12 Eyeshadow Palettes With ACTUALLY GOOD Color Stories

[@Rowan.Evander]

Fantasy Cosmetica just...owns my entire wallet at this point. I've loved everything they've put out so far: the theming, the colors, the quality. Non-stop bangers. 💙

[@ktscreativeescape]

Yup they are my current favorite indy brand

[@lesanimaux4416]

For me, the ABH Nouveau gives me all the looks, every day. I reach for it daily and the quality is **chef's kiss** Chic? Of course! Grunge? Totally! Smokey? Sure! Light and pink? Absolutely! No time? Just swipe on a shade and you're good to go. I have severe dents in this palette and that never happens.

[@TheBreaker996]

Yes! There is green, there is pink and that lilac color? So unique and so fun to play with! I wish there was like a forest green, maybe muted then it would be 100% die for. Now it's like 90% 😂

[@lesanimaux4416]

@@TheBreaker996 Yes! I never expected to love Wisteria as much as I do.

[@ariel3599]

I bought the Solmåne II palette after watching your reviews and it was actually even BETTER in person. It 100% looks like a sunset palette and I fell in love instantly, definetly worth all the hype it got (and still gets).

💚this Green "Siren Eye" Look🍏💯... Green Eyeshadow Palettes are my new obsession🌴 Started with Melt's Gemini palette-grungy greens🖌☘Elf's Amazing eyeshadow Formula- $3.00 Bite Size Palettes "Hot Jalapeno", "Chocolate Mint" & "Mint to Be" are surprisingly great lil' Green palettes! -Juvia's Place Rebel Army's 4 pan mix of Fab greens is a Yes.

[@kittycloud6693]

I thought the eyeshadow you had on was the ND mini pastel palette. Now that I know it's the serenity palette I guess those two palettes are similar.

[@jaymiecyrus7172]

I thought the exact same thing.

[@kimberlyoldschool]

Discovering BlendBunny Cosmetics was probably the high point of 2022 for me 😊 I bought All Done Up and I was HOOKED, both on quality and having a full range of so many hues (yes I am more of a neutrals lover). I’d put Leather and Lace from Unearthly Cosmetics in the same category - shimmer light to very dark shades in three different hues. Their palettes are coming back, too!

[@sinswept]

I went into a drugstore in the UK this weekend and nearly fell over when I found a BH Cosmetics gondola! They had the Passion in Paris, but only the tester left as it had sold out... I will now be stalking them until they restock.

[@zitapuskas2772]

This is a really creative video idea! I purchased the ND Zendo palette not so long ago, and I was surprised at how many different possible looks I can create with it. For me, it is a really versatile palette.

[@AngelicaNyqvist]

I liked the Zendo too :D

[@ktscreativeescape]

I do not get the hate people have for Zendo, I love it. Yeah the shimmers aren’t crazy but I have so many topper shades from other brands or palettes if I feel it necessary

[@brendatorres1072]

You have such a good eye for color stories, I remember waaay back in the day you did the color stories you liked with your singles and me thinking whatever palette she ever releases I will 100% buy (which I have) I am sooo excited for your brand 😍

[@stephanietorres5679]

The Scooby-Doo doo green...palette is my favorite!!

[@bethanybez]

Meet Me in the Underworld by Lois Cosmetics is still the palette whose color story owns my heart the most

[@erinsherbs2980]

I love that Scooby DU palette I made cool looks with that palette the color story is beautiful I love that palette I have so many eye shadow palettes but I have been reaching for it a lot. Have a great day Angie.

[@jennawar13]

I do love the kaleidos club nebula but your collab aside the flower punk is also so cool from them! I felt like the shroud it’s freakin bats was game changing at the time. What a legendary color story! I love that palette I don’t have the lore palette but my unearthly fairy frolic is another favorite color story

[@MoonlitSunflower]

Palettes with interesting color stories in my collection: Sigma Alice in Wonderland (I think it's the gold and silver in this palette that does it for me so much. Being able to change an eye look up with either one adds so much variety.) Sigma Cinderella (I love the neutrals on the left side of the palette. My heart beats for the warm purple in this palette, and the baby blue shimmer is pretty unique to my collection. I've been getting more out of the other shades by being more willing to use a glitter glue.) Sigma New Mod (Berries done in a way I actually like. I am not a huge berry fan, and I love this palette.) Sigma Warm Wishes (The gold in this palette and the cool toned shimmer are gorgeous and they make the palette for me. The burgandy matte adds an interesting twist to the neutrals.) The Gilded Glamour duo by Tarte that was release this winter were so well done. Chocolate Martini and Dirty Martini by Glamlite and very well balanced too. The shimmers are fabulous. The mattes are workable with primer. I was really put off by their quality for a while without using a primer. These 2 palettes though have saved me so much money over the last year though. So often if a new palette release catches my eye, these 2 palettes can do what I'm so attracted to in 1 new palette. Palettes on my wishlist that I think are unique: Rogue by Fantasy Cosmetica. I kind of want the entire line because I play D&D but this is the one I am most attracted to. Makes sense. I love purple and green shadows. An Knook's collab with Sigma. I think its the mix of warm and cool tones. The option to go with silver and / or gold. The purple blue row is what makes it so hard to pass this one up but the warm half of the palette is gorgeous too. I have most of what is offered in other Sigma palettes and love it... but it makes me pretty sure I wont hate this palette. I just love Sigma. The lured palette by Blend Bunny. This feels like the perfect green, blue and purple palette and there is some pink sprinkl in too. I liked Mikayla's green, blue and purple palette but I felt it didn't go light enough. Now that I've learned what a hot mess she is I'm glad I passed on it. But lured, interesting color combo with a good variety in depth and what appear to be gorgeous shimmers.

[@iokneafsey8039]

Passion in Paris is my fave pallet of all time. I have actually decluttered a bunch of pallets because this is is my love xx

[@makeup_obsessed13]

I own several of these and really enjoy them all. Oden's Eye, Adept, Blend Bunny....just got the Rogue from Fantasy Cosmetica and have really been loving that one too. Great choices here!

[@DarkFire1536]

I think the Club Nebula, Serenity and Oden's Eye Christmas palettes are some of the most interesting color stories I have in my collection. I also really like The Escape Pod from Kaleidos, Ethereal from Profusion, along with the 80's and 90's palettes from BH Cosmetics. I don't own these two palettes, but I keep going back to look at the site to see the Jamrock 2 Mattes and the Vigorously palettes from Playing in Makeup by Yolondo.

[@carlycompositions2323]

One of the favorite color stories is the nocturnal palette by glaminatrix ! It's so interesting and beautiful and a great way to explore some colour

[@lauralarsen97]

Just got home from work, and immediately clicked on the video 😅 I cooked some pasta and ate it while watching the video ❤❤❤ I am a neutral lover but I also do enjoy colours and I am not scared of colours. Also huge congrats on your new brand Singe beauty 🎉🎉🎉 I can’t wait to get the brushes ❤❤❤

[@Chxtxllx]

I really hope the trick roar treat comes back I really love that colour story and wished i had managed to get my hands on it then but it wasnt in the budget

[@thefreevolous]

So grateful that you’ve introduced me to Oden’s Eye and Cosmic Brushes. For sure amazing formulas and interesting colour stories - I have to control myself or I’d go into collectors mode 😅 One of my favourite colour stories was your Hela Palette with Oden’s Eye, for sure. It can go from spring to summer to fall to winter, just by combining the shades differently. Amazing job with that one.

[@loriloretta7639]

the one exception to the ND never discontinued thread, the GOLD palette, I can not understand why she'd discontinue that one!!! If you know where I can get one, shout it out! Thx ya'll! Great vids too! Love the channel thx Angeschka!

[@sallyhumphrys7955]

Heh, came to say the same thing!

[@makeupmaven3463]

I have every palette from Blend Bunny and adore all of them, but I maintain that she really did something with the Surge palette. She gave us a layout and color story we had not yet seen and even though her shimmers have since improved immensely (and were fine to begin with!) I still reach for that palette so often because it inspires me! I also have got to give credit to the Glamlite x Chucky palette that just launched around Valentine's Day because it was a cool toned grungy dream. The Bad Witch Club from Give Me Glow remains one of my favorite palettes in my considerably large collection as well; and I don't have a single Odens Eye palette (yours included!) that I do not love; but I could not put down their Merry Christmas palette for like two months! For Bella Beaute Bar it has to be the Euphoric Dreams (which is in a similar vein to the Blend Bunny Lure but smaller and more purples/shimmers). Just soooo many great Indie palettes to love! 🎉

[@kerriwright4593]

I love the rogue palette. It's the first fantasy cosmetica palette I tried and I'm hooked lol. It's a fantastic color story for me and the shimmers are very special.

[@abidavies154]

I would add the beauty bay wilderness palette and the abh nouveau palette

[@anikajoy5739]

That top looks STUNNING on you!!

[@chrissievee76]

Cosmic Brushes is on my list for this year. I made a goal to try twelve new to me brands this year, averaging one per month. Singe is also on my list! Making my order today or tomorrow if they’re still available!

[@stephanietorres5679]

You are right about nomad. I do not thinkI have that palette but I have another one which is colorful!!

[@The3GMom]

Love your Hela palette, it screams SPRING to me. Using it this week!

[@SaraReffler]

Me watching this video: Oh, I have that palette. Oh, i have that one too. Apparently you and I have similar tastes when it comes to bright colors! 😅 Some of my other favorites: I LOVE the ColourPop Baroque palette and I don't think it got anywhere near enough hype. It's a grungy gray, blue, purple, peach palette. The color story is such an interesting cool tone almost sunset vibes, and it has some really deep shades if you want to go bold or smokey. The ND Circo Loco palette is another true rainbow palette, but it leans heavily into the blues, purples, and blurples, so you can pair those with pretty much any other shade for something multi-toned, or pretty much pair any matte with any shimmer for a 2-tone look. The Juvia's Place Saharan palette is an oldie but goody, and my dream warm, sunrise-y vibes. But I love that there's a dark greeny black, a green-toned gold, and the matte black. 😍 Last but not least, your Hela palette. I'm sure I don't have to tell you why, but that grungy green just speaks to my SOUL, double-side and river are just such great shades, and I love that you can go softer pastel, neutral, heavy on the green, or bright with the pinks. Just more of that, please!!

Same for me. Not a huge fan but I bought it and still try to make it work.

I would absolutely do the eye look you did for this video; it is stunning.

[@NaharaVensar]

I think the Paris BH palette, Giant Wolves, the holiday palettes from Oden's Eye and Club Nebula from Kaleidos are my most unique color stories in my collection.

[@rachelgrace2001]

You got me hooked on Oden’s Eye cosmetics. Just spent $200 on their website 😅

[@samantharuber9498]

Holy moly! I watched this video on Monday and it reminded me to check on that fantasy cosmetics palette to see if it and the bard were in stock. They were so I ordered them with your code Monday and they have arrived today (Wednesday)! 😮I can’t wait to try them! 😍

[@lizlushouslife]

I’ve been falling in love with the Passion in Paris palette all over this year. So many looks, such great pigmentation and blendability 😍

[@helloeah2121]

I have been on the fence about In The Springs from Colourpop but knowing how much you love it decided to bite the bullet. And guess what!! As of today (3/27/23) it’s half off! Grabbed the new Legend of Korra palette while I was at it. 😊

[@tracypdvm]

I am someone who’s more comfortable with cool neutrals but you’ve inspired me to branch out and wow, do I love the Rogue and Druid palettes from Fantasy Cosmetica! So easy to find stunning combos! Kaleidos Astro Pink is another of my faves. Their formula looks great on mature eyes and is so easy to work with! And vegan too! I have a carmine allergy so the bigger brands are usually off limits anyway. Love indie! Time for me to try Ace and Blend Bunny.

[@CindyJazmine18]

I would love to try the one don't know the name of the brand but it's the one you showed with the sun on it I think it's beautiful also I wanted to say congrats on your new brand I can't wait to receive my brushes in the mail 💕💕

[@Lora-Lynn]

🧡🧡🧡 Looking forward to receiving my Singe Beauty package!

[@katecoolidge411]

I love the Trick Roar Treat palette. I think that is one of my favorites of this past year. Six pans can be hard to have an interesting color story but they nailed it and I can't wait for them to do another 6 pan. I also thought the Dark Fantasy palette this year was a great color story. It has so many different colors that seem to all work and can make so many different types of looks.

[@margaritas8375]

For me the most exciting color stories in my collection are: - Provence by Nomad - Tribe by Julia's Place - Ultimate Utopia by Nyx (the big one) - New mood by Beauty Bay

[@insomkneeac]

The colourpop palette seems almost identical to give me glow summer vibes palette

Solmane II has become my last attempt at blues 😅got it after the recent restock, and I was, like, listen, these blues are different from all other ones you've tried before, give it a shot. confirmed that blues don't mesh with my colouring well and I have to jump through way too many hoops to make them work for me. granted, the darkest blue in this palette suits me best out of all blues I've tried, and all of the shades are unique enough for my collection, so I'm still happy I got it

I really love Oden's eye color stories ❤. We're still crying for the Christmas collection, I think those have been the most interesting palette of all time. And your palette with Kaleidos, Club Nebula 😍, bc that one looked like a dream come true to me 😅. You have a point about colourpop collections, they make great things in general but people just get the hype for the collabs. Well, I know about a collab that actually didn't get any hype, even the color stories looked nice, and that was the NBA collection. I think they're still in the webpage, and have been on sale since forever but nobody talks about it. It would be so nice to see a video with hidden gems of Colourpop!

[@leaj3799]

Hi Angie, I know you don’t want to toot your own horn for a palette that is no longer available but I want to give a shout out to the color story in your Hela palette. By coincidence (or maybe because it’s a palette that identify with spring and I desperately want the warmer weather to arrive because I’m sick of watching snow and wintry mix here in the Chicago area) I have used the Hela palette in the past 2 days and have gotten 2 wildly different yet beautiful looks from it. A year later and it is still a favorite so not only do I trust your opinion on good color stories and good quality shadows, I know you can walk the talk. Thanks for the recommendations in this video. Hope all is well.

Unfortunately, I didn't love their palettes either. I've kept them around because of the duo chromes and some unique shades. I can make them work but... I'd prefer to not have to work so hard for my makeup to work. And so many of the shimmers hard pan.
