THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

alright, here it is. use this thread to request swatches. the guidelines are up to you and your needs: single swatches, comparison swatches, specific skin tone swatches

 

when comparisons are requested, feel free to provide whatever you have of that request--i want anyone to participate and contribute if they want to. have fun, hope this is helpful !

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

The Violet Voss I Love U Cherry Much Eyeshadow Palette swatches for @QueenMarceline โค๏ธ๐Ÿ’

 

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

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Thatโ€™s a really pretty palette @cianni !

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

@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!

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

@cianni Oh my WOW! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜ Thank you SOOO much, you are a rockstar and did an amazing job โค๏ธ I absolutely need this palette. 

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

@QueenMarceline As added justification for the purchase, thereโ€™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!)

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

@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 ๐Ÿค—

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

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

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

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

 

Emblem

Hilt

IMG_3073.JPEGIMG_3076.JPEGIMG_3078.JPEG

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

IMG_3079.JPEGIMG_3081.JPEG

Glow- the name is appropriate

IMG_3095.JPEGIMG_3097.JPEGIMG_3098.JPEGIMG_3101.JPEG

 

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

IMG_3089.JPEGIMG_3092.JPEGIMG_3093.JPEG

 

Glint- almost identical to Adornment except with a translucent base

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Thank you for sharing these, they are sooo stunning!! @makeitup305 ๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿคฉ

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

@CynthieLu I need to swatch some more of my collection. Let me know if thereโ€™s any shades in particular youโ€™re interested in and Iโ€™ll be happy to swatch them for you and post them on the ๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿฆ‹ Clionadh Cosmetics ๐Ÿฆ‹๐Ÿ’– page.

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

(I only mentioned the thread in case you ever feel like slowing them off ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ’– @makeitup305. Don't feel you have to at all, these pictures are perfect where they are ๐Ÿ˜€ )

 

Holy moly I can't ask for swatches, they are so beautiful! I won't be able to resist a purchase. ๐Ÿ™ˆ๐Ÿ™ˆ 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? 

 

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

@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 theyโ€™re interested it. Iโ€™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 donโ€™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 donโ€™t live in a humid climate or have oily eyelids. 

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

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

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

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

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

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.

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

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

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

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

@lmaster youโ€™re welcome! Let me know if thereโ€™s any other shades that catch your eye online and I can see if i have them to swatch. Itโ€™s hard to get good swatches for multichromes sometimes. 

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

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

IMG_3027.JPEG

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

IMG_3028.JPEG

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.

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

These are so great to see thank you @makeitup305 ! ๐Ÿ˜ I keep looking at the Mario palette too. Itโ€™s so soft and lovely and probably more subtle than the ND of course. It appears very wearable! Ugh. I think Iโ€™ve swatched it in store way too many times! ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

@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?
