NEW Alter Ego Misthaven Palette // Swatches & Comparison

[@celestecelestial90]

The packaging is so pretty! I got the Huda palette for 50% off on Labor Day weekend. Those palettes go on sale pretty often in case anyone wants to buy the Huda one but doesn’t want to pay full price.

[@AlejandraLisette]

Yes they do go on sale often which my pocket likes

Thanks for the video! I didn't want to spend $69 on a palette with a lot of shimmers I wouldn't use much. Like you, my lifestyle doesn't really have occasions where a lot of shininess is appropriate. However, a $24 palette with fewer shiny shimmers is easier to justify to myself. Especially since my birthday is coming up! I appreciated the suggestions of Colourpop palettes with a similar aesthetic.

You are most welcomed

Thanks for saying that we don’t have to use your code. I personally would like to use your codes if I had the chance and it was the biggest discount I could get. But I’m glad you don’t pressure people to use yours. I would use yours because I watch your channel a lot and you have integrity and are cordial with subscribers. I don’t really want to use a certain person’s code because I have seen them snap and get sarcastic multiple times with subscribers when the subscribers didn’t even say anything offensive. It was genuine questions about the product application and quality. I could understand if it was an insult or rude remark because they have the right to defend themselves, but these were not those kinds of comments. I still watch them once in a blue moon but I’m not subscribed. I hesitate to comment anything because I don’t want them to get mad at me and write back in all capps for no reason. 😂

I always encourage a code cause any savings are better than non. To me I’m just happy if you guys save and not push my code. I have it for those that want it but I’m never pushy. I don’t like it done it me so I dont do it. I’m blessed to not have to depend on the code being used as well. I work a normal job (whatever normal means now) so I get it

Hadn’t thought to mix Of Quartz with Troublemaker but makes perfect sense. I usually pull those as “winter” neutrals because that’s when I’m in the mood for cooler toned palettes. In fall and summer I lean into the warmer tones but will give those a try.

[@20thcenturyrelic]

I also usually go with cooler toned shadows in the fall and winter and warmer tones in the spring and summer. It's just a habit that saves me from having to decide what to use. But sometimes I break out of that and wear whatever colors I feel like, or colors that go with what I'm wearing. Also, it's fun getting out my cooler or warmer tones when the season changes. It's almost like having new makeup!

[@AlejandraLisette]

Cooler tones will be coming soon in my room. I love them in the winter as well

Very helpful comparison, thank you so much!

[@AlejandraLisette]

My pleasure!

[@SullyMarie_]

Thank you for this thorough and thoughtful video. It solidify my decision to pick up the huda palette.

[@AlejandraLisette]

Glad it was helpful!

[@italianrose3548]

[@AlejandraLisette]

Aww thank you!!

[@italianrose3548]

[@AlejandraLisette]

Glad it was helpful!😁

[@daniellezadora7637]

Girl. This was so incredibly well thought out and extremely helpful! ❤

[@AlejandraLisette]

Thank you so much!! Glad I could help

I think I might like the Alter Ego version of this particular palette better than the original.

[@20thcenturyrelic]

I think this may be a more wearable palette for many of us.

[@AlejandraLisette]

Yes that’s one thing they do best is to make it a way we all can understand the colorstory more

[@EXOmakemeHorololo]

I wish we could easily get them in the UK. I really don't like Hudas formula and I owned 18 of her palettes at one point... Like a fool kept buying because everyone said it was great and I kept hating it 😂

[@AlejandraLisette]

I fell for the same thing with certain indie brands. Then I went cold turkey and don’t buy any of them anymore 🥴

[@LisaDia14]

While the color story is not for me, I love that people who do enjoy it have an inexpensive option with good quality eyeshadow to fit their budget! And magnetic where you can change the arrangement or swap colors out between pallettes, even better! I agree, use a coupon code to save more money, it is silly not to!

[@AlejandraLisette]

It is nice to have more affordable options out there!

[@EXOmakemeHorololo]

I far prefer their arrangement of shades over Natasha Denona and Huda. Brands mix around the shades to make palettes appear something they are not instead of giving you a helpful layout

[@AlejandraLisette]

I think they do it on purpose to make you think it’s a new colorstory never seen before

[@YogaCheryl]

I prefer the AE layout but its not in the same ballpark as Huda's quality. I love how you can sheer out Huda's mattes and it looks like you hsed more than one shadow. All these other creators saying that AE is as good or even superior are full of BS.

[@AlejandraLisette]

I am honest and let you know. The quality isn’t the same but it can be built up to a point to make them stronger on the eye

[@lavenderamethyst9473]

weight = sand and mirrors

[@AlejandraLisette]

That’s my point. Luxury as well as high end brands charge a lot for a heavy palette and yet alter ego can provide the same for a fraction of the cost. 😁 for my packaging doesn’t make me buy things. I rarely fall for packaging but some do enjoy that.

[@20thcenturyrelic]

@@AlejandraLisette I don't like to feel that I'm paying more for a product for fancy packaging. But, as you pointed out, many do.
