sure but especially in the korean beauty industry, that colour palette is a dime a dozen. The pricing is also really audacious considering theres no thought into the packaging or even the colour scheme. it seems like such a thoughtless cash grab
It will only work for warm and cool toned fair skinned people which if you’re darker than this guy or Somi (as a fair chunk of the SK and global population somi is targeting) it’ll either look ashy or be a really expensive eyeshadow quad. Also for a makeup brand the fact they’re only launching one niche product is a choice. It’s giving white label brand deal
@@SWAMPMONSTER5000 imma be real... i think the silly drawing on the packaging could be chaeyoung's drawing (from twice) ?? Since I'm they're friends so maybe??
The palette is genuinely so gorgeous, like I've rarely ever seen a highlighter palette with fine particles, and this shimmery that I like. And the fact that it's catered for idols too??? like yes I WANT TO LOOK LIKE A STAR TOOO HELLOO?????
Idk why ppl were so pressed abt the pricing. It’s literally on par with most celebrity brands at the moment. It’s not drug store pricing but it’s definitely not luxury brand pricing either. It’s right in the middle. If it’s not in your price range then don’t buy it. That’s all there is to it. The shades are so pretty too. I’m really into pink highlighter at the moment to give me an ethereal moment. So these shades are speaking to me. Good thing I watched your review😮😊
It’s not the same packaging as Dior lmao 💀. Somi’s looks like the exact same makeup packaging I see on temu/shein/amazon which means her markup is insane considering how cheap those components are to make. For a few dollars more people could spend on a brand that actually has global name recognition if that’s what they’re into (Dior) with more shade options vs. falling for the same name hype with a lesser known non established entity with a niche product
@@LP-ct9nk I own the Dior backstage highlighter palette and it’s literally the same packaging. The only visual differences are the logo and slight design choices. What you’re usually paying for with luxury brands is the quality of the formula and sometimes the packaging. Dior’s highlighter (the actual powder itself) is made in Italy, in which makeup products made in Italy are known for their quality. But luxury brands use “cheap packaging” all the time too. I’ve been collecting makeup for many years, so I have everything from elf to Tom Ford. Most makeup products are made in the same factories too bc about 7 conglomerates own all the makeup brands in the world. Of course each company has its own creative directors and strategic marketing but many products are pretty similar to each other. As a general consumer of makeup and collector what I’m looking for in makeup is ingenuity, quality ingredients, good color payoff, cohesive color stories, cute ass/unique packaging, and good times. It’s fun to collect makeup and wear makeup. I think that is what Somi was going for here bc of the drawings on the unicarton and the almost pastel shade selection. It says fun and playful to me. The pricing of Somi’s highlighter is not expensive and it’s not cheap, it’s in the middle. It’s up to the consumer whether they want to purchase it depending on various factors. But from what I’ve seen in this video, the quality is there. The highlighters also look like something I’d like bc the powder seems smooth with small glitter particles. They have an almost duochrome reflective sheen to them. They were reminding me of these highlighters I own from Glamlite and Fenty beauty. As someone who knows all the information I know about makeup, it’s seems like ppl are really just fishing for things to hate on Somi for. She can’t catch a break. Girl is just doing what most smart celebrities have done in their career. I honestly think more thought could’ve gone into the marketing and overall look of the packaging for the products bc I don’t associate it with Somi. It seems like her name was just slapped on it. I mean she’s taken the time to pick out the shades and that has meaning behind it but her personality is not shining through it. But overall there really isn’t any issues with the product like it’s been worked up to be.
Honestly it's just that Kbeauty Brands don't go this expensive I think that's why they expected it to be cheaper. Most beauty products in Korea rarely go beyond 25 but seeing as the parent company is a US brand I kinda understand why they came up with that price.
Jeon, SoMi’s highlighter is all over the place and I am glad and happy that you did a review on it, Edward. The highlighter palette is gorgeous! You look great in all 4 shades, Edward! Thank you, thank you for the review. 👏🏻🎨😄🤩👍🏻👏🏻💕🩷💝
Omg! Thanks Edward for talking abt brushes and how to use the pallet because I've seen a lot of reviews where they don't do justice to some rlly nice products. love u
the bass @11:39... this one is a winner yall aha. that voice came from deep within along with the mmhmms lolz. i have no idea what drama is happening with Jeon Somi's makeup but i appreciate the review. i think with this quality i could definitely see myself playing around with these colors. dude i always love your insight on other details like comparing pricing and such. you a real one. happy editing Eddy 🎞🎉
The review made me want that palette, the way you explain why you like your brushes + the different colours for different purposes is very great to know so thank you for this honest review
the design and artworks are actually made by somi 🥰 the drawing of a girl on the packaging is her first art when she was still a child 🥰 thank you for this review 🫶🏻
I heard about the uproar regarding this launch, but you know I was waiting for Eddy to review it and he came thru. I really like the colors and more into what I like so I might just grab my hand on one if I can. Especially since they are all together in a pallette rather than me fishing for them individually.
Gosh, I just love you and I would love to see more skincare videos!! I know your skincare is really basic, but literally basic skincare, when you dont change much gives the best results... And I could watch it over and over, and you talking during it, aghhhhhhhhhh!!
Hey gurl 💋, are you going to buy the new violet strawberry rococo limited edition that Flower Knows will be releasing this Monday, April 8? I would love a review from youuu 😩🩷
Darlin’, you are GORGEOUS with your natural hair colour! BTW, I was howling while watching the Tik Tok videos…Mr. Man-on-the-Street talking about Korean packages. 😂😂😂 Loved it!!
I actually use several green highlighters! I'm very fair with green undertones. I wouldn't say it looks NATURAL, but it doesn't look odd either. It looks cyborg-y, y2k-y. Should I upload a look?
tbh i think it's a little expensive for what you;re getting compared to other brands, but it's not terrible. it reminds me A LOT of a cult fav of a few yrs ago, the Sleek makeup highlighter
I was a little apprehensive, lookedn cheap but then you did the test at the beginning and I went oooo and then Eddie went oooo and it was basically just ooo ing a long. lol
I think it's a nice pallet because it has shades for warm and cold skin tones, so I think it's perfect. The blue shade is surprisingly beautiful ✨

these look WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY nicer than i thought it would. the packaging (box) was very unexpected.

Eddy that cut and colour is IT. So good!
FR suits him so well
Agree🔥
it is really pretty. i wasnt too surprised with somi coming out with makeup with so many ppl wanting an idols look
okay buzzed sides, dark hair, and facial hair peeking through !! mascianaaaaa

The criticisms I saw was that the packaging looked cheap for the price

Literally one of the only people I'd trust a review from 🙏🙏
This pallette is so beautiful 😭 the pink and blue shades are my favourite!!!
I love the titles of the videos LMAOO they're all so interesting and fun

the stuff u mentioned abt the pricing at the start is so true. that comparison to that glint highlighter was pretty surprising
OMG i was waiting for someone to try this. I'm so happy you did it
thank you
this palette is GORGEOUS, I don't wear makeup often but this has me tempted
The review made me want that palette, the way you explain why you like your brushes + the different colours for different purposes is very great to know so thank you for this honest review
the design and artworks are actually made by somi 🥰 the drawing of a girl on the packaging is her first art when she was still a child 🥰 thank you for this review 🫶🏻
this makes me want to buy GLYF even more, all the colours are so pretty !
Somi did a great job!

Come from the street interview and now I love your makeup
it was so helpful to have you explain the brushes and to see the difference in how they apply the same pigment
Miss fast forward definitely made this palette for you with that shade naming. She thought she was slick 🤣🤣
I can’t wait for the global release!! 🥰
I knew you were gonna review her bran so i was waiting for this 💅 i hope you can review more from her brand
I love the haircut, I actually like it more like this
It looks so good, I normally not into powder highlighters because it always appears dry but wow this is so finely milled it looks like skin but better
Exactly as a makeup lover the pricing on this is NOT over the top as some people wanna push for
Gosh, I just love you and I would love to see more skincare videos!! I know your skincare is really basic, but literally basic skincare, when you dont change much gives the best results... And I could watch it over and over, and you talking during it, aghhhhhhhhhh!!
i’m not a highlighter girl, but this make me want to buy it too. looks so pretty 😍
uhhhhhhhh really liking the new hairstyle!
Looks super cute! I love how it looks the blue in the inner corner of your eyes! It pops really well
OMG Eddy`s skin is GLOWING
Omg you look so stunning with this cut😍
This is a beautiful palette! Really like it!
she's like a lowkey makeup girlie based on the few getting ready vids i've seen. cute if she did this with her mua
This palette actually looks kinda nice. Might consider checking it out.
Lemme quickly finish off lifting these damn weights and I shall devour in this video after!! 😩
Petition for a full interview
Love your dark hair so so much 😍
the shades are so pretty!! unleashia just dropped similar highlighters, would be interesting to see the difference 👀
this palette is so stunning, I don't usually pay attention to celebrity releases but this one might be worth it
I have a feeling that another idol transformation may by in the works - Edward you looked beautiful with these highlighters! :)
You know it's good when Edward brings in the DEEEEEP voice lol
Your skin looks amazing 🤩!
yo your hair looks so darn good! your skin too!!! you look amazing!!!
Yes l like his more tan skin
for the price, i think its really good and it looks super pretty too. knetz LOVE to complain about everything istg
For a celeb multi-pan highlighter product the press is actually not bad. It’s actually about average for upper mid/lower high end tier of products.
Wait…why am i so impressed by the highlighters though?
Winner winner Chicken Dinner 😊. Looks like a great purchase!!!!! Luv your videos including Bunny & Cherry and Double D!!
I love learning how to use makeup with you Ed! ! Hope one day I can meet you!
I came from that interview video..I don't even do makeup but it was sm fun. Great work!
Nooooooo Eddie the 3rd shade suitssss youuuuuu the best
Hey gurl 💋, are you going to buy the new violet strawberry rococo limited edition that Flower Knows will be releasing this Monday, April 8? I would love a review from youuu 😩🩷
Watching this while doing night skincare might be a bad idea cause now I wanna play with my makeup too🥹🥲🫠
i think i'm gonna buy this wtf
its so funny how u refer to her as jeon somi the whole time
Darlin’, you are GORGEOUS with your natural hair colour! BTW, I was howling while watching the Tik Tok videos…Mr. Man-on-the-Street talking about Korean packages. 😂😂😂 Loved it!!
I come here because the viral interview
Me to
Oh this is going to be juicy.
Edward where tf are you ??? It’s been two long weeks 😭😭😭
Love your content! Any chance you might consider reviewing the Tirtir red cushion foundation? I can’t trust any other source but it looks sooo good
Oh honey.. you need to do a full interview lol 😆
approved by edward ✅
I just bought the Glint highlighter lol and this looks super nice. It’s a bit weird and random but your lips look so cute.
I loveee your hair!!!
you looks so pretty on this video! and what foundation are you wearing????
Doung the lords work
I actually use several green highlighters! I'm very fair with green undertones. I wouldn't say it looks NATURAL, but it doesn't look odd either. It looks cyborg-y, y2k-y. Should I upload a look?
Oh yes!!! You should
I've seen some drama revolving around her dropping makeup but like...the highlighters are actually super pretty????????
Man, I want this but how do I get this in the US
YES I NEEDED THIS
They are looks so good. I want to buy too
Eddy looks so damn good
Its a good highlight for western look. Korean might feel this highlight little bit much.
i didnt know Pony worked with Somi, omg I love Pony, my first makeuo artist I came across
excuse me, but whats ur foundation? it looks fine as hell❤
Not Edward looking like a whole ass ✨MEAL✨ in his dark hair era
Same *l say quietly*
I'd love to see an all natural nude look for us cool tone girlies.
Your haircut now is so Filipino. Do you remember the 2x3 cut students get here in PH back in the day? 😆
it's so goodddd
i want this palette so bad
Getttrr it mama
tbh i think it's a little expensive for what you;re getting compared to other brands, but it's not terrible. it reminds me A LOT of a cult fav of a few yrs ago, the Sleek makeup highlighter
4:41 Vampire skin? THIS IS THE SKIN OF A KILLER BELLA
Girl what is your hand cream because this skin is smooooooth
Can you please compare it to the dior one
hiii I love your videos
who loves his videos 👇🏽
What brush did you use to apply aegyo sal highlight?
I was a little apprehensive, lookedn cheap but then you did the test at the beginning and I went oooo and then Eddie went oooo and it was basically just ooo ing a long. lol
I feel they look too similar except the blue one. I wonder if it works on multiple skin tones
She's been getting constant fire ever since the s-bucks controversy so i guess that's why this beauty brand release got quite the hate 😅
Deserved
i always find it funny how Edward closes one eye every time he applies like anything even when using a lip gloss lmao
Off topic. The hair is giving rn
Anyone knows where can I get this shipped to the States?
The haircut!!!!
31 Seconds! Never clicked faster! love your videos
the hair reminding me of old school edward HAHA
Oh honey!
ngl i wasn’t prepared to like this
