Hi little Nikki. We’re in BIG trouble. This old granny from Texas had so much fun watching this video! Bought your bundle. Just couldn’t help myself. You’re such a little doll you could have sold me a vegan dinner right in the middle of cattle country. Can’t wait to get it! I have a question. Can you tell me about your makeup mirror? I’m going to need one to get all this new makeup on properly. ❤&✌️, GrannyVee.

I don’t even wear eyeshadow (only because I’m unable to make it look good on me), and I’m still crazy excited about this video!

A one and done eyeshadow you might like is Charlotte tilbury eyes to mesmerize. They look like you’ve done multiple steps. They’re lovely!! And are so user friendly. Will last a long time. Love it! I own 3 of them. Try champagne or oyster pearl. You won’t be disappointed.

Try one color over the lid then when you’re ready add another shade for depth then when you feel confident enough you can start adding some shimmer. Just play with it. Take your time. There are no rules. Start with a light hand and slowly build it up. You can always add more but it’s much harder to lighten it up.

The Viseart Neutral Mattes palette can’t be beat for me. I’m a a stage and camera performer and that palette literally changed my makeup life. I’ve used it for many years now and get so many compliments on my makeup. The formula is pigmented and blends like butter with no fallout, it’s just all around fantastic. I use a lot of high end shadows and every time I reach back for my Viseart it’s like a sigh of relief. Shimmers are fun to collect and play with to pair with this palette, but for a solid matte base with beautiful neutral warm and cool tones there is just no better formula out there for my skin.

Yes! I am fair and cool toned, so none of the matte palettes in this video make sense for me. But Viseart Neutral and Cool Mattes are my go-tos. Easy to work with and spot on in the undertones for my complexion.

I've been sleeping on mine and then used it recently. It's quite the compliment getter, just like her Gold palette and PM's Motherships.

Would love to see a video where you do a few different looks using the ND I Need a Nude palette. Maybe like a simple all mattes subtle/natural look, then progressively more glam from there.

@sheilasamuels1066

I second this and the Pat M wonderful multi colors palatte

What are your thoughts/experience with Viseart eyeshadows?

I absolutely agree about I Need a Nude. It looks boring but that is precisely what I enjoy about it. When I want to look out together quickly and not have makeup wear me, I pull out this palette. When my husband said I looked “normal” fell in love with it even more. Can’t wait to take it on a trip with me because it has simplified my makeup routine on days when I just want to keep it simple and pretty.

Drinking my coffe, flipping thru my YT and BAM! New vid from Nikki! I jumped on it. Good morning! ❤❤❤

My birthday is in a couple of weeks and my daughter ordered the “I Need a Nude Eyeshadow Palette “, I can’t wait to use it.

I'm loving the Natasha Denona Glam palette right now! So many beautiful deep bronze and brown shades along with every light to medium neutral metallic shade. There are a couple matte crease and blending colors along with a smoky black for the lash line. I can use this for a pretty day look or a glammed out smokey nighttime look.

Very informative video Nikki!! I've been on the hunt for a nude/neutral eyeshadow palette. Your video helped me choose which one i would choose. I can't afford to buy everything, so i research which product will i get the most use out of. Your videos ( not just this one) have helped me so much in making smart choices that i'll constantly use. All this to say Thank You Nikki for all your hard dedicated work. It's very much appreciated!!

I love you so much Nikki! I had asked you at your last live stream what your favorite eyeshadow palette is and the fact that you came out with a video of all your favs makes me so happy!!! You’re the absolute best. You are my FAVVV.

Marshalls and TJMax both have a limited number of the Pat McGrath palette locked up with their more expensive items right now. That’s where I found mine and I snatched it up so quick! This is the first time I’ve watched you and you are awesome. Thank you for taking the time to swatch everything. That is so helpful. I am an eyeshadow palette hoarder. They are just little pieces of art to me. This video drew me in immediately.

I'll have to go soon

I have an I need a nude palette and it's STUNNING... I'm inspired to do makeup again, it's THAT amazing

the mothership v is one of my favorites too😍 its such a cool palette that when i brought it home and was showing my mom; my dad, who is your stereotypical "im a manly man i do construction and shoot guns manly man" saw that top shade you called the tinkerbell shade and thought it was so cool😂 first time i've ever seen him show even minimal interest in makeup lol, he was at the window tilting it back and forth like "look at it! it was green! and now its pink! and now its green!"

my local tj maxx had plenty of that holiday pat mcgrath palette.. i may have to go back and pick it up

Naked Lunch is one of my all time favourites! I'm wearing it today. I throw that on my lid with a nice crease colour, liquid liner and mascara and I look polished.

These would be a great series on all products!! ❤❤❤

YAYY!! Setting up my studio for my wedding clients today! And watching you! The best!!!

I agree with your top picks. Thanks for sharing your favorites. I would add the following because the formulas are a dream to blend: Sigma, ABH and Colourpop (so reliable and affordable, especially for non neutrals and metallics, call-out to Troublemaker palette). Of course there are indie brands like Nabla, City Color (Grunge) and Alora that I love to reach for.

The Biba palette was definitely a hit to the wallet but so worth it. I’ve never experienced eyeshadow formulas quite like those. Fantastic video, thank you! Also- the Echo and the Bunnymen lyric tattoo is ❤

I’m not anti-Charlotte Tilbury at all! I love the Pinkgasm glow wand. But it’s refreshing to hear a makeup artist say that her eyeshadows are nothing special. I get tired of the influencers raving up her products all of the time when all of them aren’t that special. To me! Now the new Natasha Denona pallet is amazing! It’s so pretty! The shimmers are beautiful! I love it. One of my favorite pallets is the Rose Metals pallet by ABH. It’s stunning on the eyes.

Thank you so much Nikki! I always love watching your videos and always can’t wait for the next one. Thank you for always being so honest and giving me so much knowledge! I have been waiting for the pat McGrath celestial and thanks so much for adding a link bc I couldn’t find it anywhere! You are a beautiful soul ! Thanks so much!!! So excited. Keep on with the top 10s love them

Being a bridal makeup artist, I absolutely love all of these choices! I had to stop at patrika ta! But this video is so good!!!! Love live your content!!

Thanks for your recommendations Nikki, I love your makeup channel, it's become my favorite for how much in depth you talk about everything and explain how to make a look step by step! Good luck with everything in your life 💝

Your jewelry/accessories are always gorgeous. Love your personal style. Thank you for this informative list and all your teaching vids. My makeup has never looked so good

I just purchased the Natasha Denona palette and can't wait to get it , I was on the fence for awhile but you just confirmed why I'm going to be so happy having it in my collection. I have been watching your channel for several months now and respect your tremendous talent and your honest unbiased opinions. Thank you for sharing with us so consistently. I love all your uploads and am excited to see more looks with the ND palette!!😘

This has been an excellent topic considering how many palettes there are out there to choose from. I love how you swatched them all for us and let us know why you like them so much. Brilliant, especially since most of the make up influencers are hawking just the newest palette out for purchase.

Love love love this list ❤. Probably because they are all ones I own. The Elcie was definitely that girl back in the day and still is. It is almost like a mini Biba palette in my mind.

You have become my favourite beauty KZreadr. There’s something lovely about your energy. Outside of the Fenty one,I also own and love all these palettes 💖

So glad you covered Elcie! I got the mauves one when I was first getting into wearing more dramatic eye makeup and it changed my world. It's so good - I had people stop me to ask what eyeshadow I was wearing. I think I watched a video where the owner talked about her process to develop the perfect flattering mauve tone. I had to toss it because it was old and have been thinking about replacing it.

Love love love all your picks!! Thanks for the detailed review very inspiring

Out of all the new palettes that have been released lately, that Elcie all matte one is calling to me....ive really been liking that simple, elegantly casual all matte look and those shades are the very definiton of me!!! Thank you for enlightening me!

I love and appreciate your advices. You just have a way with giving makeup tips that’s easy to understand 😊

My Dream palette from Natasha Denona is amazing! I use it all the time and get so many versatile looks. I do really like purple and orange toned eyed so it’s a perfect color story for me. I also rearranged the shades to get more creativity

I think I have rewatched this video over 20x I love haven nikki on in the background while I’m getting ready or cleaning

I have so many of these and I’m drawn to so many I don’t have. Thank you, I think. It’s great to get a quick review of all of these beautiful palettes and colours.

Would love to see a tutorial of how you did your eye makeup with the Natasha palette! Thank you for this!

Hi Nikki! I love your eyeshadow. Rooting for you to make the tutorial. It’s so refreshing! Everyday I am excited for your new videos.❤

So, this look...all of it...this entire look you have here is soooo gorgeous on you. As I was watching this for the sheer amount of information you provide for us, I couldn't get over how amazing you look! From the grey/taupe see-through blouse; to your *gold* jewelry which really works with this outfit; and obviously, that two-toned necklace is just *chef's kiss* spot on! And, to the stunning makeup you have on, that is simply as perfect as it could be; the lip color, and all the way down to your nail color -- absolute perfection, Nikki! Also, I didn't think your skin could possibly look any better than it already does, and I had to look at a few of your first few videos to check...but dare I say, you look *especially* glowing from within these days...:) It's a funny thing, commenting on KZread. I only comment when I feel really strongly about something. So we'll keep this in mind since I'm laying it on pretty thick, lol! It just comes out, and say what I feel. Thank you Nikki!

Absolutely loved this video, these are some of the prettiest palettes ever!! Can you make a video of how you store your palettes? And also what you use to hold your makeup kit? Love you! Xx

I cant believe I had most of the pallets you reviewed 🙄 One just cannot get enough makeup ... its just so relaxing to put on and buy 😆.... Nonetheless; I did not have the Elcie neutrals pallet so I went ahead and bought this & they had a beautiful Mauve pallet on their website that for me, mauve is a must have those colors just look good on my skin tone... Thanks Nikki.. I do have to get the Ptatrick Ta I only have his Mauve pallet but if you like his other warm and all matte pallets I am sure they are a must have... Have a Happy Saturday beautiful ! until your next review

What a fun video! I am also currently in love with Natasha’s “I need a nude” palette… OMG, a stunner for those of us like myself who love cool tones. Still experimenting with all the colors, but I’m also playing with the Girlactic palette. It is beautiful. Thanks for this fun, thoughtful, enlightening “The Top 10 Palettes” Nikki!!!

I can’t stop staring at your eye make up, it looks so beautiful and is so flattering.

I would like that also. Lancome used to have some that I wore nearly every day but they are long ago discontinued. There was a green I put just over the center that made brown eyes pop.

Best video ever! I was waiting on this video Nikki. You are absolutely the best.

I love your Girlactik palette, Nikki. The colors are so beautiful. I want that last ND palette so bad.

Very interesting. Funny that I Need A Nude Palette, is not completely nude: a lot of shimmer and rosy tones. It is gorgeous! A little expensive for me and I don’t wear so much shimmer or extravaganza all the time, but I do appreciate looking at it. I actually have a small ND eyeshadow palette with five colors, I love it a lot and it’s even wearable for an everyday look. These palettes that you are showing are like pieces of art. They are even more beautiful when they are used and loved, I think.

LOVE ur Top 10 List, Nikki 💯🙌🏻 I love these same palettes! 😍 TY for mentioning Fenty Sunstalkr palette - I’d better pick that one up before it’s discontinued! 😅

You are gorgeous and I absolutely love watching your videos! I have multiple palettes, but I always end up using the same 2 single eyeshadows from MAC and ABH. I have ND glam and I need a nude and I always want an eye look just like the one you did for this video but I can never get it to look like that. I’m not an artist but I LOVE make up and I so wish I could do eye looks on myself!! You are awesome, thank you for your videos!

a little tip: I use the light champagne shade from the Charlotte Tilbury as a face highlighter.. so soft and subtle so beautiful, and it means I travel with one less product in my bag 😊

Nikki: I love your videos. Thanks for sharing so much! I agree 90% with your list. I missed the brand Visiart: a must in my kit.

thank you so much for this video!!! all the palettes you chose are gorgeous indeed, but the ONE that i truly want and crave for is ND’s “i need a nude” eyeshadow palette, because it’s perfect for me and exactly what i love to wear. 🥰🥰🥰

loved that you mentioned the elcie minimalist palette!!

Hello beautiful people!! Nikki, you are a rock ⭐ star!! I have nine of those and completely agree. I haven't used that PMG in so long. Thanks for the inspo 💋💚

Excellent advice and an amazing idea to do for your viewers ❤

danggg the mothership V! known about it for years, but never seen someone break down its shades in such detail. adding to my wishlist for sure. my absolute faves are sydney grace singles, and my elf matte palette!

I was so excited when I saw that you posted this! I love to see my favorite MUA post favorites! I am going to get the new Patrick Ta matte palette for sure. I just got the Ethereal Eyes by Mario and a palette from Sydney Grace. You're a bad influence on me, showing me all of these beautiful palettes, lol! Thank you so much. I REALLY love your content ❤ 41:39

Thank you for this video! I’ve had the I Need a Nude for a while now and haven’t used anything else. Watching this I came to think of a wish for a video: a warm toned look on a cool skinned person and vice versa.

Thank you for this 🙏🙏 I brought the mini Biba and discovered a new Natasha Denona, Starlette 🎉🎉 both perfect tones and have more Matt shades in than previous minis ✨

I have the mini biba and that’s good for me I have the glam face pallet and the rose cheek duo and I’m into them

You are the best Nikki ❤❤❤…. Have a great weekend ahead 🫶🏻🫶🏻

I love the look of the Girlactik palette, and I see that they ship outside the USA which is great. The Pat McGrath palette (pink packaging) has literally been on sale on Sephora Canada for many months now, so I guess I will scoop it up on your recommendation. I am a huge fan of the Viseart Neutral Matte palette personally. Thank you for this video!

Wow Nikki! I absolutely love your taste in makeup and eye for stunning makeup textures. I aspire to owning these 10 palettes as you picked them out. Luckily I already own a few. 😂

I bought some discontinued palettes on Vinted. Was really great for that and saved me some money. I would love to add the girlactik palette to my collection but I think I need to hit some more pans in some of my other palettes first to justify it. Especially as the Colourpop bare necessities has a lot of similar shades. Really loved this video. Seeing looks with all of these palettes would be amazing. My favourite palette is very basic but it’s the Vieve Terra quad. It’s all mattes but I love it for every day. It makes my eye colour pop. I think next I would say nude mood from Colourpop. But I really don’t own that many and I still haven’t tried my Colourpop limoncello and sandstone palettes. I really think the palettes I would wish for would be the girlactik one and the Vieve essentials palette.

As always, you share great information! Thank you.

I have so many eyeshadow palettes, but I had to order the Girlactik. Simply stunning! Thank you for your suggestion.

Nikki this video is incredible, I love your videos❤

Not shadow related, but I just bought the Tom Ford Cream Bronzer (because of your recommendation), and I'm in love. I didn't want to buy it all these years because of its price but it's worth every penny. It looks beautiful on the skin, and it's so easy to use. Literally fool-proof. Thanks Nikki!

My vote is viseart. And recently bought a revlon prism and I’ve been using them wet- and loving the look lately.

Love this Nikki!!! ❤❤❤

As a redhead/light auburn I love the Tartelette Juicy palette. For fun colors I like the old Huda Mercury Retrograde palette.

Thank you for this look! I have the Groundwork palette, and I would love to see other ways that you use the palette.

I have seen the pat mgrath holiday palette at tjmaxx and Marshall's for like 29 or 39 dollars

I purchased the ND I need a nude palette the day it was released. Also have her Glam palette. I really enjoy the more neutral and taupe shadows.

That fenty palette I passed on because non of the bronzers matches me perfectly… but then i saw you recommending it in another video & i got the last one available at my sephora and now I’m OBSESSED like you said I can’t start any eyeshadow look without it i mix the lightest 2 shade to make it work for my face but as eyeshadow that palette is everything no fallout at all i look that deepest shade too it’s my favorite in my collection Many thanks ❤❤❤

Hi Nikki. I'm loving your look today.

I'd never heard of Elcie. Their mauve palette looks gorgeous

This is a day to watch Nikki videos. Love to see your top 10. So happy that the Girlactik palette made it! I got your kit ❤❤. And this I need a nude palette, wow. I saw your first grwm using it and had to get it. I love these cool shades. Great buy.

Hi Nikki, I enjoyed watching this video great sell, Natasha Denona is my favourite brand for eyeshadow palettes- I need a nude,Yucca , bronze, and retro glam palette, and all her mini palettes. as a mature -56 1/2yrs woman who has oily skin and eyelids, Natasha Denona performs brilliantly every time, my other brands I gravitate towards is Pat McGrath mothership palette no:8, Patrick Ta major -dimensions 2, and Anastasia Beverly Hills -rose metals,Huda beauty- rose quartz, mercury retrograde.
