Add Some Shimmer

Use an allover shimmer shade and tie it together with some dewy highlighter and glassy, glossy lips for next-level glowing glam.
Glowy Bronze

Try something legitimately soft with your Soft Glam Palette. This subtle bronzed look—complete with black eyeliner—is perfect for any occasion. (Pro tip: Take the light, shimmery Fairy shade from the palette to the inner corners of your eye to get this fresh, wide-awake look.)
Classic Cut Crease
Try a classic cut crease eyeshadow look with varying shades of brown, and pair it with a fresh, deep lipstick shade.
Rosy All Over

Maybe it's the rose gold hair, or maybe it's the monochrome blush-and-eyeshadow moment. In any case, this rosy look is the perfect way to use the pinks in the palette, as far as I'm concerned—and of course, the vampy lip color is an on-point choice to balance out the super-sweet pinks.
Sparkle & Shine

I'm adding this to my New Year's Eve makeup inspo ASAP (although I'll probably end up recreating it for a regular old night on the town). In any case, this shimmery, silvery look will have you looking like a disco ball in the best way possible. Just add winged liner, and finish off the look with soft, pared-down makeup everywhere else.
Matte Perfection
For a look you can recreate again and again, sweep a darker matte hue from the palette on the creases of your lids, a lighter matte hue on the base of your lids, and add some major liquid eyeliner. Matte foundation and shine-free burgundy lipstick take the final "all matte everything" look to the next level.
Highlight on Point
![Woman with highlighted skin and soft glam eye makeup](https://www.byrdie.com/thmb/XKKahuSuQPdVe_WrWUF80mEVYzs=/1500x0/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc()/170171304_283846089949389_488179122175861977_n-dc269c9443ad49b38b8beefe3a0c9539.jpg)
A shimmery shadow calls for a luminating highlighter to match, and I totally dig the way makeup artist Aylin worked the highlighter into the look to really pull it together.
Metallic Magic
![Woman with silver and black eyeshadow, head wrap, and glossy lips](https://www.byrdie.com/thmb/qDnHEMEpso6hv6ApX-DIeadkO6s=/1500x0/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc()/123329265_199670178236075_6203565807805342633_n-4e501f6b6f534327bf07dae677272ae5.jpg)
This eyeshadow color is on point. First off—and this is important—remember to never forget eyeshadow primer before getting started on your look. Then, apply a saturated, metallic hue (like this rich silvery shade) in coats—using either your fingers or your fave eyeshadow brush—until it's no longer remotely sheer. Lastly, add some black liner and mascara and get ready to turn heads.
Sultry Smoky Eye
You definitely do want this smoke. Sweep some of the charcoal shades under your eyes as well for a dramatic smoky eye look perfect for nights on the town and beyond. Complete the look with light-reflecting highlighter and a deep nude lip, and voilà.
Out-to-There Wings
Take your soft glam look to the next level with out-to-there wings and a perfectly blended mix of metallics, browns, and bronzes. (Pro tip: Q-tips and makeup remover are your best friends when attempting a look like this.)
Soft & Subtle
![Woman with soft glam eyeshadow, neutral pink lips, and flushed cheeks](https://www.byrdie.com/thmb/PIFqjDSNLK1Uz-fLZhhB74kHZyc=/1500x0/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc()/143379815_243153847349747_3034436891697015681_n-7002290d86b24762bbaf5a0da88f8973.jpg)
Enhance your natural beauty with soft shades in natural, earthy tones—all you need is a little eye pencil and mascara to complete your eye look. It's the Soft Glam Palette version of no-makeup makeup, essentially.
Pretty in Pink
![Woman with soft glam pink makeup look and curled blowout](https://www.byrdie.com/thmb/hJHXLCq3GwuISgEOK8ih4JhvFcw=/1500x0/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc()/209570343_784234468841619_1126194245821140356_n-c379754c8bca450891e5955b2c489ab3.jpg)
Soft pink shadow paired with matching pink lips? You can't go wrong. And the black liquid liner that completes the eye look is the perfect finishing touch, as far as I'm concerned.
Shades of Nude
![Woman with nude makeup, tinted glossy lips, and black winged liner](https://www.byrdie.com/thmb/JxYP5yRSbImiBKnrspQUirsFtlo=/1500x0/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc()/118712012_117508029905817_2358595312872036438_n-5c57ab7329be42e3bfe9817f8548aa70.jpg)
Dramatic black winged eyeliner is always a "yes," and this contrast against matte nude face makeup and shadow takes things to the next level. (We're forever getting inspired by "goth" makeup here at Byrdie.)
Royal Blush
We're all for a monochrome look. This deep blush eyeshadow (complemented by a dose of shimmer) combined with pink lips and cheeks is chef's kiss. Bonus points for the matching pink top, too.
All the Drama
![Creator wears blushed cheeks, nude glossy lips, and full glam smoky eye](https://www.byrdie.com/thmb/0aw6YjFh1-gKbm_OEwBomwbEhMk=/1500x0/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc()/120293796_194161975425061_4447889065788035909_n-077dc44e4081468eae1109c0b9d8543f.jpg)
Soft glam might be somewhat of a misnomer, because you certainly don't have to keep things "soft." In fact, you definitely should bring the drama sometimes, because this palette is ready and able—just check out this dramatic and metallic graphic eyeshadow look.
Classic Cat-Eye
You can't go wrong with classic cat-eye liner—and this dramatic winged look still feels fresh with a subtle sweep of shimmery shadow from the Soft Glam Palette. Also, can we talk about her highlighter here, too? Totally on point.
'90s Vibes
![Woman with soft glam eye makeup, long lashes, flushed cheeks, and tan lips](https://www.byrdie.com/thmb/sPpMUbg_ce5RUoMaGe4LkJNfVkk=/1500x0/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc()/123886977_730312424510355_2850317642032146173_n-095d6a95a4634b7b8c7e831618152aaa.jpg)
The Soft Glam Palette is chock-full of earthy nudes and browns, which makes it the perfect accessory for all your future '90s looks. The hoops and mahogany lipstick are just the cherry on top for this gorgeous throwback glam.
