Curious to know if there are any shades in palettes which you never seem to touch! Mine are definitely gold shades, any type of gold or light bronze shades are not my cup of tea and almost every palette I own has some form of a gold! My favorite colors are definitely dark shimmery browns and light shimmery highlight shades, and also a cream toned matte shade!
YES!!! I hate most gold and yellow-bronze shades too! I have tons of then because every other palette has one and rarely use them. Bronzes make me look ill and golds feel very flashy and going out type of makeup. But when I’m going out at night I prefer either a deep smokey in jewel tones or a dark lip. So I never wear true golds and try to avoid them. Same for oranges especially shimmers.
On the other hand I enjoy cool toned golds, shades that are something between gold and silver. I love champagne shimmers, mauve neutrals and cool taupes in both matte and shimmer formulas. I always appreciate a matte cream or a very pigmented black in a palette. And I look for pale pink shimmers because I don’t have many and I really like them on the inner part of my lid.
I hate glittery shades. Oranges and golds are my no no. It looks really fake on me. I don’t like the burgundy shades. I prefer matte shades that are lilac, mauve, light tans, dark browns. I prefer a more natural look.
I always go for cooler toned neutral leaning shades. Taupes, greys, mauves, light browns, pinks, champagnes, silvers
I avoid pretty much anything warm toned unless it happens to go really well with my outfit
I go for brown, beige, white, pinkish, orangey and greyish colours and mostly avoid everything else. Sometimes I use shimmers, but only occasionally. I use red and other bright colours in Christmas and when I prepare for celebrations, but avoid bright colours for my everyday looks. I also avoid very dark colours. If you give me black, I won’t touch it.
