Nude eyeshadow palettes

Helloooo! I thought I'd do a post for you today on my Nude-y Eyeshadow palettes. I love them all and I really wanted to share them with you.

Jemma Kidd I-Ris Enhancers - 02 Green



- £22 - 

This is a lovely palette! It has three colours of baked eyeshadows - one a light shimmery brown, another a darker less shimmery brown and also a dark purple (which remains unused!). I picked this up from TK-Maxx for £5, and there was only this one that is meant for green eyes, which I don't have (Mine are brown). I still bought it because I thought that at least the other two colours I would use. They are moderately pigmented, nothing over the top, but they are really beautiful colours!

Rimmel GlamEyes Quad Eye Shadow - 019 Sun Safari



- £6.99 -

I got this when I went to the clothes show a few months ago now. It was in a Rimmel goodie bag (The whole bag cost £5) so I got this for a good price, considering there was more than 5 items of a good value in the bag anyway. This palette has a really nice set of colours, my favourite being the top colour,  also the one at the top of the swatches. I find it is a lovely green-toned-brown and it works really well in a smokey eye. The two side colours can be a little red for my liking, but tey are all lovely and shimmery too.

Topshop Smokey Eye Palette - Golden Aura



- £12 -

This is my absolute favourite nude palette. As it is designed as a smokey eye palette, all of the colours tone together and really look beautiful in a smokey eye. They also work well as single eyeshadows, the third one along makes a great all-over base for the eye, and the gradual shimmer in all of them is really effective and looks great on. These shadows are all reasonably pigmented, and stay on all day with a good primer.

MUA Eyeshadow Palette - Undressed





- £4 -

I know, I know. Everyone seems to have this palette now, and I only recently jumped on the bandwagon and caved in. I am SO glad I did! At first I didn't really believe the MUA hype, because I thought that for £4, if the eyeshadows are sort-of good then you have got your moneys worth, I didn't realise that they were this good! They are massively, massively pigmented and I love them for it! There are some colours, obviously, that I don't like as might and that I won't use as much (such as the last blue shade), but there are some that I absolutely adore (such as the far left on the second row). 
I also love how there is a mix of matte and shimmer shades, and the matte shades can double as eyebrow fillers!

What do you think of nude palettes? Do you think there are some awesome ones that I haven't included?
