In our quest to get back in the habit of “slaying” by day, we’ve discovered some of the best shimmer eyeshadow palettes for Spring/Summer 2021. Whether you’re looking for everyday shimmer palettes, colourful shimmer palettes, or those trend-forward wet-look shimmer palettes, we’ve compiled the very best for you.
