Okay it time for me to try more indie palettes! Please share your absolute favorite brands and palettes with me so I can add them to my list!

I am surprised you didn’t mention the Denona Bronze palette. You talked about it for years, and it was your absolute favourite.

I haven’t bought eyeshadow palettes in over a year and I love to shop my stash. So your video is so wonderful. It shows what palettes really are loved and not just FOMO 😊

The Nabla Side By Side pallet is my absolute favorite.. I have oily eyelids, and every shadow in the pallet not only applies flawlessly but lasts ALL DAY 🤌

Huda Beauty Rose Quartz is my all time favorite. Got it last yr for Mother's Day.... and I hit pan in so many shades. I didn't realize how much of that color story are shades that compliment my skin tone, undertone, etc until I had it. I lost my mom not long ago. I did a complete overhaul on my palettes. Got rid of a ton I never used and actually bought a bunch of Huda's 9 pan palettes and some of her large ones. Anything mauve, lavender, purple... I got it. I had to go on a no buy.... I realized I was trying to cope with losing my mom with buying makeup. Anyway, love your videos and recs. I bought Jungle Lights, Desert Lights and a J Cat palette bc of your recs. Thanks, Andrea ❤ Klarissa

I haven't really been into big palettes lately, but that little cool toned one from too faced is calling my name.

Honestly, I am truly obsessed with my base and don't really think about eyeshadow much at all. But, I do love looking at palettes!

My favorite palette of all time is the ND glam palette. The top right shade called Transition-I’ve hit pan. 🎉 This is my go to shade when I just need quick color on my lids. Another fave is the YSL quad in 100 - Stora Dolls. For indie brands I would recommend Odens Eye & Juvia’s Place. Odens Eye has beautiful art work and presentation. The Juvia’s Place items I have in my collection are so nicely pigmented and very affordable. ❤ Great video Andrea! 👏

One of the reasons why I love Andreas channel is because she’s just honest with her ranking reviews.😊 Also, you are rocking that shimmery eyeshadow today! 💕💜

I loved the Huda color stories but couldn't live with the fallout. Fortunately, Unearthly's Spring Magic is a stellar replacement for Mercury Retrograde. Highly recommend.

I could not believe it when you mentioned exchanging the 2 shades in the I need a nude palette with 2 shades from the glam palette because I did exactly that with those same 2 shades … I exchanged them with blend and smoke from glam it is now my favorite everyday palette of all time , my favorite evening palette of all time is still midi glam, favorite berry/warm purple palette is still retro, my favorite for warm tones on me is still bronze, and my favorite for greens is a either retro glam or yucca depending if I want warm or cool greens, my favorite all mattes palette on me is the new makeup by Mario neutrals palette

I don't really wear makeup anymore. I do miss it though! When I did wear it, it was for going out, which I used to do quite a lot before covid XD. So, for years all I used was The Balm's Nude 'Tude! Ancient , I know lol. But dang I loved it. Neutral and goes from white and light beige all the way to black and dark brown. A couple pinks, and a bronze that edged towards khaki green. I came close to hitting pan on a lot of shades. My go-to was just using the deep matte burgundy. I'd put tape on my outer eyes to make a sharp wing-line basically up to the end of my brow. I'd use my finger to cover my lid and then messily stamp/smudge along the tape. Made me feel like a real rock n roll boss haha.

Those flower beauty eyeshadows are so amazing. I have desert lights and the jungle lights . Very foil and pretty! I need that Patrick Ta palette. You did an awesome job showing us the good stuff. I’m obsessed with eyeshadows! TFS as always

I could never get enough of ND My Dream! I'm wearing I Need A Nude today and love Born This Way as well. I Wish Too Faced would have gone with a full sized cool Nutral pallet instead of the mini, I would have definitely bought that for sure. I also am hoping for a purple wearable purple color story from a good brand. Would be so fun!!!

I LOVE the ND mini retro palette!

I finally bit the bullet and bought the Yucca palette! But, I'm a blonde with blue eyes. I don't know how to use it for my coloring!

Drugstore suggestion here: Pacifica, the BIG PALETTE with the animal theme. Ive hit pan on many shades. There are 3 creams. Shimmers and mattes. Ive had this for almost 4 yrs, colors are the same. I cant rave enough. In canada its at shoppers for $30

The only palette I've ever had grow mold was melt cosmetics Gemini palette, the green palette. I was shocked.

The adept cosmetics shimmers are amazing!

I’ve learned I can’t do cool tones at all. Orangey browns are my jam

Loved this video. Please do one on Charlotte Tilbury eyeshadows.

Love all your picks. Thanks for sharing ❤

BTW, the Two-Faced Sunset Stripped palette is on sale right now, it’s beautiful! Same formula as the original.😊

Finally someone shares the best of the best pallets..So helpful and enjoyed the video

I just recently bought the ND Mini My Dream & Starlette 5-pans and I LOVE them! I had never gotten anything from the brand before and I’m so impressed! I also love my one Oden’s Eye palette because the shimmers are so special! I definitely want to try more from the brand.

I love these type of videos. 😊

Love these types of videos

I really love this videos❤ so happy to see some of my palettes on this list, thank for your videos

I haven’t tried Huda shadows but you make them sound amazing, I love that they are buildable and blendable and not totally saturated from the get go-I’ve been obsessed with creating gradient looks lately, so seamless

Those were some beautiful palletes!

No Pat McGrath, ABH, Viseart, Charlotte Tilbury under your top palettes. I would love to hear your opinion to this brands. Maybe we need a brand ranking (concearning palettes) or a Top 20 of your favourites 😉.

ND I need a nude..is my favourite palette as well...amazing quality and shades..perfect ❤

Love this video, love your recommendations. Take care and stay safe. ❤❤❤❤❤

Thank you for sharing ❤

Such an amazing video! Thank you Andréa ❤❤❤ love your exeshadow videos!

The only palette I have from about 2017 forward that has gone off is the UD Born to Run. It was my favorite pack light travel palette.

Great choices Andrea...🌹❤Your eyes always look so beautiful!

Hey Andrea! I am so excited to see ND I need a nude pallete as your number 1! I just rewatched your full review on it when it first came out, and I finally purchased it 🙌 It'll be at the house by Friday! It got the best of me, and I so excited to try it 😊

This was a fun review! My fav out of what I own is Patrick Ta II. I'm just starting to try ND and love the formula in the mini's. I'm also getting into indie brands! :)

Outstanding

Fav brands are Blend Bunny the Lure palette and Glamlite!

Loved the video Andrea! You always look so beautiful, professional and polished! I love that you didn't edit out the mistakes because it reminds me I'm not the only one with brain glitches, LOL. It's definitely understandable with two little ones in your home

This Taupe Palette from Colourpop is my favorite

This is amazing! Thank you! I agree with so much, especially your #1 :)

Mel Thompson’s palette has my ❤. I use it once a week and think of her often.

That Too Faced palettes mattes are amazing❤

Have you ever thought of blonde highlights?? Your hair is gorgeous!! You’re making me want that TF nude palette!! ❤

Love rankings!

Glaminatrix has some of the BEST single shimmer and duochromes EVER!! You would not be disappointed

Yucca is my all time favorite, beautiful... top quality.

Happy Wednesday Everyone

I got a random 20% off your purchase at Sephora a few months ago and went ahead and splurged on the I Need A Nude palette ❤️ also I can’t believe that ND Bronze and Glam finally got dethroned from your channel lollll it’s exciting! I haven’t been wearing much eyeshadow lately but if I do, I’m reaching for kbeauty!

I love the That's Taupe pallet. I used that one and Urban Decay's Wild West pallet so much. I typically go for bronzer in the crease nowadays. Lazy eyeshadow look.

I love Natasha Denona palettes, my faves are the glam and my dream, the formula of ND is always amazing.

So funny that in the ND I need a nude, you pointed out the two shadows you would remove and for me, these are the two that anchor the palette and makes it wearable for me!

My absolute favorite has been Tarte Clay play palette, the first one. ❤

lunar beauty nude prism is a must have!!

Adept cosmetics, odens eye, ensley reign!!!

I literally can't just pick one so here goes... ABH sultry, Huda nude light, rose quartz and pretty grunge, CP pretty guardian and petals en pointe, ND mini and midi retro and pat McGrath mothership 1... I'm sure I forgot some

I dropped my Huda Mercury retrograde palette a month ago, it shattered and my heart did to. I adored that one and cant get it anymore 😪 Love this video, all great palettes 😊

Nomad, Oden's Eye, and Alter Ego.

I've quickly fallen in love with Natasha palettes, the yucca palette is one of my favorites. I'm more of a bright shadow girlie (think urban decay electric palette) but i picked up the i need a nude palette on sale at ulta and I'm so glad i did, it's become one of my most used palettes

I love Going Coconuts and ND I need a Nude. I do have a back up of Going Coconuts. I swatched the shades in both palettes and they are very similar. My favorite palette is Bella Beaute Bar Basic Witch.

Im not really into neutral eyeshadows but if i did buy one from all the ones you mentioned, the ND nude palette is the most interesting to me. The shimmers look special.

The palettes I'm using most lately are: UD Wild West UD Wild Greens Oden's Eye Jewels & Gems ND Mini Retro ND Glam Morphe Multi Effects (the Taupe/Neutral one)

The I Love You a Latte palette is one of my all time favorites too. It's so useful. Danessa Myricks Groundwork Blooming Romance is quickly becoming one of my favorites. Unearthly Cosmetics and Glamlite palettes are top notch, as well as Ace Beauté.

@Andrea Matillano please share your recommendation on a palette that practically dupes the Morphe Gilded Desert palette that's a bit smaller & has a few less orangey tones. I like warmer tones on my eyes, just not straight up BOLD orange on my eyes.

Ny favorite eyeshadow palette is still Natasha Denona Biba. I do love her I Need a Nude palette too it is closing in on Biba! This was a fun video, thanks so much!

My favorite indie companies is nomad and odens eye, my favorite from nomad: Hudson valley, orient express, and fetes de Provence ( not sure if they still have them), but they have 4 new pallets that gorgeous, one is Irish themed, which you will love. Odens eye: solmane 2, Alva (neutral shades), jewels and gems, stone and rock, planet spirit, sea talk (my fav), and saga of freja chapter 2: cat with golden carriage. They also have shimmer, matte, and duochrome singles, Angelica nyqvist does shade swatches on all of them, so u can see what they look like.

Great Video Andrea Matillano

I have all but 2 of these, yet I haven't worn much eyeshadow since 2022. On occasion I will wear a matte in the crease + a glitter topper, very lightly tapped on. For that reason, my top 5 are: Mario Ethereal, Mario Matte, Patrick Ta 2 and 3, ND INAN.

I like your eyeshadow. Could you do a video on it?

Bella Beaute Bar mattes are incredible, adept cosmetics makes my favorite formula, both mattes and shimmers look so flattering on the eye! Edit: my favorite palettes are the 15 pan color ways. I have all of them and use them equally, but if you twist my arm, the arrow inspired is my “favorite”

I took both the that’s taupe and going coconuts palettes and combined them into one with my fav shades in the going coconuts palette and put the extras in taupe palette. I love it lol both palettes are great on their own too though

Have you tried the new sigma cool tone one ??

Those palettes from Flower Beauty are some of my very favorites. I have all four. I always wondered why more people didn’t talk about them. I feel like those shimmers definitely out preform my high end ones. 🤩 They are amazing and worth every penny of the $20 price. I am very interested in switching a couple colors in my Natasha Denona palettes, I was wondering if you could tell me how to do that or may show a short tutorial? I absolutely love your videos, my husband can recognize your voice even while watching t.v. He knows not to bother me for atleast the next 1/2 hour. 😂 Ill even watch some multiple time and take notes. Thank you for taking time out of your “family time” to make such wonderful and well researched videos 💕

Once I tried Oden’s Eye I realized that I never actually knew what good eyeshadow was. I have hundreds of palettes & I don’t think any of them compare.

Heaven on Earth and Tropicolor by Sydney Grace are beautiful and I love using them together. ABH mini Sultry is lovely. I've been enjoying cool toned looks more. I kind of wish I owned the full sized palette when it launched. It is just so good. Hearing tour take on the cool toned Too Faced palette makes me want to try it. I was unimpressed when I swatched the shimmers but I do enjoy cool tones more. Maybe I'll give the formula a shot. I do love TF's matte formula. I bought the Warlock palette by Fantasy Cosmetica for the greens and I love them. I did swap out the pinks with some singles but I am happy to own the packaging and the shadows do perform well. I love Simmering and Sparkling by Lorac. They're great little companion palettes. I have historically loved Sigma's palettes too. I feel out of love with them for a bit but pulling the palettes out I feel rekindled my excitement to play with them. I think it's partially because I had to trash a few of my 14 pan palettes. Sigma's formula goes off for me within about 2 years. I do kind of want the Cool Neutrals palette, some of the bite size palettes and I want to repurchase the New Mod palette. Noctilucent is a highlighter palette by Blend Bunny that I love to use on my eyes to add some sparkle, shift and dimension. I love it and it may be one of the most used products in my collection. I repurchased Defiance by Auric Cosmetics. I adore the sparkle in this shade. I decjdedto give Ego a shot and I'm gald I did. I love the bright silver sparkle I get by topping the powder over the cream. Temper is a shade that I only like sometimes. It might have been when I had a tan but my memory is a bit fuzzy. I loved ut when I first got it and then I didn't. The Christmas shades from a couple years ago are kind of meh in comparison to the main line. I didn't love the tone of the berry one. I don't love olive tones on me and I knew the cream in Entice is just that but it can be a bit tricky to work with and I expected more from the sparkle. I actually had to remove hard pan from ig because it was performing so poorly. I also expected the topper to be more green toned in sparkle and it's really more of a dirty gold.

If id redesign the I need a nude palette id take out a bunch of the shimmers and put in more unique nude colors like a nude green and a nude blue

What was your eyeshadow you’re wearing in this video? Can you please link the currently wearing shadows in description box?❤😊

The two shades you would take out from the INAN are my favorite shades in the palette 😭

My most used palettes are Pat McGrath Devine Rose, Natasha Denona Midi Retro and Dior Cool Neutrals. Unfortunately the Dior palette was discontinued and I have used it pretty much up. 😞 I do really enjoy my Sydney Grace Tiny Marvels palette too.

The two mattes you want out of the I need a nude palette save it for me haha

Hi. I'm late! We had 4 trees removed and the rest trimmed today. It was a long day. I am here for it now!❌️⭕️

The makeup by Mario matte palettes are my fave or ND glam or bronze.

I just got the ND Retro Glam palette and I love it. Probably an unpopular opinion. But I loved the color story of Urban Decay Wild Greens and Retro Glam is a better version of that. I also am liking Colorpop Dawn to Dusk and sorta testing out What’s Up Beauty Dragon 🐉 palette. But I love my Retro Glam. I also need to try my One Size Wicked palette. Not sure about that one but I like the green side and I ❤❤❤❤❤ Wicked. You should review it!!!!!

Beauty Bay Nude, the big one. Monochromes and nudes in one place. I have some other smaller ones for travel, but this one is the GOAT.

Is it best to take the palettes out of the box to preserve the life or is it OK to keep in the box? Please advise.

What is the name of the Elf quad?

Too Faced is my favorite.

Eyeshadow are my weakness😂

I love anything Natasha Denona. Lately my go to is the Patrick Ta Major Dimensions iii

Dominique transition palette

Tom ford nude quad and makeup by Mario original Mate pallet

UD x Gwen Stefani remains my all time favorite.

The Biba Palette ist my favorite Palette.

Powder products can last a very long time if you don’t stick your fingers in them and if you use clean brushes. Brandy’s shelf live’ main purpose is to make us buy more, more often.

I've come to realise that everytime I wear a Colourpop palette, the showdow transfers onto my contact lenses. I don't get this with other brands.

Did Patrick Ta ever fix that issue they were having with palettes getting moldy well before the expiry date? I like the look of the palettes but I have held off on buying them for that reason

Sydney Grace is my favorite indie brand but adept and sigma are good also.
