No! You aren’t alone here. I am a big NBC fan, but I felt overwhelmed with the drops. Then after buying both, I couldn’t help but to feel like “Did they do this so we can freak and buy without a second thought??”. Loved your honesty. Subscribed!

@AshleyEllix 9 месяцев назад

It almost feels like their Halloween Town had a delay cuz it’s wild how close both launched…

@jayadora 9 месяцев назад

I grabbed both palettes and the Zero bag. Been a massive collector of Melt for years but they lost me for the last 2 years. THIS brought me back with a vengeance. It's an amazing collection and I have "zero" critiques. The two palettes are a perfect pair. I did not feel rushed. I was ready. I know melt well.

Ashley so happy to see you! I bought the Halloweentown palette, bag and lipsticks. I havent bought anything from this collection yet because i want it all but i dont want to spend the money lmao

@SuperStarr817 9 месяцев назад

I agree about the cream highlighter, I don't mind a sparkly highlight, but I hate when it's speckly and this one is has that spotted speck look. Everything else, I like though.

@amya989 9 месяцев назад

I also had that sour taste in my mouth bc if they had launched it together I would have only chose one purple lipstick and would not have got the gel liner but the glitter pots instead etc. And maybe people bought the first bag but like the second Christmas town bag better.....

@cynthobeauty 9 месяцев назад

I LOVE Zero like OBSESSED❤ I waited on the first launch didn't purchase a thing. I do however HAVE to buy a few things from the newest launch♡

@AshleyEllix 9 месяцев назад

This launch is perfect for you then with all the Zero love 🥰

@xamyx725 9 месяцев назад

My only disappointment with this collection is that they didn’t do more with the gel liners & incorporating Lock Shock & Barrel… Even if they did it as a separate bundle, a trio of gel liners in red, magenta & teal would have been absolutely adorable, and would have tied the 2 palettes together… Besides, I’ve been wanting them to do a red gel liner for ages 😂

My green/yellow glitter pot was also a little chunkier and drier than the blue/purple one. I thought it was just mine and that something was wrong!

Yeah I don’t know either! Worked fine but different. Do your pots appear practically empty?

@kim_2918_ 9 месяцев назад

@@AshleyEllix I’d be curious if you hear back! I tried to look at the comparisons in the amount listed (gel liner vs the glitter pots) but they used different units of measurement so it’s hard to compare…… :/

@pinkTonya24 9 месяцев назад

I have the brushes from the Amor Y Mariposa collection and thise are fantastic but i bought a highlighter brush during a sale last year from their normal line and it is the crappiest cheapest feeling brush that was over $20 at regular price when it felt like a $2 E.l.f. brush.

@amya989 9 месяцев назад

The Halloween town palette is my new favourite melt palette. I could not put it down! My palette did that scratchy thing with the purple but the shadows applied fine. I feel like they apply better when you pack them on and then blend them out. The only disappointment was the red master of fright liner. It was so bad that I asked for a refund. It was thin and patchy

@AshleyEllix 9 месяцев назад

I’m so glad you’re enjoying your palette? I don’t know what’s up with Master of Fright, mine is oily.

@@AshleyEllixmine is also terrible like it did to set appropriately. I sent an email and am hoping to het replacements for the glitter gels that were half filled and my master if fright that is a soft oily mess.

I just got my collection in the mail and it's stunning, but my "Making Christmas" glitter gel pot came almost empty, there was only a tiny dollop of product. Did you or anyone else have that problem?

@mariadelpilarperezflorez9850 9 месяцев назад

I contacted Melt about it and they're sending me another one. Maybe talk to them about it, who knows, they might fix it for the Nov. 1st launch so other people don't have this issue

@jennicabouray4419 9 месяцев назад

I got mine and my Zero makeup bag’s “melt.” zipper tag says “mel” because the “t.” is completely missing. It looks like it broke off before making its way to me (didn’t find the “t.” in the box like it broke during transit to me). Obviously the makeup bag still works fine, but it is a bit disappointing.

@AshleyEllix 9 месяцев назад

Maybe contact their customer service with a picture and see what they say. I’m gonna do that with the glitter gels cuz the more I’ve thought about it the more odd it seems how empty the pots are…

@hopefaithjoy16 9 месяцев назад

Thank you for talking about it feeling icky - they also said it wouldn’t come to Sephora until 11/15, after the Sephora sale - so I purchased on 11/1 and my order was shipped immediately. But THEN, it was released at Sephora on 11/5, during the sale - I could’ve saved like $30+… and that felt like the 3rd icky, money grabby thing for this collection… I love Melt, but this didn’t make me feel stoked about the brand 😢

@AshleyEllix 9 месяцев назад

Omg that is SO icky 😩 I really don’t like that. I’m sorry that happened to you!

@syvannahlopez804 9 месяцев назад

I'm so glad I skipped on the Halloween palette. I really wasn't into the color story AT all and was also skeptical about the formula. Plus I still have the NBC palette from Colourpop which is beautiful. I will say the Christmas town palette looked a lot more visually appealing and with a discount code + free shipping I didn't mind placing a separate order. But I do agree the timing is just strange. I also felt this way with all the new releases from Glamlite. It's all a bit overwhelming and inconvenient.

@pinkTonya24 9 месяцев назад

I have only seen the nightmare before christmas maybe twice in my life and i watched it when i was maybe 11 so almost 30 years ago lmao it creeped me out then and Tim Burton's movies always creep me out so i have no desire to watch it... but i do love melt cosmetics so i have to get this palette. I own almost every palette they have done except for the Electrip palette and the dark natter palette

@AshleyEllix 9 месяцев назад

While I love the color story in this palette just keep in mind the matte formula is way drier than their other palettes…

@liisabjork76 9 месяцев назад

They're a business and they roped many people in and they know what they're doing. They are here to make money in this very dense cosmetic industry. It was just a very good business sales strategy. They are here to cash in on the holidays. Probably their busiest time. As a consumer yeah you may feel shitty but they know you'll be back year after year.

@AshleyEllix 9 месяцев назад

Of course! September launch of Halloween Town would have given me more time to enjoy the collection during spooky season though 🤷🏼‍♀️

@exomake_mehorololo 9 месяцев назад

They know we'll be back ??? Um considering they are actual dozens of indie brands now, most with much better shimmers and cheaper I won't be back. And there's plenty people who don't buy Melt at all anymore because their formulas are outdated... Don't think it was a smart move longer term

@xamyx725 9 месяцев назад

@@exomake_mehorololoMelt has a very dedicated consumer base, and we all know & expect a huge Holiday collection. My guess is that they initially planned to launch these at the same time, but jumped on the unprecedented flurry of “Halloween” collections so many other brands did this year. Gourmande Girls & Ensley Reign released two palettes a couple of weeks apart, and don’t even get me started on Glamlite… At least with Melt Cosmetics, they we’re prepared to get everything shipped in a reasonable amount of time… Glamlite & Ensley Reign both have a turnaround of literally 2 weeks minimum…

@liisabjork76 9 месяцев назад

They actually have the Xmas and Halloween palettes together when they launch. You don't have to get entire collection.

@AshleyEllix 9 месяцев назад

Sorry I should have clarified, I meant just in the presale day last week. I like that they have the different options now!

@exomake_mehorololo 9 месяцев назад

It appears several people assumed the Christmastown would only launch as a set. According to another RU-vidr it was only clarified AFTER that pre launch. Seems a bit shady at least

@exomake_mehorololo 9 месяцев назад

Considering how brands usually launch new collections... To me this whole thing clearly looks like calculation and manipulation on Melts end. They know this is for fans, they know its super popular and they should know money doesn't grow on trees! The way these launched with no one knowing the second was coming they were counting on fomo. You could hear plenty of people saying I'll get it who knows when it comes again. Super shady to me!! And I don't think I'll pay any attention to their future stuff.... Plenty other brands to buy from
