
04:41Girl power.
04:42And it is more subdued than the others, but definitely still in the rosy pink and purple palette.
04:49So the first two looks I did were admittedly a little bit on the dramatic side.
04:55But I think at this time I'm going to do a little bit of a more subdued look.
05:01This dusty rose shade all over my lid.
05:06I'm going to use this slightly lighter matte shade to blend out the pinks that I just put on my
05:11lid.
05:11Just to make everything look a little bit more cohesive.
05:14And I'm going to use this gorgeous glittery shade.
05:19And it's a nice thing to put on your lid just to give it a little bit of extra oomph.
05:23I'm going to mix the pink shade and the pinky purple shade and put that under my lash line.
05:33Then instead of liner, I'm going to use an angled brush.
05:39And I'm going to dip into this purple color and mix it with this pinky purple.
05:44I'm going to use that as my liner.
05:49So honestly, for a day-to-day look, I would stop there and just put a lot of mascara on
05:56to define my eyes.
05:58So this is the final look.
06:00It is definitely simpler than the other two, but it's still kind of intense.
06:04Totally feel you if it's not for you, but I like it a lot.
06:07Final thoughts.
06:08For $16, I think it is an amazing buy.
06:11And what's cool about it is it has the matte shades.
06:14It has the pinks.
06:14It has the purples.
06:15And it even has the glittery shade, which I use all over my lid.
06:19It has that duochrome, shifty kind of shade that's kind of similar to some of the Huda palette shades.
06:2410 out of 10 would recommend to a friend.
06:27Playing with all of these eyeshadows today, I think I created some pretty cool looks, if I do say so
06:33myself.
06:33So let me know if you guys try any of these palettes and which of the three looks you like
