bareMinerals The Wish List READY Eyeshadow Palette Review, Photos, Swatches Reviews Contains: Affiliate Links, Purchased 9/30/16September 30, 2016 bareMinerals The Wish List READY Eyeshadow PalettebareMinerals The Wish List READY Eyeshadow Palette ($45.00 for 0.48 oz.) includes 12 neutral-hued eyeshadows in a variety of finishes. It is housed in a fairly slim, plastic compact with a large mirror inside. If you like lighter, warmer neutrals and don’t already have them well-represented in your stash, it’s certainly a palette to consider. On the other hand, as there are numerous palettes that have been launched, there are likely many who already have these colors in their collections (this palette also included several repeats from past bareMinerals shades). Regardless of similarity to past and present neutral palettes, I would have liked to have seen more mid-tone shades and less very light all within the same palette–I feel like it would have made the palette more versatile.Formula OverviewReady Eyeshadow is supposed to have 12-hour wear, “vivid, pure, provocative color” that “looks like a powder, feels like a cream” and blends seamlessly. In general, I quite enjoy this formula, and it’s one of my favorites, as it is typically soft without being too powdery or dusty and more shimmery shades have a real creaminess to them. They wear between eight and twelve hours on me (without primer), blend well, and sit nicely on the skin. The majority of the shades I’ve tested in the past have been mostly opaque to opaque, but there have been a few misses over the years (not too many, though).ValueEyeshadows: $21.00 for 0.09 oz. or $233.33/oz.Palette Contains: 0.48 oz.Total Value: $112.00 worth of Ready EyeshadowMerry is a light pink with subtle, warmer undertones and a soft, frosted finish.

Top 20 dupes listed, see the rest. See comparison swatches / view dupes side-by-side.Yes Please is a medium-dark, taupe brown with warm, golden undertones and a pearly sheen. It appeared to have a grayer overtone than it seemed in the palette, and I couldn’t really tell you why; my best guess is the shimmer comes through more noticeably as it is pressed and worked into the skin than it is in the pan.

ChloeSorry for the unrelated question, but do you think you will be reviewing any of Sugarpill’s new lipsticks?
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »Sorry, I don’t have those!
Katherine T.I think I have to give either Bobbi Brown or Bare Minerals an award for the most repetitive palette colors ever. And it’s disappointing that the 2 darker matte browns got D+, as those are easy shades to get right. I really feel that BM has become very lazy, and is just throwing the same old shades into one palette after another, and the quality appears to be slipping too
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »bareMinerals might win for the holiday season – they are all very similar to each other, not just against past years.
LauraAt first glance, I agree about the lack of variety. Why not 4 light, 4 mid, and 4 dark shades? I would have been all over something like that!
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »Exactly! More variety or a better split would make it more versatile.
Nancy T Medium-Tan, Olive, neutral undertones. Combination skin. »This does seem to pretty decent quality overall. Not bad if one isn’t already stocked up on neutrals. But, I do believe that there are much better neutral palettes out here, for sure. This one needed better variation of tones.
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »I agree; more variation in depth would have helped this one a lot!
Tiffany Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Combination skin. »It’s a pretty palette, and I like seeing Bareminerals doing larger palettes, but there are too many repeats for me.
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »I hear ya! Even if not all repeats… more dupable than not.
Deborah S.I am not too impressed. I think I have become jaded and it really takes a lot more to impress me these days. I have tons of eye shadows that swatch better and are similar in color. Maybe all of the amazing colors have already been done? It is an easy pass for me.
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »I think if you’ve been following makeup for awhile and have built up a stash already, it just takes more to get you excited. I don’t know if that makes you jaded – you’re just already covered! 🙂
Mariella Fair, Pink undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »This palette looks really nice. A few of the shades are a bit warm for my liking and it’s not a palette I need but I really do like it a lot.
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »Happy this appeals to someone! 🙂 It is nice to hear!
MariellaOnly now am I taking a closer look at the whole palette (Bling, Bubbles and Yes Please had caught my eye earlier and I love those) and I realize that 2 of the shadows (Daydream and Boardroom) are 2 I already have. Boardroom in The Power Neutrals palette scored much better than it does here and the same goes for Daydream in The Escape duo. I don’t know how makeup is made or how formulas are stored for further manufacture later on but it surprises me that they’d make the same shades again and have them be soooo bad (mind you, I commented on just how different 2 of those new Buxom eyeshadows I bought are from what their names suggest and how they appeared here when you reviewed them – THAT was actually very surprising to me).
ChristineIt can sometimes just be the way they are pressed – the machinery or manufacturer might be different, and they could just be using more pressure to press the eyeshadow than the last time. The opposite is true – you could not use enough pressure and get a more loosely packed eyeshadow, which might be pigmented but may also have a lot of dustiness/powderiness to it! Just that minor change can have a ripple effect!
Rachel R. Fairest, Neutral undertones. Oily skin. »I’m not impressed with this at all. Too many duds that I know BareMinerals could do right with no problems. It’s just kind of an average neutral palette, you know?
Genevieve Fairest, Pink undertones. Dry skin. »This is a palette that contains the most dupes I have ever seen. Bareminerals, Tarte and Too Faced are not doing their loyal customers any favours by putting out palettes that contain shades that beauty lovers already have in abundance. Secondly, one of the shades that rated a D ( eg Boardroom), bareminerals have ALREADY created a similar shade Foreshadow, that rates an A. Why didn’t they use the same formula here? (Shakes her head). Not surprising, this will be an easy pass for most.
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »Yes — LOTS of dupes with this one!
Mariella Fair, Pink undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »I don’t think any company is more repetitive than Tarte when it comes to eyeshadow palettes. The fact that they have very few permanent shadows makes it even easier to do this, I think, because by the time a new palette comes out, some of the older and virtually identical ones have been discontinued so there’s little to compare against. And now that they do have single shadows, they’re online only, which for someone like me is absolutely infuriating.
kjhProvocative? Yeah, that’s in the copy. Of what? Yawning? I know it’s midnight EDT (dst goes away in Nov this year, for those that thought the calendar makers had forgotten to put it on this year) and I suffer from TMS, but really! This is esp annoying, bec bm can do a great pressed e/s in the ready formula, for those who actually want a neutral palettte. My next full on neutral palette will be Viseart, if muse does the 2fer next year, or I’ll wait for Sephora sale in 2017. Got enough neutrals to last til Armageddon. Actually, enough e/s, but what’s an addiction without a fix? This BE holiday stuff looks like eyeshadow for missionaries. Straight, grossly conservative, and unadventurous. Hope I have not offended any missionaries who might be readers.
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »I didn’t even see that they said it was provocative, LOL!
Kiss & Make-up Light-Medium, Yellow undertones. Very Oily skin. »Looks nice enough. But it’s not special enough for me to want it.
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »Totally understand where you’re coming from!
Fran Light, Pink undertones. Combination skin. »I’m not really into warm neutral eyeshadow palettes, but this does have a few colors that I quite like — Bling, Yes Please, an Come True caught my eye (Come True would be a good blending shade for me). But for some reason this eyeshadow formula does not perform as well on my eyelids as it does on yours, Christine. The colors just seem to look less intense/kind of faded on my lids, even as I apply them.
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »I’m so sad to hear that this formula doesn’t work well for you, Fran! 🙁
SarahBare minerals provides three examples of color combinations for this pallet. Do you have any other examples you might recommend? Thank you!
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »Just the look I did already!
