The one palette your summer makeup kit deserves

Here’s what our Review Crew® had to say about this versatile new eyeshadow palette

Beauty Crew Beauty Writer / February 11 2019

If you’re looking for the perfect summer makeup look, chances are you’re going to be reaching for bright, vibrant eyeshadows to make your peepers pop and complement your glowing skin.

Trouble is, finding that perfect go-to summer palette is a fickle thing as you often have to go with either a neutral palette that you can wear every day, or something that’s fun and bright that you can only really wear when you go out.

But Maybelline New York’s new Lemonade Craze Eyeshadow Palette has managed to tick both boxes in one affordable palette – it offers an impressive selection of both neutral and bold hues that are super easy to wear. Whether you’re going for an office-approved daytime look or want to add a little bit of weekend drama to make your eyes really stand out, this palette offers endless possibilities. 

Our Review Crew® team put this product to the test.

“I love the shades in this palette, I thought they blended nicely and easy to apply. I took it overseas with me, it was compact enough to travel with and the colours were perfect for a daytime beach look and great to wear on a night out as well.”
