Best of 2018
Best Eyeshadows (Over $10)
There were two major single releases this year: NARS Eyeshadows were completely revamped, and I reviewed every single single and duo. When it came to some neutral favorites, I actually found that NARS won me over, particularly with the duos (which don’t qualify for this list, as they’re duos), but there were a few of the singles that caught my eye. Make Up For Ever Artist Color Shadows also debuted earlier this year, which was effectively a redo of the Artist Shadow range that changed the pan size, shape, and reformulated a lot of the finishes. Both ranges weren’t as consistent as I would have liked, though, especially for a permanent, core offering.
The formulas that were new and really impressed me as a whole were Marc Jacobs Beauty See-quins Glam Glitter Eyeshadows (loved just about every shade) and Dose of Colors Block Party Eyeshadows (enjoyed a good number of shades). I really hope MJB will consider adding the See-quins range to the permanent line-up… it’s so good!
