I'm just living vicariously through you sorting these beautiful shadows 🤩

[@elsieANNxo]

I always think if I depotted my shadows and put them together in a way that speaks to me I would get so much more use out of them!

[@brittchristensen5284]

I don’t buy palettes anymore - only if there are enough standout shades for me to depot into my collection - which is rarely the case, as I have so many beautiful singles/depotted singles.

[@kathrynbbeauty]

I was the same way! I depotted all but two of my palettes and it was a great decision for me!

[@mymakeupnonsense]

Same! I plan on eventually depotting them all. Then I have all the power to create color stories!

[@scray00]

I hardly ever buy a full palette anymore. I love handpicking the shades I want to add to my collection, instead of the ones they want to give me. If I never see another brown (light med or dark) I’ll be the happiest person on the planet 😂

[@hermanlane9846]

it works - but the square shadows take some getting use to

[@LizzaLee]

Okay, I had to pause at the beginning to go check out the Coloured Raine magnetic palettes. They were not only half price, they were also BOGO. So I paid $22.50 for two of them. Shipping was expensive, but even paying nearly $11 for shipping, I still feel like I got a good deal.

[@muamelanie]

Excellent deal! Wish I had the money to take advantage of that.

[@stevie-ro5530]

Im in Aus and just had a look it’s $45 shipping to here and still think I’m going to get them. Been tempted for so long

[@raquelfreeman81]

I did the same. I'll be so happy when they arrive. I got tired of waiting for one I ordered from Give me glow

[@hellotrude]

@@stevie-ro5530 I’m in Oz and bought six of them. I’ve outgrown them now and need to get more....but definitely no regrets. Even with shipping, they’re still a great deal 👌

[@stevie-ro5530]

@@hellotrude I follow your account 😊 I’ve been tempted to press some of my pigments and I found you that way. I think I’m going go ahead and get some of these palettes there’s nowhere in Aus that has any this decent so I think with the deal it’s worth it 🤔

[@moida_official]

You have no idea how satisfying this is. I'm watching it prob more than 5 times in a day😂

[@kathrynbbeauty]

I’d love to see you do swatch videos (like the ones for JD Glow and Shine by SD) of brands that you haven’t done yet like Looxi and Terra Moons in the future!

[@Sandra-Renea]

This makes me feel nostalgic for Costal Scents. RIP.

[@itsCaseyWilson_Beauty]

Me too 😢

[@jamiecrucefix4078]

I still use my Coastal scents hot pots to dupe palettes. Balsam is one my favourites.

[@SoulShiner1115]

I just recently got into makeup, so I never used them, but every time someone mentions them I always think how weird the brand name is. It sounds like they would sell wax melts or aromatherapy oils, not makeup.

[@Sk8erGirl2845]

@@SoulShiner1115 They were one of the first brands I ever used and I never thought much about how strange the name was for a makeup company until recently lol.

[@jamiecrucefix4078]

@@SoulShiner1115 Agree but sad news they have closed down. No last minute sale all current orders were refunded.

lauren: this is just gonna be a chill video, enjoy! me, having a mental breakdown because you put squares in the same one as the circles

[@lisat5666]

Funny!

[@samantha6564]

That one I didn't mind. The Juvia's Place/BH palette not being in even rows though... That is why the single shadow life is not for me, but I will still watch any video Lauren makes about single shadows and depotting!

[@miserabelle]

@@samantha6564 yeah I wouldn't be able to do single shadows unless I had a set number of them and knew they were all gonna fit in the palette and there wouldn't be any empty spaces lol

[@estellemondine7712]

I have all of my shadows in magnetic palettes (I depotted absolutely everything I had) and sure inside squares are with circular pans sometimes, but my ten xtra large palettes are perfectly identical, which is oh so soothing compared to having different shapes, sizes and colored packaged palettes from different brands, hehe!!

[@lisat5666]

@@estellemondine7712 what do you do when you travel?

[@adelaidewendel1021]

Idk why but I really thought you owned some shades from Devinah! Their shimmers are super sparkly and shifty so they’d be right up your alley imo

[@jessicaharrison4719]

I second this! Devinah is super hard to get a hold of, but the 3 I own are 3 of my favorites for sure! The most economic and beautiful multichrome shadows ever!

[@michellem1013]

I’ve never been more excited for single shadows 🪴

[@kaymister0]

because of you I have gotten really into single shadows and depotting, and I have bought a decent amount of looxi shadows!

[@shannahsbeauty]

Watching this is like watching a satisfying game of Tetris

[@jessicazajicek1118]

I could watch this all day

[@kyleechristensen2217]

I could've watched this in real time... lol... so satisfying

[@KarrasSim]

I am soooo excited for this one!! I have been having so much fun playing with my singles again, creating my own custom palettes. I forgot how much I loved doing that. You are such a big part of my renewed love for my singles. Gets the creative juices flowing in a way that pre-made palettes haven’t been able to do for me lately. You are the Queen of single shadows!!! Your videos can take me from salty to sweet in no time! Thanks for your amazing content!

[@lysrobinsdaughter6599]

my tip for magnetic palettes that you don't like the design of or that are a bit beat up: I bought a roll of decorative adhesive foil, the kind you can stick on furniture, it works perfectly and you can even put it on the magnet sheet, the pans still stick to it the same. I now have a set of matching white wood grain palettes.

[@biancaprimo4168]

I dont have any single eyeshadows but these videos are so relaxing

[@CJHarro]

Lauren, you’re honestly the single eyeshadow queen of youtube 👸🏽

[@bethrichardson5364]

Love having found someone who depots and organizes their shadows. I organize and reorganize as the collection grows, mostly by color but not always. The new Makeup Geek square pans are in their own pallet . . . because they are square. lol. Actually miss the old MG round pans. Sad to hear about Costal Scents because they were one of the last places to buy single shadows. :-(

[@Samisnotavailable]

I dropped everything to watch this, I'm so excited!! 😄 You've totally inspired me to get into single shadows and depot and all that and now these types of videos are my fav 💜💜💜

[@izzybitsyspider03]

I was just looking up eyeshadow depotting videos because I'm obsessed with looking at singles now 😍 what a coincidence

[@heythereperson1]

Your content is what I have KZbin for ! Honestly this video soothes my soul. I love it. Thank you !

[@lorihubiak5697]

You introduced me to Looxi shadows, I am anxiously awaiting my first (large, opps) order. Would love to see a swatch video of your whole Looxi collection

[@ccharles848]

I still cannot believe how many eyeshadows you have! That’s quite the investment!🥰

[@zjed1409]

This is my favourite video of yours ever - so relaxing and satisfying :) I hope you make another one, one day!

[@neeecole8940]

Color coordination is so satisfying 🙂

[@mairino7799]

It’s great that you love Sydney Grace so much! I am eyeing the Temptalia collab so much, even though I have not seen the finished product yet 😂

[@corinalymburner1121]

I’d love to hear what discipline/routines you employ to rotate thru the use of both your pre-made palettes & singles... assuming you do!

All hail the single shadow queen 👑

[@ems_h.eartnotes]

Watching for a second time because so therapeutic

[@annaramirez3067]

Omg, is that the Give me Glow empty palettes?!? I'm waiting on an order to come in with 2 of their empty palettes and a few shadow singles. Can't wait to depot some more palettes so I can declutter a bit! Your posts have been very motivating!!! ❤️

[@CrystalLynnBeauty]

Ugh I need to do this. My singles palettes won't fit in their drawer anymore! And there's so much more coming! I just ordered a bunch of Enchanted Lustre I'm so excited!

[@dbcakes]

enchanted lustre?!? sounds delicious 😋... tell me more!! 😬😁

[@countrycoverangel]

Mine is supposed to come in by the 17th. They are so pretty. I ordered Dragon Prism 1 and 2.

[@faith1533]

I needed a singles video in my life!!

[@susannemulholland4804]

I love shadows to be kept as singles. Currently mine are done by colour. 🙊 It really makes me aware how many similar colours I have.

[@chrissied4902]

I LOVE these videos so much!!! You do such a phenomenal job showcasing your shadows. 💕

[@ashleyhanely1753]

I love that you love single shadows

[@callioscope]

Okay, so this is fascinating to watch. I just put a few depotted small palettes into two larger ones. Not knowing how to do it, I organized by color, tone and finish-all in gradient-never considering which shadows were from which brand. Obviously, I was dealing with not even as many shadows as fits into one of the CR large palettes-and I am also not a KZbinr-but it seemed odd to me that you separate by brand. If I’m looking for a light gray, I want them to be in one palette, not six. If you were just a regular person, would you still organize by brand? Also, in a perfect world, shadows would all be square and of the same size so you could just create gorgeous mosaics of color.

Whattt!! I didn’t even know coastal scents is gone, their hot pots were soooo good

[@lusianamartinez4513]

This is the video I needed, THANK YOU I’m watching all the ads 🧡

[@carlytal8792]

Hey Lauren, just started watching your channel and it’s soothing my anxiety with all the organizing! Do you show how to de-pot shadows from different types of palettes? I tried before and destroyed the shadows in the process!

[@nataliemayo5410]

She has a few videos depotting shadows from lot of different palettes on her channel!

[@jessicaharrison4719]

When I depot a palette, I often start with shades I am indifferent about keeping. That way, if I break those while getting the hang of the depotting process for that palette, I'm not that upset about it.

[@bobbiobanion7706]

@@jessicaharrison4719 I started the same way, until I got the hang of it. For original commenter just try to break it down as much as you can and don't be in a hurry. Maybe get a pipet or something and use alcohol in between the layers to help make them easier to remove. Good luck!

[@robingoblin]

This video is a magic formula (like, color + organization = calm) that banishes anxiety. Phew, I appreciated that this morning! 😜

[@rebecca072498]

I don't think I would ever repot my shadows, but I love watching you play with all of your singles!

[@FacesByGina]

One of the best decisions I made was learning how to take the mirror out of my Coloured Raine palettes. They're SO CHONKY otherwise, and imo there's really not a reason to have a mirror in there. I recovered mine in faux leather and took the mirror out and they're perfect! I got two on the BOGO (+50% off) they recently had, and that brings my total to 12. Haha

[@BelleStreetBoyz]

This was so relaxing! Exactly what I needed at the end of the day. Thank you so much for sharing, Lauren! 💜💙💚

[@sarahkirkpatrickvogt]

Lauren! I LOVE your single shadow videos. I've always been into organizing things by color and the idea of getting singles in a visual happy zen order to use them more is totally what I need to do. You inspired me to look up those Anastasia glitter magnetic palettes AND the Coloured Raine 96 pan monsters (amazing deals on both right now!), and I'm so beyond grateful that I found your channel. You give this tired special needs mama a mental break and some color therapy, so thank you! 💕

[@raquelfreeman81]

I just saw a single shadow that u did a year ago. It amazing to see how much your collection grew. U inspired me to depot some of my palette shadows. It helped me get excited for what I have and to really see what colors I have in my collection....now I'm not so tempted to constantly buy more palettes

[@AllTheHappySquirrels]

Had to go snatch up some of those Coloured Raine empty palettes. And a few single shadows. Thanks for the sharing!

[@heatherb6898]

This is so satisfying, wow.

[@amandalewis9224]

This is so calming to watch on a particularly bad anxiety day, I'm so glad to have found your channel. It inspires me to use my makeup more and stop buying as much.

[@raquelfreeman81]

Glad this came up. I just ordered 2 big palettes from coloured rain. I had a huge order waiting for the give me glow ones. They keep claiming it will ship, but has been sitting in pre-shipment for over a week. Long story short, I'm upset cause I needed it, so I'm so glad that colouredraine has them for a decent price too

[@jodij6280]

I just picked up the 2-for-1 palettes. Thanks for the head's up.

This was so freaking satisfying to watch. Your collection is just stunning! 💜🌿🦋🌱🐝💜

[@jessep270]

After watching this video, I finally grew the balls to take apart my CP Bare Necessities and Stone Cold Fox palettes. I love a handful of shades from each palette for an everyday look, so I took them out to form one palette. It’s crazy because I’ve been into makeup for over 10yrs now and these are the first ‘major’ palettes I’ve ever depotted lol. For some reason, I always felt the need to keep products in its original packaging since it’s part of the novelty of makeup releases. But I think I’ve gotten to the age where I care more about functionality (if I’ll actually use it) rather than hype or packaging of a product.... but lowkey, the upcoming MAC Botanic Panic collection is telling me otherwise😍🥴😂

[@thebetsy]

Your de-potting videos inspired me to de-pot my Deck of Scarlet palettes. I loved them but I didn’t use them a lot because the three pan color stories didn’t fit how I do my make up so adding them all to one big magnetic palette will hopefully have me reaching for them more often. Thank you!!

[@dbcakes]

literally JUST got the notification, but you posted 56 mins. ago?!? 😫😫😫 c'mon KZbin!!! you have one job!! 🤣😬😬🥰😍💗❤️

[@danav1656]

I looove Terra Moon shadows so much. I'm surprised that in your entire shadow collection you don't have any from Give Me Glow. I feel like they'd be right up your alley and their pan sizes are the same as JD Glow. Also, I think it'd be cool to see a video where you create a look (or a few lol) with your 'big pans' palette!

[@katiescott3354]

Your upload time is so perfect for me. 12am here, bedtime 😍

[@LePezzy66]

Cant wait for you to dupe palettes with this!

You really inspired me to invest more in single shadows / depotting than buying new palettes and i totally enjoy it!!

[@mikalareads]

I seen this thumbnail and got the biggest smile ever, so excited for all your singles/depotting vids!

[@Deafkid97]

You should do a challenge where you take your biggest magnetic palette & act as though you’re only allowed to keep shadows that fill that palette! I’d love to see a cutthroat look at what brands / colors are ACTUALLY your preferences

[@nenumsroomofmakeup]

Lauren this was a cool video to share, now I’m motivated to play and get my single shadows in order also I have to get me some of those empty palette from colouredrain too I need them

[@hellotrude]

I have around 1000 single eyeshadows and while I mostly use mega palettes - organising them is a constant struggle. Do I arrange by colour? Brand? Type? Pan shape and size? I can never settle on one arrangement. Ugh! The struggle is real! 😝😂 These days I keep all my Clionadh and my multichromes together - my Glamshop together - and then everything else by colour. Every 2-4 weeks, I sit an pull out 30 or so new shades and just focus on those. Then I rotate them out and bring a new rotation in. That way, I’m using most of my collection and I fall in love with shades and brands all over again. 😊😍

[@Quit3Cut3]

I have a similar way of organizing, I have around 400 singles. I have a palette strictly for clionadh, an all iridescent palette, and a palette for all of my jd glow shadows because they’re so big, everything else is organized by color, also sub categorized by mattes and shimmers. I too do monthly palettes to rotate my collection.

[@ChristalGill]

Wow! You have such beautiful colors of shadows! If your getting rid of the smaller holders & shadows your getting rid of, I'll take one! 😄 Yes, I like how your arranged the colors! Beautiful and easy to see all of the colors! How do you depot them without messing them up? TFS - Hugs, Christal

[@shannahsbeauty]

@@jennifermelloy3944 I think they hold around 60 of the give me glow shadows but I have the power coloured raine pallet and one of the give me glow ones, give me glow is about 1.5 times the size of the coloured raine one

[@kristentrep5038]

Sydney Grace always has their Christmas in July sale! I have a couple of the xxl Give me Glow empty palettes, along with some Adept, Amazon and magnetic palettes from shop MissA. I think I need to re-organize my singles now!! I have mine by brand too, but my Devinah, Terramoons, SG, and JdGlow all have too many to fit in just 1. I’m so inspired to do a do over! I have mine organized by collection as of now.., but I want them color coordinated now too! They look so beautiful this way instead!

What peaceful music while you organize I fuck with it lol

[@lanzelet7386]

Perfect video to watch while I clean off my depotted jeffree star shadows

[@catherineginn3232]

I have two medium-sized magnetic palettes for single shadow storage and a single nine pan one where I put together looks for the day/week. I often take out some of the shadows from my premade Colourpop palettes and it feels so freeing to be able to do that (and relaxing since my counter top doesn’t get cluttered with multiple palettes and I don’t have to remember what specific shadow(s) in those palettes I want to use). If Colourpop ever switched to gluing in their shadows instead of magnetizing them I’m going to be very sad.

Honestly singles & depotted palettes are dangerous!! Once you have some you can’t stop ! Even after decluttering 😂 , I did declutter my palettes & singles I think 4 or 6 timed & I’m always adding new palettes or singles! Like 2020 made me realize I actually have a lot & I love what I have , and suddenly last month I went to terramoon website to have a look at what possibly I could buy ! 😬 also now thinking of some lethal ,MUG & Sydney grace singles to add to my collection & depotting my magic palette by Juvia’s place! So that I don’t buy a repeated shade ! And also I feel GUILTY decluttering it 👌🏾🥺✨ it’s too pretty to pass on ! I literally need to make a decision rn 😂 what I’ll do with my collection & where I’m gonna store the new additions ! Speaking of additions; I’m in the middle of building my blush palette ( which is basically depotting single blushes into a magnetic palette ! ) and that’s alone needs a strategy lol 😂

[@rachelcaudill188]
