Vote up the palette that is just as good as the real deal.
Makeup junkies are blessed because of all the multi-shade eyeshadow palettes. And other than the price, there's nothing not to love about so many compatible, blendable shades in one easy set. A designer palette can actually run anywhere from $40 to $80. Since so many palettes achieve god-tier status as soon as they’re released (Naked Palette, we’re looking at you!), it’s not unheard of for a palette to sell on eBay for hundreds of dollars. Nothing is worth that much money if you have these eyeshadow dupes, though!
Cheaper versions of eyeshadow palettes are out there, and this list covers the best palette dupes of all time. If you’re not ready to drop big bucks on the latest release from Anastasia Beverly Hills or Urban Decay, then look no further. These cheap eyeshadow palettes are a budget-conscious beauty lover's new best friends.
It's relatively easy to find great dupes for neutral shadows, but finding a great dupe for brights? That's a little harder. This under $10 NYX palette gives Viseart's $80 version a run for its money.
Looking for the perfect, bronze glow? You could get Kylie Cosmetics's Bronze Palette, which features nine shades for $42. Or, you could get 35 shades for less than $20 from Beauty Box. It's really a no-brainer.
Although Makeup Revolution's Ultra Eye Contour Light and Shade Palette matches almost shade-for-shade with Kat Von D's $48 version and could be picked up for less than $20, it's no longer available. Luckily, Milani's Everyday Eyes Eyeshadow Palette offers a few of these matte, peachy shades. Although it has fewer colors, at about $9 it's even less in price.
This palette from Catrice puts the essential in Essential Nude Collection! Even at it's almost-out-of-stock price of $30, it's a highly recommended dupe for the $62 Dior Eye Reviver Palette.
When compared to the $42, 14-shade palette from Anastasia Beverly Hills, Wet N Wild's Rose In The Air Palette holds its own. That's why it sold out almost immediately after its release! Try all of Wet N Wild's Icon 10 Pan Palettes for about $4.
