When it comes to versatility, ease and convenience, you just can’t go wrong with an eye makeup palette. Making it quick and easy to create a variety of different eye looks, from neutral to smoky, eye palettes are the lazy girl’s best beauty friends.
You’ll know that Urban Decay, Chanel and Charlotte Tilbury make some of the best eyeshadow palettes in the business, especially when it comes to pigmentation, colour pay-off and highly wearable shades. But if you want to experiment with new colours or just indulge in a new palette without the hefty price tag, you’re in luck: we’ve rounded up 5 of our favourites budget eye palettes!
MUA are well-known for their face and cheek palettes, but they’ve got you covered in the eyeshadow department too. They offer a hugely diverse range of budget palettes with each retailing at an average of £4, meaning you’re free to experiment to your heart’s content! Our favourites? The Undress Me Too palette, which is an almost shade-for-shade dupe of the famous Urban Decay Naked palettes. We also love the Poptastic Palette, which features a selection of vibrant, candyfloss shades perfect for a statement evening eye. Boots brand Seventeen are the leader in affordable drugstore makeup, and often offer on-trend beauty buys – think liquid highlights and contouring palettes – at a fraction of the price of their designer counterparts. The new Easy on the Eye palettes are no exception. They come in two options, The Big Smoke – a mixture of sultry pinks, purples and greys – and Birthday Suit – which includes gorgeously shimmery coppers and browns. Each palette contains a total of 12 eyeshadows, which also includes metallic creams and an eye primer to help your look last longer. The best part? The palettes are available for just £7.99 from Boots. H&M released their new beauty range this autumn, and we’re loving it already. Offering face, nails, lip and eye products, it’s also the budget-conscious girl’s best friend! Within the new range you’ll find four eye shadow palettes: Smoky Essentials, Twilight and Rose, Smoky Nudes and Ready, Set, Glow. Each offers nine complementary shades handpicked by H&M’s master makeup artists. Whether you prefer matte or shimmer, you’ll find the perfect shadow here. Pick yours up for just £9.99. The Colour Riche palettes from L’Oreal are among our favourites here at StyleNest for many reasons, but mainly due to the amazing pigmentation these shadows offer. Each palette comprises ten highly wearable and combinable shades, ranging from angelic white shimmer to sultry greys and purples. 1001 eye makeup looks are suddenly available at your fingertips – for just £14.99! We always turn to Collection when we need high quality beauty products at a price which makes your jaw drop – for all the right reasons! The Collection eye palettes are particularly impressive and have earnt themselves a permanent place in the beauty arsenal of some of the top beauty bloggers and vloggers in the industry. The Collection Eyes Uncovered palette is the ultimate in ease and versatility. Its six shades allow you to create the perfect nude, everyday eye – and for just £3.99, who could complain?
