FAVORITE ONE AND DONE SINGLE SHADOWS / Makeup Tag

[@melthompson2856]

All the MAC shadows I showed in the beginning are available. I’m sorry if that didn’t come across. They were discontinued years ago and brought back. Sorry if they wasn’t clear. The only shadow that isn’t available is MJ topaz flash. 💜

[@Antariksha]

I had bought Topaz Flash on your recommendation when it launched... best decision ever! Thank you

[@icekitty15]

Hey Mel, I would like one of each of the ones you showed. I know I can't get the one they don't sell anymore. But I really like there all pretty & a must have.

[@joanneseymour9194]

@@Antariksha likewise, it’s beautiful

[@danigirl1318]

I noticed mj had a topaz flash in what looks like a liquid shadow version, wondering if you’d recommend that. Or are liquid and stick shadows not ideal for one and done?

[@MichelleRauKlimas739501]

Omg yes #MelThompson the palettes one and done ✔ 😍 😘💖💓💕💝

[@monikamazurek7769]

Mel, I will miss you so much 😭 You were such a ray of light in KZbin beauty community. Amazing makeup artist and amazing person. Your passing is heartbreaking. You were loved by so many. R.I.P. 🌹❤

[@liselottegonzalez9260]

I’m watching today we miss you 😢 our angel RIP beautiful 🕊

[@jann3443]

I'm a one and done girl, every day! Marc Jacob's Daddy O is my HG. I've been watching lots of Mel's videos and still commenting because I believe she's seeing them from Heaven and giving them her "hearted comment with angels' wings added!"

[@oliviab6166]

I would LOVE to see you do this tag done with pallets! Such a great idea for this season we are all in.

[@celestecelestial90]

Some of those shadows remind me of the one in your beautiful palette. I like subtle eyeshadow recently because it brings out my natural beauty and eyeshape. Rest well in heaven, Angel Mel. 💜

[@maudeschiltz5684]

Ooooh! I'd love a "One and done eyeshadow from a palette" video!

[@kwagesj]

I’d love to see the palette version of this too! There’s nothing I love more than hearing you talk about eyeshadow...except watching you apply eyeshadow!

[@virginiaandrade8009]

This is one where I saw she truly SHINED and glowed from inside when talking about because she loved this so much. It's so wonderful to see. Also gorgeous shadows I wish I could buy every single one of.

[@gypsybelle637]

I love this one, you gave me so many new products to think about. You're still teaching , sweet darling!🙏🏼❤️

[@ashstelladavo]

It was Karima McKimmie who started the most recent tag. She tagged Mariah and it went from there xx

[@82Lexana]

True!

[@catporter8417]

Love Karima! Loved her choices! So glad so many more YTers are doing the tag

[@melthompson2856]

She’s a great one to add to the list to watch ❤️ however the first 2 ladies I mentioned did this 5 years ago so I don’t think Karima was the first ❤️❤️❤️

[@ashstelladavo]

@@melthompson2856 very true xxx

[@christinaclevenger1990]

I definitely want to also see your one and done in the top drawer palletes! I have learned so much from you during a short period of time. I love wearing makeup now at age 44!!

[@Buttercuppppppppppp]

Miss you Mel ❤

[@RicaRanuu]

Absolutely gorgeous! I try to do "one and done" but then... "let me darken the corner... oh that's pretty... let me add a slightly brighter inner corner.. " then I just go crazy LOL

[@melthompson2856]

Lol!!! 😍😂🙌🏻

[@isabelladow717]

Yes!! Mac HAUX has been my favorite one and done shadow for years. I’m never without it. It mimics a natural shadow with a hint of purple that makes the green in my hazel eyes pop!! I love it so much. I’ve been trying to find the same color in other brands to try other formulas, but I can’t find a similar shade I like as much as this.

[@tiachantelou119]

Remembering you and your beautiful spirit. Seeing you on the flip side darling Mel ❤

[@chrissymoss514]

I'm here for these! I've recently got into the "one and done" trend (if it is a trend 🤷‍♀️) and I'm loving it. During these boring times, I've taken to being an eyeshadow "mixer". Yup, I'm mixing the cream shadows just to see what shades I can come up with. As of now, the colour *SLUDGE* is my trademark 🤣😂🤣 Ciate wasn't on my horizon, thanks for the heads up, 🌸❣🌸

[@Safaura]

You are the kind of pretty that gets TOLD they're pretty all the time. I bet you get people angry with you for "ruining your beauty by getting tattoos". Never have I wanted to buy so many single eyeshadows! I'm so glad you exist. Thank you.

[@ivyb4351]

I love a shimmer when you blend the edges it's like magic a matte shade that's perfectly blended appears

[@Melissa55]

Oh I loved this and thank you so much for the shout out and linking my video!! Gosh you are just beautiful. I love that Chanel shadow. The Ebloui that I loved got discontinued. I sure enjoyed this so much. Stay safe and thank you again. xox, Melissa

[@melthompson2856]

You’re more than welcome 😍😍😍 I loved your video and you seem so kind ❤️❤️❤️❤️ I wish nothing but love and success ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ thank you! 😽

[@aarika1]

That Bobbi Brown brush looks amazing for cream shadows! 😍

[@annlassiter798]

I HIGHLY recommend trying the Dior Mono single shadow in Cosmopolite for a one and done look. It doesn't look that exciting in the pan, but has the most incredible wet looking shimmer on the eyes!!!

[@melthompson2856]

😍😍😍

[@PinCushionQueen]

That’s a beautiful shadow!

[@ProdigalDaughter85]

One of my absolute fave one and done shadows is Charlotte Tilbury’s eyes to mesmerize in the shade Marie Antoinette. Omg packed on the lid and blended up softly into the crease is just awww, so beautiful. I know she recently renamed this tho and it’s no longer called Marie Antoinette, I’m thinking it may be called Oyster Gold or something like that. Hopefully she kept it the same formula and color tho, cuz it’s just AMAZING! 😊 Also, a super affordable shade that is beautiful for the one and done look is Wet and Wild’s single eyeshadow in the shade Nutty. It’s also a dupe for Mac’s Satin Taupe as well. I have both and swatched next to each other, they’re identical 😊😊😊 Mel, you def have me lusting for Chanel’s New Moon! Omg! Love at first swatch! 😍

[@angelmaden1559]

WnW Nutty is an underrated hero!

[@robingoblin]

Heck yeah I’d watch a palette version of this! ❤️

[@chandracox6814]

OMG your tats and hair and just everything are a whole VIBE and I'm here for it!! ✌😋👌🤩

[@tonidoll7955]

I would love to see a series or video on “perfect pairings” those products that just always end up together in your routine

[@kirstenglae]

I definitely think you should try the Bodyography glitter pigments!!! They don’t move, yet they look wet. Absolutely STUNNING, and I always use them as “one and done” shadows. They are the most beautiful singles I’ve ever experienced.

[@kittycloud6693]

I've tried the Marc Jacobs omega single shadows and they're so awesome. Soft, smooth, just beautiful. I thought that his palettes had the same formula but no. All the shiny, glittrry shades caught my attention. 😍

[@jennakimball8265]

The Hourglass Scattered Light will always have my heart! That taupe color is my absolute fav!

[@Stephanie-hl8jo]

Yes yes to the one and done in palettes!!

[@valerievalois6263]

Oh, I am also very interested in your one and done palette picks😘

[@tzoe875]

I love this tag. One and done is right up my alley. I’m off to track down the Ciate shadows!

[@simplypearlbeauty]

hi mel, beautiful one and dones. one of my favorite is the charlotte tilbury eyes to mesmerize is marie antoinette. TFS

[@sarahb6321]

What kind of brush do you use with it? I haven’t figured out how to make the formula work for me yet 😭

[@simplypearlbeauty]

Sarah i like to use a synthetic brush. a less expensive one would be the real techniques. hope that helps!

[@sarahb6321]

@@simplypearlbeauty thank you so much!

[@nushinspace]

Could not pause the vid quickly enough once that first brush stroke of the ciate marbled metal hit your palm 😍 Must. Have. The. Precious.

[@smurfmonster]

Been watching a few "one and done" videos and this video came up as recommended. Ah beautiful Mel, I STILL can't comprehend that you're no longer with us. Missed always, may you rest in peace xx

[@Cora.55]

I love those kind of eyeshadows! I often do a one and done eyeshadow look. I would LOVE to see you do the same from your palettes!

[@sp-d6465]

Mel!!! You NEED to try the clarins sparkle / glitter shadows, the peach / blue / gold ones, only those 3 shades in the range but OH MY DAYS they are INCREDIBLY BEAUTIFUL & you’d never think it from a ‘classic’ brand like Clarins!!!! Seriously they are incredible xxxxx

[@karenforsling4959]

Great to see your matte selections from MAC and happily I have them all in the same palette! Also from MAC - but shimmers - I think Woodwinked and All the Glitters are great for one and done looks.

[@deborahcates]

So fun to see how excited you get! Yes, please do one and done out of palettes! 😊

[@Soapartisan875]

My favorite one and done shade for my brown eyes is the KVD Lolita shadow the plummy nudey color really make my eyes pop .. I also love the Too Faced chocolate wine liquid/cream shadows as it has the same burgandy plummy undertones.. I also love the Dose of Color block party shadow in Sizzle it has a red undertone but omg it looks so beautiful as a wash of color or a grungy heavier application then smudged under the eye the slight shine it has looks amazing ❤️wonderful video Mel looking gorgeous as ever ..

[@dagi72164]

I got the Marc Jacobs Omega shadows - wow! The formula is insanely good!!!! I ended up with both browns and added the “perfect O” as well, which is a champagne color. Hit the jackpot with that one - it’s the perfect brow highlight. I’m so super excited!!!! Thank you Mel for always keeping it real. Also wanted to let you know that your Tiny Marvels pallet is in heavy use since I got it. Absolutely the best Pallet of the year! Color story and Sydney Graces fantastic formula are right on the money!

[@jillhiggins3246]

Good morning Mel!! Yes I would love you to do a one and done from your favorite palettes. My current favorite one and done is the shade marvel from your tiny marvels palette. It’s such a beautiful rose gold! Thanks for this video!!💞

Yes please the special one and done in the palettes would be great and then oooo difficult....the one and done favourite of all of them??

[@MarSoSi1]

OMGGGGFF I WAS EXPECTING THIS TAG FROM YOU! 🙌🙌🙌❤️❤️❤️ Please please make this from EYESHADOW PALETTES (im trying not to spend money on eyeshadows and this would be awesome to rotate the ones i already have). Also i started to see this tag because of Karima McKammie and when she talk about the Huda New Nude shade i instantly grab mine and loved the look! Easy and gorgeus! ❤️

[@ShonaMM75]

Love this video. Found a bunch of these types of videos recently as I wanted a simple eyeshadow option. Definitely going to invest in pillow talk at the very least! Please do a one and done from palette vid ❤️

[@kenyawoods9546]

Stunning singles! Am obsessed with all of them. This KZbinr is underrated guys! Do not sleep on Mel she’s amazing and her content is transparent👏🏽

[@BubblyViolin11]

I really love the butter london glaze eye glosses. They're pretty much bulletproof once they set and they're super pretty!

[@ErinCRN]

So I bought MAC Kid after watching this video and am in LOVE! It’s my perfect neutral to cool tone shade. I love wearing it as a base for layering other colors and the perfect transition as well as on its own. Thanks for doing this video!

[@ThePinkSage]

Texture, starry nights, and dreamy beams from Mac are my one and done favorites.

[@m_santo875]

Oh my, I miss mac kid. Velvet moss and fig 1 was my favorite and its been continued.

[@sarahweaver7808]

I have the Ciaté pot shadows, and I agree that they are underrated! I love them!

[@Cara-39]

My all time favorite MAC shadow is Satin Taupe and it's an amazing one and done shadow!

[@lalacarroll431]

YAY! I’m so happy you filmed this “one and done eyeshadow” video!!! I had commented on Kelly’s video that I wanted you to do this tag! I love that MAC shade in Hoax, the Ciate London shades and the Marc Jacobs shades. My favorite one and done eyeshadows are the ones that Christen Dominque released. My favorite is the mauve toned matte shade. It’s so easy to apply and it’s so beautiful 😍 on its own!

[@sarahroot3650]

MAC Uninterrupted is definitely my one and done. I think that's the only single eyeshadow I've ever actually repurchased. Also the Groundwork paint pot is great too for an easy look.

[@CoutureByKrystal]

I just want to know what you use in your eyebrows they’re amazing

[@rosai.4371]

I did just today a one and done look with the warm brown eyeshadow in the mothership V palette by Pat mcgrath. In general I find that PM eyeshadows are perfect for this kind of look!

Love this! Since I’ve started my third year of college all I want to do is grab a palette, quickly swipe a shade onto my eyes, and go! I rarely ever do a full eye look anymore especially in quarantine 😅😂

[@XXSINJUXX]

Tarte’s metallic single eyeshadow in Poker Face is my go to one and done shade. I love the ease of it and it’s just a pretty unique color. Great for everyday but can be intensified for evening sultry looks.

[@JennDBeauty]

Mel! I got the Marc Jacobs Daddy-O and LOOOOVE it! I want more now...AMAZING shadow! Thanks for the recommendation!♥️♥️

[@cannberry]

I want all of them! All of these neutrals are just what I’ve been looking for this entire time! Thank you so much!

My favorite single shadow is colourpop cusp super shock shadow. It is the perfect green and my absolute favorite makeup product. It makes me feel beautiful.

[@ErinCRN]

My favorite one and done eyeshadow is Lancôme Le Monochromatique in Ooh La La! It’s magic!

[@Loralarify]

[@redolentkate]

Oh MAC, sooooo many classics, so glad to hear they brought some back. Kid ♥. Uninterrupted ♥♥♥! What were they thinking, canceling the OG mustard grunge?? I still have my OG large pro pan of Uninterrupted~~ that I searched far and wide for, as I got it on the far end of it's cancel, I mean it being "retired", nice to know I can purchase a fresh one if I so choose. Would not even have thought to look since I am flush on MAC singles, thanks for the update Mel! Alicia ~~kinkysweat~~ (and you Mel, with the meticulous blend of the first shadow you apply in your looks), gave me the appreciation and the learned restraint of the one and done shadow ~~ with the " you could just stop right here and be done" I hear Alicia's voice as I type that ......and then fabulous tutorials continue with ALL the glorious shadows ♥. Mel, not that you will actually see and read this comment, but one and done shadow looks are a thing I mostly did with my Chantecaille Endangered Species shadows ~~ yes I bought the glutinous, divinely glorious, 6 pack in the special coffret ~~ with discounts, promo codes, etc. Have you Chantecaille'ed? Do you like their $$$$$$$$ shadows? Anyone else, please weigh in as well. I love the ones I bought ~~ will I buy more? Probably naught. $$$$$ Pretty sure I am set. And, now, I covet Mink ~~~ thank you Victoria B, dang it. HG Smoke = ♥, def from Samantha. Thank you, Mel ~~ for the levity and divine pigment escape this evening, so needed. for all of us. Stay safe, stay well.

[@tanhome7]

LOVED this video!!! The Chanel one.....😍 I adore the Hourglass Scattered Light pots and Smoke is my fav shade out of the 3 I own. (Also enjoy the Olive I’ve, can’t recall the name) I really like CT Rose Gold cream shadow but I might need to try her Pillowtalk Jewel Pot too after seeing it here. Thank you for all the swatches, and you can seriously wear anything and make it look it’s very best Mel! 😘

[@jgkicks4864]

Hourglass Smoke with Marc Jacobs The Big O in my crease is my go-to if I’m not sure what I’m wearing yet that day. Goes with literally everything but looks like you really tried!

My favorites are the Dior mono shadow in Cosmopolite, which is a powder but so effing creamy you wouldn't know it, Chanel Ombre Premier in Patine Bronze, and Chantecaille Luminescent Eye Shade in Pangolin. Would love to know what BB brush that is...I have yet to find the perfect brush for applying creams shadows, and I've tried a ton.

I didn’t know about the Ciate ones - thanks for that! So far, I like most of the pots that I have tried. The best value I have found is with the Canadian company Lise Watier - lower price and the ones I’ve tried are just as nice as CT, etc.
