I know I’m not the only one who is slightly terrified of eyeshadow palettes. You won’t admit it, but I will: they are straight up intimidating. Not only do you need to know which color combinations won’t make it look as though you’ve got raccoon eyes (my specialty). There’s also the issue of figuring out how to apply them without making more mess than masterpiece. To be honest, I have yet to crack the code. But on the upside, I do know that dark eyeshadow palettes are a lot easier to work with instead of trying to perfect a classic smoky eye.
Don’t get me wrong–I’m not for retiring the smoky eye altogether. There will always be a space for it in my routine, even if it’s just for special occasions. But going heavy on the black shadow and liner gets extremely monotonous and more often than not, is difficult to remove. And as someone who is always this close to skipping makeup remover at the end of the day, it’s exactly why I rarely get fancy in the eye department . However, if there’s one type of product that is always guaranteed to get the dust wiped off my brushes, it’s a jewel-toned eyeshadow palette.
It still packs the punch of a darker shade, but the colors aren’t lacking in vibrancy. You can still be a standout without going full-on black. And for some reason, 2019 has gifted us with a handful of new palettes that fall into this category. See our favorites ahead.
