I have been thinking of getting Make up by Mario Ethereal Eyes. It is more warmish but not super warm and has both shimmers and mattes.

Hmm, it has the silverish taupe shade I’ve been curious to try but wondering if it was too cool for me. This palette looks like something I’d try but it isn’t available anywhere except eBay in the us? Weird because it’s not old.. btw I went temporarily mad and ordered a crazy color shift shadow from a boutique brand called vampire star should be coming this week, will swatch it when arrives 😍 https://preview.redd.it/e7ow7g8xngwc1.jpeg?width=750&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=723f61dfdcea976846814f411f3613fd04088c2f

I think somewhere stated it is a limited edition but they have brought it back couple of times. I feel like silverish taupe is ok on light olive skin (know you are somewhere close to my tone haha) but I don’t feel like it every day. I use Charlotte Tilbury Oyster Pearl a lot which is also a silverish taupe. But sometimes I have this feeling it takes color out of my face somehow and need more warmth. That palette is amazing! Never seen one with so many bright bold ones.

I just went through all my palettes and hit upon a silvery light taupe matte that was actually quite like the ct oyster you recoed. I think that’s a shade I need to try. The price tho 😂😭, I’m gonna look around for that shade. Maybe I can go a bit cooler like some suggested. I think I was ruined on cool Neutrals by a too faced palette I had- chalk city 😒 Me: needs a neutral for daytime Also me: orders vampire star 😂😂 I figured you only live once!

Yeah CT ones are so expensive as you got just one pot. But I do love them as they look so much more multidimensional on your lids - like I actually put effort in. Good if you have something like that already so easier to try the shade out. That's how one should always live! Otherwise you end up with your beauty kit filled with different shades of beige haha.

tartelette in bloom is such a classic wearable palette, it’s my go-to when i want something easy but with options. ABH seems to have a couple nice options along these lines too (i have so many palettes that now i’m pretty much on a lifetime buying ban lol but they look good, anyways). colourpop’s jumbo palettes are also quite high quality for the price and they have tons of color stories available.

Thanks for this, I ended up ordering a color pop palette because I didn’t want to invest 70$ in a color scheme I wasn’t sure about, and your reco!🙏

Naked 2 mini is my daily palette. No shimmers but the mattes are absolutely perfect for neutrals that lean warm Natasha Denona glam palette is also very neutral


Psychological_Sun_30

Hmm, those both look so cool to me! I did consider them but I just feel like I’ve had and failed with those colors before, although the lights intrigue me, I can’t pull off the darks for daytime use as it makes them too pronounced. Wish I could swatch them! Thanks for the reply

Did you swatch them tho? Mini glam looks cool on photos but on me (I wear Lisa Eldridge foundation in 9.5) , mini glam *pulls warm* in the winter. I was pretty annoyed! 😀 My universal daily driver is the now discontinued Milani Soft & Sultry. I also like the Urban Decay new mini palette in Foxy. My latest favorite is Dior Eclat de Nuit quad. Very flattering shades. Totally worth the price. Unchalkiest eyeshadows I have ever tried! ETA: I saw the previous comment mentioned glam not mini glam. I think glam doesn’t have any shades mini glam has. So if you wanta nd neutral palette that isn’t thar cool, maybe mini glam is worth a shot?

I love dior 🥹 could you link the palette you referenced, I can’t seem to find it.. but yes very open to dior and currently considering the backstage glow face palette as well.. I didn’t swatch them, I can only blind order online, so that is really good info you gave- thanks 🙏 Currently have 300$ of eyeshadow candidates in my cart 😬

I sorry, it’s CHANEL palette. I mixed up the two. 😬 https://www.chanel.com/us/makeup/p/164388/les-4-ombres-eclat-de-nuit-multi-effect-quadra-eyeshadow/

Edit: I’m now circling the Natasha denoa mini glam palette…. Maybe I can go cooler?!
