I usually only use black and brown shades of eyeshadow to do my makeup, so I’ve been able to use a lot of different eyeshadow pallets and I’ve gotten by just fine. However, most of the ones I use are cheap (because they usually only come with three colors) and they usually smudge, fade, or just don’t apply that great. I’m willing to spend a little bit more money on a pallet that’s good quality, but since I don’t use very many colors, every time I want to buy a pallet I feel like I’m wasting my money.

Does anyone have any brand/pallet recommendations that won’t give me a million shades I’ll never use? I usually use elf/drugstore products

    If i didn’t have tons of neutral eyeshadows already I would buy the Petites Matted Neutral by Viseart. It has a black and it’s a very matte neutral palette. The mini version costs around 40 USD and they also have a bigger version that costs around 80 USD. The difference is just in the grams, the number of shades is the same so I would personally go for the mini.

    I haven’t tried the brand but I hear great things about it coming from real MUAs, makeup youtubers and normal people. I have always wanted this palette but I haven’t bought it because I already have a lot of matte neutrals and I usually spend money in more sparkly, exciting palettes. But it really looks like a great staple for someone to have in their collection.

    Another palette I would recommend is the Too Faced Born This Way neutral palette which has both mattes and shimmers. I have this one and really enjoy it. The only bad thing is that it doesn’t have a black shade.

    I really love Revolution Maxi Reloaded Palette. It has lovely bronze colours and is quite cheap!
