Natasha Denona Retro Palette! 2 Looks + Swatches and Comparisons!

[@Erin.Kendall]

Although I have those huda palettes, I still would never pass up Natasha’s formula. Can’t wait get mine tomorrow. Grest video, looking forward to 5 looks!

[@t.a.summers]

Really excited to see this. I pre-ordered mine and will get it tomorrow hopefully. Can't wait to play around with it. I want to pair it with Glam and Love to see how it looks. Definitely would be interested in 5 looks vid with this palette.

[@lubazak636]

I have those Huda pallets. Hoping to wait for after Christmas sales to get the Natasha formula. Plan to declutter most of my cheap ( Colourpop, ect, although I did like Limoncello and That’s Taupe and a few others),once you get used to Natasha, Pat McGrath, Viseart, Sydney Grace, I am not putting up with patchy mattes and flaky chunky shimmers.

[@jenniferd5477]

That’s exactly where I’m at as well I’m decluttering my cheaper palettes and keeping the good quality ones that inspire me and I enjoy using

[@mizwonton7736]

It’s really hard to go back once you’ve tried the the brands you’ve mentioned. I feel the same way.

[@zusamy20]

I agree , it just doesn’t compare at all

[@taramama6658]

I gave all my cheaper palettes to my girls really the only ones I have now are ND the formula works great on my 48 year old lids

[@cecilia929]

I agree i have some colourpop but mostly as collection items. My favorite influencer collabs only.

[@benguercho1363]

I personnaly think that the greyish-green in the mini was so innovative and original. It adds depth in such a unique way ! Thats why I was so disappointed when I saw the big retro, no greens, no Grey, no silvers, just mauves. She could have called it The Mauve palette and I would have understood but ...yeah

[@faithscheetz5361]

Hey next pallett is green's and grays

Three of the shades in this palette are from the large ND Lila palette-Hello, Nude Mauve and Amara. They should have given this palette a different name. Can't wait to see in person.

I have watched a lot of your 5 looks 1 pallete videos. I noticed you would only use the Repher brushes so I finally decided to purchase them with your link. So glad I did! I was amazed at how soft they are. They truly make blending so much quicker and easier. I am here to support you and your awesome channel. Yaaay!!

I'd like to see another palette by Natasha with the same variety of formulas that she put into the gold palette. She is still my favorite for that reason ❤️

[@PattyAlonso]

Could not agree more I am obsessed with those glitters!!! Maybe for holiday 🤞🏻🤞🏻

[@FitChickGlows]

Yes, agreed! That palette has such amazing formulas! This palette is true to her original rich and juicy Chroma-Crystals. The Gold palette really resurrected her OG sparkly RICH chromas and rich rich metallics. And her mattes and cream to powders were lovely! A stupendous color story and stupendous OG Natasha formulas!! ✨

[@FitChickGlows]

You may be in luck! The wood fairies are listening. As Natasha hinted on her IG Live (which you can still view as she saved it in a post) that she’s not finished with the Retro and we may be seeing greens at some point in the future. ✨💚🧚‍♂️💚✨😉

In Denona’s video and swatches, this palette looks cooler toned but now it seems a bit more warm and red and not that dusty rose and mauve) maybe depends on the camera setting etc))

[@morganwentworth2041]

I need to see it in real life because I really want a reddish palette, and don’t care for purple tones

[@alyssar2742]

I bought this immediately. This color story works best for me, we have the same color eyes and these colors are everything. I actually was more attracted to this color story versus the new PMG palette. Thanks for your review

[@sereniteretrouvee]

Hi Patty, when I saw the midi retro palette, I immediatly thought of the Huda mauve obsession palette coupled with the Viseart nuance palette.

[@missywardley7867]

I just bought my first ND palette the other day! I’m obsessed! I got the love palette today and this is next along with the bronze palette.

[@deejawhitegrass]

It feels like this is ND’s response to all the rose palettes we’ve been getting from PM.

[@claudiacanales2662]

Yup exactly. This feels reactive and not proactive. Like it’s an aftert thought, copying other palettes just to cash in 🤦🏽‍♀️

[@orangemascara]

I understand but it takes months to produce these, so likely it’s pink pigment is cheap right now and that equals profit

[@yoursoulmate5349]

Thank you for your review! This is my favourite color story, that’s why I already have new nude and naughty nude palletes by huda, I also I have pallete 2 by Natasha which also has similar vibe. I think that’s enough of mauvy palletes for me 😊

[@pdt984]

This palette is so soft and feminine, I really like it. I may pick it up one day on sale but for now I’m going to just use the berry and pink shades already in my collection. Your looks are gorgeous as usual Patty! 🌸

[@betinababbles249]

Love NDs formula and I’m so happy that she’s coming out with the smaller pallets. This one however leans more pink/burgundy and the original photos made it look more like the she’s in parties with more plummy purples. I think I’ll dupe this in my collection. Beautiful looks as always🥰🥰

The Maybelline Nudes Of New York palette has some similar shades with more browns, but the cooler side of the palette does give me Retro palette vibes.

[@claudiacanales2662]

Hey Patty - It looks pretty but I’m not too impressed, was hoping for something more impactful. A lot of those colors look muted. I loved ND Bronze palette, that packs a punch, especially for brown eyes! If you could only buy one palette which would you recommend? This ND Retro palette or CT Pillowtalk palette? I already have the CT Bejewelled Palette and it is FANTASTIC!

[@FitChickGlows]

@@jenniferd5477 The Norvina is brighter and funner YET has the balance of those mauvey, purpley browns and wine colors that calm and balance the palette. The lid shades are stupendous and you get a variety of them. With Norvina’s you can still get very similar looks to what you can get from Natasha with the mauvey looks however you will also get MUCH more variety of looks from Norvina’s than what you can get from Natasha’s AND so much more. I really think you’d be more than happy with Norvina’s. And the formulas in this one are the richest and I feel is the best out of all of the Norvina Pro’s. I still got Natasha’s, lol, and I love Natasha but I still feel overall Norvina will get you farther with variety and options while not sacrificing formula.

Great review Patty! I’m on your boat on the green in mini retro looking like a weird grey on me so I agree with you. But for the green fans, did you see Natasha said in her live that she’s not done with Retro yet and that greens are coming? I’m curious to see what will come next but for now I’ll continue going between not buying this one and wanting to buy this one until I cave (which most likely will happen in two weeks cause I’m not strong) :)

LOVE both of the looks you did with this palette, Patti -- they are beautiful on you, very graceful and feminine while at the same time being quite practical and everyday. I really really love the color story of this Retro palette and if I didn't already have the Glam palette I would most certainly buy this one. I don't wear makeup all that much and feel like the Glam palette has me covered as far as a basic eye look that I can pull off easily, but oh, I am so drawn to this new palette. It seems to me to have a more romantic, feminine feel that the Glam and the color story seems more streamlined --- perhaps it is more monochromatic in that way but still, so very beautiful. Sigh!
