Which Eyeshadow Palette is Right for Me?
There is a large selection of eyeshadow palettes, it’s easy to lose track of them. We show you five pallets for very different needs.
1. For the day
Do you want your eye make-up to be more subtle for the office or on the weekend? Nude nuances go just as well as a soft light pink, copper or subtle green. Totally practical: A light peach also looks good as a blotch of blush on the cheek. This is how you conjure up a little freshness on the cheeks. Dab the beige-white tone below the browbones and on the heart of the lips. This makes the look more alert and the lips look more beautifully shaped. The “City Kits Urban Make-up Set” palette from Maybelline New York combines all the colors.
2. The professional version
A total of 15 tones – that’s an announcement, even with an eyeshadow palette. Usually it consists of a maximum of 12 nuances. Zoeva’s “Matte Spectrum” also includes unusual colors such as matte yellow, orange, red and purple tones. Therefore this palette is more suitable for advanced users. One should have a trained hand and a little bit of skill so that the colors can be used skillfully. But if you can do it, you will have a lot of fun with this palette.
3. For the glitter queen
Not only in the evening you want to sparkle a little more? Then it is worth investing in the “Narsissist Wanted Eye Shadow Palette”. It is almost always sold out, so you should get it quickly. It includes heavily pigmented brown and pink tones and gives the eye a super glittery look. Tip: On the movable eyelid one of the sparkling tones looks especially beautiful and the glow is sure to be yours.
4. For the natural look
If you care about your ecological footprint and still enjoy make-up, you will like Kiko’s “Green me Eyeshadow Palette”. The new line consists of a high percentage of natural ingredients. Until now, this often meant poorer pigmentation of the colors and not such a large selection of colors. But the nine colors convince of the opposite. Rich tones and a long durability characterize the eco-palette. If you like it more natural, use a brush and dip it slightly into the lighter brown tones. Those who prefer more expressive looks reach for an applicator moistened with water. That way, the make-up lasts forever.
5. For Smokey Eyes
Anyone who puts on an eye shadow palette usually has the intention of putting on Smokey Eyes. For this you need many different shades. The “Naked Heat” palette by Urban Decay offers a wide range (and is already highly sought after by fans). Remember: The darkest shade goes into the crease of the eyelid. A lighter glitter tone on the movable one and a matt beige on the inner corners of the eyes.
