EYESHADOW PALETTES I SHOULD *NOT* HAVE LIKED ... UNEXPECTED LOVES

[@annemarietimmerman7213]

Hi dear Samantha, thank you for another wonderful video, and you look amazing, everything, clothing, hair, makeup, but i love you being you, always honest about products, love that so much about you!!!!🤩🤩🤩🤩Also love that CT quad and the Patrick Ta palette!!!! But all eyeshadow looks amazing on you, wow you always look amazing!!!! A total surprise for me: was and still is the Victoria Beckham bronzer, the colours and the formula is so amazing, have shade 1 for winter, shade 2 for summer. Tom Ford Terra was on place 1 and Dior (shades 4 and 6) on place 2. They now went to place 2 and 3. Love so many bronzers still force myself to rotate otherwise i only use the VB bronzer brick! Eyeshadows? Having more sensitive eyes so also love TF/CT/Chantecaille/Surratt type of shadows, but for me, i most fell in love last years with the Sydney Grace shadows, they are so much worth the long expensive trip to The Netherlands!!! And i fell in love with almost all Chantecaille products, of course i don't have them all, but love the brand so much! I also have some skincare now since 2 months which i buy when in discount of course, but especially the bio lifting creams are a game changer for me, not a miracle, but, i never say never talking about my smile lines especially but afraid for needles botox etc here i must say. Another unexpected but very loved eyeshadow palette was and still is PMG mothership palette nr. 3, can't use to much colours at once but that is with all these type of brands of course. And, watching almost 3 years now, i never got the TF Cocoa Mirage hype, but this is the palette i mostly use to make a start/base, so happy i have a back up the formula is everything! That is it, i think! That Auric brand sounds interesting, looked on the internet, it is only in America i believe, but gonna check out, thanks so much again!!! You also encouraged me to use more my CT liquid complexion (contour/bronze/highlight) products, Dior powder no powder etc, thanks so much, i love to learn from you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Have an amazing day!!!!😘😘😘😘

The child palette is one of my all time favourite palettes. I thought I would like it but didn’t think I would love it as much as I do.

[@nickigregersen1826]

Absolutely love that eye look and top together! You look beautiful!!

[@tdsollog]

I was watching you while applying for a job promotion (I work at a medical group at a military base, and have been there for nearly five years). Your positivity and work ethic have been so inspiring for many of us. I bought the Huda Mercury Retrograde from Sephora last winter when it was on sale, and was pleasantly surprised. Love from #samsquad in the spooky Pine Barrens in NJ

[@chickenhoffman]

Sam talking abt eye shadow palettes for 23 mins?!?! Yes please & thank you! 😋

[@caitk6016]

The Child palette is one of my absolute favorites! The quality is sooo good and the color story is gorgeous 💚

[@TipTheScales27]

The Star Wars Child palette also really surprised me! It started my love affair with green eyeshadows. Granted, my skin tone is more cool-toned so I have to be careful which types of greens I choose. But the fact that there are some that work for me is so exciting!

[@cherbst24]

Maybe this has been mentioned and I’ve just missed it, but I feel like the UD Reloaded and the ABH Sultry pallet are pretty similar (shade wise).

[@tammyeaton4791]

Yes, i agree. The UD is warmer and the formula is a lot different than the Sultry palette. I don’t own either palette but am quite familiar with the respective formulas. ABH brought back sultry in vault for one of the holidays recently I think 2019. I MISSED OUT.

[@Lulusvideos1]

Similar color story, but Sultry leans cool ❄️, while Naked Reloaded is warm🔥.

[@lianedonovan4294]

Your eye look is stunning today!

[@mollyjane01]

Love your whole vibe in this video, Sam-from your look to your sassitude!! Don’t even get me started on the Queen ♈️!!! 🥰🥰

[@xoxostaci]

The rose quartz palette is so incredible. I had it in my eyeshadow palette tag video... but OMG I love it! It's a favorite of mine!

[@Cynthia123733]

This year I have been all about decluttering and cleaning. Trying to find containers and organize my stuff...just so much stuff needs a place. It has been a challenge for me. So I see you Gurl! You got this! 😁

[@dariapassaglia8651]

You were so right about the Dirty Martini palette and the bottle it comes in is so cool, one of my favs

[@sheamcneece]

Kaja’s crystal eye pigments are lovely! I have the purple one & champagne color! Chef’s kiss!

[@ahedge100]

I LOVE Naked Reloaded. I always feel so beautiful in the looks I do with it. I was worried I had made a mistake the more I watched videos on it, but the more I wore it, I knew I made the right choice.

[@debwhite5281]

The blue looked awesome to!!!

[@000sparkle000]

I also didn't expect to love The Child palette, but the mattes and shimmers are all top notch! 💚

[@michaelamcleod39]

I love the color of your shirt !! Your eye look goes so well with it!!! Thanks for always boosting my mood and inspiring me !!!

[@derrickjenniferwatkins1394]

Samantha, your whole look in this video is so beautiful!

[@gailwarnell5308]

The Huda rose quartz palette is my favorite. So beautiful. My favorite kaja beauty product is the heart stamp blush. It's a cushion blush with a stamp and blends beautifully with a sponge. I call it my "fun" blush. I makes me smile and if I want more intensity I can build it or put a powder blush over it.

[@annr.8883]

Your eye makeup is STUNNING today. 😍😍

[@426adina]

Happy Sunday thanks for sharing #SamSquad

[@vanessalamontagne4443]

ohhhh I love the kaja eyeshadow beauty bentos and their gloss shot lip gloss.

[@libbymorehouse4466]

I would love to see a part two of this with other products

[@elizabethnachman2557]

Girl, the first thing *I* thought was how fabulous your hair looks! 😍

[@ginger_80]

I also didn’t expect to love the smoke reflect as much as I do. I’m obsessed with Defiance and want to get all the shades and any new ones that come out. I am close to decluttering most of my palettes, because I love it so much.

[@tammyeaton4791]

Rose quartz was an unexpected love for me because even though I really love pink and purple I just thought the shimmers were going to be too much and it would overwhelm me. I’m not a beginner at make up I consider myself somewhat proficient but for some reason Rose Quartz did not initially sing to me. It might’ve been because I had purchased two other pallets in the space of a month and a half and I Purchased the Rose Quartz one of the last days of the Sephora sale. Im SO GLAD i did!

[@Elizabeth-dq6hg]

Love your eyeshadow with your shirt!! I’m gonna have to try the wild child!!!

[@Lulusvideos1]

A palette I didn't expect to love is the Too Faced Cinnamon Swirl. I didn't get it when it first came out, just wasn't interested and already had the first Gingerbread, and the Pumpkin Spice palettes. I received an Ulta gift card for Christmas and while on the website, noticed it was on sale for half off, so I bought it on a whim. It's just the kind of palette I go for, neutrals with a hint of color. It looked so boring on videos and in pictures, but when I got it, it just seemed to 'sparkle' ✨ it has more of a variety than I imagined it would, and it reminds me of the TF Peanut 🥜 Butter & Jelly palette from a few years ago that I love and still use. Great video, beautiful eye look, and your hair is perfect. 👌🏼

[@laurenshanahan3084]

Wild Child is one that grabbed me too! I try and almost ignore them because they stress me out haha but that one I had to get! Same with their Lust for Dusk…I totally recommend!

[@nadiazanchetta1388]

Samantha, I have to say just Gorgeous XOXO No need to mention your hair it's fabulous XOXO I love that you have expanded your filming it's amazing ❤️ I appreciate you so much all your dedication and work ethics it's outstanding ❤️ ❤️

[@vm-dv81m]

Would definitely love to try all of these.

[@brandiwest554]

I've been watching you for a little while and you seem much more confident now. Makes me smile!

[@brandigarcia8297]

I had previously never watched star wars but I started watching the mandalorian with my now husband and became obsessed with Baby Yoda. I initially bought the palette (and later the collection) because of that, as I don't wear green eyeshadows. But I actually really love it.... I still don't wear the greens much( I will sometimes) but the gold and dirt brown color is really pretty. I only buy ColourPop for the collections (very rare) so the quality in that one really surprised me.

[@sarastockall]

I love the Auric shadows!!! Hoping for more colors. Hoping for an Orange. 🍊

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

💯🤗

[@sheenasapunkrocker]

I can’t stop staring at your eyeshadow 🤩

[@lauradavidson2599]

I loved seeing what you were surprised that you enjoyed.

[@amandas.2745]

Love the outfit.. I understand the my hair washing day is tomorrow idea, my hair wash days are set days of the week too!

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

😁

[@melindagenitempo2359]

This helped keep get thru 5 layers of a TCA peel! Loved this ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

[@edwardleecaliforniausa]

Good morning happy Monday morning and I just wanted to say that your vlogs is sooo good and you are gorgeous and your eyelashes is so cute because you are sweetheart

[@JackieGreeneBeauty]

Love the outfit, eyes and hair! 👀 Hela palette on the way!

[@katelynnyangweso2961]

I have the Kaja stack in A Neutral Moment and I use the first color to set my eyeshadow primer and it is the only thing I've ever hit pan in since I started like really getting into makeup about 3 years ago and it's ridiculous how proud of myself I am

[@sandybowers5085]

I love the Child Palette by CP! It is the first CP palette I’ve ever tried! I got it for Christmas from my daughter-in-law and I love it 🥰 It made me love green shadows 💚 Now I have the “It’s a Mood” also for Christmas. I’m fairly impressed with their formula for the price. My fave formula will always be Sydney Grace.i really want their new Valentines release! Have you tried it?

[@rebeccaude4412]

Good Morning Beautiful! I hope you have a wonderful & blessed week ahead 🤗💜🙏🏻! Please give Queen big smooches for me .

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

thanks Rebecca!

[@pbruner90]

I got the new Dior matte foundation. I absolutely love it!

[@gigi2k326]

I think your hair looks pretty for it being a "last day" type of thing.. Vegas looks good on you, or something does. 🤔 💋

[@youngheart.oldsoul8217]

Really enjoyed this!

[@chrissymoss514]

The ND Bronze palette totally surprised me. I kinda knew I would like a couple of shades, (having watched various YT'rs use them). Well, was I shocked when I realised that I actually really, really like it!!!! The gorgeous flower display you have in your background ALWAYS looks like the flowers are in little vase, filled with MILK 😂😂😂😂 Love ya loads 💗💗💗💗💗💗 PS : Please stop saying you're not to good at creating eye looks - Yes you are! xxx

[@thenewgirl42]

Love this idea! Definitely could think of some palettes I didn’t expect to like🥰🥰 love your picks though

[@robynstarkey4974]

I didn't expect to love the Sonia g Fusion brush set quite as much as I do. I now own two sets because no other brushes apply my cream and liquid brushes this good. I also didn't think the ND glam face palette was going to become an absolute go to favourite - I thought I would like it for a while and then it would have been put away by now; but I constantly reach for it.

[@KKCrazyGamer22]

The top is gorgeous. I’ve been looking for one like that.

[@dariapassaglia8651]

I purchased the Nars Climax palette and love it

[@annaroszak-robinson868]

Always love watching your videos

[@danisarmi30]

When I was getting into makeup, I got a red lipstick because everyone was saying it is a makeup collection staple and blue undertones were flattering on everyone, and I absolutely hated it on me. That set a many year ban on anything red on my lips. Then I was trying the etude house lip tints, had tried the peach shade and loved it, and I wanted a second color. My eyes were going towards the shades watermelon red (a pink toned red) and shark red (a berry red). I took the risk and got both. I love them! I later on got the lunar new year collection from colourpop (all warm reds) and really like them too. I very much didn't expect that. I don't know if it's the blue undertone or that I'm warming up to red, but it was very much a surprise for me

[@anitam1487]

Great detailed review!!!

[@Claudia-pd4gb]

Sam, if you had to buy an "expensive" palette and a cheaper one. Which one would you recommend? Thank you, always kisses from Italy🌸

[@KBellaBeauty1]

I love your eye look 🤩

[@goldenllama]

Two palettes that shocked me: Cor de Rosa from Sigma. I’m wearing it today and am blown away. Bought it after hearing you talk so much about it but wasn’t thinking I’d really like it. I really do enjoy it. The second is the ND Gold palette. It’s my most expensive and I only bought it because of FOMO on its last Sephora hurrah. It’s my favorite neutral palette and I use the two blues a lot as well.

[@pamelahewlett1750]

I love so many of the palettes you mentioned ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ I might have to check out the UD palette (since you keep mentioning it 😆) 🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎

[@michelesalter9564]

This is an “amazeballs” video! This is one that I will save for future reference. Thank you Samantha and hugs from Oregon.

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

hahaha thanks!

[@lalacarroll431]

You are my go to for eyeshadow palettes☺️💜 I always purchase my eye palettes from your reviews and recommendations and I remember when you first got the Glamlite Dirty Martini palette and I also have green eyes so I had always avoided green shades I just didn’t think they would be flattering on me and boy was I wrong! I purchased the Dirty Martini palette because of you and I use it so much to this day. You totally got me out of my green shades will not look on my eyes!! I still go back n forth with the Urban Decay Reloaded palette and I need to make a decision lol it does look so beautiful I don’t know if I’d use the entire palette and that’s why I haven’t purchased it yet. I love your outfit those trousers are so cute!

[@ashlynhuffman736]

I just tried the Kaja love swipe lip mousse and I love it!! I definitely want to try more from the brand ☺️

[@amandacollins1757]

Me too they are so awesome such a unique texture! I was wanting to try the eyeshadow stacks…

[@Sabrina_vlg]

i bought the new nude just in october last year. and let me tell you i adore this palette so much. Never expected to do this. The first huda palette i ever got was the desert dusk which was actually real bad so i waited years to try a new one. But i love it and it actually made me interested in the rose quartz one.

[@JackieGreeneBeauty]

So pretty Sam! Love the outfit, eyes and hair! Will have to get out my UD Reloaded. Bought on sale and never tried. Ever do that? My unexpected fave is Pat McGrath Mothership I Subliminal. (neutral w pop of blue) Like you don’t care for blue but is now my signature blue smoky eye! 👀

[@LadyTrooper]

Found your channel through Michele Wong's. Love your style keep them coming! One Vegas local to another Cheers! 🥰 🎰

[@lauries2757]

What color do you have on your nails? I love that sheer pink color. It looks so natural and nice especially when the nails grow out, it’s very undetectable.

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

ooh its a gel color from the salon but im not sure the name 🙈

[@MoonlitSunflower]

I recently received Dirty Martini and and Chocolate Martini. Both are pretty nice. I would be interested to see you compare the Child palette and the Dirty Martini. Is the shade classic in Dirty Martini the same as the center shade in the child? That center shade has captivated me since it's release bit I have for some reason not ordered it. I was hoping the Tinkerbell palette would come back in stock so I could order it and the Child palettes together. I want Temper and Disrupt from Auric. I have Defiance and love it. I'm on the fence about Entice. I've been more into brighter greens these days and less into grungy olive greens.

[@biogirl1381]

the naked reloaded would have to be pried out of my dying hands before i ever let it go. no joke. lol. the kaja stacks have surprisingly become a favorite for me as well. this was a fun video. you look stunning. 💚💚💚

[@aundrealauzon]

Fantastic video. I'm going to have to think on that one. I guess off the top of my head, I didn't think I was going to love Tati's palette, Sultry palette, and Going Coconuts to blow my socks off to the extent they did.❤❤

[@this_lee_life5553]

I remember your Charlotte Video and the green palette!

[@mistichristensen7088]

Adorable outfit!!! My hair is looking like it might need to be washed today 🙄….. why is that process so darn terrible?!

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

lol!

[@AZ_Julie480]

Reloaded is half off on UD ! 💛💜

[@lilnitemakeup]

The CP Wild Child palette looks very similar to the Patrick Ta! Have you swatched them next to each other?

[@freckledklutz]

Tiny marvels by Sydney grace and mercury retrograde by huda are two I didn't expect to love as much as I do. Also the amertine quad by athr beauty - it was a super simple mauve colour story but damn is it beautiful. Goes to show that sometimes you don't know what you will like till you actually try it!

[@sportsfan9040]

Oo... I c a few palettes I would love to own, including the Patrick Ta Major Dimension one

[@stephaniesbookteas5023]

I love and repurchase the Kaja Strawberry Lip Balm + Scrub duo

[@abidavies154]

I dont own any of these but they all sort of interest me If any I'd get the glamlite, the kaja or the auric

[@145MamaN]

Like that outfit on you!

[@the_eerie_faerie_tales]

Ha. Today is MY hair washing day .. don't think I should push it to tomorrow 😆

[@laramauss1968]

I didn’t looove eyeshadow until this winter. I had have my life long only a few little paletts, cheap ones, which i sometimes used with no technique. All of a sudden I became a huge sucker for paletts, now I own 40 or so, some expensive. I use it every day. What changed? I don’t know. Maybe I am gettin old (53) and want to make the best out of me. Eyeshadow is very cute and elegant with long lashes. (i use a lash serum as well 😅). Midlife crisis? Probably.

[@annascorner84]

Aries's is like I want to do youtube too!

[@louisesharpy]

Ok , me it was a cheap product. It’s the catrice matting foundation setting powder haha also these flower bud blushes from winky lux

Rose Quartz is the ONLY Huda palette that works with my aging grey-blue-green eyes BEHIND GLASSES. Most of her stuff is too crepe-aging & too dark behind glasses
