DIY Cool Berries Eyeshadow Palette

DIY Cool Berries Eyeshadow Palette

Today I’m bringing you the DIY Cool Berries Eyeshadow Palette that you requested! I hit up my collection for cool-toned eyeshadows to share with you, primarily in the pinks, purples, mauves, and reds color families. I did include a few greys and taupes because they’re also cool toned and in the case of Nabla, I wanted to swatch the entire Christmas Mauve collection I bought. Now, you don’t need to buy every single eyeshadow in this post! Pick and choose your favorites from the colors you see here to build your perfect palette.

Makeup Geek PR samples. Everything else purchased by me.

I love my GlamTech palettes! I had them custom made by an Orlando etsy seller, GlamTech. You can get just about any design that you want handmade by GlamTech. These are what I buy now instead of z-palettes. They’re more sturdy and I love that I can get custom designs. They also travel well.

I actually have bought a ton of Anastasia Beverly Hills eyeshadow singles (see swatches). I really need to reswatch them all. For this DIY Cool Berries Eyeshadow Palette post, I focused on these 10 shades from Anastasia because I felt like they were the best suited for a berries palette. These are some of my all-time favorite Anastasia Beverly Hills eyeshadows. I especially love Pink Champagne, Macaroon, Baby Cakes, Buon Fresco, Gemstone, Enchanted and Rosette.

You can buy Anastasia Beverly Hills Eyeshadow Singles at Sephora, Ulta and Anastasia’s website. They are $12 individually, but you get discounts if you buy 4 or 8 at a time.

Sydney Grace is available at Sydney Grace Co. They range from $5 to $6.10.

Colour Pop DIY Cool Berries Eyeshadows

Colour Pop Eyeshadow Singles are available at Colour Pop. They’re $5 each.

medium plum purple matte

I love Makeup Geek and when going through my Makeup Geek eyeshadows vs. what is currently available on the Makeup Geek website I got very depressed. Makeup Geek has discontinued so many colors that would have been perfect for this DIY Cool Berries Eyeshadow Palette! Here are the ones I could include. I especially love Masquerade, Caitlin Rose, Curfew, and Petal Pusher. I just couldn’t believe the number of purples that Makeup Geek has killed off, like Duchess, Motown, Taboo, and Blacklight, just to name a few. I hope Makeup Geek releases a ton of new eyeshadows soon!

Makeup Geek Eyeshadows are available at MakeupGeek.com. They’re $6 to $10 each.

The perfect mauve-taupe Ultra Matte.

She’s in Parties

Meanstreak
She is the prettiest deep plum Ultra Matte Shade.

Assimilate
Perfect deep taupe matte.
Deep cool taupe matte.

With as much as I love to use the Melt She’s in Parties stack, especially Last Caress and Meanstreak, I realized I needed to include them in my DIY Cool Berries Eyeshadow Palette. Last Caress, Meanstreak and Assimilate are more on the smoky, burnt side as opposed to brights, but I think they fit right in. Meanstreak looks very brown-toned plum in the swatch but when you use it on top of a purple shade, all the purple tones come out. It’s lovely. See my Melt She’s in Parties Stack review.

Melt is available at MeltCosmetics. They’re $17 individually or $48 for most stacks.

I had only a few shades to include from Sugarpill, but I really wanted them here since they’re available worldwide. I only own these 3 colors from Suva Beauty, which I love, and definitely needed to be included in my DIY Cool Berries Eyeshadow Palette.

Sugarpill is available at BeautyLish and Sugarpill. They’re $11 to $16 each.  Suva Beauty is available at Bloomingdale’s and Suva Beauty. They’re $11 each. JD Glow is available at JDGlow. They’re $7.50 each.

Cruelty-free Makeup Look

LASplash Medusa liner absolutely deserves to be in this post because it’s a beautiful maroon / wine / burgundy / oxblood type shade that’s extremely hard to find and goes so well with these cool berry shades. I wish it was available in a pen like the Kat Von D Tattoo Liner in Trooper.

DIY Cool Berries Eyeshadow Palette Video

The above video will be live at 12 pm EST on Wednesday, March 14, 2018.

As I mentioned above, you don’t need every single color in my DIY Cool Berries Eyeshadow Palette post. I’m sure some of these shades appeal to you more than others. With the exception of Melt Cosmetics She’s in Parties Stack being $48, these are all pretty affordable since they range from like $5 to $16. You can put together a great palette with a few of these from each brand.

Which colors do you like best from my DIY Cool Berries Eyeshadow Palette? Let me know below!
