@saltbending9701 Год назад

personally i think kaleidos has been leaning more and more into east asian/douyin/chinese makeup trends lately, where colorful eyeshadow isn't used as much and pale/almost porcelain blush is all the rage. which is sad tbh taking into account how good their formulas are and the way they could expand their shade range to make it as inclusive as possible, yet they only seem to be taking steps BACKWARDS in that regard

@AngelicaNyqvist Год назад

@flutemusic88 Год назад

This is exactly what I came here to say. This collection, while disappointing and confusing to us, is probably going to be MASSIVE in Asian markets. At least with the purple collection, they had one more muted one and one colorful, saturated one. And…why purple? Three neutral quads, (brown, grey/black, and taupe) two muted purple quads, (one more warm, one more cool) and a saturated purple. There are plenty of other colors….even muted, “neutral” colors. And the blushes….ugh! Ok, so release the super pale ones, that’s fine, but then how about a light, medium, and dark in similar tones? Not a super pale and a light…. This is actually sad. It feels like Western markets are being cut out. And even though the Asian style seems to accept and even celebrate not being inclusive, there are plenty of Asian people with deeper skin tones who are constantly getting excluded, and now this collection does so as well….

@realtalk13 Год назад

yeah this is what I was going to say. Especially since Kaleidos is based in China, I feel like they might be pivoting to focusing on their local consumer base given just how expensive international shipping has become. This collection is in-line with other jbeauty and kbeauty brands like etude house and 3CE, especially with the focus on mauves/purples/taupes, which is always on trend in that region. A shame since their formula is so nice across their powder products, but it would also explain why they haven't released any of their colorful 5 pan palettes in a while and their last two were.....taupes/purples and peachy/brown/pink neutrals lolol

@girlwhomustnotbenamed4139 Год назад

Honestly, while at first I was slightly disappointed, for us very fair, cool-toned girlies, these are our neutrals and they are so difficult to find normally. Even by hunting these shades down, I can usually only get a simple, everyday eyelook that fits my undertone by combining 2 or 3 palettes. E.g. Cold Brew was too warm for me and the last collection overall a bit too dark (although both were leagues better than what is already on the market), so these two new quads are just perfect. It's gotten so normalised that neutrals are by default warm-toned, even in so-called “cool-toned” palettes (don’t even get me started on that gaslighting). I get the disappointment, especially if people were expecting something colourful, but I don’t think that a brand releasing two cool-toned neutral collections with a similar vibe warrants the collective meltdown like it’s so redundant. It just means that cool-toned people might also get a semblance of choice in their neutrals, which is both good and currently non-existent.

@rpwp-joonie Год назад

I love this take! Sure a lot of people also moan and groan over 'yet another warm toned neutral palette' but it's pretty much just shrug and move on. But cool toned people don't have that, as you say, semblance of choice. Cool toned neutrals are still pretty few and far in between, though it's better now than before. As a cool toned girlie myself I love how we're getting so many cool toned neutrals now, even if they all look similar, because the market is incredibly oversaturated with warm toned neutrals that still turn out to be a 'staple' for one person or another. We def need more of that in cool tones too!

@Momo-oz4ek Год назад

I agree! The blushes are a big disappointment & step back from inclusivity, but I find the cool muted tones in Kaleidos' quads are all pretty unique

@DanielleNicoleMakeup Год назад

I 100% agree with everything you said. And most collections are geared towards warm tones so I am stoked. And those blushes will be perfect for very pale skin or even contour shades which for blushes is pretty rare to find something not too dark ❤

Hey Angie. I totally get where you’re coming from will a whole collection being unusable for many skin colors, but I am someone EXTREMELY fair and struggle having makeup matches. Which includes blushes. I can almost never wear blushes especially colors like they have previously released by kaleidos. Almost no make up brands make anything like this. You see many brands specifically catered for darker skin tones but never pale. I’m really excited for this collection and I’ll let you know how the colors turn out for me/if they are different. That being said I do thing the collection as a whole was not thought out well. They could/should have come out with four pale AND four deep shades to cater to everyone, I definitely agree.

@sj6546 Год назад

As someone who is pale and doesn’t wear brights or a lot of color, the eye palettes are my style. The undertones on the quads are different enough for someone who wears neutrals. The blushes are a different story. Only the palest can wear them.

@teganmacgregor6492 Год назад

As someone with fair skin, it looks like those blushes could work on me...but they didn't *need* to be so light, deeper blushes still work with buildable formulas and a light handed application. I miss the colourful palettes from Kaleidos! It's so sad that flower punk hasn't been restocked and the futurism palettes are discontinued.

no, i don't think i see it. kaleidos already has a selection of colourful blushes on offer. these 4 will suit goths, gingers and other people with a very pale aesthetic and extend the range. the same with the quads. they have warm leaning neutrals and now they've extended the range to cool tones. they odn't look similar to me at all. so people have the choice to go either way, depending on their undertones. makes sense to me. i don't think (self)tanning is terribly popular in asia, even though it is in the u.s.

I'm also white and I have a pale pink blush that looks lighter than my skin tone and it is one of my favorite blushes. I was hoping that you would try one of the pink ones just to see, because even if it looks lighter in the pan, sometimes it shows up anyway. I use the one I have way more than I ever thought I would (it's from Korean brand Skinfood) because I don't always want to "look" like I'm wearing blush. I know that being able to see your blush is really popular right now and especially if you're going on camera but in real life a pale pink blush can look so beautiful and natural!

@joexulaje Год назад

These blushes are made to be used as a matte highlighters! Face contouring in chinese makeup style is huge, so they are not meant for the cheeks, but more so to sculpt the face alongside other deeper shades of blush or contour. I think it would've been a good idea for them to include like a pamphlet or infographic as to how these are meant to be used particularly for their international audience since they're often not familiar with these techniques

@karentozzi4599 Год назад

yes, now that i have heard this it makes sense, but then i think they ought to not call them blushers. and to do more education as to how they are used. i also think it would be been so lovely for them to combine that education with some deeper muted tones so that more people with different skin could try out that trend! still love kaleidos, am sure they will course correct.

@julias5980 Год назад

I get that they're going for the domestic/douyin market, but as a brand with a global presence, Kaleidos missed the mark here. ETA: I do think they did a better job with the quads in this launch in that they do have actual color stories, not just three depths of the same color plus a shimmer like last year.

@magicxspace5406 Год назад

On one hand I do understand why are lot of people upset about this collection but from reading lots of the comment they are getting so much hate it makes me kinda sad because what I can see is that someone finally made colours that were all missing on the market. It was probably not a good move to do it all in one launch and not include darker skin tones on all 4 blushes but so far I've never seen a brand give us any of these shades. Usually I have issues to find one cooltoned lighter shade in most of the makeup released even when there is 10 shades of anything, at least 8 are warm and from the 2 cool its the same colours all the time. I definitely don't want and can't speak for the darker skin toned people because I know the situation only as a by stander but what I heard and saw from influencers and youtubers I felt that in recent years so many brands have been great with delivering inclusive shade ranges in all the product types from foundations to eyeshadows while I actually have seen very little of anything that would be suitable for fair cool undertones. There is always something light but most of the time its just warm-yellow-orange leaning so it looks like there is a range but in reality if you are fair cool, good luck with finding a foundation for example. For that reason I'm willing to give them a pass as long as they will be more inclusive next time. They were really great with the contour palettes and the rest of the existing blushes so I don't think they deserve that much public hate I've seen online for 4 blush shades that we actually can't get anywhere else. Yes, would have been better if they split them and released just two of them now and have some darker ones and the other two next time or just add few other shades, ...Maybe they are trying to sell it more as a whole collection as it works better for their main customer base? Maybe the darker shades didn't sell last time as well as the light ones so they are trying to pull themselves up to be more profitable? I felt like they were quiet for so long that I was starting to get scared that they will be another brand on the line for bancruptcy. I don't know what's going on behind the scenes, but I hope this collection will be successful so they can give us more colourful things next time as if not, I will also join the unsatisfied crowd. But for now, I'm grateful that they gave us these tones that I was trying to find for years and hopefully the next launch will be again all inclusive

@girlwhomustnotbenamed4139 Год назад

Yes to all of this! I've almost completely checked out of the complexion product market, which is even worse for ppl with a cool undertone than the eyeshadows. And I so agree with you that the most problematic are the lighter shades, be it shimmer or matte eyeshadow, or foundation, contour or blush, 90% of the time they are warm toned and the rest is always the same. I get that for a lot of people these shades and tones are not interesting but they are actually unique, not only individually but especially as full palettes and an entire collection. With some deeper blushes (which they should indeed have included) this collection would've been perfect but it still fills a huge gap on the market as is.

@Cascadeis Год назад

Same thoughts here. Yes, it’s a disappointing collection but it does include some pretty unique shades that I think would actually work for fair skin. (It’s weird how difficult it is to find truly fair complexion products, unless the Asian market is available to you. Not as difficult as it is for dark skin tones, but still extremely difficult.)

I don't mind the quads because the undertones are actually different and they do feat really well cool toned people like me (I actually think they somewhat complement the last collection). The blushes are definitely for people that are really pale and that use even whiter foundation (Asian markets have that habit, unfortunately). They could do half half in that colour selection for sure, let's just hope they learn their lesson with this one. But one bad colour selection in the latest blush collection doesn't erase how great they are at the rest. I will be keeping an eye on them for sure.

@IrynaPavlienova Год назад

Is there any chance they will bring Club Nebula back? 😢 I opened Kaleidos to myself when this pallette was sold out long before

@kmes8989 Год назад

Agree with you; they need additional designers at their table. As well, the glosses are very similar on camera; don't know about in-person.

I feel like this blushes tone is suitable for korean makeup trends where the focus is on personal color. They usually use them as a base for another blush making overall looks airblush. And they're pale skin friendly because I find it difficult to find a soft blush shade T T. Also the eyeshadow look like a true cool tone on my skin. This collection is a holy grails for me❤

@kam0406 Год назад

I’d love for kaleidose to release an eyeshadow palette- but have it be every shade of their space themed highlighter collection! They could maybe keep the colors the same, but maybe make some of the shades opaque. This would be my dream palette. It could also have some matte shades in it too… A gal can dream!

@tiffy3260 Год назад

Love that you put the swatches on the side too, instead of forcing us to find it on another platform ☺️

@rabbiroz3806 Год назад

I think Kaleidos lost the plot too. Those blushes take no makeup makeup to a whole new level! The eye shadow quads are too similar to the last release as well. The most exciting thing in this launch are the new lip glosses!

@rabbiroz3806 Год назад

Which is the “darkest” pink blush that you wore?

@laney7929 Год назад

There are so many duds in this collection if you are deeper than a piece of parchment paper. What a bummer 😬 but thanks for the awesome video!

@briannamercedes4016 Год назад

I was really excited when I saw the sneak peeks for the launch, I was expecting rosy pinky blush tones, which may have been done a lot before but at least would be different from Kaleidos (and something I actually don't have surprisingly), but no we were giving what feels like a desaturated version of their last collection :/ I will keep enjoying my Glowing Iris palette for now lol.

@DaHausofBoo Год назад

Two-hands up agree! The eyeshadow palettes are so similar to their previous ones. The new blush shades are too light. I was hoping they’re going to add more exciting shades to their blush collection. I recently (like just last week b4 this new collection was announced) bought a few blushes and secretly glad that I didn’t miss out much from this new launch. 😊

@livialynnlynn Год назад

When you held up all four quads i couldn't tell which were from this collection I really enjoy their formulas i just wish they hadn't fully ditched their original point of view.

@maiyorha Год назад

i started loving kaleidos thanks to you, i have your collab palette and the lavender one by them. kaleidos is just one of those super super few brands that speak to me when it comes to colourful eyeshadow palettes, i am really picky (bc i can't spend that much on makeup), seeing another batch of neutrals is a lil boring too, and i completely agree on the blushes, like it's so cool to see options for really really pale people, but they should try and create products for EVERYONE. i hope next time, they'll include super deep ones too

@eibs10 Год назад

Also! I love you with cooler tones, especially purples!!!

@Raithization Год назад

Honestly I see why people are complaining, and I agree with them, especially about the shade range, but I really like that Venus quad. And that angel wings blush, I might look into getting that for a setting powder for my oily eyelids.

@joannab.6282 Год назад

those are exactly what i ordered. so stunning.

@WayTooEleni Год назад

I love the shot where you hold up all four eyeshadow quads. It was literally the "corporate wants you to find the differences between these pictures" but they're the SAME!!!

@MOJOtheDUCK Год назад

I’ve been waiting to hear you go in boot these blushes!

@AndreeaC. Год назад

I'm interested in what actually happened with Kaleidos! There must be a reason they took this path , unfortunately 😔! Is not just they have repetitive launches but these are the only launches they do lately 😢

@savannahkallan Год назад

i feel like we haven’t seen a lot from kaleidos lately

@cinderellie9583 Год назад

You took basic and lit it on fire with this collection. So hot! Honestly the box was my favorite item

@kouzelnice Год назад

Angie, that eye makeup looks amazing on you! Very elegant❤ ❤ Personally, I am super excited about this collection, and I am not sure Kaleidos are just focusing on the Asian market... maybe yes maybe not... but it seems like many of the Western luxury brands have been launching warm-toned palettes forever, with very few cool-toned ones (I have ND and PMG in mind, and I know there is more variety with indie brands) and when you read the comments on social media, the customers keep asking for cool tones, purples and greens, something fun but also work friendly. Maybe that's why Oden's Eye has been so well received? I can see the similarities in terms of color story with Kaleidos' last collection, but for me, that was more of a neutral brown (coffee look) or a bright party collection (the blue lilacs and silvers), and all the blushes were pretty bright. So I don't mind them doing more subtle taupes and pink purples. Maybe they are just ahead of a trend? ❤

@girlwhomustnotbenamed4139 Год назад

Yes! Or me being an optimist I might even think they realise that people with fair skin and a cool undertone are not a trend but exist and need their own neutrals every day. 😊

@rockabillymuffin Год назад

I miss their big Palettes. The mattes of the last quads are so patchy its so sad :( The Club Nebula palette is still one of my faves. I do love their multichrome highlighters and multichrome pencils. But everything else has just lost the creativeness in colorstory and packaging. :( Also I miss their old eyeshadow formula.

@isabelab6851 Год назад

I totally get this collection. The eyeshadow looks beautiful on you, I love the look. I love watching your colorful looks but realistically, I do not wear them most of the time. For work, I tend to wear neutral with a pop of color. So these would be my go to for work shadows. I also think that is the Asian perspective. The blushes for me are perfect…but I prefer the wash of color, especially the more brown leaning. Many of my Chanel blushes look very much like that. I think that this is not your aesthetic (love your looks 😎) so I agree it did not make sense to send it to you. As to my “boring” neutral shades, I will always look to my luxury brands. I look to Indy brands for the unusual shades that re beautiful (although I admit 5o admire them more than wear them very often).

@Babymuexlue Год назад

Thankyou so much for your honesty on this collection. I to am very disappointed with what they thought was okay to release.

@timeladyshayde Год назад

When I first saw the pictures of the blushes I was excited, because as a fair olive I need something that is more cool and desaturated. But the more swatches I’ve seen the more I think they’re going to be too pale even for me.

@Kate-jk6pf Год назад

I'm happy thier glosses are making a come back. I understand adding lighter blush shades but thought we might be getting a shimmering blush based on one of the shade names. Those eye pallets are not it. I like the quads (neutrals with a twist and colorful) and if they wanted to stay on that path there were so many other options. Olive green, Mauve, warm brown, Pink would have alll been better than repeats.

@igapawlak9273 Год назад

I don't understand the hate towards the blushes. Not every collection or even brand has to cater to everyone. It definitely was a problem in the past but currently there are so many brands and products to choose from. If I see a collection that is not for my complexion, I skip and carry on. I don't see so much hate towards the newest Fenty stick which doesn't cater to Fair/Light complexions. I swatched first 3 shades at Sephora and it was laughable. Or even Make up by Mario's foundation shades are very limited for Fair. Why people always choose to hate on smaller indie brands?

@eimearinez Год назад

Thought same on the gloss shape though was just me lol

@monimonie7895 Год назад

Well I will be the odd one out and say that I am glad that this is a launch where I, as a super pale person can use every single one of and not be afraid to put my brush in because it will quickly be too much. Their last blush launch had more vibrant colours and I, personally, didnt like a single one of them cause they are too punchy of colours for me. This launch I love. Yes I am paler than you :)

@maryannfuller9707 Год назад

Blushes remind me of a topper for blush, or oversize eyeshadows.

@sleepyheadsarah Год назад

If I'm considering this collection in a vacuum, I'm actually kinda interested in those blushes.

@ashleymaxwell4933 Год назад

I'm glad you said what I was thinking, even about the gloss packaging. I'm very fair, and I don't think those blushes will work for many people. I miss the colorful collections. I can't get excited about this. It's disappointing.

@estellerose9900 Год назад

I really like this collection, although I don't think it's geared for the US indie market at all

@LH-ci1bn Год назад

The packaging is truly the most interesting thing about the collection.

@meghantaylor9471 Год назад

Thank you for being so honest about your disappointment. I really hope they listen and improve their colour range and variety ❤

@scoobert0 Год назад

I think you did an amazing look with what was in the collection. I am definitely sad that they've stepped away from the colorful stuff. Fingers crossed they return to it soon!

@TheRileymckee Год назад

I hear what you're saying with the.blush colors, I think maybe they were trying to round out their range because the rest of their blushes are very bright and go pretty dark so maybe they just thought their range needed more light shades. Just what I thought when I saw the colors but I could be wrong 🤷‍♀️

@AngelicaNyqvist Год назад

their blushes are not very dark though, I own all of them and they all work for me, but I am white. I'd say only one of their blushes would show up on a darker skin tone :)

@andreamarksberry345 Год назад

Yeah…I’ve been waiting to see someone try those blushes!😂

@kayla4702 Год назад

I appreciate you being honest about your disappointment in the brand for these blush shades, I too am disappointed and think they should have done better. But yes, they definitely could have just launched those glosses and been fine because they do look nice. Thank you for sharing.

@catherinelynnfraser2001 Год назад

Love the packaging and love the glosses. I think an eyeshadow palette would be great for travel. Especially if you wanted a glam look. I guess if you wanted a matte highlighter the blush might work but it’s way too light for most complexions. You look beautiful and very glamorous.

@nydia7566 Год назад

About the blushes; Is not akward. Dont feel stressed for liking a product that fits you. Its ok if you like it, i love how looks on you, Its a very beautifull blush for you. That been said, i agree with the lack of inclusion of this colection (is a shame for a brand that pretends to be international) but who’s surprise? the makeup marketing is beginning to focus on the asian trends and cultures. Its ok.

@ivyzen8860 Год назад

I'm fine with the blushes (they've had plenty of colorful shades in the past so it makes sense they'd do something paler) but the eyeshadow colors are way too repetitive. I do like the glosses (though I don't need them), I just wish they'd paired them with blue or green quads.

@monicabellmakeup Год назад

I find it really odd that Kaleidos released these four blushes when actually, even in their initial blush release, there was only ONE that would work on dark skin -- that deep red one. It reminds me of the early 1990s before Mac became popular, back when the only blush shade you could find for dark skin was red 🥴 Also--given your relationship with Kaleidos, it might have been easier not to critique them too much on this. Thanks for your honesty!

@SaplingTarot Год назад

The design on the newer kaleidos releases look so much like a uterus to me and I cannot unsee it, and now on kinda fleshy coloured products? Wow.

@yoshih.8910 Год назад

You know I like your make up today very very much. ❤

@elisaacri8774 Год назад

I saw their release on Instagram the other day and had to double check the post as I thought they were their past releases..totally agree with the very muted blush shades too. Also it wud be great if they had a european retailer as having to pay for shipping and taxes makes it harsh for us across the pond..

@desiraebeitzel1234 Год назад

I really love their blush formula, and was excited to see new shades were finally coming. Then we get this. I was planning on buying them all. Now maybe, just the one darkest shade, maybe. Upside: saving the hit on my credit card.

@shysnow8 Год назад

I think the collection looks very pretty and could be very good for pale skin or cool toned people, that being said I do wish it was more diverse so it could fit of a more wide range of people.

@deverauxe90 Год назад

Exactly my first thaughts about this collection. I am with the glosses, i will for sure buy some glosses, four of them charmed my eyes. And i like this Mirror. The Rest is not really spectacular and i expected more, to be really honest. thx for your first impression. I'm so glad, that im not the only one, who think so about it. ^^

@kam0406 Год назад

I might be in the minority here but I think this collection is beautiful and on trend. Over the top color seems a little dated at this point. A more muted, lighter look fits with the understated “old money” look that is all over these days. While the blush looked light in the pan, I could definitely see it showed up on your face. I feel that this collection is ahead of its time here in the west and I hope to see more collections like this. It is nice to have some light, basic colored eyeshadows to sculpt the eye to give an effortless look. Kaleidos quality is definitely there! I am considering at least 2 of the blushes and possibly 2 of the eye shadow palettes from this collection. I do think this could work beautifully on women with deeper skin tones- especially those who have cool undertones. Women who have deeper skin tones might find this collection pops against their skin. I could see the pink blush working well in the top of the cheeks to give a nice ethereal effect on deep, cool toned skin. I feel this is a modern collection and a twist on basic neutrals. I totally understand where the brand was going with this and I am here for it!

@thxwanderer Год назад

Sadly, It really depends on the persons skin tone, but most of the blushes besides maybe one would make someone deep/dark look ashy. And the quads would run the same way unless you purposely use a light/white base, even if the person has a cooler undertone. I'd be interested to see someone of my complexion try it out but I think it could be a waste of money.

@joyontheleft Год назад

that pink is going to look like pepto bismol on anyone darker than Angie. Dusty and crustyyyyyyy

@christinamoller4342 Год назад

Yeah....I'm excited for this collection, but I agree, they could have been more adventurous with the quads. And yes, those blushes are only suitable for paper-white people! 😒 I'm happy they came out with glosses.

@biogirl1381 Год назад

thank you so much for being so transparent and 100 with your review. i would honestly just love to buy one quad, one blush, all of the glosses, and the mirror… but i think the mirror isn’t for sale, but it’s only if you buy the entire collection. 🥰🥰🥰

@tiffany.hamblen Год назад

Beautiful look! I just want the box, mirror, and a few of those glosses!

@jo4vt Год назад

Are they similar? Swatched out they look pretty different. (Eta: Oh, gotcha, they are both neutral collections with a purple palette). I agree about the blush, Angie. Thank you for speaking up about that. 🧡
