Makeup on the Low: 5 Best Eyeshadow Palettes Under $30

I like makeup. Wait that is definitely an understatement, I LOVE makeup. I am also currently a college student, a very broke college student. My makeup addiction can get very pricey so I am always on the look out for good quality products with a low price and today I am here to share some of the best, affordable eyeshadow palettes that I would recommend. Some high end eyeshadow palettes can cost up to $100 which is ridiculous and insane to me, but some awesome brands sell palettes that are just as good for a fraction of the cost.

1. Morphe 35M Boss Mood Palette $24

Okay Morphe is the loml. Their eyeshadow palettes never disappoint, the pigmentation is incredible and you get 35 shadows for a great price. This palette specifically is one of their newest releases. It is a mixture of colorful mattes and shimmers that you can use to create very bold looks. If you're like me and like bright eyeshadow looks then you will definitely love this palette.

2. Morphe 35O Nature Glow Palette $24

I could not talk about the best eyeshadow palettes without including this one. Yes I am aware that this is another Morphe palette but hear me out. This palette is a warm neutral palette, consisting of mostly browns but with some pops of orange and red. It also comes with 35 mattes and shimmers and in my opinion this is the perfect palette for the fall.

3. Juvia's Place Zulu Palette $20

Juvia's Place has some of the most pigmented and bright eyeshadows that I have ever used. This palette may not be for a person that prefers soft and natural looks, but if you love pops of colors in your eyeshadow then I 100% recommend. These colors layer and blend very well and I recommend you wet your eyeshadow brush to give it some extra pigmentation. Use any of these 9 shadows to create a rainbow look or to add some color to a simple look.

4. Colourpop Yes, Please! Palette $16

Colourpop is another brand that never disappoints. All of their makeup is sooo affordable and great quality. This 12 shadow palette has some beautiful warm shadows, both mattes and shimmers. This palette would be perfect if you want to create a sunset shadow look or any fall look honestly.

5. BH Cosmetics Blushed Neutrals Palette $16

Last but certainly not least we have BH Cosmetics. This palette is for the girl that loves to play around with warm tones especially pinks. It includes 26 shades and the 5 in bigger pans can be used as blushes as well. You can get so much product, really good quality too, for such an affordable price. You really can't go wrong with a BH palette!

As a makeup enthusiast (and lowkey hoarder) I can assure you that these eyeshadow palettes are amazing. Why spend over $45 on a palette when you can spend under $30 and get pretty much the same quality. Most high end brands charge you just because they are brand name but their palettes usually only include about 16 shades, so save your money girls and try out these palette. I promise you wont be disappointed!
