I go back to makeup and after years of being too edgy for lighter colors, I just don’t end up with good pastel shadows! When I use the lighter shades from my morph 35b they tend to look very chalky / powdery and it’s difficult to use a liquid liner on them. any recs for light shadows that look good / don’t have an awful texture would be appreciated 🙂 side note I’m super super pale so the pigmentation isn’t too bad

I am also pale and always really like Tarte. They are my favorite palettes and they just came out with this [one.](https://tartecosmetics.com/shop/tartelette-juicy-amazonian-clay-eyeshadow-palette-2034.html?dwvar_2034_color=multi&cgid=makeup-eyes-eyeshadow-palettes#start=1) I love all the light pinks and browns in it. And I know the color will be well pigmented, blend well and have minimal fall out.
I enjoy using the Beauty Bay Pastels palette, but they are very bright for pastels.
I’d avoid the Zoeva Sweet Glamour palette and the Sleek Whimsical Wonderland one, very unpigmented even over a white base, and also chalky and patchy.
