Yes this is so innovative ! ❤It’s really shows why I follow KZreadrs like you who know their products really well! Edited // Im just curious which indie palette that would represent beauty bay palettes because I’m looking to try those palettes too :)

Kind of surprised that the Natasha Denona recommendation wasn’t Sydney Grace, but I like Oden’s Eye, as well. Wearable shades with pops of color and the palettes they’ve released are so pretty, perfect for everyday and special occasions.

The recommandation for unearthly is so on point! They have completely replaced melt in my heart and they never disappoint. I’ve just switch to indie over the years (a lot because of Angie’s and Heather’s content) and I’ve never looked back!

@AngelicaNyqvist they did bundles for like 70 ish bucks or more with palette, lipsticks and blush in such. Injust wanted the palette. They up the price a lot if there not in bundles there still up there. I have two of there alien palettes when there more affordable. Just saying they jack up the price a lot

This concept is just what I needed! The “no makeup makeup” trend seems to have caused mainstream makeup brands to be either boring or non existent with eyeshadow this year. I have been looking more and more at many of the brands you featured here for my “exciting palette” fix. I am doing a no buy right now, but I will definitely be getting some of these someday. I also want to give Sydney Grace a shout out. Such good quality, and so affordable. And each month, they offer a small curated bundle of products at a really great price!

Hi Angie! Thank you so much for mentioning our brand and for showing your love and support. ❤

Of course!

I totally think Sydney Grace should be here, too! Charlotte Tilbury quads or neutrals with a twist?! They’re great at that.

That Blend Bunny All Done Up palette is fantastic. Who needs the Xenon palette when you have that first column? For special shades like Pat McGrath, I always think of Clionadh. Great multichromes and shimmers without overpaying for black lacquer packaging.

Thank you for this video. I’ve been watching your channel for about 6 or 7 years now - well before you left Sweden - and I’m so glad I came across your channel back then. There weren’t a lot of channels reviewing indie brands like you. There were a few who would feature them here and there but not NEARLY to the extent that you were (and are) doing it. So, I appreciate you and your channel because there’s so many brands making great makeup that I wouldn’t have known otherwise. Loved the look today, btw! 💜

Glaminatrix, the indie brand Angie recommended if you like ABH, is based in Australia!

I love this concept! I myself prefer to support indie brands as opposed to the mainstream, so this helped me to narrow down what products and company to look into. Please keep this going, it would be cruel to take this series away from us 😂

I do try to check out indies. It is hard, though, with the price of international shipping that a lot of the American indie charges. I tried to buy the other day, and shipping was double the price of the palette. I understand that it is out of their control most of the time, so no hard feelings. But it is the main factor I consider when choosing. Blend bunny for example has very expensive shipping to where I live, almost the same cost as the palette. Also, thank you, Angie, so much for mentioning a couple of indie options that not all are from the U.S.

@@AngelicaNyqvist Also true, but from my personal experience, being from Europe, but not the damned EU, if I try to buy from the European based stockists, they are mostly only EU based and ship only to the EU countries. Which, why? Love being the second grade citizen of the world. They do not even want to take your money, hahaha

@andmoreagain7 have you tried Lethal Cosmetics? I live outside of the EU and even though their offices are in Berlin, they ship worldwide with decent shipping prices. I ordered several times from them and love their formulas! I have the same issues with shipping from the US to where I live

PMG lovers wanting Ensley Reign was right on point. PMG color stories (or lack of) have had me drooling over ER for months

This is a brilliant idea. Thank you for all the “alternative” suggestions 🧡

I really like this video! I would also recommend Sydney Grace for neutral-lovers looking for indie quality.

That's a good one too! I don't own any of their neutral palettes but I know my friend Karen Harris loves them :D

Sydney Grace for neutrals. The mattes are amazing. The shimmers are more glimmery than bold, at least in the palette I have, but their so nice.

This video idea is GENIUS. I have my appreciation for some mainstream palette releases, but indie eyeshadow color stories are truly top notch. I’m a happy clown too, but I think it’s great that indie brands are now creating more neutral-leaning options to be more approachable. On another note, my Cosmic Beauty Winter Wonderland palette is on the way, and I’m super excited 🩵

It's a testament to Cosmic beauty that when I went on the site just now any palette I looked at that I might be interested in is out of stock! They must be good! Nobody ever talks about them though! Thank you for another awesome video Angie!!❤

I really enjoyed this video! I had fun playing guess which indie brand Angie is going to pair with the mainstream brand lol.

I feel like I just sat through a college level eye shadow class in the very best way possible! TFS! 💜

Wish Kaleidos would do more of their quads, love them.Sydney Grace is a good Indie brand for neutrals and she's always inclusive of different skin tones. Love Ensley Reign but they're not the same quality as Pat McGraft's eye shadows. Great Indie alternatives!

Not me seeing you hold up the Blend Bunny Lure palette thinking that is a beautiful palette I should get it and then five seconds later realizing I already have it in my collection 😂😂

Here is hoping that the winter wonderland will still be in stock when I get paid at the beginning of the next month... Bumped out and missed out on ultra Violet

Angie, your video recommending Indie is incredibly clever and much needed! Thank you for consistently shining a light on Indie Brands and staying true to your core audience.

I was placing guesses for the recommendations as you went, and I was able to guess most! I think this was a great concept for a video. The way you balanced a bold rainbow eye look with a crisp white shirt and slicked straight hair was *chef’s kiss* ☺️

I think this is a great idea! I just began dipping my toes in indie brands this past year- and I don’t know if I’ll ever purchase mainstream eyeshadow palettes again!!!

What a great idea, and what beautiful recommendations! Also love the super classic outfit and hair and then the burst of color on the eyeshadow

I have a little over 200 eyeshadow palettes but Yucca is my FAVORITE! I just hit pan on calathea! ND has my favorite mainstream formula! Hot take: ND is WAY better than PMG!! (Still love PMG though! 😂)

Tysm 🥰

This was fantastic 🔥🔥🔥 thank you

This was super interesting! I love both abh and glaminatrix. I am a neutral lover, and I really want that blend bunny palette you showed. I just tried the oden's eye stone pallette and was super impressed with their quality. I'm planning on picking up Amy's collab as my 1st adept purchase. I'm enjoying dipping my toes into indie brands.

Great idea! Love this video 😊

This is making me want to use my Blend Bunny All Done Up Palette and my Cosmic Brushes Muse Palette. They both have some of my favorite eyeshadow formulas. I actually love my PMG palettes for the metallics and satins. The “special shades” for me are not always what I am looking for.

Fantastic video, i totally agree with everything you said Angie. I turned to indie about 3 years ago and I've never looked back. I only mainstreame brand i buy from now is ND. Indie just fills my creative need 😊

I freaking loved this video Angie… loved it

I started going Indie in 2019 because of Angie. I love Oden's Eye(have all 3 Angie palettes ). Just got Ensley Reigns's "Groovy Garden". I love their matte formula.

Love this video idea! And your eye look is stunning!

This is sooo smart! Cant wait to watch this❤

Great idea for a video! Sometimes to save $$$ on shipping it can be good to find a brand from your geographic region too. If you don't live somewhere close to a social media hyped brand, there can be indie brands based near you who can supply your fun colours or wear-to-work staples that don't take ages to arrive or cost a fortune to post to you. Love the eye looks! :)

Cool video! Cool concept.

This is a really fun idea!

I wish unearthly cosmetics and Ensley reign would find a stockist in Australia 😭 I so want that cold moon palette. So glad that blend bunny now has a stockist here. Indie blows mainstream out of the water!!

Love this idea! I'm surprised not to see Sydney Grace. I don't really shop indie other than the GlossGods palettes you recommended a while back (I wanted to try multichromes) & black-owned brands (Ace Beauty, Coloured Raine & Mented, not sure if Uoma and Juvia's Place count).
