Can you please show a comparison of Chill next to Birdsong and Sweetdreams? I'm interested in them all but can't tell how similar they are.

[@Sassyglbeauty]

I don’t understand why Milly doesn’t have a larger channel. To me, she is the Queen of indie brands! ESP multichromes.

[@dariavision]

The QUEEN

[@TheAudraReins]

💯💯💯

[@kristentrep5038]

She’s definitely the shifty shiny queen! She saves me a lot of $$ too, since i always refer to her videos before I drop more $ on multichromes! Without her, I’d end up with even more dupes than I already have! Lol

[@badtothebrow]

Omg you’re so kind ❤️❤️

[@tinanious3077]

Yes Milly is my favorite Beauty Influencer. I love her content. Millly is a very talented artist. I discovered her sometime in 2019 . When Tatti stopped posting, I found Milly I watched her channel grow. Milly is very sweet and REAL !! What you see is what you get , no smoke and mirrors . Milly was the first Beauty Queen that replied back besides Mel Thompson to my comments and questions and gave me that love and respect you would want back . That other influencers don’t do. That’s what makes her the 👸 Beauty Queen she is her talent and most of all her integrity💄💄💄💄💄♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@karenm19]

This video is SO GOOD! You nailed these dupes - it's really cool to see the subtle differences between brands. I wish there was a text overlay stating the brand and color name, but I get that's a lot of work too. The swatches alone are very helpful in making a purchase decision though; especially when the photos on the brand's websites always look amazing.

[@juliasgalaxy5985]

I always take notes when you post lol Seriously I think my last TM order was exactly what you recommend and skipped duping myself over and over 🙏🙏🙏 saving us one shadow at a time !🙌🤣

[@badtothebrow]

Yay!!

[@dewsophine]

Again thanks so much for the comparison swatches- I realize how much extra work it is but it's such a useful reference!

[@badtothebrow]

It was worth it!

[@hayleymariemills]

That pastel look is a 25 outta 10! Absolutely beautiful cotton candy mermaid dreams!! 💜💙

[@badtothebrow]

Thank you so much! 🥺

[@laurac86]

Sleepy Head is my absolute favorite multichrome I get so many compliments when I wear it!

[@tinagardiner4542]

I love the black one and the one you used on your inner corner with it. Both looks equally gorgeous

[@badtothebrow]

Thank you so much ❤️❤️

[@leyniea2706]

Both of these looks are so good. I really enjoyed this in depth comparison, so helpful.

[@megansrandomness1401]

Thank you for delivering your expertise again!! Been looking at Karla cosmetics to try & have been hoping for a sleepyhead demonstration. This helped my decision. 🥳 Thanks again!

[@romeogupta7341]

I’m so glad you revisited Karla cosmetics! I recently got 3 loose pigments from the brand but I gotta say that they’re very pricey and many shades very dupable. I didn’t realize sleepyhead and cosmos were so similar, now it makes me want to swatch those side by side! I did think the sleepyhead promo pics were just a little misleading with how foiled and also baby blue the color is. Not as opaque as I had thought and more textured. It is still very stunning though and I love the mattes you paired it with…!!!

[@badtothebrow]

Yes it’s more textured but still very finely milled particle type it’s interesting. Meanwhile The Cosmos is super flaky and chunky

[@loussaille1]

Just wanted to add, since brexit, when you buy from UK to a EU country, you'll have to pay taxes the same as when you buy from any other area in the world. So if you live in EU, it is cheaper to buy from another EU based brand (or a schengen area country) for example: Lethal, Nabla, Glam shop, LH cosmetics, 1944 Paris, Inglot, Oden's eye, Kryolan...). You'll still have to pay for shipping (in general it costs between 5 to 10€ within the EU) but there won't be customs fees to pay!

[@juliagro4856]

Do you know a german brand which manufacturers multichromes?

[@loussaille1]

@@juliagro4856 yes! Lethal cosmetics do multichromes!

[@becmcspeck5965]

Every set of swatches, I could immediately see which were the clionadh shades. Had me eyeing my Wishlist up again in preparation for the restock haha

[@badtothebrow]

Right?!

[@kittycloud6693]

Millie you're always a great reference for indie shadows. I wish there was some sort of e-reference book where u put swatches, dupes, textures and comments kinda like temptalias page but indie shadows.

[@bedriddenbeauty6504]

My first multichromes I bought was very early in the trend and were gels you had to wear over black. 6 weeks after buying I opened one and it was dried solid and useless. I hope the gel ones have gotten better, but they are tricky regardless. Powder ones have come a long way and are much easier.

[@akaidatenshi]

Lovely. I think I shall look for the less flakey ones

[@clidrevandijk]

Hi Milly, can you make an updated version of this video, with the new pigments you received from Karla Cosmetics? Thanks!

[@MAubrey69]

OMG I had never heard anyone else talk about Pariah House!! So excited for her!!

[@virginiamiller765]

Omg I just got my opal multi chrome eyeshadow from Kara in sleeping head and it is gorgeous thanks to you you have helped me find some of these brands as stated in one of your videos I was telling you I was just getting into them didn’t know they even made till about 5 months ago and that was seeing one of your uploads I am forever grateful to you if you could do a video showing different mattes you could use for the multi chrome base would be wonderful I know you did one explaining black base and then like green / teal but would love to see others and learn ok thankyou again ❤️

[@mohiniverma8060]

Thankyou for doing this. I've been waiting for these. You are absolutely AMAZING!!!

[@MsGnor]

Milly, your dedication to these bedazzling shadows is REAL!! Love it!

[@deenajones7747]

The looks are gorgeous! Makes me wanna pull out my terra moons black multichrome and my blends palette!

[@badtothebrow]

Yesss do it!!

[@hotpink000]

Hasn’t even been a month since I followed Millie and I’ve bought minimum 10 shadows from Karla, Clionadh and Terra Moons respectively. BF got me like 💸💸💸

[@dimitraicheli6171]

Love loooove your videos! You helped me A LOT deciding which one to buy! You truly are the Queen of multicromes indeed 👑

[@debbiekeating8902]

Thank you so much, this was so helpful!!

[@badtothebrow]

Im so glad!

[@LifeWithRupy]

I’ve been so curious about Karla but you’re right it’s a lot more expensive. I’ll stick to Clio and Devinah!

[@savanadelanore]

For international orders they're best. I was confused how fast it shipped with no customs problems. And no shipping costs because I ordered more. Terra Moons was fast but I need to pay customs. No problem with that. Karla is the cheapest when I add all that shipping and etc. Just make that right for their good 😊 sorry my English

[@laexe2]

Hi Milly, have you ever tried aloe gel to mix powders (or "revive" the liquid colours)? I think i've seen it's a main ingredient of karla's gels so I wonder if it may work alone...

[@deenajones7747]

So I need pillow fight and dolly!! U save me so much money! I have most all of the dupes you listed for each!

[@badtothebrow]

Nice!!

[@HER-icaneForceProductions]

This is fantastically helpful -- thank you! I've had my eye on those multichromes by Karla Cosmetics, but they pretty much instantly sold @ my go-to source (Camera-Ready Cosmetics) shortly after the announcement went around that they were stocking that brand . I just got a gel multichrome by Danessa Myricks "Laser Beam" and can't wait to try it, especially now that I have a better idea of how these products work. I'll be looking at the other brands you recommend and see if I can downsize the cost, as I'm sure I'll want more. Thanks again!

[@blendofdays]

That pricing is insanity considering brands like Chaos Cosmetics (not chaos makeup) charge $6-8 for a 5gm loose duo/multichrome pigment! 😭

[@badtothebrow]

I have a bunch of the loose pigments I pressed and they’re nice but not THIS nice

[@iibnf]

The only benefit to Karla Cosmetics for me is that they are readily available in Australia, but they are priced up 100% to $40 each, (about $30 US, although $40A in Australia buys about the same as $40 US in USA). So, I did buy one, but tbh, wouldn't bother with anymore. The markup is enormous! I can get Cleonadh much cheaper if I'm prepared to wait. (And wait...)

[@virginiamiller765]

Yes I love all your videos and thankyou for doing a tutorial and explanation of using multi chrome with a matte shadow etc it was very help it was the DM COSMETICS PALETTE

[@richardwright9292]

Thank you for indepth video! I bought Lullaby a while ago and it was definitely under £20. They are very expensive but I think the pigments have extra processing and more finely milled than others. I buy them for the texture and liquid metal shine mostly - they last so well on my extremely hooded textured lids. The duochrome pricing and the mixing gel are pretty ridiculous. There are lots of mediums that work well with these and a fraction of the cost.

[@sapphoboiliel5887]

👍🏻your in depth information is very appreciated-thank you!🙏🥰❤️

[@virginiamiller765]

Can you use the mehron mixing liquid with these eyeshadows and what would be the best way dip brush in mix or tap a little out and mix thankyou sorry for all the questions but as stated new to these ❤️

[@kristentrep5038]

These are super beautiful for sure.. but whoa! They are quite pricey!

[@valeriasanchez5053]

Really useful video, loved it💕💕

[@Littledentist]

Nice job on this video. Super informative. ❤️

[@keishastroud9212]

I love their pigments the way they look... but I can dupe most of these and the cost just isn't there for me... so I'll stick to all my dupes... maybe someday I'll get something but not sure... loved the second look the most that shimmery goodness was stunning

[@tratra1021]

The amount of money you have saved me is insane! 🤣🤣🤣 I made a list YEARS ago and the total was over $300 for about 10 items. I bet if I calculated again it would be even more expensive today. I would rather buy from CC/TMC/DC! Thank you so much for this! Have you tried "venom" from JD Glow? It's SO BEAUTIFUL, SO MAGICAL! I think it's my favorite from all 2021.

[@livgraham257]

Your channel is awesome and I love your content so much!!! You 100% would have a bigger following if you focused your videos on mainstream brands because the quality of your reviews and looks is top notch!! Not complaining at all though because the content you put out is unique and caters to the niche audience that loves indie brands and multichromes. We Stan 👏🏼

[@elderxemo92]

Just getting into playing around with eye makeup again. Might buy some of these cause I'm a sucker for shit like this. 👍

[@NSabah-yu8cu]

Just came across you and your video for the first time as I was searching Karla Cosmetics. None of these brands are available in Australia or even the type of gel product. It’s the first time I’ve seen “shadow potion” type product online at KC website. Your video has just opened up a whole new eyeshadow world for me! Thank you so much for such a comprehensive video! So patient and nicely compared! Now the question is what unique products I get my dad to bring from the uk 🤔😅

[@raycray9404]

Which company would you say is the cheapest but has good reflect?

[@angelag2360]

I actually just placed more first order to Karla cosmetics last week. I ordered that sleepy head w potion, very excited to get it.

[@badtothebrow]

🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@SpookyBoots555]

Was that sleepyhead she used on the pastel eye? Thank you!🙏🏼 oh and how did it work out? Should I pick up the potion?

[@LDaemontus]

I've been lucky as of late that some of these brands (Blend Bunny, Karla) have stockists in Australia but for the most part, what kills purchasing (and supporting) these brands is the abysmal shipment fees. Shipping can equally cost about as much as one of the palettes. However, apart from Glaminatrix, its hard to find indie brands who specialize in the makeup type & quality I desire within Australia. Outside of rare collections as a treat (birthday gifts for myself), unless Karla Cosmetics decides to ship more of their products to stockists, their price point pretty much kills any desire for me to purchase from them and it'd likely kill off potential customers internationally. Again, for me, they're competing with Terra Moons & other USA/Canada/Asia based brands who not only provide similar products but just at way better cost points.

[@annakruu]

What do you know about Karla cosmetics being problematic? Proglitz's Aquamarine is the same as Karla's Sleepy Head, but the latter is claiming they make it uniquely in their lab.

[@theoracleofmakeup8061]

Thank you for the British price conversion. Much appreciated xox

[@virginiamiller765]

Yes thankyou for dpi these if you could do more so I can learn a couple more pairings between mattes the the right multi chrome you are bomb thankyou

[@coradewith]

Hi! You mentioned that the karla shadow potion in lullaby dried out a bit, does that happen quick? 💜

[@badtothebrow]

I think about 6 months I noticed it shrinking in the jar

[@bedriddenbeauty6504]

Black liquid lipstick can be a good base for the gel ones, I like JS's.

[@zibbyzoo4379]

I love this video! These pigments are so beautiful, but I think the shine would make my old-a** lids look VERY wrinkly. LOL. Thank you for this beautiful video! XOXO Heidi

[@badtothebrow]

I don’t think these would, they’re all super fine pigments esp compared to some of the other indie brand shadows I compared them to

[@talibeauty5254]

Just ordered Night Terror Shadow Potion and Snooze Shadow potion 🙈 Edit: should have waited till the end of this video. 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

[@FarlySolomon]

Absolutely Stunningly Beautiful As Always 😊

[@kyeoptawerk93ah]

i'm thinking a bunch of brands and companies across industries have upped their prices because of the pandemic causing logistics issues. shipping has gone up by a lot according to a few artists i follow waiting on things they've had manufactured. i'm surprised you didn't compare that one red-orange-green iridescent shade to red giant. it looks pretty similar from what we saw on camera i think

[@badtothebrow]

I think in person it didn’t. I might have compared it in my iridescent multi comparison video, that feels like ages ago 🙈

[@mrsamcnizzle]

Do you have any videos on recommendations for first purchases from Clionadh? Their restock is coming up soon and I don't know what to get, there is so much to choose from. Love your videos! ❤

[@badtothebrow]

I will be doing a video!

[@tinagardiner4542]

I'd love to see a look with lullaby

[@tedoymisojos]

Omg some of these are outstanding 😱😱😱

[@badtothebrow]

Yes very beautiful! Super smooth

[@Kyto0047]

Have you ever tried the Chaos Dirt brand?

[@badtothebrow]

I havent

[@deenajones7747]

I think I have been so spoiled by this several year flurry of multichromes that it's hard for me to get excited by eyeshadows coming out that have no shift unless it's a palette that is extra special like the by melolops palette. Charging 28 usd for 1 multichrome is ridiculous considering I paid a few dollars more and scored up on that millionaira palette!

[@badtothebrow]

It’s a lotttt. I think it’s more worth it for people in the UK who would otherwise have spend $20-30 in just shipping and fees

[@lisatam3872]

LOL. I think it would be great if you bought some samples from Sheenbow and a lightbulb might turn on about multichromes in general and price. Sheenbow is the number 1 supplier of these types of shades industrial and cosmetic. The other company in the EU is still shut down because of pandemic

[@tinagardiner4542]

I've seen them on Ali Express but its always bulk buy ugh 🙄

[@laurac86]

Even though Karla’s multichromes are pricey they are SOOO beautiful!!!!! Sleepy Head is my absolute favorite multichromes ever I get so many compliments when I wear it

[@jasmineconan4629]

Hello thank you so much for the great content! I wanted to know what would you suggest as a dupe for the makup for ever diamond powder available in europe (inglot or mac too)

[@Angela-rz8bt]

i am from spain and i cant get anything like this unlees karla cosmetics... maybe regular multicromes yes but that first one? thar black with red? imposible...

[@tenshial3371]

I Lively in México and is very complicarte to get to multicromes from the brands you said, recently I got a lot from Karla cosmetics because a local from here have it. Im so sad to see what you said bc i hace spent a lot of money like 350 😢 i dont have it yet but i hope it worth it. I dont have duocrome or multicrome so l only hope it works 😂

[@somethingcleverrrr]

Do you have any other dupes for the blood moon one?

[@SpookyBoots555]

Which chrome was used on the pastel side?

[@virginiamiller765]

The sleepy head multi chrome cost me $30.11 but it’s gorgeous and hadn’t tried anything from them before

[@MAubrey69]

Auroras Wings was named after my grandbaby that passed.

[@badtothebrow]

❤️❤️ Im so sorry for you loss

[@nadinekeating3255]

For *ONE GRAM* of product, it would end up being over $30 (I have to convert to Canadian dollars). Hell could freeze over, thaw, then freeze over again... and I still wouldn't pay that much for *ONE GRAM* of eyeshadow!

[@badtothebrow]

🤣

Have you tried the multichromes from SHEIN?

They’re currently on the way to me

The fix potion they sell is just aloe vera. I hate it it's absolutely terrible, probably the worst fix potion I've ever used tbh. I always use a glitter glue instead because I don't feel the fix potion works enough for them.

[@Erinn1984priscilla]

Ya Karla cosmetics has pretty products buuuut no. I won't buy from them just because of their prices. That's insane pricing. Plus u can find the almost exact same shades from else where, for cheaper. Insane prices🤮
