My Most Loved Eyeshadow Palettes.

Wednesday, 17 February 2016
I never used to be a huge user of eyeshadow, I'd collect the odd palette here and there but I never reached for them on a daily basis. Recently I've worn shadow more or less every single day, mainly to work but also on the occasional day off if I'm going anywhere. Today I'm going to share with you a selection of Eyeshadow Palettes that I can't stop reaching for and yes I know a lot of them are from Urban Decay but what can I say!? They're amazing! Let me know if you'd like to see a more in depth post, such as an Eyeshadow Palette collection. Enjoy!!

Zoeva Cocoa Blend
This is such a stunning, convenient palette to have. When I don't know what eyeshadow look to create I usually end up grabbing this and creating some form of warm neutral smokey eye. There are champagne highlight shades, warm transition colours and even a matte black, all with amazing pigmentation. This palette only costs £15 on Beauty Bay so is fairly inexpensive for a high quality palette. The packaging is light and sleek so perfect for anyone on the go or who travels a lot with their makeup. I couldn't recommend this enough for anyone to add to their collections, I definitely want to collect more palettes from Zoeva in the near future. 


Too Faced Chocolate Bar
One very similar shade wise to the Cocoa Blend is Too Faced's famous Chocolate Bar Palette. I've been a frequent user of this ever since purchasing it last year. For someone like me who constantly sticks to warm neutrals this is an absolute must have in my opinion. The shades vary from gold and bronze tones, warm browns, to pinks and purples. These colours are buttery, super blendable and pigmented, the packaging is gorgeous and I LOVE the chocolate scent so much. What else could I possibly ask for?


Naked 1/Naked 3
These are without a doubt my ultimate favourites from Urban Decay's Naked range. I fell in immediate love when I bought the original Naked palette, the colours are literally to die for. If you don't already have this in your collection, you need it, like right now. My favourite shades from this have got to be Sidecar and Half Baked (my favourite gold shade ever). Naked 3 I love just as much, the beautiful rose gold shades are some of my favourites to wear. I love how you can create a soft pink or rose gold look or deepen it up with the darker shades. Both palettes staples in my collection and I constantly use. I'd highly recommend them both.


Urban Decay Gwen Stefani 
This is a new addition to my collection but I've 100% fallen in love with it. These shadows are so pigmented, you barely need to press your brush to them and you'll get amazing colour payoff, especially with the darker shades. I treated myself to this palette after seeing so many good reviews online, it was £40 from Debenhams but worth every penny. The packaging is slightly heavy and bulky but still a lovely design with a big mirror inside. I've been reaching for this almost every day since I got it and now desperately want to get the matching blush palette from this collection. If you haven't picked this up yet, what're you waiting for?? (Gwen Stefani pun intended there). 


Urban Decay Vice 4
This is a very new palette that I've added to my collection, I've only had it for a couple of weeks now. I wanted something with a bit more colour to it rather than the same neutrals I always reach for. I love the shade range in this palette and even though I'm yet to experiment with them all, I feel like theres a colour for every look you could ever want to create in here. I especially love the shade 'flame', a beautiful copper shade that makes my eyes pop like no other. I got this for £40 at my local Urban Decay counter and it was worth every penny. Definitely check it out if you want to inject some more colour into your shade range. 


My MAC 15 Pan Neutral Palette
I am clearly yet to completely fill up this palette but nevertheless Its still one that I always reach for. So far I have collected the shades; Phloof, Amber Lights, Patina, Wood winked, Satin Taupe, Sable and Espresso. The purple shade between Sable and Satin Taupe I'm not too sure the name of, If anyone thinks they recognise it, let me know in the comments below. I adore Mac shadows, they'll always be one of my favourites. They have an amazing shade range to choose from and I've loved creating my own palette so far. They're around £10 per pan shadow and the palette itself cost me around £15 from my local Mac counter. So much easier than rummaging around through several palettes to find shades when you can have all your favourites in one.
