This eye palette is perfect for you and your coloring-- just a beautiful look you created ❤!

[@LexiJong]

Thank you so much!!

[@cwynn1547]

I am going to be looking at all my brushes now 😅 for the GAP.

[@LexiJong]

Lol, hopefully yours are good!

[@yuliabudd4401]

You look stunning Lexi!! You are my inspiration for putting colors together. You always look so effortless. ❤

[@LexiJong]

Thank you so much!!

[@DeborahCarlston]

Those eyeliners look beautiful. I'll be getting the three you chose, and maybe the white. In fact I was thinking how pretty they would be with my SUQQU palettes (Rikka and Spring), particularly the purple one coming this Summer. Your Prada foundation looks gorgeous. As for the silly D&G chain, if you attach a ribbon to each end, you can wear it as a necklace. It seems heavy enough. Thanks for the video!💚

[@LexiJong]

I agree! I also thought about them with the suqqu palettes and I think they will be gorgeous. That's a good idea for the chain! I'll try that out!

[@terra_82]

Love this look on you!! ❤ Makes me want to buy the palette even it comes broken!!

[@LexiJong]

I'm going to see if I can find similar shades that are perhaps a bit better.

[@lipstickrulesmylife]

The promo pics on the DG palette looked nice and I do think it looks beautiful on you. I understand about the glitter and it's a shame it came broken. Maybe they'll fix that going forward. The liners look fun and of course the brushes are beautiful , but a shame maybe they rushed production that they are not finished on par with other brushes and the lip gloss is a great color.😊👏😍

[@LexiJong]

I agree. I hope the new palettes are fixed because it's a beautiful color story. Thank you so much for watching and have a great day!

[@mariezapanta8839]

Omg, the liquid eyeliner colors and the palette are so gorgeous!

[@LexiJong]

They really are!

[@pam8200]

Hi Lexi, the palette shades are indeed mernaid-like beautiful swatched and I am a glitter fan but that's very disappointing you received a broken shade... and yes others have had the same experience. Glad the liners worked out for you and you're rating them highly. The La Mer is a beautiful shade in the bottle and lovely on but it's definitely more subdued applied. That's too bad about the brush gap between the ferrule and the hair. It makes me wonder about longevity when washing them bc of that gap. Thank you for such great, detailed feedback on these items. I really appreciate your hard work and unbiased opinion. 🥰✨❤️

[@LexiJong]

I am also concerned about water getting into the ferrule too easily. I am not sure if I can return mine since I already washed and used them but I would recommend that option to others. Thank you so much for watching Pam and have a great day!

[@janine4360]

@@LexiJongI cannot imagine either Beautylish or Sonia G wouldn’t stand behind their products and let you return something with an apparent manufacturing defect… keep us posted. 😉

[@veronicajackson4849]

Hi Lexi. Patty Alonso had a shade that was shattered as well. I think it is the same blue shade, so it must be a quality control issue. Its a shame but you pulled it off beautifully. 😀

[@LexiJong]

Thank you! Such a shame that this seems to be a consistent problem for people.

[@astardustparade]

You’re the only makeup reviewer I enjoy watching. You introduced me to the Guerlain Kiss Kiss Bee Balm. I bought the shade Poppy and I love it! 🐝 ❤️

[@LexiJong]

Thank you so much! I am honored!

[@jocelynel-fab5214]

Hi Lexi! So unfortunate that your D&G palette arrived damaged. Thank you for your honest review of this palette. I wish D&G were available in Canada because I would order some of the eyeliners - great colors for spring and summer. Thank you for sharing your Prada foundation shade match. Regarding the SG Traditions Select brushes - it’s both surprising and disappointing that the set you received is “defective” - hopefully you can get a replacement set or a refund. Thanks for another great video.

[@LexiJong]

Thank you Jocelyne! I really hope there aren't too many brushes like mine out there.

[@sosnow6194]

I palet looks stuuuuunning !!!! I hâte the design of the packaging but at the same time I could care less, but the shadows !!! It gives me italy, capri sun joy boldness summer and spring ! I love it !!

[@LexiJong]

I'm so glad to hear that!

[@catporter8417]

Uh oh on the new Sonia G brushes...and I really wanted that smudger brush not only for its specific use but because of the mix of hair. SIGH....I'll check out the previous set. Thank you for your honesty, Lexi!

[@LexiJong]

Thanks! It sounds like some people aren’t having the same issue but enough people are that it is a concern imo.

[@safrica229]

My Sonia G TS2 & TS4 have gaps too, not sure what to do

[@LexiJong]

I think a return is probably the best option if possible. I'm not sure if I can return mine after washing but I'm afraid that water is going to get into these ferrules and the glue will be disturbed.

[@maureenturk8578]

I’m showing my age here, but this palette just has no appeal to me. Playful shades and high glitter for $89? Will pass on this one. Great job, as always, of showing us the palette in full detail. Your swatches and comparisons to competing brands are unparalleled. Thanks Lexi! ❤

[@LexiJong]

Thank you Maureen!

[@exomake_mehorololo]

Very fun eye products!! I enjoy D&G s packaging. So far this year I've not bought much. Not much excited me😊so far the new Givenchy and Chantecaille trios really attract me and I loved every look I have seen. Love the packaging too. I do like this new D&G!😊 I use the Charlotte Tilbury holiday palette all the time and this seems a more colourful version but similar concept. I'm looking forward to the new Tom Ford quad w the green shade!! Are you gonna try that one? Otherwise I'm thinking to pick up the older Dior backstage palettes in the plum, coral or cool neutrals 😅I like the size and getting 9 shades. I have amber neutrals and I like the formulas/options better than the quints.. I was actually surprised how much I liked it (although I love the toppers /metallics in the quints). Did you ever review those Dior backstage? 😅Looking for old reviews. I know you owned some.

[@LexiJong]

If you can find the older Dior palettes, they are worth picking up. I haven't seen cool neutrals in a while. I have reviewed some of the backstage palettes like the cool neutrals which is a favorite. I am definitely looking forward to trying some of the new makeup coming soon and I'm strongly considering the TF. Thanks for watching and have a great day!

[@kareneleanor_]

Hi Lexi!! The palette is a beautiful color story and looks incredible on your eyes. I really like the eyeliners and used your link to order the same colors you showed. Unfortunately in the hour that I waited to purchase the three the purple sold out. So I only got the two blue ones I’m hoping the purple will come back? Lol 😂

[@LexiJong]

I hope it comes back! I hope you like the blue ones!

[@kareneleanor_]

I was able to get the purple one since it came back in stock!

[@catherinelynnfraser2001]

Thanks for reviewing this. The colour story is beautiful but I have dupes. I was really interested in the La Mer lip plumper. I did buy two of the SG eye brushes: TS2 and TS3. I don’t notice a gap.

[@LexiJong]

I'm so glad you don't have a gap in yours!

[@catherinelynnfraser2001]

@@LexiJong they are pricey but they work beautifully, so far. I guess this release was a bit rushed?

[@dawnbonome9056]

The plastic container is very cheap looking for an expensive item - $89.00. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this.

[@LexiJong]

Thanks for watching!

[@exomake_mehorololo]

Are you going to do a new releases video soon? They are always so helpful

[@LexiJong]

I literally just finished filming it!

[@ddavidjp]

i like the eyeshadows but i just can’t look at the chaotic placing and the clunky, loud, packaging. i understand it’s the brand’s vibe but it doesn’t feel luxurious - it’s almost like a kid’s toy palette.

[@LexiJong]

The layout reminds me of the old Guerlain holiday palettes if you remember those...

[@lauramiller5877]

Hi Lexi..just wondered if you will be reviewing the new YSL bronzer in 01? I am in two minds and thought you may review it in the lightest shade? 💕

[@LexiJong]

Yes! Coming up tomorrow!

[@lauramiller5877]

@@LexiJong amazing! look forward to watching then ☺️

[@lee_lora32]

Lexi, thank you for reviewing the D&G eye palette & Sonia G brushes. That’s a shame you got the palette twice and it came with a shadow broken twice. Something definitely wrong there. And I’m so surprised by the Sonia G brushes. I did not purchase these but I’m curious what happened because that’s not common for Sonia G brushes. Thank you for letting us know about these issues. I guess not everything can get a good review. 😊🌺

[@LexiJong]

Thank you so much Lora! Have a great weekend!

[@christinah.8504]

did your replacement palette come in better shape? I'm not getting any luck with my replacement not being busted up. I wonder if you had better luck?

[@LexiJong]

They were out of stock so did not replace mine. I was refunded instead.

[@LisaF_]

I’m shocked you didn’t attach your chunky chain to the palette! 😮 How will you hook the palette to your keychain or wear it on your belt? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 The palette packaging looks cheap to me, I hate the weird shape, I dislike the inconsistent spacing between the pans… BUT MAN THE SHADES ARE SO PRETTY! I love the swatches and the look you made in the intro is beautiful! It looks so great. I love that there are so many different looks you can get from the palette, too. I was totally going to go for it until you said the quality of the mattes was just meh. What a shame. I hope they keep improving their formulas because they are on the right track! I want that lavender liner and I don’t usually do liquid liners. It’s a shame about the mixed hair Sonia brushes. They were on my list, but I held off because I decided to get more BoBo brushes and some other Sonia G’s that finally came back in stock. But now these are off my list, and I’m so happy I had waited. Thank you for another extremely helpful video!!

[@LexiJong]

Lol, you are too funny! I would love to see someone wearing the palette down the street. I hope you enjoy your new brushes!!

[@beckybeighley]

i'm still getting this, but this is similar to one of the first fenty beauty eyeshadow palettes

[@beckybeighley]

okay after the wear review, I'm not paying that much for mediocre shadows. I think it's hilarious they think you could ever attach this to your PURSE.

[@LexiJong]

Lol, it's funny

[@ShazzaDazzle]

hi Lexi, the DG shades look gorgeous, i like how the glitters look but hope they fix the pans so the formula doesn't fall out, the liners have me most intrigued by, the fluidity over the glitters especially. i'm glad i skipped these Sonia G LE release, i couldn't justify the cost in my currency and seems i made the right choice but how disappointing for everyone who received brushes that are not up to expectations.

[@LexiJong]

Thanks Siobhan!

[@JeannetteRiquelhmeMUA]

Dear Lexi I have a question! Did D& G replaced your damaged eyeshadow palette? I’ve order twice same palette, first order got lost, they refunded me, I ordered second time which I got it today completely destroyed. Meanly the two shimmer shades. It’s chaotic bc the shimmers are all over 🥲I contacted them but I feel hopeless bc I can’t even touch any shade. It’s worse than yours.

[@LexiJong]

The refunded me since the palette was out of stock. It's really such a mess and this seems to be such a widespread problem that I'm not going to reorder. It's very disappointing.

[@JeannetteRiquelhmeMUA]

@@LexiJong you did a wise decision! I did re order the palette for third time! The first order got lost according to D&G, the second came totally destroyed and I’m on the waiting for the third. Very bad experience and I’m between discouraged and disappointed but hoping they make it right
