L’Oréal Paris La Colour Riche La Palette Nude 1
Bets are you’ll reach for this versatile, multi-finish palette from L’Oréal Paris almost every day. On the back of the palette, you’ll find instructions for creating four different eye makeup looks using the 10 different shades included.
Maybelline New York The Blushed Nudes Eyeshadow Palette
For a neutral, pink-toned palette, The Blushed Nudes is our go-to. It’s a 12-shade palette with rose gold pigments, beige shades and dusty peaches. Pair it with rosy cream blush and a pink lip for a monochromatic look.
NYX Professional Cosmetics Ultimate Color Palette in Brights
This is the kind of palette you’d find inside a makeup artist’s kit — it’s an essential. We know, it’s literally a rainbow of colors, but there will come a time when you need a hot-pink shadow to complete a look. Just wait . . . it’s more wearable than you may think.
Maybelline New York Shadow Blocks Eyeshadow Palette in Broadway & Prince St
Finding an essential pink eyeshadow palette is harder than you may think. Luckily, Maybelline saved us from all the hard work by creating the Shadow Blocks palette in Broadway & Prince St. This trio of shadows is a full look in one stack; with two matte shadows and one shimmer, this curated palette never fails to create a vibrant look.
L’Oréal Paris Enchanted Scented Eyeshadow Palette
Meet your new summer essential. The Enchanted palette includes 12 warm and peachy shades in a variety of finishes, from mattes to shimmery pearls. In short, it’s the building block to just about every kind of eyeshadow look.
Maybelline New York The City Mini Eyeshadow Palette in Diamond District
Soft Champagne shimmers and romantic mauves make up the majority of this tiny palette. And while the sixth shade — a deep teal — looks like it’s out of place, it’s not. You will use it, especially when you want to spice up a soft smoky eye.
Revolution Beauty Makeup Reloaded Shadow Palette in Velvet Rose
Although this palette is still relatively new on the scene, it’s quickly heading for a cult-fave status. The shadow pans are huge, the fallout is minimal and the pigments are intense. What’s not to love?
Wet N’ Wild Rosé In The Air Eyeshadow Palette
The palette has ten shades, ranging from neutral browns to deep pinks. There’s a great color payoff and for just under $6, it won’t break the bank.
Essence Cosmetics I Like To Mauve It! Eyeshadow Palette
Say it with us: Purple is a wearable shade! If you’re a purple shadow beginner, consider this palette filled with six highly pigmented purple and mauve shades. Here, you’ll find matte and shimmery textures, all of which work just as well together as they do solo.
Revolution Beauty x Clueless Tai Rolling with the Homies Palette
Rich reds and champagne shimmers: What’s not to love? Come for the price (only $5!), but stay for the way these warm shadows remix every look.
L.A. Girl Inspiring Eyeshadow Palette
Soft dramatic shadows are a dime a dozen, but this perfectly compact palette from L.A. Girl is one we’ll keep in our collections forever. Five shadows to complete an easy natural smoky eye? Count us in. We don’t mind that it’s only $10 either.
e.l.f. Cosmetics Cookies ‘N Dreams Eyeshadow Palette
This palette may be named after an iconic ice cream flavor, but, dare we say, it’s better? This eight-pan palette includes shadows we can almost promise you don’t own yet — or haven’t since 1997. The lineup of soft and powdery blues are truly the stars of this collection.
Physicians Formula Matte Monoi Butter Eyeshadow
Physicians Formula is known for their creamy, buttery formulas. Luckily, this palette is no exception. A butter blend of murumuru butter, cupuacu butter and tucuma butter is to credit for these soft-to-the-touch eyeshadows. Buildable and blendable with shades you will use every single day? We’re sold.
Milani Cosmetics Gilded Terra Eyeshadow Palette
The Gilded Terra Eyeshadow Palette features 15 shadows that run the gamut of earthy shades. From metallic gold to an iridescent violet, this palette is unlike anything else we’ve ever owned.
Black Radiance Brilliant Effects Eyeshadow Palette
Affordable vibrant colors can be hard to come by, but this under-$10 palette offers up brilliant shades that won’t induce buyer’s guilt.
Juvia’s Place The Nubian Eyeshadow Palette
This universally flattering neutral palette includes must-have auburn, bronze and champagne shadows that are so smooth and blendable the only tool you need is your fingertip.
e.l.f. Cosmetics Earth & Ocean Eyeshadow Palette
We love a palette with variety and this $14 option filled with earthy and aquatic shades seriously delivers. It’s almost too pretty to use — almost.
Colourpop Trouble Maker Shadow Palette
When we’re tired of our neutral shades, we reach for this palette. Despite its affordable price (it’s under $20), these shadows don’t feel cheap or chalky. It doesn’t hurt that we’ve never owned anything like it; in a sea of earthy shades, these punchy plums and duo-chrome pinks always stand out.
Catrice Cosmetics Rainforest Haze Eyeshadow Palette
Five-star reviews are your best friend when you’re on the hunt for new makeup, which is exactly how we found the Rainforest Haze palette. It’s rich, bold and filled with the kind of shades we almost never reach for on a daily basis — but that’s why it’s so highly rated. This green and gold color story is one you haven’t heard yet, but will love once you do.
