How do you figure out what colors to pair together in a pre-made eyeshadow palette?

How do you figure out what colors to pair together in a pre-made eyeshadow palette?

I usually look across rows/columns, start to look at trios and quads and go from there. Sometimes I just have a certain combo in mind, e.g. sunset-colored eye, and will pull shades as they appear.

What are three products you own that you rarely use?

Ha, ha, ha. About 98% of what I “own” isn’t getting frequently used. It might be 99% but let me live under a small delusion.
