Beauty trends rotate between seasons just like fashion obsessions. Of course, what's currently in can vary depending on your go-to source. This summer everything from blurred lips to blonzer and even faux freckles are supposedly in. Instead of trying to sort it all out, we're going with a failsafe. Monochromatic makeup is easy to master with the assistance of the best monochromatic eyeshadow palettes.
Relying on only one color guarantees consistency, especially when it comes in several similar shades. You can simply flaunt one hue or layer all of them for a more defined look. Fortunately, there are quite a few stellar options. If your favorite eyeshadow color is pink, pick up Charlotte Tilbury's palette. Purple more your thing? See Lancôme's amethyst lineup. ColourPop's creation will have you over the moon, while Glossier's number has gold fans and their eyelids covered.
Here are the best monochromatic eyeshadow palettes to experiment with season after season.
