I thought it would be fun to rank my ten oldest palettes in my collection to see which I loved the most. Let’s take a trip down memory lane together!
Bottom 2
#10 Pat McGrath Divine Rose $125 – Yikes! This is a scary one to be putting at the bottom. I treated myself to this palette when I earned the $100 Rouge Reward at Sephora and it has never been a favorite. I cannot seem to declutter this palette from my collection because it is such a special luxury piece, but I rarely reach into it. I do not see the hype in the Pat McGrath palettes and I really wish I did.
#9 Natasha Denona Gold – This may come as a surprise to you, as I rave about Natasha Denona having one of my top favorite eyeshadow formulas. Her mini and midi sized palettes are my favorite, and I buy almost every release in those smaller sizes. While I do like this palette, the formula in here is not as good as her newer palettes. It’s missing some of the special formulas like the cream to powder that I enjoy so much. I struggle to see the over $100 value and am hesitant on recommending such expensive palettes.
Top 2
#2 ColourPop x Kathleen Lights Dream Street – My favorite look in my 5 Looks with 5 Throwback Palettes video came from using this palette. I love it so much, I could wear it every single day! This palette has seen a lot of love from me, and it’s traveled with me often. The blue and red pops of color give this small palette a lot of variety. I remember this release being so exciting! Kathleen continues to be a favorite of mine, and receiving this palette in PR many years ago is something I’ll always remember.
#1 Anastasia Beverly Hills Sultry – I mean .. who’s surprised? I still reach into this palette so often! I cannot deny that the ABH eyeshadow quality is great. The mattes blend easily, the shimmers are impactful. I love the cooler tones that we see in here. This palette has definitely stood the test of time! It has my heart, and I wish they would bring it back.
