I do find it very strange that some people would rather you kept these palettes undamaged but unused, gathering dust, than refitted for a new lease on life. I love the new look frankenmother!
That's a brilliant name! Frankenmother and Frankenbaby! And people will whine and cringe over anything. I had a palette from colourpop that game with every shade slightly dinged and damaged and one completely shattered. I contacted them and they sent me replacement in perfect condition. I proceeded to go live and destroy the broken one in some ASMR style destruction. Me and about 100ppl found it very satisfying... but almost as many came to whine about how I was wasting good product and could have donated it or how they would have gladly let me ship it to them. 🙄😑 No place was gonna take it as a donation because it was broken and I wasn't paying to give away broken makeup to someone who could afford to buy new. People are weird and entitled. I'm super glad Kat frankened the palettes and will get some use out of the money she spent now. People act like makeup is food or clean drinking water... it baffles me.
This was actually so cathartic to watch - loved it. I’m a big fan of depotting, repotting, mixing franken-shadows and generally messing with my makeup. It’s really fun making something you don’t enjoy into a new combination.
Would you repress or depot? I think repressing is messy but depotting is always a risk with breaking and then even more messy for repress haha🤭😅
I know you weren't asking me, but from experience with a lot of repressing over the years in The Makeup Breakup series on Beauty News, repressing should be your last resort because it really does weaken and dry out the shadow and inevitably it will crumble and break down the track. It's only something I do when I am trying to save a broken shadow.
i can confidently say that i have never ever seen someone do this! this is such a cool idea and i’m glad you found a very creative way to make the PMG palette work for you and become fun again! 🎨
Thats what I love about Natasha Denona, that you can customize her palettes and get rid or sell shades you do not need. With rearraning my ND Palettes I fall in love with them over and over again just by a nother color scheme I can create. Pat should concider the same (=magnetic palettes)
I really wish she would! Both brands should consider singles as well
I completely agree! Now if only ND would start offering the purchase of singles so you can replace shades you've used up. I only have mini palettes from her but have a couple makeup artist friends who love her palettes because they can put all shimmers in one and all mattes in another or pull from them to make custom palettes with singles from other brands. I'm not in a position to want more eyeshadows... but when I am, I will only buy from brands where I can depot and rearrange or that sell their shadows as singles.
@@killywilly740 ND does sell singles, they're on beautylish.
@@Beautyonthebrain_ so does Pat McGrath 😂
I once commented on a video that i don't understand why norvina won't have her palettes/pans be magnetic like denona/colourpop and someone replied that she would then have to charge as much as denona for them. It was the most hilarious reply i ever got on here!
I loved what you did to them. This felt like an episode of the Makeup Breakup. Loved the finished products.
I really wish PMG would sell the special shades as singles. Then I wouldn't even mind the higher price because I could just buy exactly what I want... The palettes are just too expensive.
I’m not sure but I think she does. She has the blue one in a kit I believe I remember Tati reviewed it once
Great idea. There’s no point in saving things just because they’re supposed to be fancy but don’t work for you. Also thank you for posting this follow up so quickly. I had a lot of fun following along.
The plastic mesh just reaffirms for me that these are not for professional use. There is no way to replace those shades. There’s no way to depot and put them in magnetic pallets or all in one like you’re doing. These are very expensive commercial purpose pallets.
It’s a very common pan for this type of baked gelee formula, if they were on standard pans they would fall out
@@KitschSnitch could someone not invent a metal pan which has the mesh inside of it?
I really appreciate the last 2 videos- none of the color stories interest me and I have some great eyeshadow formulas in my collection already- but I am always tempted to get one because of all the hype around Pat McGrath eyeshadows
I’m a Pat fan. However, I completely understand your points. I have an extensive Tom Ford eyeshadow collection. I dislike most of it. The quads and palettes are not worth the money I spent, and I don’t get why the brand is so venerated. I bought into the hype for a while, thinking I kept missing something or I lacked some essential skill. It was dumb.
I wish ALL eyeshadows came magnetic to mix and match based on season, travel, whatever. So much more practical than having to dig out the hairdryer to do it the hard way! I have several self-selected MAC palettes just for this reason. I have several PML palettes that I got on sale, for the special shades, but don’t use them nearly enough to justify the cost.
The fact that these pans were so inconvenient to remove just prove to me further these were never meant for professional use… no pin holes… no magnets ..just bulky package that was marketed as luxury.
I do this a lot. My perfect palette is one I built myself. It’s your money, you do what you want. The endless disclaimers we now have to hear because people just don’t mind their own business. I’m glad you are now excited about your PM shades. I have been on the fence about this brand but thanks to you, it goes in the nope category. Your lighting is great! You look marvellous. 💕🐾💕☀️
Nicely done! Glad you’re going to get more use out of them now. I just depotted some shimmers only from the Nikkie Tutorials x Beauty Bay palette because the mattes sucked and I never used them. I’m definitely going to remember to use the shimmers now that they’re in one of my two magnetic palettes.
i have no words for how similar the pmg depotting is to a plastic morphe palette. down to the mattes breaking
I really really love the final palette. I would love to purchase a ten pan of special only pans if pat came out with those. I have the 4 pan special ones from a holiday release a few years ago and they are really good
I like your arrangements so much better than what the palettes originally looked like
This is goals thank you for sharing the process and your new palettes look amazing so I think it will mean you get more use out of these shades good job!
Wow! This is great! Awesome final “special” palette!!!!
Great job, Kat! I thought there would be a lot more destruction involved, since that packaging is so bulky, but that was awesome! I hope you enjoy these customised palettes a lot more than you previously did!
The final 10 pan is beautiful - I would buy that! I did something similar with the Natasha Denona Retro, Glam and Sunrise and kept 2 out of 3 palettes but rearranged and curated to my tastes. I wish PML would allow us to do the same. I find her quads to be a more approachable size (and weight) and would love to be able to mix and match and make my own quads.
I have 100% done this. I’m glad you showed the process for these palettes❤️
This is great, I've been wanting to depot my PM palette, too. Thanks for the tips!
Wow this was quick! I thought we would have to wait for this video haha. The palettes look amazing, and good job on the repressing👌👌
This is very impressive ! And I was holding my breath each time you were depoting the shadow you wanted to keep !
Been waiting for this!!! So excited
I *LOVE* that you tore them apart and kept what you will most likely use! Your new little mini franken palette looks like it might be pretty good for traveling or quick and easy looks too so that's a nice bonus. And now with the big franken palette, you can store it with other companion palettes like your cliondah singles and such. 10/10 in my brain I'd get soooo much more use out of them the way you have them now because I actually will go into a palette of just glittery and special eyeshadows when I'm working with a palette of all mattes or mostly mattes but I wouldn't think to reach for a PMG special shade in a normal palette when using another palette. Too much brain effort.
Omg I really love it! I enjoyed every second of this, since I'm something of a big frankening enthusiast myself. Nice work, very well done!😍
Very cool idea to retain what you really want to use! Quite satisfying to watch as well!
This was an emotional rollercoaster! Good idea to salvage the shadows you wanted to use. 👍
That tweaked mini pallet you made is one that would make me spend my money on. What a gorgeous combo of shades!
This was bold ! You did a great job. I have seen videos that make this super difficult. I may try this when I'm feeling lucky!
Ooohh this was so much fun! The final result was so pretty!!!!
That special shades palette looks so good! 🤩
Sooooo satisfying to watch this customizable palette hack. The Mothership redux version is divine !
I really like how they both turned out, great job and enjoy!
Loooove the final result of the special shades!!
Ohhh I was waiting for this one 😍
I was really happy to see this pop up. I have 5 pm palettes, but flip between them to get what I want with one look. Thanks!!!
Good old fashioned repotting. Love it. This is what I need to do but I’m lazy af.
I love you're customized palletes!! 🎉
So cool to watch!!! Inspired me to try and depot a few more of my palettes which have damaged packaging 🤔
Wow what a great job you did with the curated mother palette that you created 🙌
Your modified palettes are gorgeous!!
Fantastic job! A great watch 👌🏽
Great job Kat.👏👏👏🥰
Couldn’t wait for this. Thank you
Excellent job there, and you get to be able to use and enjoy them :)
That was Awesome!! You bought it , you might as well enjoy it the way you want!!
This video was so helpful!! I have a few PMG palettes that I just never use but I really do want to save a few shades. Thank you for this!
Both palettes look so pretty now!
LOVED,LOVED,LOVED IT ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
That was satisfying to watch.
This is really satisfying to watch...👌🥳
I loved this and I am so glad you have a corner of the internet that is over the hype for PM palettes
Let them rage! It's your property to do what you want with!
Nicely done! I only have one Pat palette, and I think it will be the only one I ever own.
This is actually so satisfying! I’m so happy for you that you created palettes that you would actually use. I personally hate cluttering stuffs.
That was so satisfying to watch ! 👏🏽 I’ve depotted some motherships I had , completely destroyed the packaging though 😅
I gasped when you popped out that pink one in the sublime palette! I’m so glad it survived! You made beautiful palettes and I hope you love them so you can get use out of them after all!
There’s something very satisfying about watching you do this.
I love this! I've done similar with Naked palettes. I put my favourite shades from 1-3 & Honey in two Naked Basics palettes, because I far prefer the packaging of the latter.
I'm interested to follow the rest of your eyeshadow declutter series, especially interested to see what pricey brands you find worth the splurge.
I just did this with the Sandra Rose palette. All the mattes had gone off, and I only liked a few of the shimmers, so I depotted and kept those.
This was fun, it's nice to see someone as annoyed with these palettes as I am lol.
This was so deeply satisfying to watch for many reasons 😂😂😂
This was so awesome!
AMAZING! I adore your new palettes!! xXx 😎✌🏼💜💜💜💜
Love the special shades palette!!!
Oh well done!! 👏👏
I am loving this video
Absolutely beautiful. Ive been hoping she does an all special shade palette for her 10th palette. Fingers crossed!
Well done Kat! I don't own a Mothership, but in 2020 I depotted all my palettes and learnt that everything is depottable with the right technique and care. I only added 3 small premade palettes to my collection since then, which I like as they are, but everything else is in z palettes and I only kept shades I loved and no repeats 🖤
I did something similar too , & I’m considering depotting more palettes I own because I’m always tempted to buy certain color stories yet I have th in palettes! I’m on low buy for no reason lol 😆 I’ll pick up some magnetic palettes & meta stickers soon !
ThT special palette looks amazing 🤩
Love this!!!
I did something similar with my colourpop 9 pans to make my perfect bronze palette and perfect pinky-nude palette. A bummer that it was such a pain to do but I think the outcome is beautiful and so worth it if it means you use them more.
Georgia Harris did this a few years ago and I feel like I've been daring myself to do it since. Love my PAT palettes but I don't use them because the packaging is so big and bullky it doesn't fit in my storage and I hate the small palettes because they are super awkward to hold. I loved the customized palettes you made.
The special gelee formula is quite nice to remove! I was sent a busted palette and had to repot. Happy I've got that tool with the hook :)
This is fantastic!
I enjoyed watching this and also learned a bit about depotting. :D
Brilliant idea, I think I might copy! 90% of the gold shades can go for starters 😆
This made me super nostalgic for the makeup breakup 🥰
This was such a good idea I don't have any Pat McGrath but I am sure there are other palettes I could condense down to keep just the shades I like
I have put my palettes on a heating pad and that worked really well. And I 100% support your decision to make a palette you will use. 🙂
"Now you're all special" is bloody brilliant 👏🏾 ❤🤣
Had so much anxiety watching this! Hahaha actually cheered for you every time one worked!
Yeah you did it 🤩
I had to keep reminding myself to breathe while I was watching you depot these, I kept holding my breath! 😂
Looking forward to hearing whether you get more use out of these xx
Can't wait to check reddit later and chuckle over the outrage 🤣
I remember when they came out with their singles and I asked them if the pots where magnetic. They said nope so I never bought them. It was unfortunate.
I like your two "new" palettes better than the old ones! The color schemes you ended up with somehow just make more sense to me.
Wow, I'm speechless 🙊 👏❤
Thanks for sharing your ideas 😀😀😀
This is great!
Glad you were able to turn those disappointing palettes into a palette that you'll love and use
They look great! I hope you get more use out of them now :)
Now that you have the two consolidated palettes, can you retest them to make sure they still make the cut? I feel like you don't like the formula, so even though the colors are more special, you may still not want to keep these Frankened palettes.
I have been using the 6 pan one for the last few days as an everyday palette and I do like it. I kept shades that perform well and some simple shades I can use for quick one and done shadow looks. Keeping it simple is best with this formula anything too complicated looks a bit muddy, but that suits my daily routine anyway. I haven’t used the special palette yet but that’s more of a palette for a pop of sparkle on certain occasions, so it will get use, but not in my daily life
Love it! I hate palette s that you only use a few shades. This is so satisfying ❤️🤩❤️
Love the alligator isopropyl
For metal pans I find it easiest to drop some isopropyl alcohol into the gap and the glue will dissolve in a minute.
Raging? Screw that! This was freaking therapeutic!! Thanks Kat.
I love this idea! I have mothership V, rose decadence and a quad. I’m going to make my customized palette. Like you, I think PMG is extremely overpriced, but I would like to get some use out of a few shades. Project!!!
