Makeup palettes are what a beauty junkie's dreams are made of. They're super-portable and give you tons of bang for your buck, they house the core colours you need to complete your look and, last but not least, they're pretty to look at (don't act like you don't mindlessly hoard beautiful makeup palettes too, okay?). Much to our excitement, many brands have been stepping up their game when it comes to releasing practical-but-adorable beauty palettes. Some of our favourite beauty brands now offer palettes with a creative twist such as killer colour offerings, innovative packaging, targeted results and just kick ass novelty concepts. To help you understand why we're so excited, here are four makeup palettes you need to splurge on now.
Smashbox Master Class-Lighting Theory Palette ($75)
In true professional photography studio fashion, Smashbox once again creates a product we can fall in love with for an endless list of reasons: This palette features full range of face products. Yep, I’m talking a full colour corrector range, creamy contour and highlighters, three essential powder blushes, 16 award-winning Photo Op Eye Shadows and four how-to-get-the-look cards with step-by-step directions. What’s even more awesome about the selection of products housed in this photo-book style palette? Each of the products and shades were tested to look flawless when worn in the variety of lighting situations you’ll face in a day including everything from fluorescent office lights and moody cocktail hour.
