Colourpop Bare Necessities Palette 3 Looks, Overview & Comparisons

[@mary3039]

I love your thorough colourpop reviews! I feel like you are the only one that takes drugstore palette reviews as seriously as luxury ones. I really appreciate that.

[@melthompson2856]

I appreciate you!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@marilenami]

I completely agree. I hate the 'it's OK for this price point' and I bought something that I cannot use.

[@mary3039]

@@marilenami exactly!

[@ordinaryallie]

I actually really appreciate when you do tutorial looks and don’t do the liner and mascara/lashes! Sometimes I feel like others use them to cover up an eye look and make it look better than it is, but when you show is this way, it’s really nice to actually see how the shadows are performing and have no distractions.

[@Willowy13]

It is good to see looks that work without them so we girls that can't wear lashes, liners or mascaras (I'm allergic to dimethicone) can have ideas.

[@taraball1030]

I would love to see your version of "Best and Worst of Colourpop"! (If you havent already) I really trust your opinion!!! 😉

[@antigonepc]

Love and miss you Mel!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@ZaynabYT]

Thank you!! I feel like so many people are happy to recommend anything from colourpop just because of the great value for money - especially with the bigger palettes. But consistency throughout a palette should be just as important!

[@bluewonho215]

Completely agree, yes Colourpop is affordable but any brand can have duds, and swatches don't tell you that

[@lunaam9343]

[@kellihovanec755]

Yes colourpop does have very good prices and most of the time very good products. But, a bad product is bad no matter what the price. And I want to know truthfully how something performs before spending my money. A dollar spent on something I'm not going to get use out of is still a dollar wasted.

[@teacheschem]

The great part is that they are usually removable. For instance I get rid of all the glitters in my palettes and replace them with shades from another. I wish they would sell the mini shadows.

[@Willowy13]

@@teacheschem I do this with these bigger palettes. I had a Modern Mattes from BH that I changed all 28 colors for Looxie/Devinah/Sydneygrace shadows when I realized I was allergic to dimethicone.

[@LisaMonique]

I just got it today. I can’t wait to start playing with it, I hope I have more luck with the colors than you did!

[@frebreeziemarie5769]

Your eyes do look stunning, the eyes 👀 this makes your eyes look bangin’! The color of your eyes are standing out more, like a beautiful glimmer!

[@michadawn234]

I just found Bailey and I love her!!! I have had this palette for a week or 2& I love it. I love it as a stand alone and it works well with other palettes especially the JackieA. palette from ABH.

[@jobee1]

Thanks for the great tutorials on this palette. I purchased this but haven’t used it yet. Now I excited too. Hope you and your sweet family are safe and toasty warm inside while the snow falls.

[@SofieGoody]

I miss you so much Mel! I hope you’re at peace! ❤️❤️❤️

[@jeannemiura219]

This palette is GORGEOUS! Just gone mine and applies great! Thanks for the review...

[@krystalmoody7092]

Good morning Mel and Mel’s crew. Love it. Have a great day. What a great video to start my day with. I was just thinking which colourpop palette to get. 💕💕

[@carolynlindenmayer3577]

Sorry to hear this was inconsistent. I was really tempted to order this one. Great review and I did love the first 2 eye looks in particular.

[@lubazak636]

I would have jumped in, on this pallet, but, because I already have all or most of the neutral or neutral leaning brownish, rosy and burgundy pallets. Going Coconuts, Double Entendre, Give it to me Straight, You Had me at Hello, and Fem Rosa have all these colors and have no issues. If some of these are discontinued, there are, or will be new pallets with those shades, next week. Too bad you had issues with this one. It seemed like such a good pallet for beginners or those without much of an eyeshadow collection. Great review and looks as usual. As usual, love your reviews and looks.

[@frebreeziemarie5769]

The palette is pretty, but I have enough shadows until tomorrow 😬 thanks for the video Mel! 😘

[@Wouldntyouliketoknow1111]

This look is SO 80’s and I’m into it!

[@melthompson2856]

😍😍😍

[@raenbo_]

Mel, ya breaking mah heart lady! I ordered this 11/30 and I’m still eagerly waiting on it, although less eagerly now that I’ve seen your review. I’m sure I’ll still get a good $30 use out of it. I was hoping it would turn out to be an expanded Coconuts palette bc I adore that little thing. BTW, I do not consider ColourPop “drugstore” as many are calling it in comments. It’s the only non-luxe shadows I’ll buy and that’s because my (admittedly limited) experience with them has been that the quality is on par with my other palettes. Yes, the price is lower, but overall, the shadow quality isn’t. Sure there are misses, but I’ve found that with every brand. Okay okay, I can’t say I’ve experienced a Pat miss, but I only have one of her palettes simply bc her color stories are just TOO.. for me to personally wear usually. So I’m very glad you include CP in your repertoire of brand reviews. But seriously, WTH is your code? Come on ColourBomb (RBK), this is one cool chick you don’t want to skip! ❤️❤️

[@GratefulDrea2]

Just got it yesterday too and immediately get a look and was so disappointed. I’m just going to depot the good ones and dump the rest sadly. There are some good ones so you can get some locks it’s just really powdery

[@stephanieavital8737]

Heidi Marceaux I ordered the coconut palet and some more products on December the 6th, ( international shipping ) and my order is still pending !!!!I hope I will enjoy these products, it’s my first time 🤷‍♀️

[@tiffprendergast]

Heidi Marceaux yup

[@tiffprendergast]

Stephanie Avital their shipping stinks

[@jenlauren143]

This palette looks way better on the eyes than it does in pics. I love the reddish/brown eye color and the first look you did was stunning! 😍😍

[@TaraLynnbeauty]

I seriously could watch you blend shadow ALL DAY. Seriously, you are sooooo crazy talented. My gosh, every time I see you blend a shadow for every look im always Mesmerized❤❤❤

[@lef0503]

Yessss Bailey Merch!! Love both of you so much!! Thanks for these reviews, Mel! I decided to just get the Going Coconuts palette bc I didn’t feel like I needed a giant neutral palette.

[@janchav7078]

I love your reviews/tutorials. Not only are you super detailed in the tutorial which I love but you are so honest. Even with the biggest/most popular companies. I always trust your reviews.

[@melthompson2856]

Thank you!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@deettekearns9092]

Love that you matched your lipstick with your eye color in the opening. It makes your eyes really pop!

[@bonnielee2810]

I also feel the same way but towards the So Jaded Palette 🙁 the shimmers are so inconsistent

[@cynthiaalvarado3287]

Hi Mel I enjoyed your video this morning I really was impressed with your thoughts on the colour-pop pallet thanks for the tip anyways I have a blessed day and I'll see you in the next video love you girl have a blessed day

[@CC-ll3ek]

Mel, Your talent is unbelievable! You’re makeup skills are impeccable. I can’t wait to see your channel hit 1 million subscribers. I’m going to be the first one in line celebrating 🥳.

[@Litsaki1000]

Perfect timing, hey beauty ❤️❤️❤️

Hey, beauty! 😻😻😻

I have had that song stuck in my head for days because of this palette. 😂

[@melthompson2856]

😍😂😂

[@nancy2371]

Thanks Mel, I almost bought it on Black Friday! Something told me wait for reviews... especially yours ... saved some $ I do have the going coconuts palette... love it!

[@creepypapermultipack]

Seeing you wear the Too Poor for Couture shirt by Bailey is making me so happy 😆

[@mywarlock3557]

I love the second eye of the first look, beautiful ❤❤❤❤

[@jenniferbailey2169]

Love your Bailey Sarian sweatshirt! You two are my faves!

[@kellihovanec755]

I'm so glad you said you can't get that song out of your head too. Before it even came out as soon as I saw that name it was over for me. Of course I'm old enough I'm reminded of the original cartoon version of the movie.

[@irenea7987]

Thank you for sharing! All the fall out was driving me nutsLOL

[@louisesharpy]

I have Double Entendre, and give it to me straight. Also 25 singles non going to hold off on this one. I am getting going Coconuts tho !! I love their shadows and formula. Love that you reviews for us !!!!!

[@TaraLynnbeauty]

Last comment. I always appreciate your honesty and you review everything the same, whether it's high end or affordable, you are consistent and that's so admirable. Love you Boo💋

[@GlitzyFritzy]

I don’t think I will like that palette very much. But I love the eye looks that you did 😍💋 love you!

[@AllMagic_Comeswith_aPrice]

I have almost all of the Zoeva brushes for face and eyes and the quality is amazing!! 😻 they blend like a dream! And i just got both of these palettes in the mail. I might try and recreate your looks. Love your videos! Xoxo 💋

[@sandywilkerson1843]

I would love a single of silk teddy. I was wanting you to do a look with that color when I saw your Swatch out it.

[@meganboyles8768]

Thank you for your honest review! I was really interested in this one but I have the double entendre and maybe I’ll just pick up the coconut one!

[@stephk3221]

I feel like this is the perfect every day pallet.

[@TaraFye1]

I was wondering if you were going to review and do tutorials on the Melt Muerte and Vida palettes? I just picked them up and I’m in LOVE, and I’d love to see the looks you come up with for inspiration!

[@mrsunnecessary910]

Love that you are rockin Bailey Sarian merch

[@melthompson2856]

😍😍😍

[@Naedlj]

Love the Bailey Sarian merch! I want this palette but I’m not allowing myself to buy anymore palettes until this spring. I went a little too crazy this fall and bought 10 palettes... 😬

[@kellihovanec755]

I'm with ya there. My 3 big weaknesses are 1. Eyeshadow palettes 2. Brushes 3. Highlighters. In no particular order of course. Just what is in front of me at any given time.

[@Kiyonce.Kartier]

Wow. What did you get?

[@Naedlj]

Kiyoncé Kartier I got... The Tarte Tartlette in Bloom palette The Tarte Tartlette Toasted palette The Tarte Rainforest of the Sea palette The Jeffree Star X Shane Dawson Conpiracy palette The Jeffree Star X Shane Dawson Mini Controversy palette The Jeffree Star Blue Blood palette The Jeffree Star Blood Sugar palette The Tati Beauty Textured Neutrals palette The ColourPop Anna palette The ColourPop Elsa palette The ColourPop Midnight Masquerade palette The Laura Lee Los Angeles Nudie Patootie palette And the ABH Jackie Aina palette Oh crap! I got more than I thought! Definitely putting myself on a No-Buy!

[@gia6743]

Thanks Mel for another awesome video. It's a shame that the formula isn't that great because the shades are beautiful. I am glad I picked up the Going Coconuts palette and Double Enetendre palettes they are so beautiful. 💗

[@nikis5860]

Wow! I just got that today in the mail. Thanks for the ideas as I was thinking about what I wanted to do tomorrow. I also just bought your lip liner and lipstick and can't wait to get it! Thanks for the great videos 😁

[@normamartinez9439]

Queen of all beauties, will be missed and remembered forever🖤💔

[@olfab1]

I bought this palette on Black Friday and I really like it. I don't own any other colourpop palettes besides the yellow and purple monochromatic ones, so this is like having Double Entendre, Going Coconuts, Give it to me straight etc.all in one palette for $30, which was totally worth it. Honestly, I don't have any palette in my collection (mostly luxury brands) that's perfect, they all have their pros and cons.

[@edmmonds]

I thought you were not going to purchase this palette! I bought it and it’s one of my favorite palettes! I am obsessed 😍

[@lisacorreia7160]

So so glad that you got this. I purchased the palette after your purchase or pass and I LOVE it!

[@lisacorreia7160]

To me, for the price, even if only a majority of the shadows work, its worth it. I don’t use a ton of colors in my looks, so this palette works for me.

[@mzmerryweather]

You have the best sense of humor!🙃😂😂 now I have visions of Balu 🐻 dancing in his grass skirt and coconut bra...ok...that pallets sure has some pretty colors,especially the all 4 u! I don’t have any colour pop eyeshadows and will take your advice cause the coconut one sure is pretty

[@seigaassad2553]

Love ur reviews as always very thorough and detailed ! Beautiful looks and beautiful palette ❤️

[@melthompson2856]

Thank you!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@jennifermajor5190]

I would like to see the comparisons with the bare nessesities vs, bouqet of neurtrals. Its the 3 palletes making mauves, Nude mood and blush crush. that would be interesting to see if it would be worth it to buy the 3 vs. the one palette. How they compare on shades as well. Thanks

[@reneklein6049]

Thank you, Mel. Now I'm singing Bare Necessities. Loved the Jungle Book. We had that same awful weather 2 days ago. Not fun. Pretty colors in the palette, and I absolutely loved the looks you created. Thanks, sweet Mel! 💘👏👏

Great review and I was wondering about the difference in those pallets. Coconut is what I was thinking about getting but saw the neutrals. Now I know. Because Mel made me buy it 😉

[@connieruggiero4621]

My Going Coconuts palette arrived this morning which I love, but already I'm champing at the bit to get Bare Necessities as well. The colours are beautiful as are the looks you created. Btw Baloo 🐻is my favourite character from Jungle Book 😁💚.

I just don't think I need a 30 shade palette even though some of the shades are really nice. Edit: I'm glad I contained myself bc without your review I don't feel safe lol

[@Heather_isms]

Thank-you for sharing your experience with this palette. Big palettes aren't for me, so I don't think that I'll be missing out. No shade to other's, simply trust your opinion a lot. If it doesn't perform for you, it won't work for me as an unskilled makeup enthusiast. ❤🐞

[@YT247Now]

Oh how I wish I had waited for your review! I always wait to see what you think before making a purchase but I went for it with the Black Friday 30% off sale and it’s en route. I have the other two palettes and love them. I can’t stop wearing the Going Coconuts palette. It’s so gorgeous!

My goodness! You have the most perfect eyebrows. I used to have them but spent my youth in the 90's when the trend was to pluck them so thin. I am still to this day trying to grow them back out. I advice all young girls not to follow trends because they come and go and you may lose what the good Lord gave you. And just on another note, I used to live in Tennessee but now live in Munich, Germany and I can't believe how much more snow you are getting than us this season!

HOW DO I CLEAN MY PALETTES?? lol

[@melthompson2856]

lol!!! I usually take a q-tip and a bit of alcohol ❤️❤️❤️

[@terrihagen5088]

Mel - I am fairly new - so I am sure you have gone over this. But can you tell me what you have underneath your eyes when you are putting on your eye shadow's and what the purpose is. THANK YOU!!!!!

[@tiramisu8483]

She's baking. It's pretty much just setting powder lightly pressed under her eye to set the makeup and prevent creases and by doing her eye makeup while she bakes, any fallout is caught by the powder and you can easily brush it off without compromising the foundation underneath.
