 Well, this one is the long anticipated video for me. I know that many of you guys have asked over and over again about my eyeshadow palette video and when I was going to be doing that. And this is the one. We're going to get into it. So please stay tuned, maybe in the middle of this video. Somewhere in this video, there is going to be a fun giveaway for you guys. So I am excited to do that as well. Now I'm going to be ranking my palettes and how I decided to rank them was how much I grabbed for them, how much I felt like the quality was good in them, how I felt like they blended on my eyes, felt like the variety in them was really good. You could get more than just one look out of them or I felt like there were ones that I reached for because I love to the look out of them. And I think that's where you're going to be surprised at my number one. Let's get into this so we don't have to have it be 15 years long today. Coming in at number 15 is Wet and Wilds 32 pan eyeshadow palette. This is one that they came out with at the end of the year. This is their color icon formula and you guys for the price, I think this is like 15 or 20 dollars. I'm not exactly sure, but for the price, this does not disappoint. This is so much like their formula in their, I think it's their 10 pan palette, that exact same formula. And there are some duplicates in here from those palettes. So if you have a lot of those, you might not need to purchase this, but I have enjoyed this palette so much. And I'm not going to be doing complete swatches for you guys of all these palettes. So I'm going to be doing about 10 out of each palette, depending on how many there is, but really the proof in the putting on eyeshadow palettes for me is how it wears on your eyes and what it does. And this palette right here wears just like the color icon. They have the creaminess to them. They've done such a good job on the formula and the metallics are beautiful. They're bold and they're stark and they're gorgeous. But the mats in here are very creamy and very saturated as well. So the reason that this palette is down there at the bottom is because I got it towards the end of 2019 and I haven't had a chance to work with every single shade, but I can very confidently say that this was one of my favorite palettes of the year and every eye look that I've done out of it so far has been a really good eye look. Coming in at number 14 is the Dominique Cosmetics Rustic Glam. I love Dominique Cosmetics formula. It's a great formula, but I really love her choices. It just makes me feel like I want to be bold and I want to experiment a little bit. And you guys, I am the worst at swatching, so please forgive me, but they're the swatches from there. I really loved the blues and the greens in here. This one right here, whether you can see it or not, these two right here have a green cast to them and they're so pretty. Loved the pinks and just felt like this palette was all around just a beautiful palette to work with. It made me feel like I wanted to be even more creative with my eye looks. You guys know that I love color, but this one was like nothing's really set out for you. Nothing is really laid out for you. So your creativity kind of had to be kicked into high gear. And I felt like that's what this palette did. And the formula was fantastic. Coming in at number 13 is the Kathleen Lights and ColourPop Sojaded Palette. This palette is such a well laid out, well thought out palette as far as all of it goes. I don't appreciate in any of ColourPop's their heavy, chunky glitter. That's for another video with that we can talk about. But again, you guys, for me, the color payoff on both the metallics and the mats were fantastic. ColourPop is so good. But the thing about ColourPop is they just crank them out, crank them out, crank them out, and then they discontinue just as fast. But I don't think that they're going to be discontinuing this one for quite a while because I know that they have their original Dream Street palette with her that is still available and they continue to make it. It's a big hit. And this one has been a big hit this year as well. If you're looking for a warm look, if you're looking for a metallic look, if you're looking for a jewel toned look, you can go right into this palette and you won't be disappointed. And I just think that they nailed every color in here. I feel like, except for the glitters, I have reached for just about every color in here and use them and just thought that they were so good. Coming in at number 12 is the Sea Color Cosmetics. This is their Savannah palette. This is an all matte palette, which was to dupe one of Natasha Denona's palettes. And you guys, the mats in here are phenomenal. They blend so well. I think this palette cost me about eight dollars, something like that. And for that amount, I still can't believe that this is an all matte palette that you get such a high payoff with. And so here are the colors right here. I normally almost always reach for a palette that has some sort of a shimmer to put on my lid. But the light colors in here, there's a gray right here. And then the light pinker ones right here, I can put on my lid and they just brighten up my look. They just make it look so pretty. You will find that these blend together so well and you will find that the color payoff is there. And also the longevity of them is there. This is just, it's just a good palette. It's just a fantastic palette. Coming in at number 11 is the Nine Pen Palette from Juvia's Place. And this is the Nomad Palette. This palette just for some reason drew me in and you guys know that I am not big, a big orange wearer or big yellow wearer, but I can use every single color in here except for that super bright yellow right there. I can even make this gold one into a good look. And if you guys have never tried the Juvia's Place formula, you've been looking for something that keeps you on that neutral side, but also can give you a little bit of color. If you like warm tones a little bit, then this is just a really good palette to start off with. And the reason that I loved it is because this color right here in the middle is the star of the show. It's right there on the top. And it is just the most beautiful silky smooth metallic color, but I can really say that all of these pans are silky and smooth as far as Juvia's Place goes. I own almost every Juvia's Place palette and I did buy several of hers that came out this year, but only two of them made it into my top 15. And this was one of them. So love that one from Juvia's Place. At number 10 is the BH Cosmetics Fairy Lights Palette. This came out as part of their holiday set. BH Cosmetics kind of fell off my radar this year. There wasn't a lot of them in there that I was so attracted to that I felt like I just wanted to run out and buy, but this when they came out, I'm like, OK, sucked in, going to go go grab that one. This packaging is all glitter on the outside. And then it is raised right here in their logo, which I thought was really great. They do have a nice mirror in this packaging. And then obviously the colors in here. And I just really, really like this color scheme as far as they're still being neutrals, but they're being the blues and the pink. And then when I started working with them, I'm like, OK, this is a really, really good palette. I'm pretty sure they still have this on the BH website. I know they do. But I have enjoyed working with this over and over again, and it has created some absolutely stunning looks for me. Number nine is the Festival Palette from Profusion Cosmetics. I actually purchased this one because Emily Noel did a review on it and she really liked it. There was actually one color in here, and of course, it's going to be the purple color that really disappointed me. But the rest of the colors I really felt like I could work with. I could get good payoff with this whole entire line over here. Totally neutral, total neutrals over here. And then everything in between you could just pop color. So if you wanted to get this because you're thinking, oh, I really want to try color, Mrs. Melissa has been saying, try colors, see what you think. These are going to be great for pops on the lid or they're going to be great as liners underneath to just dip your toe into some color if you're not used to it. And I do feel like that that color payoff is there. And I just think that this all around just makes a really great palette for not too much money. Coming in at number eight is the Color Pop and Gimme Better Flies Palette. I think they did such a good job on these palettes as they came out in November and December. And I just really fell in love with these. I had the hardest time picking out which of these was going to go into this lineup. But this one I chose because it is on those lighter colors that I absolutely love, the colors that are just such an easy color to use for a cool or a warm tone. You have your pinks, you have your peaches, you have the colors that you can deepen up with down here. You have the shimmers, the metallics. And I just am really drawn to this. So like every time that I do a look and I feel like the look has gotten a little bit too dark, I have been reaching for this shade right here, which is a very pretty peach color and it brightens up my look. I even did that on my look today. So this is one that I have been immensely enjoying using almost every time I do a look. I just pop it open. I feel very inspired by it. The next palette at number seven, you guys, I did not purchase this when it first came out. As a matter of fact, when I first thought I was like, oh my gosh, what are you guys trying to copy color pop or what? Because the colors in the Coral Palette, the Nubian three Coral Palette were so similar inside that I thought, well, I'm not really too interested in that. So I didn't buy it. Then I went into Ulta and I swatched this and boom in the cart because you guys, this palette is amazing as far as creating a look with both cool and warm tones and coming up with something so completely unique that I hadn't seen for a long time. This just completely won me over with those gray metallics and the cool tones and then being able to put the pop of the warm tones in there with it. You guys, this one, honestly, because I'm in love with the Juvies Place formula anyway, as far as pigment, blendability, lasting power, I just was like, wow, I can't believe that I wasn't even interested in this. And now I'm reaching for it constantly. The colors as they come together are just something different like this color up here, extremely cool. All of these colors down here cool, but then you have all of those beautiful corals that come into that cool and they can set that look off. And yeah, it completely won me over as soon as I dipped my finger into it. At number six is the Morphe Hot Spot Palette. And you guys, I actually purchased three different Morphe palettes this year for with my purple one. But I found myself reaching for this one all the time because of this blue scheme in here. And you guys know how much I love to wear a sky blue or a bright blue on my lid. It's just a look that I absolutely love. But I felt like I wanted to put this into the favorites because it did have this neutral tones in here, too. Or the more warm tone, everyday tone, its office appropriate, whatever you needed it to do, it can do. And if you're really drawn to the warm tones, there are those over there. And mixing the two of them together, you can actually get into like more of a purple tone, if you decide to mix the reds with the blues, you get really beautiful purple tones, the pinks also just felt myself reaching for this one over and over again and doing those beautiful blue looks and I could transition into a purple if I felt like it. So just a gorgeous palette. Love the new formula, whatever Morphe's done on there. OK, the number five spot I have put two of Colour Pops monochromatic palettes in here and you guys, honestly, if there is a color that just speaks to you in this whole line of their monochromatics, just grab it because their quality is just that good and I have been absolutely loving it. I couldn't choose between these two. So I had to put them both in here because I just think that these palettes that they decided to do this year are next level and it's my pleasure palette, which is the purple one up here and then the Blue Moon palette down here, which is the blue one. So I have Blue Moon and then it's my pleasure. And you guys, I have the lilac one. I have the green one. I have the pink one. I just have found the quality to be, you know, the same all the way across. It's really easy to blend them. Really great way to, you know, dip your toe into colors. You guys know that I don't have a problem with that whatsoever. But I think for the money, these are each $12. They go on sale all the time. But I think for the money and that you can get so such a variety of colors is just fantastic. I watched Sabrina declutter her purple one this morning and I was almost in tears. But you know, we're all so different. And I totally understand that we get so overwhelmed with how many we have to review as influencers. You guys, I only have two palettes in this whole lineup that are high. And that's how good I feel like the drugstore palettes are. But I really did need to put the Jackie Aina and Anastasia Beverly Hills palette in here. They released so many palettes this year. And I felt like so many of them fell very, very short. But this one was just right up there with Modern Renaissance Soft Glam Sultry. This palette is fantastic. So if you can still get it, I would recommend that you do. I will make sure that I link anything below that I find out. So this row over here is all of the mats. And this row over here is all the metallics out of here. Feel amazing quality and gorgeous colors. And I just felt so inspired when I opened this. There were so many that she released this year that I was just like they fell short. They fell so short for me. But this one, I was just all over that, you guys. I'm so glad that I got it. It's one that I feel like is up there with all of her highest ranking palettes that we were, you know, like went crazy over the Modern Renaissance. I wish more people had gone crazy for this one, because I do feel like it's just a fantastic one. As usual, you get the nice brush in there. You get a good mirror in here. And this packaging was so much fun, too, because it had that dual chrome holographic effect on it, just so pretty. Jackie Stamp, you could see all I mean, you know, her hand you could just see in this palette because I just felt like it was it was a definite Jackie Aina palette. And I'm so glad that I got that one this year. Number three, you guys, is one that actually has come to me very recently in the past few weeks, but I've not been able to put this down. And it's what I'm wearing on my eyes today. I've reached for this so many times because every single look that I've done, I felt like I just was in love with it. Maybe this is just my skin tone. I don't know. But this is the Flutterby palette by ColourPop. And the packaging on these, you guys, this was so much fun. Like I said before, it's just so pretty. But what was inside of this was gorgeous. There is only one in here that is a glitter. I do actually like that one because it doesn't have the huge chunky glitter in it. And I can use a glitter glue and get away with that and use it. So I have really actually liked that one. But the other colors in here, you guys, this mauvey, very cool toned gorgeousness, I couldn't help myself. Part of the reason I think that this spoke to me so much is I could do a very light look if I wanted to. Very soft look, very just lounge around the house look. And then I could just bump it up to an evening look or a very glam look if I wanted to too. And like I said, it is what I have on my eyes today, along with that one color from the Flutterby or Gimme Betterfly palette. And I just wanted to really make sure that this was in my lineup because even though I've only had it, like I said, through the month of December, whenever it came about, this has just stolen my heart. And it's just one of those ones that I think I can see myself just never getting tired of this. I might even order a backup to it. I almost put this in at number one, but then I kind of changed my mind. And you'll see why here in a second. And as a bonus, I know that this is not an eyeshadow palette. And I'm kind of sneaking this in here. But my yearly favorites video was so long and I wanted to put these eyeshadows. These are the L'Oreal Infallible Eyeshadows, the singles. They're supposed to be 24 hour wear. I feel like they truly are a very long wearing formula and I absolutely love them. So I have some on my hand right here today. So the top one up here is a pink one. I have to have my glasses to see this and I still can't see it. It's so dang little, you guys, but it's always something pink. And I'll make sure that I link it, list it up there at the top. And then the second one is a navy blue color, which is so saturated and pretty. It's midnight blue right there. And then the next one is a very periwinkle blue. This one is oh, this is small, too. Timeless blue spark, that's that one right there. The silver one that is right here. This is one of my favorites because again, it has that little cast of just a little bit of purple pink in it, liquid diamonds. I think that is so pretty. And then the one on the bottom that is the green is the golden sage. And I have used all of these. I think they're fantastic formula. You put pop them on your eyelids for a pop of color just for fun. And I think that they're a formula that has gotten lost over time. And I just I absolutely love them. And I wanted to make sure I mentioned them for you guys because they're just they're that good. So I had said to you guys very recently that I was not going to be doing giveaways that actually said that in the title. And that is how it's going to be from now on. I'm going to pop little giveaways in here and there, maybe one, maybe two a month, just depending on how my budget does. So today I've just been kind of stuffing this fun little makeup bag with some of the things that I really love. This is a set that I came across during the holidays. This is the elf best of it has a sponge. They're poor, less putty primer of jelly highlighter and then a very pretty lip gloss in that set right there. So you're going to be getting that. And then the beauty creations bag that is just a really pretty, like almost a champagne color. And I put two of my favorite Maybelline lipsticks in here. One is called Rose Embrace and the other one is called Nude Lust. This is the Cody Airspun highlighter that I absolutely adore in snowmatch ice. I put that in my last giveaway. I got a little sample of the Luminoso from Milani in their baked blush. I put my favorite color in here of the elf primer infused blush. And this is always rosy. I also put in one of the Wet and Wild 10 pan palette. This is a tart palette from the rainforest of this sea. And I'm having a hard time because my hands are so full. There are the colors right there. I just knew that it wasn't one that I would get a lot of use out of. So I thought I would pass it along to you guys. And then I purchased the new Aurora palette from Alter Ego. And here came a little PR one. So I have one now and you guys want to get one now too. This Aurora palette is supposed to be a dupe for another Natasha Denona. And it has some of the most beautiful warm tones in there and a little sample of one of my favorite perfumes, the Dolce and Gabbana light blue. I'm getting very tongue tied because I've been talking for a very long time. And then there's a little sample, not sample, really. It's a little refill of the Ofra Rodeo drive highlighter. You guys will fall in love with that. Put it in one of your Z palettes or whatever in the bottom of this bag. It is filled with brushes and that is what the giveaway is going to be. As far as contest rules, I like to make this as easy and simple as possible on all of us. So last time we talked about where you are from right now, this time, I would love to know your place of birth. I think that's so interesting to know that people have moved around in their life because I've kind of have been one of those plants that have just stayed where they were rooted in the beginning. Tell me your place of birth and then maybe also tell me if you had a favorite eyeshadow palette or not this year. I will announce here on this video in the comments section. I will tell the winner that they have won. I will announce that I have picked a winner on Instagram, Facebook, and on the community tab here that will come up on your feet. If you're obviously subscribed to me, that is one of the things too. Why didn't I say that? Please subscribe, ring the bell, make sure you like all of those things that really helped me out with the videos so that it can get out there. Mat number two and a palette that has not left my side all year is the Alter Ego Temptress Palette. This is a dupe for the Sultry Palette from ABHN. Although I do love the Sultry Palette, I thought that the dupe was almost better. Some of these mats in here are almost creamier and just the quality in here was phenomenal. And I was hooked on Alter Ego the second that I put my finger into these and started using them on my eyes. I was like, you guys, you got it down and I was not disappointed. So whether you wanted to go warm, whether you wanted to go cool, whether you wanted to go glam, smoky, whatever you want to do, it is in this palette. This color right here, as you can see, I don't know if you can see or not very well, but that color has been dipped into by me and it has a divot out of it already because I've used it so much, but that black in there is great for darkening up any look, gorgeous, great, gorgeous, great over here. Excuse me, that I have used over and over again just for a very soft, very cool toned look. If you just wanted to go for a matte look, you have that. And if you just wanted to really amp it up, go smoky. You've got that very gorgeous glam. It's a Sultry Palette as the name, the original name from ABH says, I think this palette is gorgeous. I can't wait to see what else this company has and I just am a huge proponent of theirs because I think they do such a fantastic job. OK, at the number one spot. Can you guys guess what I picked as my number one palette of the year? I bet you can't because I was even surprised when I started narrowing these down and writing them down. I knew that I fell in love with these palettes, but I didn't know how much I fell in love with them and this is them right there, you guys. Can you guess yet? It is the LA Girl Palettes. They came out with four of these this year. This one is the hot heat that you guys. Holy cow. I actually watched Sabrina declutter this one and it was in my number one. And I'm thinking, am I crazy for thinking that this is my number one? But I don't think that she had a chance. She said that she hadn't had a chance to work with them. And I was just like, oh, my goodness. I wish that I could just reach the screen and say, don't do it. Just give them a try. I just see what they're like because you guys, you know how I'm always saying that Juvia's place has something magical in their formula? LA Girl hit on it. I don't know how they did, but they hit on it and they just have that saturation, the lasting power, the blendability. This is just something more than just pretty eyeshadows. The mattes are so good. You have all of the vibrant other colors. And you guys, I just can't rave enough about these palettes. So if there is one of these that you look at and you go, oh, I like that color scheme, go for it. Because if it's the color scheme that's holding you back, they have three other color schemes to look at and try. But this one made it to number one because every single week when I would think of something I wanted to do with my eyes, I was either reaching for one color in here or I was reaching for the whole entire palette and using it. And I just feel like it's some of those ones that are just way up there as far as quality goes. And I just, I can't recommend them to you guys enough. I just think that they are some next level palettes. They are fantastic. And for what you get in here and for the amount of money, I know that they are sold at CVS, but I also know that I got all of mine off of the LA Girl USA website and that's where all of mine came from. So definitely if you can't find them at CVS, you will find them on the website and pick them up. I have all four. I'm not disappointed with any of them. I actually just did a party look for you guys that used another palette that had the teals and stuff in there. And I just it was so pretty. And now my hand is completely stained with all kinds of eyeshadows. But it was so worth it. Thank you, everyone, for watching today. I enjoyed it. I hope you enjoyed it, too. Don't forget to give it that thumbs up. Everyone have a happy and healthy rest of your week. Take care of yourselves. Love you so very much. And I'll see you in my next video. Bye bye, guys.
