![]() ![]() I don’t want a big palette with 10 beiges or middle browns which I will never use, and I don’t want dusty, bad pigmented textures that will work only with a primer. That looks like you did a good job! I just binge-read your blog and I find it incredibly interesting! But I would like to make a post request for non-makeup-passionate-people, who don’t want to spend too much money on makeup, too: Could you make a few suggestions for palettes one could buy if one just wants a single really good everyday palette? I’m not that much of a makeup person and I want what you would consider a boring neutral palette: a light blending shade, a light shimmery white, a brown dark enough for smokey looks, maybe an extra black one for evening looks and 1-2 transition shades which could be middle brown, gold, rosegold, copper or aubergine. And, frankly, duping this palette felt highly appropriate since the brand made its success on duping other brands. I was thinking last night about how disappointed I was in the palette, especially because I liked the color scheme, so I decided that I wanted to try to replicate it with shadows in my collection that are high quality. ![]() And then I received several messages from people telling me that this is classic Makeup Revolution formula. I couldn't have been more disappointed in it. The colors lacked pigment, and they were dry, patchy, and difficult to blend. And even if buying this palette sends a message that people like Emily are the ones brands should be collaborating with instead of those who are racist, problematic, selfish, vapid, and dishonest, I think it was a worthwhile purchase. She really seems like she just loves talking about her passion of makeup. I appreciate that she doesn't have any sponsored content, she appears to be a very genuine person, and she doesn't seem to be a content creator for fame or money. Just look at how many red-toned palettes came out after the success of ABH Modern Renaissance (like Huda Beauty Desert Dusk, Huda Beauty Mauve Obsessions, Urban Decay Born to Run, Wet W Wild Rosé in the Air, Jeffree Star Blood Sugar, and the new Urban Decay Naked Cherry, to name a few), and that palette was inspired by the Lime Crime Venus palette.īut there is a difference between being inspired by a color scheme (and wanting to copy it for your own financial gain) and blatantly ripping off the color scheme, name, and packaging of an existing successful product, which Makeup Revolution has done on multiple occasions.Īs I mentioned in my review, if there is one "influencer" whose product I would want to buy, it's Emilynoel83. Yes, many palettes are inspired by others. I know this is a debate in the beauty community, but I am on the side of protecting intellectual property. I had never before tried a Makeup Revolution product, in large part because I don't really like their business model of largely ripping off successful products from other brands. If you saw my post yesterday, you'll know that I was very disappointed in The Wants palette by Makeup Revolution The Emily Edit. ![]()
