Must Have High End Eyeshadow Palette?
39 posts, 27 members
I have all 3 Naked palettes and love them all. I think they are a great high end palette. Just make sure that you do your research before purchasing as you DO NOT need them all. Figure out what colours you like and just get that one (if you like them).
I wouldn't recommend any MAC collections palettes as they can be so hit or miss, it is a product much better to buy in individual pans by them. But can be a cool way to make your own perfect palette.
I just had a look through my collection and they are the only larger high end palettes I own! Would love a Lorac palette though.

I have my eye on the travel sized Smashbox Full Exposure palette, it's so freakin' gorgeous. Definitely love love love the look of the Too Faced Chocolate bar palette. And I'd say from the Naked palettes the one I'm attracted to the most is Naked 2. I want the Make Up Revolution Iconic palettes as they are dupes for the Naked ones but I would definitely buy one legit one and then buy the other two as Make Up Revolution.
Perfect timing for this thread. Iv also been thinking about which pallete to invest in. At the moment, the too faced chocolate pallete seems to be the leading item, but iv heard good things about some of the Stilla palletes, so i need to do some more research into it. It is really helpful reading the other comments too though! Iv seen the lime crime palletes around so might need to look into them aswell.
I love my Too Faced Chocolate Bar palette, although I actually use my Makeup Revolution Iconic 3 palette more - I love the colours! It's a dupe for the Naked 3 so I would imagine that being something I would use a lot of. I'm also lusting over the Lorac Pro palette 2 right now, definately on my wish list.
OMG yes!! the Stila in the light palette is delish!! check out reviews on it, also don't forget to see if there is reviews on the other mentioned palettes, take advantage of the information already on the site =) I'm actually wearing the Stila in the light palette today, its super damp, dank, and miserable and I needed something to make my face glow so I got a mix of sunset and kitten and smudged brown liner all around its really nice and cheery
Eeee it's too hard to choose! I own two high end palettes but I don't believe that they're a must have, so I won't mention them, but there are so many that are must haves! Aka, so many that I want.
I am currently lusting after are the Lorac Pro, Too Faced Chocolate Bar, Stila in the light and Kat Von D Monarch. Dreams are free, haha.

The high end palettes that I have are Chocolate bar, naked 1, lorac pro 2, another urban decay one in purple packaging but I'm not sure of a name and nude'tude by the balm (is that high end or mid-end??).
Naked 1 is totally my fave but I've been using the choc bar palette pretty much every day for the past few weeks and I'm really loving it. The colours are beautiful, and there is a lot so you don't have to stick with the same eye looks plus it has a couple of colours too.
The lorac is my newest and I've only used it once, but the colours are super-pigmented and really nice to use.
What colours do you gravitate towards? If I could only get one highend palette, I would stick to nuetrals like naked1 or 2 or choc bar so you would get lots of use out of it and then use cheaper brands for colours. Wet n wild does really cheap palettes that are really nice to use, or there is chi chi and sleek which are around $20-$30.

Oh and I forgot to say that my next eyeshadow purchase will probably be makeup geek shadows. They say on youtube that they are 'drugstore' prices but they are $7us each so by the time you make up a palette plus convert it nz dollars, they aren't really cheap. the pigmentation on them looks so good and the foiled ones look amazing as well.
I really really love neutral shadows, but I definitely also gravitate towards shimmery bronzes/golds. But then I also love the look of palettes that have pops of colour in them. I honestly have sooo many eyeshadows because they're my favourite part of my make up looks. I feel like there are so many palettes that if I had, I would use more than anything. Like with the Vice 3 palette I thought the green was absolutely gorgeous and wanted it so bad even though I never use green eyeshadow!
Oh man this forum is dangerous ha I love eyeshadow palettes! They take the hard work out of finding complementary colours. I can vouch for the quality and colours in the Naked 1 & 3. I use them regularly. Make sure you read up on Naked 2, from what I've gathered it tends to suit cooler skin tones more so I don't think it's for me. Stila: In The Light has been on my watchlist for a couple of years. I own the single shade 'kitten' from the palette so I know if the other colours in the set are even half as pigmented and beautiful it'll be a winner. I also have the 88 Original Palette from Coastal Scents which I don't use as often but I bought to cover all colours for all occasions! The shadows are lovely and pigmented, and $14.95 USD you're getting a lot of colours for your money. Their Metal Mania and Warm palette would also do well in my collection I think. For some reason I've never heard much about the Too Faced Chocolate palette but it's officially been added to my wishlist...scented with real chocolate?! Get outta here :p !
You definitely came to the right place to ask! As many of the ladies have mentioned, the Chocolate Bar Palette is a beautiful palette that you can create heaps of looks from. As Ellie mentioned, Stila's In the Light Palette is highly underrated and insane quality and I also recommend Lorac's Unzipped palette if you want a rose gold palette. All of these are beautiful. Let us know which one you get!
Omg I just can't answer this one haha! I chop and change between all my palettes so often I love them all equally (It would be like picking a favourite child haha).
All of the Stilla "In the..." palettes are fantastic and as Ellie said In the Light is highly underated and is fantastic quality and value for money too!
In saying that I love the naked palettes and the too faced chocolate bar palette too :/
Lorac Pro palette one would be one of my suggestions and a top favourite of mine, the shadows are some of the best and it has such a fantastic selection of gorgeous neutrals, pops of colour and equal matte and shimmer shadows which is much more versatile.
It really depends what type of shadows you wear and what you are looking for in a palette.
You wouldn't likely be dissapointed with any of the palettes suggested in this thread though to be honest, they are all amazeballs!

Speaking of high end eye shadow palettes. Has anyone who's got any of the Eye of Horus eyeshadow palettes got any feed back? It's about $70 a palette. I've been lusting after them for ages but am trying to pan off my current eye shadow palettes. I'm just wondering how good it is on stayability and being crease-proof.
I haven't purchased too many palettes but the quality of the Naked 3 is amazing. I personally wouldn't reccomend the Smashbox full exposure if you are only planning on getting one palette.. whilst it looks beautiful in the pan, the colour pay off is terrible. I could only use it with wet brushes and you just can't get the shadows onto the lid as there is no pigmentation. Definitely do lots of searches for swatches, not just the product in the pan xx
I own Too Faced chocolate bar and natural eyes palettes, Lorac mega pro palette, Tarte after dark palette and UD Naked 2. While all are lovely, I would have to say the UD is by FAR my favourite and if I buy another palette I would go for another Naked because the quality and selection surpasses the others.
In saying that, I own the shade 'Kitten' by Stila after deciding I didn't need another whole palette and it is gorgeous, most beautiful shade, so if that is anything to go by then the In The Light palette looks like a great palette too
