Panda eyes are back. This timeless and edgy look made a fierce comeback during Fashion Week, and we’ve got you covered. Whether you’re going for a sultry smoky eye or a bold graphic look, these eyeshadow palettes will help you create runway-worthy masterpieces.
VALENTINO BEAUTY | Color-Flip Eyeshadow Palette
Let your eyes do the talking. This palette is your ticket to achieving the ultimate sultry and smouldering black eye makeup with a touch of glitz. Featuring a rich and intense black eyeshadow shade, the highly pigmented formula ensures a deep and dramatic colour payoff. The smooth and blendable texture makes it easy to create a seamless gradient and build up the intensity to your desired level.
GUERLAIN | Ombres G Quad Eyeshadow Palette
We believe the key to a good black eyeshadow is rich pigmentation. The finely milled formula ensures smooth and precise application, while the high colour payoff is bold and striking. This palette’s range of complementary shades help to add depth and dimension to any look. Experiment with different combinations to achieve your desired intensity — from a subtle smoky effect to an intense and dramatic look.
HUDA BEAUTY | Pretty Grunge Eyeshadow Palette
What’s in a name? Two black eyeshadow options, apparently. Featuring Grunge (described as a black eye “gloss”) and Renegade (an ultra-black, creamy metallic); unleash your inner rebel. Let your eyes make a striking statement with perfectly executed panda eyes.
