This. Some people definitely have off/bad palettes, I don't think they're faking the videos or anything, but I definitely think some of them are being extra about it. Yes, they kick up some fallout, but because they're so pigmented, you shouldn't need to swipe the brush back and forth like 15 times to pick up the color anyway. That's where they're losing me lol Like just tap the brush in once or twice, it's enough.
I will also say though I notice a lot of the people doing reviews use shades differently than I would, so I feel like my experience is going to be different anyway. I don't use bold matte colors on my eyelid, the only shades in Subculture I would use on my lid are Dawn and possibly Roxy, but most likely just Dawn (not counting the shimmers). All of the bold color mattes I would only use on my outer corner, crease, or lower lash line, so I'm not putting a big slab of color on like some people are. I'm more a 'neutral lid with a small pop of color' girl. Everyone has their own looks they like, so maybe Subculture works for me bc of the way I do my shadow, and my needs/expectations are different.
