Swatches Of The Huda Beauty Mercury Retrograde Eyeshadow Palette

There are 9 mattes and 9 shimmers in all, all with various textures. There are duo-chromes, satin shimmers, more intense shimmers, and dramatic foiled hues in this collection. The 6 shades on the left come in three groupings of six shadows, giving you a delicate rosy effect. The middle six tones provide a warm peachy background with a lavender accent.

Finally, the six hues on the right combination produce a neutral appearance with a mint green punch. This palette swatches wonderfully, as one would expect from a higher-end eyeshadow pallet. For any fun poppy appearance, there is a decent range of depth.

How To Create Euphoria-Inspired Using The Huda Beauty Mercury Retrograde Eyeshadow Palette

Cassie’s Purple Cosmos

To start, prep your eyelids with “Crash”, a neutral base shade, around the whole area. With a dense eyeshadow brush, pack it with the shade “Ultraviolet” on your inner and outer lid. Don’t be afraid that the colour doesn’t pay off enough at first because creating vibrant colours requires layering.

Therefore, blend and layer the shade until you’re happy with the payoff. With a tapered brush, take the shade “Nebula” lightly and tap gently across your lid to create a starstruck look.

Toasted Green Maddy

Maddy is known in the show for her extravagant looks that we are all wanting to copy. Prep your eyelid with eye primer to ensure the many glitters you pack on isn’t going anywhere. Start with a neutral base shade and with the pad of your finger, take “Gold Glitch” and cut crease it in your inner corner. Next, pack on the shade “Off Balance” above your crease to your outer corner.

Then take a pointed brush and layer for a deeper depth in your outer corner and your lower lash line. Use “Karma” to deepen the shade depth. Afterwards, take “Mercury” on a flat brush and apply to the centre of your lid before gliding the inner lower lash line.

Finalise the look with a dash of “Supermoon” in your inner corner to brighten your eyes. Clean up the edge with concealer for a sharper look and if you want to truly manifest your inner Maddy, add some rhinestones for elevated bling.

Ruby Kat Liner

Ruby is always rocking the best graphic liner look but have you thought of adding some shimmer? Start your lids with eye primer and “Crash” all over and blend. With a flat brush, take “Cosmic” and pat it all over and above your lid.

Finally, take an angled brush and pack it with “Hot Mess” to make your desired liner. Pro-tip, you can lightly wet your brush with micellar water to make your colour more pigmented and it stays on so much longer.
