    Also, thank you Eric for keeping her videos for us. I am a Canadian that was planning to move to Tennessee before she passed, and I always had a secret hope of meeting Mel in person.
    I felt that she would have been the exact same in person as she was in all these amazing videos.

    Mel, one year ago today, my handsome 10 year old, German shepherd, Rolf passed away. He always loved sitting on the porch watching videos with me. I would ask him if he wanted to see if Mel had a video, he would jump up excited and I would grab my iPad and go out on the porch. The morning of his passing he suddenly could not get up. I got him on a quilt and pulled him outside on the porch and we started watching your videos until it was time to go to vet. He was diagnosed with advanced lung cancer and was put down . It took me 4 months to sit on porch again and watch videos. Today I sit here very sad but thankful for 10 years with my sweet Rolf. Rolf to you in doggy heaven I pass on the Xenon palette.

    I bought this palette and it’s not the same as the single blackest black. The single is so much darker and lasts !! I noticed a difference right away when I used the palette. I do like the macro tech liner. I have a hard time with eyeliners smudging throughout the day and this one didn’t move. I didn’t buy the pot liners but I may get the black though. You created a beautiful look as always 😊. Great video !!

    I absolutely adore Natasha's color story with her minis, she hits the nail in the head every single time, but I just cannot wrap my head around the fact that we get less than 1 gram of product per pan, an extremely drugstore looking packaging without even a mirror! I know we can argue that it's the Natasha quality at an "affordable" price, but the quality seems to be way different from the big palettes, and the packaging scream more "help" than luxury experience

      I ordered the ND pallet but will be taking it back in the cardboard mailer since I already have the Smoke Show Colourpop ( named changed to Blowing smoke) and Have some cool mattes from Viseart and that shade in the ND blue/purple pallet.
      Morgan Turner’s review showed this pallet to be meh, so not worth it.

    Someone else said this already but I will back it up, Morgan Turner did a review a few days ago. She compared it to the colourpop palette and the colourpop had better pigment! She also had the single in the blackest black and that was much more pigmented and less patchy than the one in the palette. I thought it was so strange! PS I was interested in the nude for the water line but I think I will get the one I originally wanted from Patrick Ta since his black liner is amazing and they are all pencil. But no matter what, you look beautiful as always 😊💖

    Love the look. My favorite color story. I have the original Blackest Black. Natasha, in my opinion, was the first artist to come out with a black shadow as a mainstay in her early collection. Now everyone has a black. Charlotte Tilbury, Wayne G, Pat McGrath, etc. I don't need to reach for my OG Blackest Black because most of the palettes have decent blacks in them. Basically I feel like I have all the colors already in existing palettes. I'm more interested in the pencils which look amazing on you! Gel liners look beautiful. But they all end up drying out for me before I can use them up. Thanks for the review. I do love almost everything Natasha.

I got the palette and swatched it on my arm- (posted on my Instagram stories) - I couldn’t even swatch & build up that Blackest Black shade on me, tried multiple times, all failed. So I had to return it. I love smokey eyes so it was such a disappointment from ND. I had a high hope since I saw the leaked photo of mini Xenon last year..

    I’m hesitant to purchase this mini palette, however, I feel it would look pretty in the background of my blue/grey eyes! Hmmmm…??🤔. Beautiful look & review, Mel. Thanks!!! 🖤🤍

    The nude cream liner is great for the waterline though. The work and set nude cream liner stays put really well in the waterline

    Beautiful look! You can make anything work! I won’t pick this up because I know I’ll either never use it or don’t want to put in the work🤣 I have the blackest black single and it is very pigmented, so it’s disappointing that the formula in this palette isn’t the same as the single!

    I just love every look you create Mel. I honestly am skipping on this simply because I don’t need it and now that the kids are back in school I really have been enjoying doing no shadow & I usually just use liquid liner. 💖💖💖💖

  • @chrissymoss514

    This black is nothing, and I mean NOTHING, like the Blackest Black single. That one is blacker than black and it's the wet dry formula, it's a gorgeous shade.
    Didn't she have the same mix up with naming each formula on the midi Zendo palette?
    Anyway, I'm not getting this mini - instead I've bought the Colourpop Smoke something palette, only because I don't have the expertise to navigate the ND Xenon palette.
    WOW, you've created an absolutely stunning look Mel, just STUNNING! 😮👌💗💗💗💗

    At first the palette was an easy skip for me because it's such a specific look, but then I saw Morgan Turner review it and she got a very pretty look & I think it's very flattering on brown eyes. I also don't own her xl green or blue palettes, maybe one day (sigh). I didn't even look twice at the eyeliners but I need a good matte black so I might have to give that one a try. Beautiful look as always Mel 💕 Hope you're doing well 😊

Just ordered black eyeliner from this collection. I hope Natasha gonna come up with nude eyeliner as well. My best wishes 🙌🌹
