Palettes are the ultimate makeup multi-tasker. All your makeup needs compacted in cute little houses that are perfect for handbags, and the like. It’s a beauty win-win.
The makeup Gods are kind to us over at The Carousel HQ, and we are privy to the prettiest palettes around.
Therefore, we have plucked our latest palette faves for your perusal.
Bobbi Brown Sunkissed Eye Shadow Palette, $85
This opulent, metallic rose gold compact comprises four silky, complementary shades hand-selected by Ms. Bobbi Brown herself. With two matte shades and two sparkle-laden hues, defining your eyes has never been so sexy (or easy). The super finely milled pigments allow for seamless blending without any flaking or fall out, which makes for perfectly gilded eyes every time.
It Cosmetics Naturally Pretty Vol. 1 Matte Luxe Transforming Eyeshadow Palette, $62
When this super-dooper eye palette landed on our desks in a pile of dried petals, we knew this was going to be a beautifier. Comprising 14 universally flattering shades, these silk-infused eye shadows all come matte, but, with the magic mix of the Transforming Pearl shade, transform into luminous, pearly hues. Talk about multi-tasking – this has your lids covered.
Becca Jaclyn Hill Champagne Collection Face Palette, $89
Now, this glimmering, glittering, gilded delight is just too pretty to ruin. But, the colours are too good so we’re prepared to ravage away. A limited edition collaboration with Jaclyn Hill, the creator of the original Champagne Pop, this face palette features five iconic shades to give you a customised glow. You can either ride solo, or mix ‘n’ match two Shimmering Skin Perfectors in Champagne Pop and Prosecco Pop, and two hues of Mineral Blush in Amaretto and Pamplemousse. Then give your cheeks a little boozy flush with the Rosé Spritz Luminous Blush. Did someone say island getaway? Your skin will be thirsty for this drop.
Chantecaille Le Magnolia Eye and Cheek Palette, $125
The French brand endow everything they do with beauty; even the aesthetics of their product. Each limited edition eye and cheek colour has an artfully embossed magnolia in romantic watercolour shades of opalescent white, soft sage green, punchy coral and rich cocoa. Enriched with botanicals, the magnolia blooms with a philanthropic sentiment; to bring awareness to sustainable harvesting of wild plant ingredients, with 5% of proceeds sold donated to TRAFFIC to support their FairWild Standard.
Nude by Nature Highlight Palette, $39.95
This is highlighting made easy, and housed in a gilded compact with mirror for on-the-go glow. The three luminous shades add warmth and radiance to your face; a rich bronze to add definition and depth, a rose to add radiance and a champagne for instant sheen. The best part? An uber friendly price-tag.
