My Top 4 Drugstore Eyeshadow Palettes

My everyday eye consists of neutral smokey eye, even though I have many earthy tone shadows I continue to purchase more. I love using taupes, goldens, and darker browns to enhance my eyes, I also find it suitable for day to day wear. Here are 4 of my top drugstore palettes. I find myself gravitated towards these 4 the most, they get much use!
  Pictured here is: Quo Back to Basics Palette  Wet N' Wild Comfort Zone Palette  Essence Sun Club, and Wet N' Wild Walking on Eggshells. 
 Wet N' Wild Comfort Zone is truly the perfect earthy tone palette. It's got a total of 8 shades in it, 4 of which are browns, and 4 that are variations of green. As many of you know these shadows are intensely pigmented, there soft, smooth, and apply to the eyes with ease. The shadows have a tinge of frost to them, the bottom green shade is really unique because it is duo chrome. I love that all the palettes come with a brow bone/ highlight shade, a lid color, a crease, and definer shade. The palette is versatile as it can dressed up or down.

Wet N' Wild Walking on Eggshells is yet another Wet N' Wild palette I adore. The colors are soft and romantic, the brown adds just the perfect amount of definition. If you prefer a darker crease  you can easily build it up without experiencing fall out.

Availability- Wal-Mart &  the Real Canadian Super-Store
 Quo Back to Basics is gorgeous neutral palette, that was sold as a part of the holiday collection. The palette houses 12 rectangle shadows that range from a light champagne shimmer to a black. This palette has much variation, you can stick with a minimal eye, or a more dramatic eye for a night out. The shadows are also really soft, and smooth. One bonus is that the palette comes with both frosty and matte shades.

Essence Sun Club Palette in Long Beach- This is the palette I have been reaching for the most over the past couple of days, I saw it and instantly fell in love. It gives me the perfect golden eye! The Essence shadows are really good quality,  and they have an amazing color payoff.

Availability- Select Shoppers Drug Marts

  5. I love Wet N' Wild Comfort Zone! :) I couldn't believe what amazing quality it was for the price, and the shades are just gorgeous. That Quo palette looks amazing! I wish they would sell their holiday palettes year round. The Essence palette looks beautiful as well! Do you know if it's still being sold?

    1. Meee too! I ended up getting the palette for my birthday from my bff, but I was looking around during the holiday time and most Shoppers sold out so fast, although they did re-stock...they even got marked down!! I believe the Essence is still available, I think it is apart of the permanemt line:)

  8. The comfort zone palette looks really pretty and easy to create many different eye looks. I like how the wet and wild palettes come labeled with a basic idea of where to apply the shades. I'll have to check if they sell wet and wild near me!
