Pat McGrath Labs Mothership X: Moonlit Seduction Eyeshadow Palette ($128)

I always say I do a Black-owned face, and my eyeshadow is a major part of the equation. No brand delivers pigmented, dazzling color like Pat McGrath Labs, which is a testament to the founder — who is widely considered the greatest makeup artist of our time. This palette features blendable hues ranging from the smoky "XTreme Nocturne" shade to the mesmerizing metallic pink "VR Sextasy" shade. The makeup lover on your list will thank you.
