7 BEST MINI EYESHADOW PALETTES | Risa Does Makeup

[@helenalice5946]

Have you done a video on your favorite drugstore mini pallettes?Pallette? I would love that!

[@LisaS-ul6vx]

I'll be 60 in a few months. Glad I dont feel the need to avoid shimmer. I love shimmer, metallics, multichromes, and holochromes!

[@LDee-tc6ck]

About to be 59. Me, too!

[@latherandlace]

Wow! Im first! And my favorite topic! Eyeshadow! I will say I absolutely love Natasha Denona I Need A Nude palette and Colourpops Stone Cold Fox. Both big palettes and I love them. Also, I'll be 65 next month and I use a shimmer on my inner lid every day. It makes me happy. I use the primer for glitter on just my lids and it works. Love your channel, Risa!

[@lunagabriella213]

❤❤❤ You are fabulous! I'm 36 and do the exact same! It's very comforting to know that I can just be myself :)

[@mhanshaw165]

Those two are my favorite also! I was hoping to see a cool mini pallet recommended in this video.

[@janettehale3109]

Also two of my favorite palettes! And I am 60+ and love a good shimmer!!

[@bookshopgirlilmariel2510]

Finally people are talking about the YSL 200 Guelez Dreams palette.. people were raving about 100 Stora Dolls but i find the 200 such a perfect palette.

[@lorainemcgillivray77]

Hi Risa I prefer smaller palettes because they are far less unwieldy to hold/use. I love my viseart palettes and the Dior backstage palettes- they are my most used palettes. I have palettes from ND and UD (as well as quite a few others😂), but I love the shimmer formula from viseart and dior as there is far less fallout and glitter in them. I like a shimmer on the lid and will use a duochrome etc, but I don’t like a ton of glitter falling down my face during the day (I do use a glitter primer btw). I have some crepey texture on my lids at 52 and this might be the reason for the fallout, but I don’t want expensive eyeshadow to do that tbh. Best wishes x

[@Micolovescoffee]

I love minis too! They are so cute, travel friendly and easy just easy to deal with!!

[@ladyrachel13]

I really like the Sephora palettes. Some of the reviews say they aren't pigmented enough but I find that they are blendable.

[@Micolovescoffee]

I feel in the whole Sephora store- Sephora brand is the best. It’s so affordable and they also have great sales. The palettes are compact, mini, so so pigmented and lasts much longer than many high end products. I use lots of their products honestly and love them all. I highly recommend that brand and wish people spoke about it more

[@Micolovescoffee]

I totally agree! I use most of Sephora products which are so affordable and honestly works better than many high end products! I wish influencers spoke about it more. In the whole store I would say Sephora brand is my fav as it’s the best quality and affordable

[@ladyrachel13]

@@Micolovescoffee I feel like a lot of people don't really give that brand a chance. I'm sure there are plenty of people who do but maybe there's a bit of a snobbery about it. I've come to love it. I have about 7 of their palettes. The most recent one I bought was the Precious Gemstones in Pearl. It is beautiful. 😍

[@jennybrandt5188]

Your blue eyes are popping. You look beautiful. I want to try the ND mini glam eyeshadow.

[@gladysgarrity5721]

Afternoon Risa I’m definitely with you on small palettes they are so much better to use & less complicated to use see you soon ❤

[@beautywithas]

I absolutely love Viseart! The color payoff is fantastic and I love the minis for my kit.😊

[@denisseramos3412]

I love small size eyeshadow palettes, for every day or for travel. I prefer 6 to 9 pans; my favorite palettes are Nars orgasm rising, CT darling easy eye and Huda beauty nude obsessions medium.

[@chicalertng]

I love mini makeup items because they are so easy to travel with.

[@esthertschwartz]

Hi! I love the ND mini Glam palette. Yes, these minis are excellent.....until you want to play. I enjoy 12-15 pan palettes best.

[@alineroberts]

Risa, that colour (dress) looks spectacular on you! Very beautiful. 💕

[@RisaDoesMakeup]

Thank you so much!

[@veronicasalas2666]

I have an older palette from Charlotte Tilbury and I still love it! The formula is so easy to work with. I love the pop color in there. I do apply it with my finger. Thank you sooo much for the time you put into this video Risa! Your recommendations are always the best for my skin type 🥰👍

[@stephanieforster3218]

That was an interesring topic and I am part of those who don’t know what to do with large palettes ! Thank you Risa !

[@juliechambers7652]

I love ND eyeshadows! Great job!😊

[@lindafillichio1048]

Another great video. Thank you Risa. You were also the first one I saw with the Aqua Phor for under the eyes. Thank you. It’s wonderful💓

[@annabelperkins3572]

I agree 100% that the larger palettes can be intimidating. You sit there looking at it, thinking "where do I begin?" I love the Urban Decay eyeshadows. I find them rich in colour and quality. The same with the Natasha Denona mini Glam palettes. I've not tried the Viseart shadows,but I'm sorely tempted to invest in one. Thoroughly enjoyed today's video,thank you! x Just as a side question. What tips and advice do you have for holiday make up? I find I pack the same make up whether we visit a cold or warm country. The warmer the country, I struggle keeping my make up from not sliding off my face! (I have dry skin).

[@StephanieMarie]

I knew you'd love that cold smolder nudes palette more! It's so good!

[@luvbylisa]

Great video Risa. For the past 3yrs all I use is shadow sticks. Its seems faster to put on and get out the door. Do you use them? If so what are your favorites?

[@RisaDoesMakeup]

I’m just now getting into them, and the Armani eye tints! I’ll be speaking about them in an upcoming video.

[@_dewinther]

Thanks, I love the smaller palettes! Great review 💖💖💖

[@karekausnicolli4890]

I have larger palettes, but I find I use mostly the same select colors. I find the smaller palettes more user friendly and geared toward the particular look I want. I signed up to be notified when the Viseart mini palette is back in stock. I am definitely drawn to purples/plums for my hazel green eyes, and I love a more cool-toned look.

[@marygossett1455]

Wonderful job, as always. I trust you, Risa, and value these comparisons for all skin types. You're so thoughtful that way. Thank you so much.

[@southerngirl773]

Always Love your videos! It’s all about the EYES.

[@jeanniebarzona8023]

Hi Risa, Thanks for all you do 😊. Could you recommend a mini eyeshadow palette for my green eyes? I always get compliments when I wear light purple. I also am a cool tone and prefer mat.

[@Beautybytracilei]

Those tiny Viseart palettes are great to carry in your purse. I have watery eyes at times and I often need to reapply eyeshadow to my outer v.

[@haroldobrien9852]

Risa I recently tried the Korean foundation application using a foundation spatula and am loving it so far. Your're one of my top 3 MUA I follow and would love your input thoughts on this technique. Thanks Donna

[@michellenavarrette]

Thank you so much for recommending a Viseart palette. I love their shadows so much, and almost no one mentions them.

[@viesmith4685]

Cold Smolder Nudes is perfect for work makeup then straight to HH. Just bought last week (from your recommendation) and wore all week and weekend. I love matte and shimmer as a topper and move on - more like a two and done.

[@mashtires1848]

Just what I was searching for now! Thank you 😊

[@Darbsi]

I love neutral cool and warm tones too. Just a sucker for a neutral palette. I can wear both and I have some of those palettes that you showed. Love the ABA mini so much. And I have the bigger one too. 😬😂 Love that too faced one too. I got both of the mini palettes and the cool toned is my favorite one. You are right about the ND mini palette not showing up because I have medium tan skin but the one I love so much that does pack a punch is the mini my dream. I love that so much. Thanks for sharing. ❤

[@tnsprout]

Interesting to know about the red dye / eye irritation issue. I have the same reaction recently with one of my Lancome purple eyeshadow mini palettes...and with others in the past

[@maureentakach3065]

Recommendations for a mini palette for a rich chocolate brown eye? (Not warm orangey brown because this pulls really orange on me). Recommendations appreciated. Thank you for the great video, Risa xo

[@bugsybaby4944]

Risa, that top color looks so good on you!

[@ceciliaazwildcat1781]

Hello Risa, I love your videos. I have brown eyes and hooded. What color of eyeshadow would work best? Thank you n stay healthy. ❤❤❤

[@tc7909]

Another great video! I’m so glad you mentioned Viseart. They are one of the OG brands that are so high quality. I think people forgot about them because they don’t market as much. Their mini mattes are a must have imho. Oh and happy Birthday Risa! Another year wiser and hotter!🎉❤❤

[@marilynhodgkinson5299]

Hi Risa l love the smaller palettes as they fit in my handbag for travel. So easy to use. Great video Thanks.❤

[@redsoles174]

I’ve found that although the larger palettes are beautiful, there are a lot of colors that go unused and are wasted because you stick to the colors you like and not use the rest. So smaller palettes seem more cost effective and simplified, like you said. Thank you for sharing your favorites!

[@marilynmroe9077]

Luv mini palettes ! So much variety and range and easy for the average person or beginner to use! ❤

[@justbecause9049]

That shade for the Anastasia palette broke on me too. It’s really messy, like a pressed glitter pigment. I just put tape over that shade and used the rest of it. It was still my favorite palette for a long time.

[@sheahill3340]

I love the mini pallets! Easy to try some new and easy for travel 😊

[@agelessbeautybychristina]

The only pallette with that has ever bothered me was ABH Soft Glam (the original). Does it bother you? Maybe the Soft Glam 2 (mini) is a different formula??? I just love that color story. I have even thought about giving that pallette to someone who isn't bothered by it, but I just can't part with it. It's so pretty!

[@tonidavie3635]

I brought some empty quads from Amazon and have been trying new shadows together. A fun way to use all of my shadows

[@mahareslan641]

My most used mini eyeshadow palettes for this year were too faced warm ember nudes,CP feeling bubbly and of quartz also Spehora Destination palette 🥰❤️

[@lesliehatch-herman9325]

Of Quartz is one of my faves!

[@debbiesmith4887]

Always enjoy and learn from your videos. Ty

[@RisaDoesMakeup]

Glad to hear it! 🥰

[@mollyjane01]

Risa~I’m so glad you filmed this video-I didn’t want it to end!! I love the current trend of mini palettes or even throwing your fave bronzer in the crease, add a little sparkle & calling it a day. I agree that those YSL quads deserve a spot as well as the ND mini Glam ✨✨✨ Love your content, pretty lady!! Keep up the great work😊🤍

[@roger12393]

Could you do a review on all of your mini Natasha Deanna palettes? Loved this review. I love smaller palettes.

[@LenaSheppard]

Thanks for sharing. I just love all sizes of eyeshadow palettes. I appreciate you keeping us company !

[@cindatelis]

LOVE my viseart mini palettes. Carry them all the time. Just the right blend of convenience, pigment, blendability, AND price. And not one of them has broken or popped out. Thanks for the suggestions. Looking at YSL 200 And 500 now. I’ll send my hubby your way when he sees the bill…. 😂

[@DDayton-eu8lo]

Great selections. I have several of these and love them.

[@gabbyastudillo5991]

I love small palettes Risa I have few from Elf they really good and friendly travel. thanks for the Great video.

[@yvettenguyen2275]

I realized for me that mini is the way to go. Loved this video ❤

[@MelissaPaul-gs2rp]

Yes, I’d love Natasha to known as pallets they are my very favorite. I still struggle with what colors to put where since I’ve gotten older, I wish you would do a video on what colors to put where thank you for sharing.❤

[@kimberlyklug8191]

I really like this background color and lighting you have today!

[@kimc555]

I recently decluttered my makeup collection. Got rid of a lot of palettes. I love them but I don’t wear eyeshadow as often as I used to. When I do, it’s almost always matte. Only big palette I kept is the Morphe cooled toned matte neutrals they released last year.

[@laurazeller2014]

Thank you for reviewing these palettes.

[@JaBMRu]

Thank you for sharing your favs ❤

[@GhosstRyder]

I am a cool toned girl that makes the pretty warm tone pallets don’t look that good on me even though I love some of them. Your picks are all so pretty.❤️❤️❤️

[@gailschaefer-guajardo6731]

Thanks for sharing. How is the Aquaphor working under the eyes❓👍🤗💋❤️❗

[@carolwong9279]

I love love love Mario’s master matte palette neutral. Even though it’s not a mini, it small enough to travel with easily. I can’t live without it.

[@RisaDoesMakeup]

I love it too!

[@Anjali_Anshika_Lifestyle]

Wow! Nice product ❤❤

[@sherrypettit5552]

I love all size of palettes. I reach more for midi and smaller palettes these days. I am 53 now and less interested in the huge palettrs. I will pull them out but not as much

[@traciscottkleier]

Can you do a video on best eyeshadows for textured eyes?

[@deedeegray7489]

Risa, you recommended Clio Kill Lash mascara in an earlier video, IT IS THE BOMB !!!!! I have had it on since 2:00 pm Monday, Memorial Day, it is now 2:00 am Wednesday May 29 !!!!! NO FLAKING, NO SMUDGES, NO LASHES FALLING OUT !!! It has been through crying, eye drops, sleeping through the night !!! As long as they make, I'll wear it !!!! Thank you for recommending it!

[@RisaDoesMakeup]

Yay!! I’m so glad!!! 😃

[@Diane0123]

Great video, stunning look. I have that same ND mini and I love it. I also really love the I need a nude mini dream palette…😁

[@MiaHessMusic]

I really appreciate your hard work bringing us these videos. You have warmth and charm! Bravo! Risa, what do you recommend for brown eyes and fair skin? being colorblind I REALLY struggle with the eyeshadow thing even though I've been doing makeup for almost 60 years (I jsut turned 70) and so Happy Birthday to you, fellow Gemini!

[@maritkristianehauganwick7721]

Good afternoon,i also prefer mini palettes 😊 you loook beautiful as always ❤

[@kimmailloux5620]

Thank you for this video. I love mini palettes for all of the reason you said.

[@kimmailloux5620]

Would you be able to recommend a mini palette for grey colors or is the Two Faced one you showed pretty grey?

[@marybonome9279]

Ty Risa! ❤ As always, love the content!!

[@jjjjk1241]

I’m not the least bit intimidated by larger palettes, and I do love them too, but I prefer smaller ones most of the time simply because they fit on my bathroom counter more easily. Thank you for these recommendations! 😊

[@sandilang3845]

Wish I knew about the small ABH palette because I have the large one and NEVER use it, what a waste of money. Look beautiful Risa. I almost forgot to ask you if you have the Mario neutrals palette and have you shown a makeup on your channel.

[@mariavotto6069]

Love this, Risa! I have one eyeshadow palette and that is the NakedII (Cool Toned) mini. Has everything I need and love and so easy to throw in travel bag. I was considering the TooFaced (cool) and the ND I Need A Dream mini ....but haven't purchased as yet. Try as a I have in the past, I can not do any kind of warm toned palette. I look tired and sick with any warm or red toned...so I stopped trying! I have a couple of shadow sticks and the Urban Decay palette and that's what works...so I'll just continue to go broke on blushes and lippies (of which you have influenced me on some of my FAVORITES in those categories... you never miss!) xoxo

[@thegroomingbabe1325]

Great video as always Risa! eyeshadow has always been so intimidating to me but seeing your suggestions of mini pallets I may start to experiment a lil bit lol 😆😬💞

[@mashtires1848]

If I may ask, what’s the other color quad you have in the YSL clutch?

[@melissamccabe2845]

I love minis!!!

[@bomanhansson]

Love Anastasia! Because it stays on! I have to wash it of before bedtime. Most eye shadows has disappeared by then.

[@barbung3628]

just curious ... how do you change the color of your background? ☺️ this one is great, though i have nothing bad to say about any of them. love your content!

[@KaterinaPisecka]

Hi Risa! I live eyeshadows! I was ‘young’ 😂 in 90’ so I am too all about brown/neutral eyeshadows! I live them all!! Never enough of them! Big palettes do not scare me…for me it is about that I will never use some other colors…I like to change, experiment but I know what I like and it feels pity not to used all of them….

[@kathyhanks1493]

I wish sometime you would do a makeup tutorial on what kind of blush and eyeshadow for brown eyed girls

[@RisaDoesMakeup]

I’ve done a few videos on my mom who has brown eyes. (I got my blue eyes from dad 😊)

[@RebeccaJackson-u1e]

This is like a new video, I mean I don't remember u doing a video like this. I love it so much, just a excellent sort of video I love making colour stories out of different colours in palates. 😊

[@Cindycinnis]

I agree with everything you said!

[@2kim01]

What is your lip combo? I can’t see the links because we don’t have a sephora in the netherlands.. 😢 xx 💋

[@kathykit7629]

Such great suggestions. Love mini palettes and will not buy big ones.

[@jillanemckinney3358]

Thank you so much, Risa! I have 3/7 palettes you mentioned and I’ll certainly check out the others. I love your channel! BTW- you look gorgeous!! 😍🌸💕

[@viviantaunton9783]

You looks gorgeous in that color. As always! tHANK YOU

[@Queenmarie88]

It’s not a mini palette ~~ I’d call it small I guess ~~~9 shades ~~~ but the ColourPop Of Quartz palette is one of my absolute favorites. It’s so very pretty ♥️ And I know Risa loves it too !!

[@alissawhite8772]

Risa, I don’t know if you have done this kind of video or not but would you be able to do a video on how you know whether your skin color is warm, cool, or neutral? For the life of me, I can’t figure out what my skin tone falls under!! Would greatly appreciate it if you could help! Thank you and awesome video, as always!!❤❤

[@joeylynn7858]

I’m looking for recommendations for a good pore filling primer.

[@Kimbyroseh]

Remember the Natasha denona mini bloom highlighting blush? I’m pretty sure you were the one I saw use it in a video and I had to have it, lol…. Anyways, fenty is coming out with the blush lighter blushes…. Those new fenty blushes remind me of the ND mini Bloom blush; and Nars Orgasm & OrgasmX, dewpthroat, some of the pat McGrath blushes electric bloom and cosmic coral; the new Kosas blushes; the newish Essence blushes; Milani baked blushes; and of course Hourglass blushes!!!! I’m hoping to stay strong and skip the fenty blush lighters because I have so many other similar shades, and thanks to you I have the beautiful ND mini bloom!

[@terryblevins2516]

Hi, You know I bought the new Mario palette when it came out and to be honest, although yes, it blends well I just dont reach for it much, I am cool toned and I just find the palette a little to dark for me... I reach for my older small palettes... I know.. 50.00 was wasted really ... Anyway Happy Birthday Risa!!🎂🍹🍹🍸🍷

[@Desertmermaid52]

I like small palettes too because they are less confusing to use- I’m no makeup artist 😂❤

[@ioanarascanu2723]

Forever fan of Jeffree Star "Star Ranch" mini. The one and only.

[@CCKittyKat931]

Thanks so much for your review🥰 I find mini palettes are a lot easier😊

[@julieligon8177]

Thank you, Risa.

[@reneemeyer9107]

Belated happy birthday, gorgeous!

[@TheKBlueyes]

I love your videos! One thing I can’t figure out… all charlotte tilbury pallets, lip,blush show up very brown on my skin no matter what I try. Colors look so gorgeous in packaging, and I have TRIED to love them. They just go on so brown on me. I have no idea why and could use suggestions from anyone out there. I’m 52 and just learning to love myself as I am for the first time in my whole life. TIA for any suggestions!

[@AllySa33]

The same happens to me. If you like CT, try her new pink lipstick collection. I am loving the shades Red Carpet Pink, Icon Baby, Candy Chic and the new Pillow Talk Fair. These are all cooler toned pinks that were much needed in her collection. For blush, she has a mini called the Hollywood Blush & Glow Glide in light-medium which is very pink. One is a matte pink the other is a glowy pink topper shade. For eyes there are so many to choose from depending on your budget. Try the YSL Babylon Roses quad or for less you could try one of the Viseart Lilas palettes (cool toned mauves) to go with your cool toned pinks. I am your age and I adore these products!

[@carolinebrown8965]

Thank you !

[@lyndapurcell8570]

Again, great content. Gorgeous and intelligent, so enjoy your videos.

[@kayla4702]

I definitely want to try Natasha Denona. I will have to narrow down which mini one to get. Lol.😊
