Huda Beauty Coral Obsessions Eyeshadow Palette ($27.00 for 0.35 oz.) is a rich, warm-toned palette featuring shades of coral from pinky-coral to orange-coral with a hint of yellow, orange, and brown. It contains seven mattes and two shimmers, so for those who like their more matte shades, this is a palette designed with you in mind. The matte shades work well as a gradient of color, so it would be easy to use three or four for seamless blending, even if one might struggle at blending normally.

About This Series

Each look idea is centered around a “quad” of four shades with the expectation that one might bring in the appropriate brow bone or additional transitional shade based on skin tone. I know that I tend to use more like five or six shades in a typical look, but I think that four is a happy medium to give a good idea of the “core” color scheme of a look while giving you the ability to lighten/darken as desired. I have listed the colors in this order: inner lid, middle of lid, outer lid/crease, and crease/above crease.

You might see combinations that seem slightly repeated but placement will vary (e.g. a halo placement where the lightest and more shimmery shade is placed on the center) as placement can also create a different effect/look! You might also want to consider incorporating your favorite matte/shimmer shades (as applicable) to increase the versatility of certain palettes. Consider these ideas a jumping off point!
