I know a few people have been waiting weeks for this review, apologies for the delay... this review ended up taking a month to finish! Late night editing has been impossible while sick (and also with a sick baby). My project pan/pan that palette check in and review of my March purchases will be coming asap (they were filmed over a week ago, just need to edit them!). Hope everyone is well xo

[@Patrick95]

No worries Kat! Take good care of yourself and your baby! 😁

[@catrice1296]

Thanks for accompanying me during my 3 am insomnia episode.

[@carolynlindenmayer3577]

No worries, don't stress. Everyone understands. Hope you feel better soon. xx

[@sallyboyd4532]

Lots of bugs around at the moment! Hope you and bubba are getting better. PS the earrings in your first look/opening are gorgeous.

[@Yolanda8419]

No big deal, Kat. Being sick with a sick baby is nothing anyone ever wants. Get well, both of you.

[@lisanadile4688]

No one can deep dive into a palette like you Kat. No one.

[@han__nya]

They should make the shade Gday available as a single. It's literally the only shade I want in the palette.

[@ndeluca77]

You should check out the Terra Moons single in Saturn's Rings. I wanted this palette for that color then I realized that I could the same look with that shadow. Their chameleon shadows are incredible.

[@TheMissBeki]

Being sick with a baby is blah .. being sick and a sick baby is absolute nightmare town .. sorry gorgeous ... hope you are both doin well now and thriving .. love youse x

[@KitschSnitch]

Thanks honey! We’re better now but I think I now have a teething bub who is very moody and clingy! Fun times. Love youse more! ❤️

[@Anlisa23]

I watch like a million makeup youtubers but you are the only one who makes me screenshot all the looks and then try to recreate them!! Just amazing 😍 thanks for the inspo ❤️

[@KitschSnitch]

Thank you so much 😊

[@macarahcollins6963]

Yes same here! I definitely want to look through my collection for similar type shades and try these looks for myself!!

[@BlingyBea]

Me too

[@Nukemoth]

That yellow look is GORGEOUS!

[@rach9110]

Stoked for this review! Awesome to see Aussie's out there doing great things

[@susannemulholland4804]

Ohhh I've been waiting for this!

[@KitschSnitch]

[@lizstyla88]

I just wanted to thank you for pushing through with reviewing this pallete even through losing footage, being sick and general business. You came up with some creative looks.

[@noodlemaiden7619]

Well done for preserving and getting this up. I always rewatch these videos, even if the palette doesn't do it for me. The yellow look is my favourite, I find those colours so fresh and flattering

[@KitschSnitch]

Thank you! I love the yellow look too! Editing this reminded me how many pretty looks I created! I forgot about them since it took so long to film 😆

[@madamesyrin]

I love these rewies and will definitely recreate few looks. I love your looks with palette because they work great outside of instagram and youtube.

[@ems_h.eartnotes]

I love the looks you created and how they were more subtle, rather than a typical packed on application of colourful shades. If I had the money for this palette, I would for sure buy it. Blasted pandemic!

[@theresebreen1243]

Yes, the colours are gorgeous, aren't they?

[@SS_S.]

I've never seen a multi chrome shadow captured so well on camera before. Thank you for persevering and getting this review to us despite everything that happened, and I'm delighted to discover an Aussie indie brand 😊

[@Epputi]

I love the look #4!! And thank you for the different currencies shown, it is very helpful :)

[@KitschSnitch]

Thank you! Happy to help ❤️

[@Erikaahh_Mae]

I want to get this not only for it being aussie like me but the image on the front reminds me of McLeod's Daughters. Which was an aussie show when I was growing up that I watched. Tbh I probably wasnt their demographic age but loved it.

[@KitschSnitch]

Haha that’s a flash back

[@TheJukeboxwidow]

McLeod's daughters is on Prime, & on my list to rewatch 😄

[@MissReneeMichelle]

FINALLY ordered this!!! I CANNOT wait to receive it!!! LOOOVE supporting other women!!

[@beautifinessgal7478]

Woohoo! Been waiting to see this!

[@wombatlittle1]

Wow how you made your own colour in look 2 seriously impressed.

[@peacelovefrends1991]

Fair play Kat- I'd have given up ! The looks you created were stunning on you and with your brown eyes , not sure it's for me but fantastic review as always

[@lyddie465]

really appreciated this review!! the looks, the variety of looks, the wear tests, all on top of all your challenges. thank you so much!!

[@kaylap2637]

Ooooooh I’ve been so looking forward to this review! Thanks Kat 💚

[@madisonsmith96]

This video was well worth the wait. These looks are all gorgeous!!

[@sarahanne4772]

I’ve been hanging out for this vid and I got my shipping notification today so it’s a good day 🥰

[@laurenloreeen1828]

Love all of these looks! They look so beautiful on youuu!

[@beautyunboxed530]

The first look is my favourite. Its stunning!

[@simplyrowen]

I love these videos Kat, your commitment, how lengthy and thorough you are. I’m 3 minutes in. Let’s do this! 🍿🍻

[@angelic_venom]

Love this review. Thank you!

i have NEVER been more excited for a video

🥰🥰🥰

[@RoseFlavourLucy]

love every look you did honestly

[@kittychatalot]

Love this type of video!

[@MegaRoro16]

So pumped for this !!! I ordered mine in the first pre-order, hopefully it arrives soon. So excited for it. Love your detailed reviews you’re the review queen ! You never miss 🙌🏻

[@meg..meg.]

Glad you are feeling better. I'm loving that lipstick on you :) and your hair looks wonderful :)

[@fortheloveoflike3996]

Great review thank you!

[@karensnailstudio7171]

I love the looks you did, more on the wearable side & so pretty!! Great review, I missed the first 2 preorders but will definitely pick up this palette at some stage. Love the Aussie theme! ❤️❤️❤️

[@orangetigerlilylane1111]

Awesome review! Thanks for taking the time to make the video.

[@edwardsjarje]

Thanks for the inspiration. Lately I’ve been trying to recreate looks with what I have (no buy hell) and yours are my favorite to try because we have the same eye shape and coloring. Great video even if it took a long time. Your tenacity is very much appreciated.

[@shumin9707]

Thank you for sharing so many beautiful look! You are so so inspiring 💗

[@tiiaplays9087]

thanks for the thorough review!! I think it's so cool they added explanations for non-aussies like me :D

[@charmedbymeghan]

You have such a beautiful complexion 💓

[@hellepetersen8772]

I love this.. 1 week, 1 palette review. ❤️

[@jenniferjsaracino]

Stay healthy Kat we can wait of new content! Hope bubs feels better soon!

[@manuelag9838]

Been waiting for this review since you posted the first look on Insta! I'm sorry the process was so crazy with obstacles for you though! Lost footage and sick and.. hoooo you are a trooper!! Thank you for the fab work and content and attention to detail! And as always beauuuuuuutiful looks!

[@decembrya]

Gorgeous looks! Thank you for the review this must have taken ages to do ♥️

[@whoathatsanicememe3093]

Thanks for all the time spent working on this. Edit to add: number 5 is definitely my favorite. Love that red and the multi chrome definitely made it look just like a beautiful gold, red, orange, yellow like halo effect on the eye.

[@TheMissBeki]

I just love your reviews Kat .. so comprehensive. I really balked at the price of this one, especially considering my days makeup free have increased considerably and I had a suspicion that it was not going to be flattering on my skin tone. Love the concept and I want to support an Aussie Indie brand. I am hoping they bring out a number 2 that demands my money :)

[@Ieat2much]

3weeks one palette honestly. So sorry for the trouble you had and as always get well soon. Appreciate your review in spite of sick Mum and sick bubbs. 🙏🏽 ‘ she’ll be alright’ make me laugh and reminds me of How To Dad. He’s kiwi though. The palette is bomb and congrats on an Aussie release. Hope they make the improvements as you mentioned. .heard they are a brand that listens to feedback which is wonderful.

[@TheJukeboxwidow]

Stunning looks #4 is my favourite! I hope you & Sebastian are feeling better ♥️

[@Ceccan97]

I ordered mine during the second restock, so excited to receive it even though it'll take awhile! 😊

[@sonyabryant3161]

You look great!

[@ievalocmele808]

I got an email that You Beauty and Nocturnal palette are restocked for the last time so I got both, did not want to miss out. Love your reviews on these palettes :)

[@lyndahollins2881]

I love this look Kat, Beautiful. (first pink and green)

[@MariaPaula-uw3ds]

Every palette review in beauty community should be like this... just saying

[@stacew.3537]

Great thorough review! I hope you and baby are feeling better now x I’d love to pick up the G’day shade as a single but unfortunately I think I’ll have to pass on the whole palette due to the cost. I really want to support a small Australian indie brand but I’m currently saving my makeup dollars for a surgery with a private hospital/specialist. Thanks again for such a thorough review that has saved me some dollars! 🖤

[@Yolanda8419]

Hey, lovely Kat. So excited for this.

[@KitschSnitch]

❤️

[@geniej2378]

Woohoo I was waiting for your review on this palette! I have Glaminatrix's last palette and it has quite a lot of formulas in it. Really excited for the shifting shades of the You Beauty palette!

[@KitschSnitch]

I love palettes with multiple formulas! I’m so glad they mix it up 😊

[@earthaforester3141]

I saw this when it launched and wanted it, but couldn't part with the $. So what I didn't was sit on the decision, evaluate my spending, didn't throw away my money on impulse buys from other launches, and saved up. Now I that the next pre-order is tomorrow, I think I'm ready to pay the $73 USD. Its not something I am able to dupe with my collection, which... This is really important and has prevented me from wasting a lot of money this year. Whenever there is a palette you want, test out the shades you already own first and see if it's something that's even special or if you just want it cuz it the new and the packaging is cool or whatever. Be honest. Anyway.... This is unique to my collection, and I also value and want to support indie brands. And I've saved up by being more conscious with my purchases. So I'm getting this. And I think I will enjoy it a lot more because I've had time to think about it.

[@mohaameed3609]

God blessed your project dear

[@catsreadbooks9359]

I've been tempted to try this brand & I pretty much buy only indie shadows but these colors as a whole don't really do it for me. I'd love if they did a locale theme - like Ayer's Rock and desert, maybe reefs and beaches, etc. I'm a lot more compelled to buy a smaller color range in a palette. Still this is such a cute idea with the shade names & it's quite pretty & you always find such creative ways to play with color. Great video!

[@lucindas723]

Hmmm kinda I see 2 x 6 pan pallets when I look at this palette and admittedly my eye is drawn to the more neutral side. I agree that brown shade would've be much better as a deep plum colour...I think it's cool they are offering a different brown shade for people who have deeper skin tones though (never seen a brand do that before). I may still buy this because it's supporting an Aussie indie brand but it will depend when the next pre-sale is, the last ones were when I'm driving home after nightshift or asleep so I missed them. If nothing else they've got my strength attention and that's not easy to do in such a saturated market. Hope you are feeling better Kat... first looks I've seen with this palette that didn't make me think grimacy thoughts about my age 😂

[@annewhite5942]

I managed to get this palette in the second preorder and I’m excited to use it. As a fellow Aussie I couldn’t go past the theme either. Thanks for all your hard work on the review. You’ve given me some inspiration, especially mixing shades and colour combinations I never would have tried 😘

[@KitschSnitch]

I’m glad you found it helpful! Looking back I really love some of the looks I created so I hope you love the palette too ❤️

[@NaharaVensar]

I admire your determination. This review was definitely giving you some issues.

[@katehamilton7796]

I hope you’re feeling better babe babe

[@Catsjamify]

The palette is absolutely gorgeous! If it wasn't cost-prohibitive to get it shipped to Canada I would have ordered it already.

[@ChelleBeeby]

💜💜💜tfs💜💜💜 always so gorgeous.... love the palette, shame it's sold out but am stalking (although I'm never quick enough)

[@denialwrong]

I love your nail color. Great review. I hope you and baby feel better.

[@PeacefulMaelstrom]

It’s Kester Black’s Supersoaker, mentioned in the April 2, 2021 Beauty News. I remember weird things sometimes, but I did check and make sure I was remembering correctly here

[@louizium]

@@PeacefulMaelstrom THANK you for this, I was scrolling the comments to see if someone had asked/mentioned something about the nail color 😆

[@suemoney3384]

Thank you for this video! I love Glaminatrix - I've ordered multiple times from her ❤ born in '81 in the UK .. I watched a lot of Neighbours which is my initial cultural education of Aus, but does mean I recognise the slang terms 😂

[@suemoney3384]

I bought the pallette, of course, in 2 mins of first realease, I'll get my baby some day soon, all being well..

[@emrmch]

They should’ve named it the Alf Stewart palette

[@KitschSnitch]

😆

[@amandadelatorre3790]

Glaminatrix has one of my fav formulas of all time but I noticed the formula seemed a bit different in the last year. I’m dying to know if this is comparable to the formula from a couple years ago bc I much prefer my older shadows.

[@dizzigirl11]

lost my shite when you talked about chockers lol

[@justynawisniewska1213]

I love the colour story and the shimmers are stunning, but it's defo way too pricey for me. If it was easier available in Europe and more affordable I'd pick it up in a heartbeat. Amazing review as always, I still love this formula of creating multiple looks to really test the palette through and through. It's defo worth the wait!

[@KitschSnitch]

Thank you 😊

[@flutraselmani3751]

Where are your earrings from?!☺️

[@FlameMirage]

To be honest, I thought it would have some more sunset vibes just by the packaging. The colour story doesn't make sense to me just at first glance.

[@lilacstorm1495]

The colours are meant to represent the colours and themes of Australia and Australian culture, there are enough sunset pallets on the market anyway :) but I can see the point you’re trying to make because the packaging does give off a sunset vibe!

[@KitschSnitch]

While editing I realized I created a look that mimics the packaging... I think it was look #4.

[@FlameMirage]

I think it was a fair effort. I'm not a company trying to create product though. I would be interested if there was a palette which was based on our indigenous culture, and some proceeds would go to our indigenous community. Just a thought. I mean we got a lotta interesting things around the country as inspiration. I love Melbourne so much, if I made a palette I would have it based on coffee, autumn vibes. Oh no, it's another colourpop palette, nevermind. It's hard to do something unique these days when there's been 1000s of palettes at this point.

[@ellsmellsthings6156]

I love glaminatrix formula and was looking forward to this palette well before they released it. I've missed out on the last 2 preorders. But the longer I am without it, the more I'm thinking I'll just pick up some other singles. Any blue in a palette is almost redundant as I've got enough blues in my collection to last me 5 lifetimes. I love the idea of an 8 pan palette! And lowering the price (but I'd pay the money if I knew I was going to use every shade consistently) I'm still very much on the fence with this one.

[@KitschSnitch]

Yeah I’m the same as you! I don’t use much blue and right now I have enough to last me a life time!

[@whoathatsanicememe3093]

Sometimes waiting works out for the best. I've saved a lot of money by not impulsive buying and then finding out that palette I thought I HAD to have was just another palette with colors I already have.... There are some beautiful shades in this palette but I agree, you can probably grab a single or 2 and be just as happy and have more money left to boot.. I only have 2 eyes and my daughter's aren't into makeup so the makeup I have will last a million years 😆.

[@meg..meg.]

I love the idea of this and the looks you created are wonderful. I don't have as much of a creative eye and would struggle too much. I'm glad I held off and didn't buy this before seeing you review. I'll keep an eye out for the brand - I do like supporting independent, and local, companies but I will have to pass on this.

[@KitschSnitch]

Yeah incompletely understand that! I’m so keen to see which palette they release next ❤️

[@EllisBell]

[@SamanthaMariesMusic]

I bought some Glaminatrix singles a few years ago and the shimmers are beautiful but i had to use my fingers and i couldn’t pick it up with a brush.

[@KitschSnitch]

Ah interesting! I’m glad it wasn’t just me!

[@virgismar]

Beautiful idea, too pricey for me but it is lovely

[@KitschSnitch]

Yeah that’s the downside of indie makeup, it’s beautiful but not cost effective

[@jaycreswell7008]

They're all gum tree colours and native Australian colours. I thought it was quite a uniquely Aussie colour story.

[@KitschSnitch]

That’s fair. I didn’t personally see it as being uniquely Australian. Most countries that that have beaches share most of these colours 😆

[@lyndahollins2881]

Can you please try, review Nikkia Joy Pigments, I have bought 2 or 3 of them, but not really sure how to use them :) thank you

[@KitschSnitch]

Hi! I don't own any sorry, and even though they look very pretty, I don't use pigments very often so I stopped buying them. I think Nikkia has a few videos on her channel demonstrating them. Sorry I can't be of much help!
