MY 10 FAVORITE INDIE NEUTRAL PALETTES

[@alexandreaturcot8921]

Anything about eyeshadow and eyeshadow palettes is fun for me!

[@sarahallegra6239]

Yes, I’d love to see a half and half palette round up! This was great!

[@jslilimauve]

I wish SG did not discontinue Coffee Talk palette, Id have loved to have it but oh well :(

[@AmyLovesMakeup]

I know that one broke my heart 🥲

[@maureentakach3065]

Sydney Grace is such a great Indy brand. I have Loves Journey, California, and Coffee Talk. I have a lot of their singles, too.

[@TracyD2]

I really should try more of them. Especially cause I love lighter shimmers more than super shiny ones.

[@WendyandBradPitt]

They also have excellent customer service. I ordered from them last year and one of the shadows in the palette arrived broken. I contacted them about it. They immediately responded and said they would send out a replacement shadow. When it arrived, they had also included a couple free individual shadows.

I am not a neutral gal, but the Dollhouse palette is one of my favorite palettes of all time!

[@daniellezadora7637]

I would love to see this be a regular thing! ❤

[@tdsollog]

The Glamlite Hershey CnC palette is fantastic.

[@megdvs21]

Love’s journey is probably going to be my next palette purchase when they do their Christmas in July sale this year 😀

[@AmyLovesMakeup]

You can’t beat purchasing it during Christmas in July! ☺️

[@blendofdays]

As someone who is (or was) a mostly bright rainbow colorful lover, I adore Sydney grace! I bought the temptalia palettes & fell in love! I now own six sg palettes & a dozen singles. Like you said, they make some of the best metallic, satin & shimmers in the game! When I want something that I know will look pretty without being completely over the top, I reach for sg!

[@alexandreaturcot8921]

Great choices! I am learning to really appreciate my neutral palettes. Especially my Sydney Grace, whom I purchased from for the 1st time this past summer. The Melt "Brunet" palette is perfect to use with my single shifty shades.❤

[@susanlynn5159]

Edit : Just went to SG IG and saw the new palette!!!! 😍🥰😻 I’m psyched for the upcoming Sydney Grace release!!!

[@alex_gallo_]

I would love to see what are your picks for neutral/colourful palettes. I’m colour lover but I keep lying to myself that I would love full on neutral palette but I always forget about them after a while, so obviously they are not for me 😅 it would be really helpful. I was sceptical about Xenon palette at first but I have to admit it’s actualy not as bad colourstory as I thought it was. (It certainly isn’t palette for me with my olive undertone… no one is waiting for 90’s return) BUT I finaly forced myself to use greys and silvers I already own and it was actualy fun New Year’s look. There are even few shades from Xenon that look appealing and I would love to try. Who would have thought… 😂 up until 2023 I avoided silvers/greys like a plague and I literaly entered 2024 as grey loving hypocrite. Thanks for this video ❤

[@AmyLovesMakeup]

Lmao this happened to me too I used to hate cool toned eyeshadows and now I love them. We can be grey hypocrites together ❤️

[@marieve5394]

Yes for a part 2!

[@nicoleraps4272]

I love Glaminatrix palettes, their formulas are amazing. I have been looking at blend bunny and haven't committed yet. ND is a fave, easy formulas to blend and love the reliability and colour story in my dream and retro, they have neutrals in there with pinks and berries. I has the Orgy matt palette, honestly a great array of neutrals. Wouldn't mind the new viseart praline quad.

[@TracyD2]

The melt brunet matches your hair perfectly.

[@ashleymyers2779]

Please give us your favorite palettes. I am always on the hunt for more green palettes! Pastels too!

[@AmyLovesMakeup]

Will do!!☺️

[@KB0101]

My two favorite "neutral" palettes from Unearthly are Not Normal and Leather and Lace. While they do have some color in them, you can get great neutral looks.

[@AmyLovesMakeup]

I ordered not normal on preorder and I can’t wait for it to get here!!

[@rabbiroz3806]

LOVE your picks. I'd definitely put ND Glam in the mix. Trying to think what other neutral palettes I love. There are truly so many good ones. Yes, it would be fun to see your favorites - maybe neutrals with color, greens, purples.. . .It's been awhile since you did those videos! So happy you are back!

[@AmyLovesMakeup]

ND Glam just didn’t work out for me but I can see why many others love it! And thank you for your feedback ☺️❤️

[@catherinelynnfraser2001]

I love neutral palettes. Sydney Grace does an amazing job of the basics. I do live Blend Bunny as well. Sigma has some amazing neutral options as well. I love BYOP of special shades from Clionadh spicy neutrals. It easily turns any neutral palette up a notch. Glaminatrix offers so many beautiful singles.

[@AmyLovesMakeup]

I love the name spicy neutrals. Makes me want to pull out my Clionadh singles 🥰

[@cjaneg97]

Ooooh I love that palette storage 💜 I use the Ikea Kallax. I think bookshelves are the way to go.

[@kittykatkountry1317]

I just got the Minka palette n lightly watched it on my mom n it packed a punch

[@AmyLovesMakeup]

It really does!

[@inespenella1376]

Was looking for a video like this! Im trying to get my sister into indie eyeshadow but she's a neutral girlie

[@AmyLovesMakeup]

Ahh I hope this helps!!

[@laurahall4275]

Minka is on the top of my wishlist. Keeping g an eye out on Mercari cause it’s too pricey for my budget.

[@JorgeGarcia-cj3nc]

Beautiful 😍😍😍 I love it ❣️❣️

[@katecoolidge411]

I would love to see a video with neutral mix with colorful palette video. That is my favorite type of palettes so seeing your list would be amazing

[@katiebrunner4376]

Omg I can’t with the xenon palette hahaha I don’t love cool colors at all on me like that

[@angiec.874]

I love that you make this video. Probably my most favorite neutral eyeshadow palette that I feel it’s very special and from a small Indy brand is the everyday sparkle palette by ladybug glow. That palette is amazing! All of the shimmers in that pallet are neutral-ish, but super special in my opinion and all of the mats are neutral, which is perfect, because it lets the shimmers pop, and be the star of the show! It’s such an amazing palette!

[@AmyLovesMakeup]

Huh I haven’t heard of that brand I’ll have to check them out!

[@RAINtears91]

my fav is by far the nearly natural from glaminatrix :D, all done up is newer in my collection but i think it will become a fave too.

[@hildegerdhaugen7864]

I can only hope Sydney Grace brings back the Coffee Talk palettes.

[@aylalavigne5045]

Thank you for sharing, love all the brands you mentioned, besides glamlite I have multiple palettes from all the other brands you shared :) PLEASE link the bookshelf, looks like perfect storage for my eyeshadow palettes!!!

It wasn’t intellectually difficult to put together but it was physically hard because instead of tools it was like putting a puzzle together.

[@ashleymyers2779]

Hey Amy, do you ever have issues with indie shimmers creasing really bad even with eyeprimer? This is something I have struggle with across many brands: Cosmic Brushes, Unearthly, Glamlite, etc. I don't know what I can do to fix this or if I'm doing something wrong, I don't know what it is :( I love indie eyeshadows, but I have stopped buying from a lot of companies, except Oden's Eye, because they are one of the few I don't have that issue with. If anyone else has recommendations or can help me, I welcome the input! Thanks!

[@ashleymyers2779]

I've hesistated buying from Adept because I don't know if I will have the same problem

[@AmyLovesMakeup]

If I’m using eye primer I pretty much never have issues with shimmers creasing. Have you tried adding in glitter primer?

[@janelee4232]

I would love to know where you got the bookcase from what a great idea!

[@nicolefraley7404]

i would looove a "part 2" video of this

[@arianarianariana]

Have you tried the Danessa Myricks Groundwork palette?

[@AmyLovesMakeup]

I have not but it looks cute!

[@pinkTonya24]

I am shocked that Sydney Grace decided to discontinue their Coffee Talk palette. As much as you rave about it, I figured they would keep it around just for your fans 😂

[@AmyLovesMakeup]

Haha I wish I had that power 🤣🤣

[@kristentrep5038]

Amy, how often are you doing your makeup in the car? Lolol! I know you didn’t mean while you were driving! Hahaha! But when you said it.., I pictured you brushing on some shadow at each stop light!

[@AmyLovesMakeup]

Haha no never if I’m driving but every time my partner and I go anywhere he drives and I end up doing my makeup in the car to save getting ready time 🤣🤣

[@myhauntingromance]

I know it was a pain but...could you link the bookshelf😅 it would be perfect for my small space

[@annelabrie8837]

I can’t emotionally accept the Nearly Naturals palette being discontinued. It makes no sense, especially business sense. We all are dying to get it. The demand is so high. It turns me off from the brand in general. I want this glorious palette and don’t want to pay $150 for a heavily used one.

[@daniellezadora7637]

😂 yes queen! Preach! ❤

[@AmyLovesMakeup]

I couldn’t believe it either! Maybe they had a supply issue and it wasn’t by choice. I don’t know 🥲

[@sentimentaltrash]

I’m hoping they’ll bring it back in the smaller pan sizes! They did that with Sandra rose and I was sooo happy!!!
