As 2017 comes to a close, it’s time to reflect back on the products I’ve reviewed during the past year and share with you my personal favorites. I felt like this past year focused on eyeshadow palettes over singles, whether powder or cream, though there seemed to be an uptick in liquid eyeshadows, so this year’s list seemed light and was very easy to pick favorites for.  ColourPop Super Shock Shadows continue to impress me overall, but this year definitely seemed lighter on new shades.  It was cool to see MAC release Paints again (though they were limited edition), which used to be a go-to eyeshadow base a decade ago!

Did you have any favorite cream eyeshadows this year?  Let me know in the comments!

P.S. — View swatches of my favorites here!
