Best 3 Beginner-Friendly Korean Eyeshadow Palettes
No makeup look feels complete without a little something on the eyes—but if you're new to makeup, investing in a full palette can be a bit intimidating. Don't worry though, I’ve got you! Here are three beginner-friendly Korean eyeshadow palettes I absolutely love and always recommend to friends:
1. HINCE – New Depth Eyeshadow Palette
Shade: 03 Like A Scene
Price: $59
No. of Shadows: 10
Why I Love It: Every Hince palette includes a unique pop of colour so you can play around a bit more. The mattes are super creamy, and the glitter shades give that glossy, Douyin-style shimmer. Perfect for when you want your eyes to really pop.
2. DASIQUE – Shadow Palette
Shade: 05 Sunset Muhly
Price: $47 (Currently $42.30)
No. of Shadows: 9
Why I Love It: The mattes are really buildable with almost no fallout. The glitters? Super reflective, long-lasting, and they stay put! This one has a great balance of fine and chunky glitters for a versatile look. It's my personal favourite—easy to use and perfect for a quick 5-minute eye look.
3. ESPOIR – Real Eye Palette
Shade: Plum Soda
Price: $50 (Now $35)
No. of Shadows: 7
Why I Love It: This one’s like an all-in-one face palette! The larger pans work great as blush or contour, making it super convenient to pull your whole look together. Plus, the chunky glitter is unique and so pretty.
Whether you're just getting started or want something easy and wearable, these palettes are great picks. My top choice is the dasique palette because of how effortless and versatile it is—but honestly, you can’t go wrong with any of these.
