I recently learned that she has two manufacturers: One in Italy and one in USA? Source - she talks about it right after the first swatches. So the formulations that people go bananas for are suppose to be the higher end ones from Italy and those are the $130 palettes. When she makes cheaper palettes, she also uses a “cheaper” (we’ll call this relative because her products are still expensive 😅) manufacturer it sounds like, which Patty says in the video doesn’t have the same payoff quality. The only way to check the manufacturer is to check on the back of the product itself.
