Natasha Denona has done it again. Just when I think she has created the most beautiful palette, she creates another amazing launch, even better than the last. Although I think each palette is beautifully unique and different in its own way.
Natasha’s latest is the I need a warm eyeshadow palette ($69) and has the most beautiful combination of neutral and neutral-warm tones. It is absolutely stunning and perfect in every way. On my medium tanned skin, this pulls more neutral-warm, but if you’re being fair, it would probably be warmer. Available now at Sephora and Ulta Beauty.
This palette has a beautiful combination of matte and shimmer. She has a new formula for her mattes that she calls “slip cream matte” and you have to touch the shadows in real life to understand how powdery yet creamy they are. The shimmers have a good range with smooth shimmer and then some more shimmery metallics.
There are enough variations in this palette to create a complete look from soft base, soft creases, deeper shades for soft lining and then lots of shimmers for different tops or layers.
Samples below:
I wasn’t able to get a good detail of the eye look, but she has some great videos on her Instagram feed that really capture the details and shade variations in action. Here’s a look I wore: Mellow, Vim, Flashover, Fervor and Push. Also wearing:
By popular demand I made samples next to her I need a bare palette (review here) and her Golden Palette (also revised here). I think they are all very different in beautiful ways. Each palette will look different on you depending on your skin tone and undertone. I Need a Nude pulls me more neutral-cool while Golden pulls me more like a neutral. This I Need a Warm is warmer, but more neutral-warm to my skin tone.
I Need a Hot vs. I Need a Nude
I need a hot one against gold
Bottom line 10/10. The textures and pigments are amazing, easy to blend, richly pigmented and long lasting. I think this is the best she’s released to date and I can’t wait to see her next creation.
