Best everyday eyeshadow?

[chelspaigexo]

Best everyday eyeshadow palette? This sounds silly.. but I do my eye makeup in my car before work. So I want something small enough to fit in the makeup bag I keep in my purse. I don’t need a large palette. Just something small with neutral colors. I’m blue eyed with blonde hair. Thanks ❤️

I would recommend the TARTE - Tartelette™ In Bloom Clay Eyeshadow Palette.  The colours are super easy to blend, pigmented, and it has everything you need for an everyday look.  The only downside however, is that the pallet does have some fallout so if you're doing your makeup in the car, you would have to be careful.

check out the smashbox trios! THey have a ton to choose from, including some fun colours and textures/finishes, but for neutral work looks that you can build on, they have 3-4 matte neutrals designed for different complexions. That way, you're likely to find one that suits your colouring. The shadows in those matte neutral trios are nice and blendable.

I know a lot of brands (Smashbox included) do mini neutral palettes with more shades in them, but honestly, for a take-to-work palette, you don't need 2 different vanillas, 3 camels, 2 medium browns, 2 deep browns, and a metallic poop colour! I've always found that I don't reach for half the colours because they're so similar to each other but the undertones don't suit me. Plus, they're usually tiny, shallow pans that aren't value-friendly. Just throw a tiny pot of glitter or a single metallic shadow in your bag for those days you need to head straight from work to an evening out and want to amp up your look a bit.

Here's the Canadian link to the product (hope it redirects if you're not in Canada): https://www.sephora.com/ca/en/product/photo-edit-eye-shadow-trio-P427042?skuId=2028801

Best of luck finding something that works for you! 🙂

@chelspaigexo I feel you with the car makeup 😂 I recommend the HUDA BEAUTY - Obsessions Eyeshadow Palette. It comes in a bunch of colors, and the pans are full size (but the packaging is tiny - there is 0 wasted space). Plus the shadows are super buttery and forgiving and blend out like a dream!

@chelspaigexo You might try Urban Decay Naked2 Basics Matte Eyeshadow Palette Naked Basics 2. I love the regular size naked palettes and this one is a smaller version with great neutrals.
