5 BEST & 5 WORST: NATASHA DENONA | Jamie Paige

[@jj_beauty0057]

I’m dying for her to come out with a mid size biba palette for $65 like the sunrise!!

[@quintecence]

Or her blue/purple... I'm not really a neutral/warm tones gal 😂

[@chillandlerbong1166]

Same!

[@sarahslater2582]

Yup I'm hoping too! I have the safari palette and while I want the biba i'm not sure I would use it. Mini would be amazing though!

[@RayaBahian]

True i think that is more reasonable

[@BeautybySaraBarch]

Yes pleaseeeeee

[@margauxb3591]

Ok but you look drop-dead gorgeous in this, the hair, the makeup, wow!

[@hanhnhi]

JAMIE, you need to film this look tutorial. THE HAIR, EYES AND LIPS. This is literally my jam. ❤💯

[@JamiePaige]

Hehe I didddd😀

[@hanhnhi]

Yasss ❤

[@luminalgenie]

She is such a natural! I love her elegance 💘

[@MarthaBlaire]

in the future, could you do swatches on your hand or your other arm? the tatoos (are awesome, but) make it hard to see the true colour of the swatch

[@SaplingTarot]

Although I agree, seeing them over the tattoos gives a good idea of the level of pigment/coverage, so both are valuable in their own ways.

[@jessb6555]

Agree, swatching over tattoos makes no sense.

[@alenemarie1726]

Can I just say you’re absolutely stunning. Your skin is glowing, your hair is angelic, you have the most amazing personality. I just love you.

[@Zainzainzain56]

Can you do a video all your favorite glitter glossy shadow like hourglass scattered light or Marc jacobs see-quin glitter and etc.....

[@SnowCovered]

So about the Metropolis pallette: "Each look idea is centered around a “quad” (...) to give a good idea of the “core” color scheme of a look". In the beginning I as well found the pallette to be a bit confusing but when looking at it this way it started to make a lot of sence. I find folowing the rows (also diagonally) makes for really pretty looks as well.

[@c.j.minster4292]

Alex _ yeah - I learned that from Alicia (KinkySweat on YT) and while I agree that many shades look similar on the lid, they feel perfect for fall.

[@iconicanna]

Jamie, you look so so so beautiful in this video!! I mean, you’re always beautiful, but WOW 😍

[@TheMochiPochi]

Bababababananna she’s gloooooowing right? 💥

[@kayade5305]

The *Metropolis* is one of her best Palette and I have them all. 1. It has 28 of the best colours similar to colours from all the other palettes. 2. It's the best way for beginners to know her brand without spurlging out on too many palettes. 3. It's one of her palettes with the best all round ND quality. 4. ND explains this very well. Looking at the shadows like quads, rows, columns and diagonally; everything makes so much sense. 5. You can create so many looks with just one palette. I can create a look for everyday of the month.

[@qairyly6114]

really really need a tutorial of today's look

[@JamiePaige]

I gotchu 😏

[@olakotwica3496]

We neet that „just walked out of vogue” smokey eye tutorial! Unless there already is one on your channel that I have no idea I had already seen, because I watched every single one of your videos...

[@camomilehottea]

Hey, the swatches were useful but in the future, could you please use your arm that doesn’t have any tattoos? It’ll be much easier to see the colours that way.

[@tasrahman4835]

I heard from someone that ND arranged the metropolis palette in quad format so that groups of colours are put together.....hence why it looks jumbled initially. I don’t know how true that is since I didn’t check their website!

[@BunnyM3]

I was just going to say this. Theres a youtuber named KinkySweat that demonstrated why the metropolis palette was arranged that way.

[@caityvokes7323]

I haven't verified this either, but I totally believe it because when I look at only a quad at a time I see all kinds of looks. It actually convinced me that I want it if it's still available at sale time!

[@FitChickGlows]

Yes, you are right! Natasha mentioned this in her Sephoria Masterclass that Sephora posted on their channel. Also, Natasha posted her Masterclass of the Metropolis palette on her channel too. Also, of course KinkySweat talked about and demo’d it as Aleasha Marie mentioned. Also, Natasha based the palette on New York and if you think of a Metropolis like New York you think of melting pot of peoples, of energy, and vibrancy and fast paced and a cacophony of clashes of colors and sounds and movement and that palette depicts it to me so well! Lol! 😉

[@Eroom105]

Also, if you look at the colors down the column, those colors look like they go together.

[@cyliejeanjohnston2500]

The metropolis palette is actually my ultimate favourite palette. Once you find it, try just covering up half the palette and it looks more uniform. I’ve seen people actually depot the shadows and rearrange them too.

[@delphinerenaud5379]

LOVE this video and the swatches, but it's hard to see the difference of the shades bc of your tattoo (don't get me wrong, it's beautiful, it's just harder to see the shades) ! Could you maybe swatch on a different arm ? Great video Jamie :) xxx

[@annareedbeauty]

I swear I was looking for a video about the Natasha Denona palettes and I see the notification !!! Lots of love !

[@orsolyanagy3759]

i would love to see you do videos about: dose of colors hourglass pat mcgrath charlotte tilbury mac l’oréal

[@gunlovingurls9200]

Orsolya Nagy did you search her videos? She recently did one with hourglass.

[@kamloopscruiser874]

Fun to see. ND isn’t in my budget but it’s fun to just know what’s great and what’s not without spending a dime.

[@acordaro]

I’m so glad you mentioned the Metropolis palette! I’ve been going back and forth in my mind about purchasing it. I think we’re all trying to be more conscientious about our purchases, especially with the barrage of palettes being released. Not to mention, I’m literally running out of room! I took the Metropolis out of my cart and feel relieved!!

[@angie_moments]

I’m holding my breath waiting to buy the new palette from Tati Beauty - it looks beautiful and the color story looks so cohesive 🎨

[@katherinehrdz]

I love that you upload a Natasha Denona video as soon as I start looking into the brand 💕 I’m currently eyeing those two palettes!!

[@parnikajain3151]

Watching this before studying for my midterm that’s in the afternoon😁can’t wait to do my nails in the evening as some self-care

[@melissaandreag]

I’m dying for your look right now! Love the effortless hair, white tank, jewelry, tattoos, makeup look... you’re a whole vibe!

[@xtinea3406]

The ND Gold palette is my favorite - great overview of the brand - thank you!

[@wilhelminamagdalenakapatow3213]

You nailed the description of the Metropolis palette 🎨. So true. Luv ur videos Jaime!

[@karrinadusablon9738]

I watched kinkysweat video and she explained the colour story. Each line /each quad/ each diagonal is a colour look. This helped me a lot in my looks. You look stunning

[@classicallydiana8255]

These 5 best 5 worst videos are always so helpful! Am I weird for liking the Metropolis palette? Haha I think it might make a good complimentary palette...or maybe I like it because the price is a little easier to swallow, considering you get more pans, for the same cost as her other palettes 🙈😂. P.s. you look SOOOOOOOO pretty in this video, Jamie! (You always look pretty, but I just love the soft makeup you got going on) ❤️

[@Florence.Viktoria]

I just got the Metropolis palette from my boyfriend for my birthday and it's gorgeous in real life. I didn't know he was buying it, and at first I was like "shit, I'm not sure I really wanted this" because a lot of shades looked too similar. They're pretty different in real life though, which was a relief. I think it comes to preference, I love dramatic looks and I don't own any neutral shadows so Metropolis was a great addition to my collection and I'm happy to own it. It goes well with my colorful palettes and works wonderfully as a standalone as well.

[@classicallydiana8255]

Viktoria Nemeth Good choice, boyfriend! What a nice gift! My husband wouldn’t even know where to start with buying me makeup 😂. Ok, seeing your thoughts on the palette reeeaaaalllly makes me wanna but it, now 😭. So happy you’re loving it! ❤️

[@ivyscripting7240]

Honestly I know there's a lot of criticism about the Metropolis palette, and I don't disagree about shade repetition and that there are some things she definitely could changed in the palette. That being said, I don't regret my purchase at all. I find that using the quad format allows me to create different looks than my usual, and it's pretty inspiring. And truthfully, the formula is so nice. The CP formula blends beautifully, and the shimmers are lovely. I also appreciate that the color select has a great range of neutrals and bolds (and even better neutrals than Biba IMO) I only own a few Sydney Grace singles and her Sunrise palette, so for me this is a perfect addition to my collection. I really can't recommend it enough if you decide to try it! 😄

[@KateLanum]

I love my metropolis palette

[@kayade5305]

Nope. I love mine too. The metropolis is one of her best curated eyeshadows re: formulas, quality and money wise. ND explains that it needs to be looked at like quads, columns, rows or diagonally. I can go from subtle to super creative and garner compliments with mine.

[@ayanizar6404]

Your mind>>>> I was just thinking about this!!! I’m starting to a course at Natasha Denona’s academy so this video is perfect!❤️❤️ Thanks Jamie💖💖

[@shopaholics]

Five best ., ! Would love to see Bobbi brown please!!

[@1234ainos]

I agree completely about her lipsticks! Love them so much! But it doesn't seem to be talked about a lot on youtube.

[@fatimae7607]

When i saw the metropolis palette, it overwhelmed me. I bought it because it's "limited edition" but once you look at it column by column (not rows), it's just amazing. I love it.

[@gloriadorlich2878]

💜 Love you, but please next time you Swatch Shadows could you do it on your other arm. You're beautiful tattoo kind of made it hard to see the Shadows true color. ❤

[@madstudies9192]

Your skin is absolutely glowing!!!

[@gilliandavis6945]

What about a 5 best 5 worst neutral eyeshadow palettes!? I’d love to see that

[@glorialittle3779]

Jamie before the sun comes up!!! I loves these videos Jamie!! You put some of the best content in the beauty community always here to support a Canadian sister ❤️

[@JamiePaige]

🥰🥰🥰

[@NicoleSierra]

JAMIE OMG YOU LOOK GLOWINGLY BEAUTIFUL ❤️❤️✨ your hair looks super cute and this makeup look is classic!

[@jslilimauve]

Thats why I prefer single eyeshadow pans ! You have ONLY colors you like and want. Not 10000 similar shades for 100 dollars. I always want to try ND palette but they always have smth I dislike about them - either a few colors I know Im not gonna wear or too many similar colors...no thanks and back to my singles colleciton which is waaaaay more satisfying and pretty then any ND palette lol.

[@Sue-pn7mq]

Same here, I have a few of her smaller palettes, but if I pay so much I want to like almost all colors and they’re too neutral for me most of the time. What are your favorite single shadow brands?

[@ZijnShayatanica]

Likewise!

[@4booky831]

You don't find it more expensive? I'm all for singles but for the price of 4 singles I really like, I can get a palette with far more shades. I tend to choose palettes where I like at least 90% of the palette. Then again, I like to be more mindful with my purchases so I dont buy palettes if I have the majority of the shades already..

[@Sue-pn7mq]

4booky I’d rather have those four really special shades that I will love and enjoy every single time I put them on than a larger quantity of good shadows in a palette. I often find that shadows in palettes are not as unique to me as single shadows, I like color, sparkle and color shifts, so I don’t mind paying a little bit more for less if that is what makes me happiest. I think it depends on what you want to use the shadows for and the way you use them, that’s why I like that there are options. If there are palettes with shades you’ll almost all use that’s great, but for me when I buy a palette a lot of the shades are usually redundant, so singles are a perfect solution in that case.

[@shannonjenningsmakeup]

4booky singles are definitely more of a straight up investment but I think it’s cheaper in the long run only replacing the shades you actually use rather than buying another huge palette every time you run out of your transition shade and brow bone highlight.

[@sandrift]

I think the Metropolis layout makes more sense if you’ve heard it described by ND. If you look at the pans as quads, and even on the diagonals, you’ll see different looks better that way. And of course the quality is great. Nice video!

[@roxypaquette9501]

Sand Rift agreed!

[@evenault204]

I recently bought the mini gold palette and I just looove it. I couldn't bring myself to buy the original gold palette. It's just way too expensive. I like the color story of the mini even more. It's really leaning green, and it goes with my eyes so beautifully. It's a great way also to try the formula. The colors blend really nicely. I'm really happy with my purchase.

[@tawneyemerick4120]

I have a hard time liking ND because of the price. I can barely afford the $25 palette's at Sephora let alone the normal priced ones.

[@ZijnShayatanica]

Agreed. But if you like the Gold Palette, Alter Ego & Profusion have really beautiful dupes. And Alter Ego has a dupe of the Biba. Otherwise? I'd rather just buy singles of colours that I find appealing, if I have no similar shades already.

[@RayaBahian]

Me too. It took me 4 years to buy the modern renaissance palette cause i had to save up for it. And i also got it for 50% off. I can never purchase this expensive but good looking palette in this lifetime

[@perfumaphilia3246]

We all like luxurious, expensive things, but can only afford what we can afford. There is so much amazing makeup now that's affordable at nearly every price point. No need to stress out about or go into debt over makeup.

[@ysa9]

We need an updated version! Especially ranking mini ND palettes

[@lauraa5331]

I have to agree with Kristi who said in her last video that there’s no justification for such high prices. I was gifted the gold palette and I am glad I have it, it’s lovely, but still I don’t think $129 is worth it and I don’t think we should « allow » brands to sell us these products when most of us cannot afford them. There is so much you could buy with that money, imo it’s over the top.

[@jodies3050]

I have absolutely no intention of buying ND products however I clicked because I find your vids so lovely to watch!! 😘

[@jessicarussell5134]

I'm seriously loving the natural hair and brown lipstick thing you've done in the last few videos , major 90s supermodel vibes 💓😻

[@savanah1407]

Yess the Biba is AMAZING! It’s the only “full size” I’ve been able to justify investing in. I also have the mini nude and plan to get the mini gold for that olive green shade!

[@audreyjennadegon]

you’re so gorgeous 😭 and i love how informative your videos are!! one of my fav channels for sure 💖 love you jamie!!

[@isabelle123_7]

I have the Biba, gold and lila palette and i love them all ❤️ I love your nailpolish btw 💅🏼 great video !

[@ammaradiaga09]

Hi Jamie, looking stunning as always 🥰 The Metropolis palette color story & design is based on the idea that regardless of the colour you pick, you can create a look like a quad or diagonally, vertically, horizontally - so easy! No make up expert here but that design has simplified creating a look (no need to think about it) it works beautifully 😉 Xx

[@jennyrock9304]

Which video shows this makeup look? Stunning!

[@Amoafoa]

I really want the metropolis palette because I feel like I wouldn’t need another palette after that. I’m not big on eyeshadow so having a one stop shop would be great

[@nisrinarnouk4373]

Amoafoa that makes so much sense. I’m careful with my purchases and even then...the amount of products of I’ve tried and de cluttered would have gotten me an ND of Pat McGrath palette.

[@roxypaquette9501]

I adore the metropolis palette! You should check out Kinkysweat’s video on it!

[@turnontheLIGHTS909]

WE NEED THIS CURRENT MAKEUP TUTORIAL😍

[@jiahl4579]

Idk why I’m filled with sO mUCH LOVE FOR U

[@nancyfong3535]

Great review. The Biba palette is my one and only large Natasha d palettes and I love it. I also have the chroma crystal top coat in full metal bronze, not to be confused with the neutral top coat selection at Sephora. Found this on her web site. It’s so beautiful.

[@TheTigereye22]

Ill have to agree with another coment that Ive read here, I would also really appreaciate if you could do you swatches on your other arm because the tattoos underneath are a liitle bit distracting :) You look drop dead gorgeous btw I absolutely love your makeup and especially this nude lip combo! ♥

[@ryannefarrell4084]

Totally irrelevant to the topic at hand, but your nail colour and lip shade together is EVERYTHING.

[@lavayuki]

My favourite is the glam palette. I like cool tones and love all the shimmers and neutrals in it. I also like the Xenon palette for smokey looks

[@radiantlyshana]

I have two Natasha Denona palettes(Biba and Sunset) and i can always count on the formula to make me look like I know what I'm doing!! I even ordered the Metropolis palette but had to return it because it was completely missing one shade!! Your video so early is the best way to start my day!!

[@sarereilly]

Omg how gorge is your makeup in this vid?! Screenshotting for wedding makeup inspo! ✨

[@duckpondwithoutducks]

I never used to buy palettes because I found that powders didn't last long enough on my eyelids, I would always buy eyeshadow sticks. But then for some reason the Urban Decay Born To Run palette caught my eye and I got that. And now I just splurged on the Metropolis palette. I am so glad that the shadows in the Metropolis palette last really well on my eyes without creasing. And I like that it has lots of different colour options. I normally only use a couple of colours on my eyes anyway, one in the crease, one on the lid, so the Metropolis palette gives me lots of different looks! 😀

[@olivianavarro3846]

Love the new background love the new lighting 🙌🏼

[@123guilhermina321]

Hey! Could you please do a 5 best 5 worst eyeliner video? I would love to see that

[@skatingcanuck9837]

Really succinct and thoughtful video. I am always on the fence about unique vs. how much I will use it. After debating this I ordered the BIBA palette this week. I never thought I could justify the price until I tried a mini that I used a lot. I have decided I will just buy a few good quality high end palettes instead of a new palette every month. Thanks for reaffirming I made the right decision Jamie.

[@traceymurphy4804]

I am just getting into Natasha Denona so I watched you for inspiration!

[@KeepBeautyReal1]

I felt the same about the new palette! It’s like she threw a bunch of overstocked shades into one package and called it a day. I love my sunrise and sunset palettes though!

[@norafaye2131]

Your skin looks AMAZING I hope you filmed this look!!!!

[@dianaeidelshtein3953]

I have Metropolis pallet and it’s amazing

[@christinakim914]

You are GLOWING!!

[@JohannaGMakeup]

I created 6 looks for the Metropolis on my channel. It is intimidating at first, but I ended up loving this palette! Really like the cream to powder formula. Love the Biba, it's probably the one I use the most and the Gold palette has a special place in my heart.

[@sierraeriksson5266]

Yeay I miss your 5 best and worst video, please make more 🙏❤️

[@rosenzweigsydney1529]

your base makeup looks stunning!!!

[@lilykarins9541]

the metropolis palette is sooooo easy to rearrange, I just popped the shadows out with a needle and theres no glue or anything its just magnetic packaging. i like it much better rearranged

[@theofficialboxyladiesyoutu4525]

Girl I cannot wait for your jewelry collab. I’ve always been eyeballing your earrings and necklaces because they are also my vibe. So in conclusion, I’m v ready to give you my money, boo. 💙

[@JamiePaige]

Yay!!! Can’t wait for you to get your hands on them 🥰 thank you so much girl!

[@theofficialboxyladiesyoutu4525]

Jamie Paige I assume they are launching soon? God I know you have a video prepared that will answer all my questions but I Want It All NOW. 😤😤😤 😂

[@tnckowal1]

Great video. Agreed with all your favs and no favs except the Metropolis palette. For me it’s my new travel palette (along with my Viseart neutral palette) since it has everything I need

[@Miriam-tr9yd]

Your makeup gives me straight up Sophia Loren vibes and I love it 💘💘

[@katrinehermann2113]

THAT MAKEUP LOOK IS AMAZING!! plz do a tutorial!

[@lucichan]

Hi Jamie! I also love the Natasha Denona colour stories - so inspiring! I heard with Metropolis that it’s intended to think of it in quads. So most 4 shadows next to each other make an interesting look! I’ve been using the palette for a few weeks now... and I think it’s almost surpassing the Gold palette as my favourite... I’m a sucker for yellow and green!

[@lily4834]

loved the quality of this video... it looks so gooooood. plus jamie you did the impossible by being even more gorgeous than you already are ❤️

[@lillyshewandagne]

i can appreciate luxury makeup for what it is, however, i truly do not think it makes sense to spend that much money on eyeshadows/makeup. i think spending upwards of your monthly car payment or a good chunk of rent for some people on makeup is just mind blowing. unless a person can comfortably do it (then it totally makes sense) and they love luxury makeup, i don’t see any other reason for it. even when it comes down to the ingredients and sheer cost it is to make cosmetics, it absolutely is not upwards of hundreds of dollars and frankly, it’s full on scary that brands are willing to charge consumers this much money for makeup.

[@taylormadison1601]

How do you not have more subscribers?! I love ND, the Biba is amazing but I didn’t love the Safari or Sunset as much! My ABH shades stay longer on my eyes, and the cool tones in ND palettes look muddy on me! Not worth it for me unless she comes out with an amazing new sister to the Biba!! Love your channel 💕

[@MSUSPARTANS1973]

Great video, Jamie! You’ve been killing it, actually, with great content lately. Just one thing, would it be possible for you to search on your right arm? I know it’ll feel weird, but your tattoo is very distracting and makes it hard to focus on the color. Or, maybe you could swatch on the outside of your left hand? Thx!

[@chrissyl5201]

I bought Metropolis and returned it for all of the reasons you mentioned! I felt like a lot of the shades were repeats and the color story was all over the place, too.

[@lorrainewilkins1032]

Hi Jamie, I bought the ND Biba and safari palettes and love them. BUT, I popped out all the individual colours wrote the names on the back and then rearranged them to suit my own style. Love the magnetic palettes for that!

[@kirstenglae]

The Biba palette to me, was just alright. My favorite ND (best formula, color selection, etc.) is hands down the large Green/Brown palette and the large Blue/Purple. I know they are expensive, but the formula went way down in my opinion, after these two palettes.

[@FitChickGlows]

Those two are my favorite also! Especially her rich metallic and crystal shadows shined in those palettes too! Though I still love her others, but the richness of her two Genesis palettes Is unparalleled! We’re in good company as Kathleen Light’s said the same thing in one of her recent video’s. Lol!

[@kram_lina]

This is such a great video! I’m glad I watched it because I haven’t seen your videos in ages and now I’m gonna watch moooree :)))

[@sarahslater2582]

we need a video on this look!

[@samanthaz341]

Jamie you look STUNNING in this video. I mean you always do, but I’m loving this look 😍

[@mistyparsons7710]

I would love to try Natasha Denona eyeshadows..I’ve heard nothing but great things about their formula. But, I don’t think any eyeshadow palette is worth hundreds of dollars no matter how good the formula is. I know they make the $25 palettes but I’ve also heard the formula is different in those!! Another great video!! Love you, Jamie!!💛😘 xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo 🐺🐍

[@carmensmith6394]

I have two mini palettes, Lila and Nude which have 5 mini shades and the Camel palette which has 5 larger size shades. They are more affordable when they are minis. I think more brands should do this as not everyone can afford the large palettes Her shadows are very good quality too

[@nrulazman317]

I love that chroma crystal top coat ❤️ eyeing on that grey-brown shade

[@bonniedixon7665]

Her palettes are my favorite. I wasnt a fan of the Star palette, but i have all of them ♡

[@meganm214]

I agree, her best palette is Biba. I wear that probably more than any other palette I own. Second to that, I would go Star palette for versatility and Gold for texture. I like Lila but the colors read too dark on my fair skintone. Worst ND for me would be the crystal topcoats because they dried completely out in a short timeframe and became unusable though I loved them at first purchase.

[@juliascamp2175]

I love the room you filmed this video in! That artwork is awesome. :)

[@claodinka1970]

MY GOD, YOU LOOK GORGEOUS! 🔥 I think ND product's are awesome but WAY TO EXPENSIVE! She has released the smaller more "affordable" palettes but they're still a lot if money. 💸💸

[@souljagirl324199]

Her mini palettes are the best!! I have the mini sunset & nude and wear them literally everyday! Natasha replaced my abh palettes

[@leilaniramirez2626]

Can you please do a 5 best and 5 worst for hourglass?? Love your channel!

[@mariyamsayer3545]

Jamieeee please give us tutorial on this look and hair please you look drop dead gorgeous 😍😘😘❤️❤️

[@AndyCia23]

You look BEAUTIFUL, please share this look

[@carinam4258]

I like the sunrise so much that I had to pick up the metropolis! I read this somewhere and it actually helped: look at the palette in quads! Any 4 shades in any direction or a cluster make a look!!! 😊

[@lizseville1]

You might look at the metropolis Pallette in groups of four or six. It seems to me to work round clusters.

[@whitneydulany9436]

I’d love to see a look with the Lila palette:) I bought it a year ago and still need inspiration to use it!!

[@carissafleming5424]

Whitney Dulany she has a video showing three different looks with the Lila palette, I got it last year for Christmas and it was the first video I watched for inspiration :)
