When it comes to spring and summer, I love sporting a fresh faced, simple make-up look. It's no secret that eye make-up isn't really my forte, but after trying and testing a few over the last month, I have picked out my favourites at the moment. These nude/bronze palettes vary from drugstore to higher end, but are all really versatile and equally as pretty!
Mac Showstopper Quad: (From top left) Oh my darling, Jest, Mineralism, Showstopper.
This quad contains really wearable neutral colours, with a peachy pink shadow to mix up the traditional nude quad a little. The bad news: This palette was limited edition and is now no longer available, however can be found in some outlet stores.
MUA- Undress Me Too.
This 12 shade palette mixes neutural shadows with gold/bronze metallics. This is a perfect beginners palette due to the price (£4!) and range of colours which are great to experiment with. My favourite and most used shadow are Reveal and Wink (3 & 4, bottom row). The only downfall to these shadows is they aren't as long lasting as some of the others, but still very pretty all the same.
Urban Decay Naked 3.
I only actually bought this palette last week (I know, I must be the last person to the party) and I LOVE it. The colours are more pink toned nudes but equally as pretty and very pigmented. This is a little more on the pricey side (£38) but i'd definitely say it's worth the investment. Oh, and I almost forgot to mention there is practically a rose gold eye-shadow (Trick). A ROSE GOLD EYESHADOW (*love heart eyes emoji*)
Collection Eyes Uncovered Palette in Nude Bronze
This palette comes with 6 metallic bronze/ brown shadows. The colour payoff is great for a drugstore palette (I'd say some of the swatches were equally as pigmented as the Naked 3) and has both daytime and evening colours. They are compact enough to take in your handbag, and the best part is they only cost £3.99.
And they are my shadow favourites at the moment! What spring/summer palettes do you recommend?

Love all these nude palettes, I own the Naked 3 palette myself and use it all the time. You will love it! And I am getting a ton of use out of my Marc Jacobs eyeshadow palette right now in Lolita. Have you tried the Marc Jacobs shadows? They're amazing, would highly recommend!
