Product details

Two Essential Shadow Tap triangle palettes, 02 Rose Closer and 01 Portable Beige, on a pale lavender-blue surface beside a glass sphere and crushed shadow

Mini eyeshadow trio

A pocket-size triangle palette with three essential shades in a moist texture that sets on the lids without powdery fallout.

CLIO’s Essential Shadow Tap packs only the colours you reach for most into a mini triangle that’s easy to grip and fits into the smallest bag. The moist powder layers cleanly without clumping, with a soft, elegant glow rather than chunky pearl, which makes it an easy start for makeup beginners.
