It's the holiday season, and there are SO MANY makeup kits out there to choose from. So, how do you choose??
All of the pretty colors, the fancy packaging and options, can be overwhelming. Instead of just picking the first thing you see, take a few extra minutes and really STUDY the colors AND the contents of the kits. Some have eyeshadows, blush, highlighters, lip colors, cream eyeliners, mini applicators, etc., etc. My advice is to make sure there is a good ratio of MATTE eyeshadows to SHIMMER shades. Palettes that have a lot of neutral shades (think earthy, browns, plums, creams, taupes) are always a safe bet. It's great to have bold colors in there, too, but know that those shades will PROBABLY be used the least. There are usually testers available, so ask for a disposable applicator and try some of the shades on the back of your hand to see if the color you see in the kit, is what ACTUALLY true to color on your skin.
With so many great kits to choose from, you're sure to find one that fits your style, and your budget!
