Korean eyeshadow palettes have sealed their place in many beauty vanities because of their longevity, colour payoff, and performance matched with a typically affordable price point. They may not be as strongly pigmented as Western eyeshadows because K-beauty usually leans towards subtle and natural looks, but they offer more than enough colour variations and amazing blendability that still allow for a little bit of experimentation.
Which K-celeb inspires your eye looks?
If you’re ready to wear soft but still noticeable eye looks (like BLACKPINK's Rose, True Beauty’s Moon Ga Yeong, Red Sky’s Kim Yoo Jung), these Korean eyeshadow palettes available in Singapore are the ones to check out ASAP.
