Long-lasting eye shadow palette for cool skin tones

Any recommendations? I find most shades tend to be a bit too warm for me. Bonus points if there aren't many glittery shades as I never wear them.

Have you looked at the Natasha Denona “I Need ad Nude” palette?

NigellaWannabe1 · 18/12/2023 15:33

No, I haven't! I've never heard of that brand...

Not cheap but lovely quality and actually useful. You can travel well with this palette and do day and night looks.
This photo isn’t entirely accurate, but gives you a good idea.

Dior Cool Neutrals, but you might think it has too many metallic/glittery shades: https://www.dior.com/en_gb/beauty/products/dior-backstage-eye-palette-Y0012000.html

Huda Beauty Cool Matte Obsessions is lovely and really good quality.

I also like Viseart - they have a few cooler toned palettes and their shimmers aren’t full on glittery but more subtle. I think they do some all matte palettes too.

Another good option is the Makeup By Mario Etherial (something or other) palette. Gorgeous and a bit smaller than the Natasha Denona one. (Although more expensive here in Aus)

I think quite a few of the above are still quite warm.

I'm jewel winter and bought this from Boots; there's only 3 colours and maybe 1 is a bit glittery? I'm experimenting with this at the moment:-

Hi, just a little update to let you know I eventually bought the Urban Decay Naked Basics 2 palette recommended above. Useful colours, thanks! I think I also need to learn how to apply them properly. I'm so rubbish at applying eyeshadow that my eyes sometimes look "dirty" rather than polished. Argh...

Ah what you need is a few YouTube tutorials and some new brushes. The real techniques eye set would be good to start with.
