Hey guys, welcome back and hello to you new people too.
It is time for another anti-haul video.
This is my anti-haul number eight.
If you haven't seen any of my previous anti-haul videos I will put a link to all of my anti-hauls
in the description box below so you can check them out.
My usual disclaimer applies.
Just because I am not going to be buying these items does not mean that they are bad items.
That just means that they are not a fit for my makeup collection, and I'm going to be
sharing with you the reasons that they are not a fit for my collection.
If they're a fit for your collection you should absolutely buy them.
I'm not doing this to bash brands, I'm just doing this to balance out all of the YouTubers
who are saying buy, buy, buy, buy, buy this.
I'm basically trying to promote smart consumerism.
Anyway, let's go ahead and jump into my anti-haul.
First up for my anti-haul what I'm not going to buy, Natasha Denona has come out with a
Sculpt and Glow palette.
This is basically a highlight and contour palette, and it's got like six shades.
While it looks like it's really nice, and I'm sure it's very, very high quality, I feel
like at this point highlight and contour palettes are kind of a thing of the past, so it's a
little like it's to little to late.
I feel like the hype around contouring is really dying down, so releasing a highlight
and contour palette now just doesn't really make sense.
While I do think it's going to be a very high quality item, I just feel like it's not for
me.
In general, I personally can't use all six shades in a highlight and contour palette,
because they aren't a fit for my pale skin.
I find that I'm better off usually buying individual shades to contour with and highlight
with, so it's one of those that's easy for me to pass on.
Next up, Natasha Denona is releasing a Sunset Palette.
Now this palette had me so excited when I heard the name, because when I think sunset
I think like pinks, and purples, and oranges, and reds, and golds.
I actually had like rainbow sunset hair at one point.
I will insert a picture so you can check that out, because I think it looked absolutely
awesome when I had it.
I was expecting a lot from this palette, and I was hoping that there'd be some duochromes
in there and everything, because Natasha Denona does make some really nice shimmery and duochrome
eyeshadows.
Then I saw the palette, and I was like oh it's an Anastasia Beverly Hills modern renaissance
wanna be.
That was disappointing, but I was like well maybe it swatches better than it looks in
the pan.
I was wrong.
Oh hell no.
When you see the swatches it's easy to go, what I'm not going to buy, I'm not going to
touch that, because it looks so boring.
It's a neutral palette with very few pops of actual sunset shades.
There's like maybe two colors, like a duochrome that looks really interesting, but that's
it.
With the price tag it's like $129, it's an easy palette for me to pass on.
If you're new to my channel you probably don't know that I bought the Natasha Denona purple
blue palette as an impulse buy when I was at the makeup show in New York for like $239.
Then later on had major makeup regrets, because I couldn't return it, and I don't use more
than probably half the palette.
For me it's an easy thing to pass on.
I felt like they could've done so much with the sunset theme, and to leave it as another
neutral palette, totally disappointed.
Lime Crime came out with this Moms I'd Like to Follow collection.
When I heard the name Moms I'd Like to Follow I was like, okay I have to go see what this
is all about.
Then I saw the colors.
The colors themselves look pretty nice.
I looked at the names for the colors.
The names for the colors are so cringe worthy.
I mean I don't know who thought them up and thought it was a good idea, but that's not
even the worst part about this collection.
The worst part in my opinion is that comes in a cigarette case.
I think it's tacky as fuck.
I don't think any brand should be doing anything to promote smoking, because I don't think
smoking is cool, and smoking leads to cancer, and that's just horrible.
In my opinion that's a total fail.
Not going to buy it.
Next up is the Becca Chrissy Teigen collaboration.
Now when I saw this palette I was like, that's actually got really pretty packaging, I can't
wait to see what's inside.
I saw what was inside and I was like, ooh those are kind of coraly.
I personally think this is a gorgeous palette.
I looked at the swatches for it, and I'm kind of torn because, on the one had I really wanted
to buy it because there's like this gorgeous sort of coral pink blush in it, and there's
also a really a pretty like pinky rose highlighter, but then there's a contour that I wouldn't
be able to wear.
I had to remind myself that even though it's only four colors I probably would only be
able to use two colors the way they're intended, and two colors I'd have to find ultimate means
for, so it didn't really make sense to me to pick up the palette, but I thought it looked
really, really nice.
I think basically when I looked at the palette I was really attracted to beach nectar and
hibiscus bloom, which are the two new shades.
It's looks really pretty, but if you have pale skin like mine it probably is not going
to work for you.
Even though I think it looks gorgeous I'm going to skip it.
Next up, Milk Makeup has come out with a new holographic highlighter stick.
The color is called Mars.
Now this is like a gorgeous peach, with like a pinky violet shift.
Looks stunning, however I realized when I was looking a swatches of it that I already
own a similar color.
I have this color from Aromaleigh called Ostara, and it is very similar.
Hopefully you can see that in the video.
It's like a peach with a pinky violet shift.
It's really gorgeous, and since I already own such a color I'm like don't need to buy
it.
Next up is the Too Faced Clover Palette.
Too Faced is releasing this Clover Palette.
It's basically inspired by Jerrod Blandino's little chihuahua Clover.
He's a cute dog and everything, and I've seen so many horribly photoshopped photos of this
palette where they upped the saturation, or they pastelize it, and it's really hard to
tell what the actual colors are going to be.
Some of the colors seem like a lot of fun shades.
It looks like there's a couple really pretty purples, or rose gold, and a nice bright turquoise
blue, but then I remind myself I really, really hate Too Faced purples.
They apply like crap, they always have really shitty pigmentation, so there's no point in
me buying this palette for just a few key shades when it's also filled with a ton of
browns that I would never use.
Yeah, not going to buy it.
Next up is the Violet Voss Matte About You Palette.
When I saw this palette I almost bought it, because it's all mattes, it's 20 shades, and
I actually really like the Violet Voss eyeshadow formula.
It's a more sheer formula that's easier to build up and blend out, and I think it's so
easy to blend out because it's on the sheer side.
I like the formula, I find it easy to use.
The palette that I have from Violet Voss is the Drenched Metal Palette, and I've actually
used that on three different friends now to do their makeup, and found it just so, so
easy to blend.
I feel like for me their formula works really, really well.
Which is why this all mattes palette was tempting, but then I saw swatches of the mattes palette
and basically it's just all oranges and browns, it's all warm tones.
I wouldn't get use out of most of it.
If it had been like split between like warms, and cools, and I don't know, something else
I probably would've got it, but because it's just all orange and brown, like all of the
shades we've seen a million times over for the past two years, I'm just going to skip
it.
I'm hoping that they decide to come out with a cooler tone palette, or a mattes palette
that has like more rainbow colors in it, just something else, because I like their formula.
Next up is Juvia's Place Magic by Juvia's.
Now I don't care what is inside this palette, I will not be buying it.
I had a horrible experience purchasing from Juvia's Place that you'll hear all about in
an upcoming rant video, but I'm never going to buy from them.
They have shitty customer service.
I don't care what is inside this palette.
It could be all purples, all duochromes, all blues, all teals I will not buy it, I will
not touch it, I want nothing to do with them.
Next up is the Ciate Trendmood Palette.
When I saw this palette I felt like this was a very confused palette.
I know it's crowdsourced, I know it's basically stuff that all of Trendmood's followers have
voted on, but when you look at it it's just it's a mess.
You've got all of these blue cool toned shades, and then you have all of these warm like red
and orange shades, and you have like these two kind of pink and purple colors that are
just out there.
The biggest problem with the palette in my opinion is that there are no mattes.
It's all like shimmery shades, and maybe like I think one or two satins, so you don't really
have a good range of textures.
I feel like the reds and oranges have really been overdone.
While I love the blue colors, and I don't really feel like you see blues often enough,
because there's not a matte that goes with them I'm like, what do you do with these colors.
Anyway, I feel like it looks like it's a complete mess, but that's just my opinion.
However, that's why I'm not going to buy it.
Next up is the Pat McGrath Dark Star set.
Now this is an absolutely stunning looking makeup set.
Oh my God.
I had it in my Sephora cart and I almost pulled the trigger during the Sephora VIB Rouge sale,
but then I was like no it's $130, and I started looking at like all of the different items
in it, and I'm like there's no way in hell I would use the eye gloss, because I have
hooded eyes.
If you try to put eye gloss on hooded eyes you end up with a hot mess.
I would just never use everything that was in the set, so even though I like a couple
of the colors, and I think they're beautiful I think I'm better off going and looking for
dupes of the colors that are like $6 per eyeshadow, or $10 per eyeshadow, rather than buying that
set for $130 and then using like only two or three of the items in it, because it's
$130.
It's an expensive set.
That's really kind of how I feel about most the Pat McGrath stuff.
I think they're gorgeous, but really overpriced.
Last but not least is the Urban Decay Basquiat blush palette.
Now you know I love Urban Decay.
Urban Decay's blushes are my go to blushes.
I wear them pretty much every single day.
I love that Urban Decay came out with another blush palette.
I have the Gwen Stefani palette and I love it.
I love Urban Decay's blushes.
The formula works really well for me, they last all day.
I'm wearing them right now.
I'm wearing X-Rated and I'm wearing Rapture.
I really love them, they work for me, but when I saw the palette I was like, oh I already
own one of the blushes in it, because I own X-Rated.
I don't own the plum color in it, which I really do like, and I think it would be gorgeous.
I would never use the bronzer in it, because I don't really wear bronzer, and I'm iffy
on the highlighter, because I don't know if it would work for my pale skin.
It might be to dark.
While I think it's a gorgeous palette filled with quality products I'm not going to buy
it if I'm not going to be able to use more than one or two items it.
It just doesn't make sense to buy it and only use half the items.
Anyway.
