The Violet Voss I Love U Cherry Much Eyeshadow Palette swatches for @QueenMarceline ❤️🍒

im not the best at swatches, so my apologies that some are a little chunky (I pressed a little too hard). These are a swirl or two in the pan on my fingers, and one swipe swatch you can see the opacity

That’s a really pretty palette @cianni !

[cianni]

@makeitup305 Thank you! I picked it up on a whim when I was feeling like experimenting with some color, and have been really impressed with it so far!

[QueenMarceline]

@cianni Oh my WOW! 😍😍😍 Thank you SOOO much, you are a rockstar and did an amazing job ❤️ I absolutely need this palette. 

[cianni]

@QueenMarceline As added justification for the purchase, there’s a couple shades in the middle row are SO stunning as blush. Just go in with a veeeery light hand haha (learned that the hard way!)

[QueenMarceline]

@cianni I think I'll get great use of most of the colors, this will be my first VV palette actually I'm very excited to try 🤗

[cianni]

@QueenMarceline Its definitely one of those brands I feel like nobody talks about anymore, but a lot of their products are pretty solid!

[makeitup305]

@lmaster here are some swatches to other shades that are similar-ish to the ones you asked me to swatch

Emblem

Hilt

Lucidium- hard to see but it has a light pink base but it's mostly translucent

Glow- the name is appropriate

Adornment- similar to Lucidium but it shifts gold/champagne instead of green. The base is deeper/more pigmented

Glint- almost identical to Adornment except with a translucent base

[CynthieLu]

Thank you for sharing these, they are sooo stunning!! @makeitup305 🤩🤩

[makeitup305]

@CynthieLu I need to swatch some more of my collection. Let me know if there’s any shades in particular you’re interested in and I’ll be happy to swatch them for you and post them on the 💖🦋 Clionadh Cosmetics 🦋💖 page.

[CynthieLu]

(I only mentioned the thread in case you ever feel like slowing them off 😉💖 @makeitup305. Don't feel you have to at all, these pictures are perfect where they are 😀 )

Holy moly I can't ask for swatches, they are so beautiful! I won't be able to resist a purchase. 🙈🙈 Those ones are incredible. My eyes instantly grew in size looking at those shifts. Right? So stunning!

Can I ask about the wear and fallout? 

[makeitup305]

@CynthieLu What I should do is post a list of the shades I own in the thread and people can ask for swatches of the ones they’re interested it. I’ve found it hard to get good swatches online, especially with decent lighting.  I find them to have decent wear but I usually wear a primer. I don’t get much fallout during the day. I might have a bit of creasing but nothing major. The shades are not very thick compared to some other multichromes so they crease less than some others. That said I don’t live in a humid climate or have oily eyelids. 

[lmaster]

They are just on a different level of beauty!! @makeitup305 

[makeitup305]

They really are @lmaster I used Lucidium today and it’s stunning, I forget how vibrant they can look on the eyes.

[makeitup305]

For @lmaster, swatches of some of my Clionadh shades. I stole this style of swatching from a Youtuber whose name I can't remember. It's honestly the best way to capture multichromes. These are all over the Karla Cosmetics Fix Potion Eye Primer but no glitter glue. I rubbed it in with my finger to smooth out the pigments.

Gloaming

Diadem

Tessera- this one it's harder to capture the slight orange/pink shift. It's a little more satin/less reflective than some of the others

Lux

[lmaster]

Wow!!! Those are stunning!!! Thank you @makeitup305 

[makeitup305]

@lmaster you’re welcome! Let me know if there’s any other shades that catch your eye online and I can see if i have them to swatch. It’s hard to get good swatches for multichromes sometimes.

Swatches for @Mellmars1185 of the MAKEUP BY MARIO Ethereal Eyes Eyeshadow Palette as well as some comparisons to Natasha Denona I Need a Nude Eyeshadow Palette . I was rushing to not lose the light so they're a little all over the place.

Swatches by column of the Mario

Angle to show that the sparkle shades have a pretty translucent base

The 1st, 3rd, 7th, 9th, and 10th are Mario, the rest are the closest shades in the ND palette

1st, 4th, and 7th are Mario, all the others are ND. 

They're not twins but they're definitely related. I would say overall the Mario is slightly warmer and the ND is more neutral with a few warmer shades. For both palettes, some of the sparkle shades are more translucent at the base and have a more topper finish while others are denser and have a more concentrated pigment and glittery finish.

These are so great to see thank you @makeitup305 ! 😍 I keep looking at the Mario palette too. It’s so soft and lovely and probably more subtle than the ND of course. It appears very wearable! Ugh. I think I’ve swatched it in store way too many times! 🤦🏻‍♀️ 😭

[Mellmars1185]

@makeitup305 Thank you so much for the swatches. While they are similar, i am drawn more to the Makeup by Mario palette. Do you have a preference?
