Product details

Better Than Eyes palettes in Dry Ragras, Dry Rose and N01 Dry Willow Flower side by side on peach paper, between crumbled shadow and a glass cube

Four-shade eye palette

A small palette of soft, dried-flower colours, with fine mattes and a moist pearl glitter that wear neatly all day.

rom&nd’s Better Than Eyes puts four harmonious shades, from silky mattes to a glitter, in one compact palette. The mattes work like a primer shadow, evening out the lid and blending without caking or creasing. The glitter spreads smoothly for a sheer, opal-like sparkle that never looks heavy. Oil-blotting powders help the look stay sharp and neat from morning to night.

What’s inside

The ingredients doing the work

  • Silky emollient base

    The list opens with a light emollient, and skin-adhering powders help the fine particles press on evenly and cling without caking.

    No. 1, 6, 12 of 42 on the list

  • Oil-blotting powders

    Soft, absorbent powders that help control sebum on the lid, so the colour stays neat for longer.

    No. 2, 7, 27 of 42 on the list

  • Pearl and glitter

    Reflective flakes that give the glitter shade its moist, opal-toned sparkle.

    No. 18, 25, 26, 29 of 42 on the list

  • Macadamia seed oil

    A conditioning oil, near the end of the list.

    No. 41 of 42 on the list

How to use

Base, shade, sparkle

  1. 1

    Base

    Sweep the lightest matte over the whole lid to even it out, like a primer.

  2. 2

    Shade

    Blend the deeper mattes into the crease and along the lash line for definition.

  3. 3

    Sparkle

    Press the glitter onto the centre of the lid for a sheer, pearly point.

Crumbled taupe matte shadow beside a scatter of rosy pearl glitter on peach paper

Soft colour, neat finish

Fine mattes and a sheer pearl in muted dried-flower tones, made to stay put all day.

Good to know

  • Palettes here: Dry Ragras, Dry Rose and N01 Dry Willow Flower.
  • Contains carmine (CI 75470), a red colourant made from insects, so it is not vegan.
  • Glitter can fall onto the cheeks; apply eye makeup before base makeup or tap off the brush first.
  • Sold as a 6.5 g palette.
