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 !

Yes I think it will be good for you @Ispend2much6 ! Let me know ok?! Folks seem to be divided on it from what I’m seeing but I loved the shade too! Did you get any? 

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

@Sunnysmom  I think I would like every shade except the coral and brightest one. Didn't get any yet. 

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Makes sense @Ispend2much6 . Ribbon is a very wearable soft red. Not quite as pink as on my pic oddly. Lol 

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

These swatches are so stunning! Those lippies are fantastic, such neat shades it’s always nice to have a pink lippie on hand. The pallete is gorgeous is it shadow or blush? I’m still learning haha such brilliant shades and gorgeous liner! Love these! @Sunnysmom 

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Hi @peculiarzmakeup ! 🤗🥰 Yes the Byredo is a new eye shadow palette tho I do think the end burgundy could make a very cool blush! Great idea! 💡 They use a lot of fun shades for eyes and lips and their packaging is also so interesting! Some of the formulas for eye shadows are different in varying textures. This one is a little bit firmer than some of their others like the very large square palette from last year. ( I forget the name off my feeble brain! ) . That palette is more powdery and silky vs this one but this one builds and I love these smoky shades as not a ton of lines do them it seems. I’m all about the cool tones in a sea of pinks! 🤣

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

It is such a beautiful pallete! Thanks for the info on it! I just got into eyeshadow I never used to wear it I love how it is multi purposed like can be used in different places so neat and so lovely!!! @Sunnysmom 

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Shadows can be so creative and fun @peculiarzmakeup ! I have some of their older shadows too if you ever want any swatches. 😊

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

would love that! ❤️😍 the shades are so neat  @Sunnysmom 

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

I’ll put some together for you soon @peculiarzmakeup ! 💞

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

These are all so pretty, @Sunnysmom !  I really like the Byredo palette.

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Me too @Titian06 ! It’s so fun to see shades like this. I’m sure I have some but not quite like these. 😆

Indoor and outdoor swatches of the MAKEUP BY MARIO Ethereal Eyes Eyeshadow Palette: Moonlight and Urban Decay Moondust Space Cowboy Glitter Eyeshadow Quad

Mario vs UD shimmers

-If you haven't tried or swatched either formula, Mario's is much thinner in texture (almost like a finely-milled face powder)

and some shades are pretty trasluscent. I wouldn't say that you need a primer but it help them adhere a little better (here they are on dry skin after a few other swatches and they wouldn't stick as well). The UD has more substance and opacity. Only two of the UD shades in this quad are super sparkly, the other two still have some sparkle but not the diamond-like effect of the other two.

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Great swatches, thanks! I want to swatch them both in store but I’m probably good with the Patrick Ta duos I got this time. (Plus all the other palettes, ahem.) @makeitup305 

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Thank you for sharing all these gorgeous swatches I adore the Mario pallete and all the other ones too but those shades are striking! So lovely to see all the variety lovely photos too! @makeitup305 

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

thanks @peculiarzmakeup !

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

So pretty on you @makeitup305 . I just added the Mario from the sale. I know it’s more sheer but I kind of like how it appears to be able to be built up. Or at least I hope so! The UD is very fun for you! 

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

@Sunnysmom I used it today. I liked the look but wasn't too wowed. Cool toned looks don't look as flattering on me so I have to give it a few more tries before I decide on keeping it. Let me know what you think when you try it!

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Will do @makeitup305 ! Very soon! 💞

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

The Urban Decay looks pretty, @makeitup305! I hadn’t really been following it but I like it! 

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

@curlychiquita Space Cowboy Rides again is a true winner if you like sparkle. I haven't done a full look with it yet, though. The two shades on the right are not as sparkly as I would like but I want to see how the ones on the left look layerd over them to see if it makes the quad worth it.

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Thanks for the Mario swatches and your thoughts, @makeitup305 !  I was considering this palette, but it wasn't really doing anything for me.  Your swatches and thoughts have helped me make up my mind that this one isn't for me.
