Natasha Denona Retro + Mini Bloom Swatches
Here are swatches of the just-released Natasha Denona Retro Mini Eyeshadow Palette ($25.00) and Natasha Denona Bloom Mini Highlighter Blush ($19.00). Based on how Sephora lists them, they seem to be permanent…
Heads up: Galaxia in this palette is quite different from the version in the Star palette!
I really like this palette! I’m interested to see how it reviews. The eye looks is very pretty. (The shade called 60s looks like it should be called 70s, when that shade of green was super popular.)
I was thinking 70s too. Everything about this makes me think of those very botanical, soft-focused ads for perfume and stuff, not so much the 60s. (I was not around for either, but I associate blue or white/mattes more with the 60s and greens and golds/metallics with the 70s.)
Speaking as someone who was around during the 60s and 70s, you’re exactly right!
Is the mini bloom blush a cream or a powder?
It’s a powder.
I’m not sure I’m seeing the light pink shift that was supposed to be in Bloom.
Thank you for posting swatches so quickly. My itchy trigger finger has been hovering over this one since early this week. I’m going to pass. Yay!!!! I do not wear green often, I have dark olive grey green eyes and greens do nothing for them. Plus, I happen to like the greens in the Safari palette quite well and I do not see me needing this.
This palette is so stunning! I hope it reviews well!
If these are truly permanent, then I’m definitely getting the Retro Mini palette. It looks like the perfect softer take on spring eye looks that don’t run traditional pastel or bright. I like that a bunch!
Ditto Nancy. And as someone who like me who seems more into the dark, sultry looks, I don’t quite do pastels (I like looking at them, like paint, but wearing them is another story). But I actually could see myself wearing this for work, Easter service, weddings or going to the store.
I love this color story and I really hope she does a big palette like this.
No surprise – I like 60s and Industrial; the rest is all too pink. So easy pass for me.
Mine arrived today and I absolutely love it. The color story is perfect for a spring spent in quarantine. ?
Quarantine! What a great excuse for me to get it, but since we’re in serious quarantine here (France), I’ll wait towards the end as I’m concerned for shipping (the workers and the delay). It may be my first outing purchase to celebrate spring (at least I hope we’re out by them).
I just love that Industrial shade….but the rest of the mini palette is just not for me, far too pinky. And 60’s looks to be a bit of a patchy matte.
I kinda like it! It looks a simple palette but the finishes of the shimmer pans are very luminous.
I see myself easily wear it on a daily basis.
Take care and stay safe!

This is such a lovely and refreshing (hah!) color story, but I feel like I do have dupes of these shades in different palettes.
This is… Giving me the feels.
I really do hope this is permanent.
I’m still befuzzled (even more so now) on how they got the look on the model from these shades? ?
I really like the look of this palette. All my money is going to appliances, my fridge quit this morning and one of my ovens has been acting up so it’s time to replace everything. Joy!
I was really hoping that 1. The shade 60s was more gray-toned than green-toned,
And, 2. That this was a cool-toned palette. Every shade in it is “warm” or “very warm,” and I am so tired of warm-toned palettes.
I thought this might be the first ND eye palette for me, but I was wrong.
I’m not a pastel person, but as I said before, this may just see it’s way into my makeup kit! It’s “simply” pretty! No fuss, looks like you could just whip it on and go. And it swatches almost perfect!
Ooo, looked at it again, Industrial is beautiful!
I’m curious to see Industrial compared to the Industrial shade from her 5-pan palette No 9 (that palette would pair BEAUTIFULLY with this one) and how Galaxia compares to Galaxia from the Star palette.
I think I’m a bit in love with both the eye shadows and the blush.
I might decide to buy it after reading the reviews. We’ll see.
Ah, different from what I was expecting. I will skip this one.
I ordered the palette. The swatches look great!
I ordered mine yesterday morning!
It’s scheduled for arrival in two weeks, due to the overwhelming amount of deliveries right now. I’m okay with that, I’d love to have it sooner, but all in good time.
Still, very excited for this pretty palette and trying a whole new look–it seems very soft and botanical and spring-like. I never wear green, but I think it will bring out the green in my hazel eyes.
I would like to add the palette to my wishlist in my vanity but I don’t see a way to do that anymore – I used to sometimes see a listing for the whole palette in these previews and could add it there, or click on a shade and find the “contained in a palette” part to find the database entry for a palette, but now it just redirects me back to the summary and I can’t add the entire palette to my wishlist. Is there some way to be able to do this for palettes that have not yet been reviewed?
I’m not sure what you mean? If you click on any shade, it shows up as “available in a palette/set” which shows the Retro Mini Eyeshadow Palette. On that page (https://www.temptalia.com/product/natasha-denona-mini-eyeshadow-palette/retro/), there is a wishlist icon at the beginning of the page – right under the title.
Ah, thanks for pointing that out! I think I was used to finding it lower on the page before, after the first pictures. Now I know where to look – much appreciated.
