Need a good eyeshadow palette to bring you from day to night (at the very least)? Scroll through our list of top Teenage Beauty Awards 2017 contenders.

NYX Perfect Filter Shadow Palette, $32

nyx eyeshadow PROA mixture of shimmery and matte shades, the colours on the NYX palette are super pigmented and provide a brilliant intensity of colour on your eyes. And it’s easy to blend out as well. But while this palette is quite portable, note that it doesn’t come with a mirror or eyeshadow brush – mild inconveniences in exchange for an affordable, high quality palette. 

IT Cosmetics Superhero Eye Palette, $68

IT cosmetics eyeshadow PROPacked with creamy hues that’s suitable for all skintones, this IT Cosmetics Superhero palette is an everyday essentials-type of palette. And the formula is infused hydrolyzed collagen, peptides and antioxidants, plus innovative Superhero Pigment Power Technology to not only give an anti-ageing boost, but also velvety-smooth pigments that’ll stay on all day. 

essence All About Toffee Eyeshadow, $7.50

essence eyeshadow PROThis eyeshadow palette has garnered polarising reviews due to it having relatively similar shades – which might make branching out into different looks a tad difficult. That is not to say that it does not have its fair share of fans because people love it for its easy-to-blend formula as well as the fool-proof colour choices that are great for first timers. At an extremely affordable price tag (the cheapest in our list!), this palette definitely gives you plenty of bang for your buck.

TBS Eyeshadow PROArmed with rich, earthy shades that take you from a neutral day look to a gorgeous smoky eye at night, The Body Shop’s Down To Earth eyeshadow palette certainly lives up to its name.

But because the pigments are super rich and concentrated, make sure you apply it with a light hand. 

Catrice The Modern Matt Collection Eyeshadow Palette, $9.50catrice eyeshadow PROWhile the hues on the Catrice eyeshadow palette isn’t as pigmented as the others on this list, that ironically makes it great for beginners as it allows you to layer on and build your eyeshadow gradually instead of messing around with strong colours. Not only that, the palette consists of neutral, matte shades that’ll fit right in with an everyday look.
