If you are feeling overwhelmed and don’t know what palette to choose, just take a deep breath and relax. Whether you are new to beauty products or a seasoned makeup expert, here are five of the best eyeshadow palettes that are going to make your eye looks vivid and radiant:

1. Urban Decay Naked Heat palette ($54)
Although quite pricey, this eyeshadow palette is perfect for both day and night looks. Urban Decay’s Naked Heat palette features 12 gorgeous shimmery shades for work or school, but it can also take you straight to a party in the evening. A dual-ended brush is included along with the palette to help you achieve countless looks. The palette is allergy tested, 100 percent fragrance free and ophthalmologist tested, so consumers can use it without worry.

2. Anastasia Beverly Hills Modern Renaissance palette ($42)
Bringing back Renaissance colors is Anastasia’s Modern Renaissance palette, which is sold at Sephora. The palette features 14 shades that let you create day to night looks. From ultra-matte finish shades like Tempera to shimmer golds like Primavera with a metallic finish, these pigmented and easy-to-blend eyeshadows allow you to use less product to achieve an elegant appearance.

3. Morphe 25A Bronzed Mocha palette ($19)
Creamy, pigmented and blendable are the three words that best describe Morphe’s 25A Bronzed Mocha palette. Bronzed Mocha, which is available at Morphe, offers versatile colors that range from deep browns and spicy creams to fiery metallics and shimmering taupes. With these earthy eyeshadows, you can create eye looks that are subtle and natural as well as sexy and dramatic.

4. Morphe 9C Jewel Crew pallet ($12)
Morphe’s 9C Jewel Crew mirrored palette contains nine creamy, highly pigmented and extremely blendable shades inspired by precious gemstones. These stunning shades are great for creating glitter glam looks. Another benefit of the 9C palette is that you won’t have to worry about being without a palette when traveling. Due to the palette’s small size, it can be taken everywhere.

5. James Charles x Morphe palette ($39)
With beauty and entertainment YouTuber James Charles’ 39 shade palette, the sky’s the limit. It includes both matte and shimmer formulas selected by Charles. Each pan has a deeply pigmented shade which blends beautifully and naturally. From neutral to crazy bold, there are zero limits with this palette.
