Best of the Beauty Palettes and Brush Sets for Gifts and Treats

Firstly don’t say I didn’t warn you – many of these palettes will be gone long before the real start of the party season – so don’t be surprised if one or more (some are already hard to find) aren’t there just when you’re ready to order.  This is Christmas shopping season combined with party season so these goodies go very fast.

The brands to look out for in particular in terms of speedy selling out are Charlotte Tilbury, Bobbi Brown and Benefit – for example if you want to buy Benefit’s Blush Bar Cheekathon you better move fast because I could only see it at Escentual.

Palettes, whether for yourself or for a gift – and they’re perfect gifts for anyone who loves makeup – are your versatile friend at this time of year.  Whether you’re looking for a beauty palette to blush and brighten, or for a complete set of eyeshadows this is your place.  Some of these are designed to go with you anywhere, and others to look pretty on your makeup shelf.

I’ve included four brush sets to take along with you wherever you go as many palettes don’t come with a set of brushes.  Brush sets are also great gifts, when did you last update yours??

And finally, the all round winners in my opinion of these makeup palettes, because they do just about everything, are Bobbi Brown’s Deluxe Eye and Cheek Palette, and YSL’s Limited Edition Face Palette – this last is just about going going gone so grab it while you can……
