As POPSUGAR editors, we independently select and write about stuff we love and think you'll like too. If you buy a product we have recommended, we may receive affiliate commission, which in turn supports our work.
There are so many eye shadow palettes on the market, and new, limited-edition versions are launching all the time. This can make it hard to decide which are actually worth investing your money in. As editors, we try out each new launch and put them through vigourous testing to determine which are truly the best available. We've thought about everything, including how easy the shadows are to blend, how wearable or exciting the shades are, and how pigmented the powders are, to determine which are truly first-rate.
Ahead, you'll find stellar eye shadow palettes from luxurious brands like Anastasia Beverly Hills and affordable gems like NYX Professional Makeup.
