What was your first eyeshadow palette? How do you feel about it now?

I don’t remember the exact palette, but I’m pretty sure it was a MAC holiday palette, likely around 2005! I still think they were some of the brand’s better holiday palettes/quads re: quality relative to what came years later, so I’d probably enjoy it enough but wouldn’t be wowed.

What was the last eyeshadow look you put together and loved?

What was the last eyeshadow look you put together and loved?

I loved this shimmery, more muted rainbow eye I did with Clionadh eyeshadows a couple of weeks ago — it wasn’t even intentional to do a rainbow gradient of color!
