12 Of The Best Travel Palettes For A Holiday Make-Up Look
Holidays are a great time to shake up your make-up look. We think these palettes are perfect for playing with colour on sun-kissed skin.
Summer holidays are a great opportunity to step out of the norm, whether that’s your daily routine, your wardrobe – or your make-up looks. Having the time to relax means you can freely explore with different colours, textures and really make the most of your sun-kissed glow and that golden hour light. This week we have some tips when shopping for your holiday make-up looks, plus twelve palettes we love for a laid-back, summery skin feel.
Look for refillable palettes that you can invest in and top up for a sustainable approach.
Let on-counter make-up artists help show you how to get the most out of all the colours in your palette.
If you are buying a palette specifically for holiday, think about how your skin tone may change and the colours you choose. Sun-kissed skins can usually take warmer, bolder colours, so it’s a great opportunity to have fun with different hues.
If you are buying a ‘holiday palette’, bear in mind that most eye make-up palettes have an expiration date of one to two years, so be conscious of how often you will use it between trips to get the most wear out of it.
Look for palettes with a mix of textures to give you flexibility and ‘buildability’ with your looks. The great thing about palettes is that they’re designed for layering, so look for versatile shades you can wear from day to night.
It’s not just about the eyes. Ditch multiple bottles of foundation and pots of blush and concealer with a clever edit of base shades in creme textures for streamline packing.
