Benefit Blush Bar Cheek Palette
The Lowdown: Hoola, and Dandelion, and Galifornia, oh my! If you thought you loved these iconic Benefit shades on their own, wait till you see them all side by side. The brand's new Blush Bar Cheek Palette ($58) makes traveling with these best sellers — plus one brand new blush shade — easier than ever. And yes, those are full-sized pans!
Sephora Beauty Insider Community Reviews: "This blush is an amazing value and has a great color selection! The new Gold Rush blush is SO stunning; amazing by itself for a light wash of warm goldenness (ever so pinky, but not too pink), or as a 'topper.' Of course I love Rockateur and Galifornia as well. Dandelion is slightly more cool, but if you love warm blushes, this palette will be your holy grail. And the smell! Amazing." — dennzster
"I LOVE this palette. It's all of my fave blushes and bronzers in one!" — Mandy1244
Natasha Denona Tropic Eyeshadow Palette
The Lowdown: Blend the rainbow with the help of Natasha Denona's new Tropic Eyeshadow Palette ($129). Known for creating some of the highest quality shadows on the market, these colorfully pigmented shades are sure to please. And even on the days you're feeling a bit more tame, the top two rows of the palette are a neutral lover's dream.
Sephora Beauty Insider Community Reviews: "I don't usually use pastels, but this arrangement of colors is so unique and pretty, I had to get it. I have nothing but good things to say! Some shades you do have to build up, but overall, they're great." — Maddy0715
"Another amazing palette from Natasha Denona! I love how bright and summery the colors are. The mattes are amazingly pigmented yet somehow, there's NO fallout! Her shimmer shades are always on point. I highly recommend this palette!" — TrayZMUA
Pat McGrath Labs MTHRSHP Sublime Bronze Ambition Eyeshadow Palette
The Lowdown: From her buzzy MatteTrance lipsticks to the kits that come packaged in a bed of sequins, Pat McGrath is the undefeated queen of high-impact beauty. The MTHRSHP Sublime Bronze Ambition Palette ($55) is the newest addition to her roster of equally-impressive eyeshadow palettes.
Sephora Beauty Insider Community Reviews: "This formula is definitely 'otherworldly.' These metallics look like solid metal — swatch and you will see. Pat McGrath is the queen for real. There is no other formula like this." — RubyRocker
"This is everything that I love in a palette. You can create a whole look with this one palette, if that is something you are looking for. The shadows feel like butta — yes I said butta! I am hooked and ordered the second of the three MTHRSHP palettes, too." — Tisey
Anastasia Beverly Hills Soft Glam Eyeshadow Palette
The Lowdown: First came Modern Renaissance, then came Subculture and Prism. Now, the Soft Glam Palette ($42) has arrived to bless your face with a mix of dreamy neutral hues that are more subtle than any of the brand's past launches. At this point, it basically goes without saying that this one is an absolute must-have, too.
Sephora Beauty Insider Community Reviews: "The shadows have great pigmentation: easy to blend and no issue with fallout. Even though I didn't really need another neutral palette, this one has everything I need to make complete looks." — Julezzs
"This palette is amazing. Soft Glam has everything you need to do any look for day-to-night, and the blendability is awesome, too. I recommend this to everyone." — Curlyrella
Tarte Be a Mermaid & Make Waves Eyeshadow Palette
The Lowdown: Thanks to Tarte's new Be a Mermaid & Make Waves Eyeshadow Palette ($42), your aquatic dreams can become a reality. Not only does the packaging make for the cutest addition to your vanity, but the 14 matte and metallic shades are too pretty not to play with this Spring.
Sephora Beauty Insider Community Reviews: "First off, the packaging on this is gorgeous! It is the perfect size to hold in your hand with a nice-sized mirror inside. The colors are definitely different for Tarte, but I'm loving it! They allow you to go slightly out of your comfort zone without throwing you to the wolves. The shimmers are also gorgeous and go on wonderfully! Some of the mattes you may have to build up a bit, but give them a second layer, and they're perfect! They blend nicely and last all day. I'm so in love with this palette and can't wait to create different looks!" — Amtangen
"This is 100 [percent] the best palette Tarte has done in a long time. The colors are incredibly pigmented and blendable — and so stunning on the eye. Plus, they are beautifully unique, yet still wearable. I am so impressed with the packaging, too: it is very heavy and feels surprisingly luxurious. There is also a nice large mirror inside. 10/10." — Brynn216
Urban Decay Backtalk Eye & Face Palette
The Lowdown: We're always here for anything that Urban Decay releases, but the Backtalk Eye & Face Palette ($46) is making us swoon especially hard. Besides the genius two-sided packaging that includes both cheek and eye colors, the romantic shade range is unlike anything we've seen from Urban Decay before. If you've been eager to try your hand at monochromatic makeup, these pink-themed hues are just what you're looking for.
Sephora Beauty Insider Community Reviews: "I know I get way too excited about makeup, but I just bought this palette and it made my month. I tested the palette in-store first and it's so versatile! You can use the really light colors for a soft, glowing look, or the darker ones for a more burgundy, rosy look, or a variety of combinations. Buy this palette!" — Rachel845
"I love the color scheme of the shades in this palette. They are perfect for Spring, which is around the corner, and make for beautiful eye looks. Overall, it is great." — Joseem
Violet Voss Like a Boss Pro Eyeshadow Palette
The Lowdown: If there's any eyeshadow palette we ladies needs right now, it's the new Like a Boss Pro Eyeshadow Palette ($45) from Violet Voss. Every themed shade name will have you saying "yaaaas!" as you simultaneously swipe the buttery pigments onto your eyes. Plus, the more deep and sultry tones provide a nice juxtaposition to Spring's traditionally pastel hues.
Sephora Beauty Insider Community Reviews: "Love this palette! It is amazing for doing halo eyes!" — Hailey327822
"Violet Voss is a brand that I've wanted to get my hands on. The variety of colors just knocks you out. The quality is fantastic and the pigmentation is like royalty. A definite must!" — shatley
