If there’s one makeup product I love beyond anything – it’s eyeshadow palettes. I love eyeshadow palettes and I own quite a few of them. I love how they offer countless opportunities and give room to creativity – you can’t say the same of a foundation or a lipstick.
One of my biggest palettes with tons of colours is NYX Beauty School Dropout Freshman palette. It has 32 eyeshadows and 12 colours for face (blush, highlight, bronzer). It’s perfect for someone, who loves big palettes with lots of different colours. It’s also great for someone, who appreciates a palette, that does it all – eyes, face and brows – because obviously you can use the eyeshadows on your brows too.
I thought it would be fun to use this palette four days in a row and combine all the makeup looks in one post. It was also a challenge for myself – owning so many palettes I sometimes forget to use some of them or I don’t give the palettes their opportunity to show their full potential. So here are my four makeup looks done with the NYX Beauty School Dropout Freshman palette.
If you are looking for tutorials, you can find my tutorials done with the palette HERE and HERE.
Look 1 – Classic look with neutrals
Basically a very classic look with neutral colors. I love that shimmer color on my lid! The red lipstick is my go-to.

Look 3 – Lilac & cool-toned
