Love your makeup? Love getting in all those steps with your bronzer, blush, highlighter, eyeshadow and more? What if you could have all of these or most of these in a single palette? Wouldn’t it be super convenient to use and carry around? Imagine heading to that bestie’s destination wedding and being able to whip out just a single palette that gets the job done – convenient indeed!
Why We Love Multi-purpose Face Palettes:
- They allow you to achieve those well-contoured glam looks and popping lit cheekbones with just a single palette.
- Convenient, functional and handy for makeup junkies who want to cut down on the number of products and palettes they carry with them, say while travelling or heading to a party or even for makeup artists.
- For beginners, these palettes are a great introduction to these products. So, you don’t have to invest in multiple products from the get-go, since they’re all in one.
- Not sure about what colour of blush or highlighter will suit your skin tone? Most of these palettes come with shade options suited to specific skin tones. So, if you pick a palette for your medium to tan skin, you can rest assured the shades will complement each other and your skin tone.
- Last and definitely not the least, they are travel-friendly and do not take up too much space in your vanity pouch or add to the weight of your luggage!
