which eye palette?

[ijack]

I want some new eyeshadow. I wear mostly neutral colors and purples. Don't really need shimmer because I don't wear it to work and have plenty of shimmer options.
I think the naked palette has enough matte options for me

but I also think this LM palette is gorgeous

I have the Naked palette and I would say only 3 of the shadows are really matte. Most have shimmer.

I think the LM palette is gorgeous and looks like it has more matte shadows. I'd go with the LM.

I would go with the Laura Mercier pallet because I have the Naked one and most of them are shimmer. Three of them are not shimmer. Agree with the PP.

The Naked palette is almost all shimmer. I think Naked and Buck are the only matte shades. I am getting the LM palette in this Sephora sale and I am so excited! It is so pretty!

The Naked Basics palette is mostly matte. I think the white color has a hint of shimmer, but the rest are matte.

I like the Too Faced Matte Eyes palette. I find the Naked palettes to be too shimmery and too brown for me. Too Faced Naked Eyes is my favorite, but it is probably too shimmery for what you want.

The naked and most Urban Decay shadows are very shimmery. I would look in to The Balm Meet Matte Nude. I can't say enough good things about this pallet! Generally it's $42 but if you keep a look out at Hautelook you can catch it on sale for $21. The colors are very pigmented and buttery soft w/out much fallout. I have had mine for over a year and it still looks brand new because you barely need to dip your brush in to the shadow! Works best over a primer but really so good. Google it for swatches! The only thing that would make this pallet more perfect is if they had a light and medium purple.

The link to the LM palette isn't working.  But if you are looking to continue wearing neutrals/purples, Naked 1 might not be your best bet.  It's thin on purples (Hustle is about as close as it gets), and Buck & Naked are really the only two mattes.  I wear neutrals & purples, and have Naked 1 + a single shade of Bobbi Brown that I use with it.  It's not a perfect solution but I like the end result enough to have been complacent about looking for another palette.

It sold out during the sale, but I bought it and love it. It's very pretty!
