Question of the Week: What are some of your favorite cool-toned eyeshadow palettes?
We’re throwing it way back here. When I saw the question of the week I went into my stash and within 2 seconds knew my answer… and it surprised me because if I wouldn’t have looked I wouldn’t have thought of it. But the Urban Decay Naked 2 Eyeshadow Palette is my favorite cool-toned eyeshadow palette. Hands down.
It has everything and it’s perfection. My pic looks a little gross because the brush lives with the other brushes and I’ve owned mine for awhile… but just look at it.
If you don’t have it and you love cool-tones then GET IT. A must-have!

My Beauty Bunny is Currently Craving: the Kat Von D 10th Anniversary Palette. These bright colors are not something I’d normally wear, but they look fun to play with!
To me, this is more of a neutral palette that leans toward warm than a cool-toned palette (Naked 3 leans a bit neutral-to-warm for me, also). But it’s about skin tones. I have neutral leaning pink skin tones (not quiet cool) and when I wear these palettes, it accentuates my allergy eyes and they appear more red. When I wear true cool tones, my eyes appear whiter than they actually are – so that’s kinda how I judge on me.
I’ve struggled finding cool-toned palettes and UD Naked2 Basics is a good one – although one of the transition shades runs warmer. But Frisk – it’s perfect! I am empty pan on it.
I recently purchased Laura Mercier Eye Artist Palette during the Sephora sale – why didn’t I get this sooner??? A row of cool and warm tones, but the warms run neutral so I can wear those too. It’s my go-to for neutral eyes!
Those LM Artist palettes are always amazing. That entire brand really has some stellar products across the board!
