Last year, LORAC's Mega PRO eye shadow palette sold out almost instantly, causing something of a riot among the brand's crazed fans. This year's edition of the set has yet to go out of stock. That doesn't mean it's not as good — we're pretty sure the brand produced more to keep up with the intense demand. In fact, the 32 (!!!) shades in this Ulta-exclusive palette are much more varied and wearable than those of its predecessor.

We found the formulas of the shadows in the Mega PRO 2 ($59) particularly impressive. Though they are powders, each one is so finely milled that it feels almost like a cream. As long as we're fangirling, we'll just state that if you're an eye-makeup newbie, this is the set to snag for the holidays. Basic, work-appropriate looks and sultry, smoky eyes are all easy possibilities with the kit's wide range of hues. We tested them on three different skin tones to ensure each color worked on all complexions. They certainly do — see for yourself!
