Single Eyeshadows (Over $10) | 2022 Editor's Favorites

Christine — Fri, 30 Dec 2022 20:00:00 +0000

In past years’ roundups, I’ve included Multichromes with Single Eyeshadows, but this year, there were quite a few shades reviewed in the Multichrome finish… and they just needed their own post. I also thought it would be more interesting to see what “regular” eyeshadows stood out in the singles department given that there aren’t THAT many by mainstream brands. The biggest release of singles this year was definitely from Lisa Eldridge, which offered the eyeshadows in five pre-made eyeshadow palette color stories as well as refills.

If you’re unfamiliar with how I like to do my year-end favorites, here’s the low down: I pull from the products I reviewed in 2022, regardless of whether they were new, limited edition, or an established range I’ve only just gotten around to reviewing. These are personal favorites, so they may or may not be the highest rated products reviewed during the year (though they will tend to be better rated, naturally!). (You can check out the best of 2021 posts if you missed last year’s.)
