10 Best Local Eyeshadow Palettes in the Philippines 2025 | Buying Guide Reviewed by Dermatologist

Your skin’s undertone is the color underneath the surface of your skin that influences your skin’s hue. There are three undertones: warm, cool, and neutral. When picking an eyeshadow, it would be wise to consider your undertone, so you can find colors that will complement your skin.

To get the most out of your eyeshadow palette, choose one with matte, satin, and shimmery finishes. Most local eyeshadow palettes have all finishes available, which will allow you to create different day and night looks for all kinds of occasions. The possibilities are endless!

Get a classy daytime look with matte eyeshadows that will contour your eyes beautifully, making you look more awake. If you want to add a subtle shine to your eye makeup, use a satin shade to add a hint of glimmer to your look. Lastly, if you want to make your eyes pop, especially at night, use a shimmery shade to finish off your makeup. 

The size of your palette will largely depend on your usage. If you tend to use nudes or neutral colors for your everyday looks, a palette with a few basic shades would be enough. They also usually have a smaller form factor, which is suitable for both those who do their makeup at home and those who are on the go. They're also more convenient to use for touch-ups.

However, if you like creating different looks, from natural to dramatic, you'll need a palette with a variety of colors, shades, and finishes. Palettes like this tend to be bigger and aren't as convenient to travel with, so they're suitable for those who mainly do their makeup at home. 

Most local eyeshadow palettes come with either a mirror or an applicator or both to streamline your makeup routine. This means that you won’t need to have a separate mirror or applicator in order to get solid eye makeup, which is very useful, especially if you like bringing smaller purses or traveling.
