Christmas party ideas 2017 – From bargain hunters to Instagram fans, we reveal the best eyeshadow palettes on the high street
The eyeshadow palette is your make up bag's most versatile item
IF there is one product you need for party season, it’s an eyeshadow palette.
As the most versatile item in your make-up bag, you can create a vast amount of looks to suit any style.
Here, CARLY HOBBS picks her high street faves.
BEST FOR: BARGAIN HUNTERS
A great mix of beautiful bronzes, bright blues and a touch of gold, Rimmel Magnifeyes Colour Edition Palette in Bold, (£8.99, ) is a fabulous buy.
It’s the best value, but doesn’t compromise on pigment.
BEST FOR: INSTAGRAM FANS
If you love a look that is sure to get you likes on social media then the Huda Obsessions Palette in Smokey, (£25, ), is the one to treat yourself to.
Nine rich, deep, natural colours are on offer and each blends beautifully over the next. It suits all skin tones to help anyone up the glam factor.
Team with black winged liner.
BEST FOR: PARTY NIGHT
Pocket-money prices with high-end fashion finishes are up for grabs if you select the Topshop Limited Edition Glitter Eyeshadow Palette in Virtual Reality, (£15, ).
It mixes just enough glitter with a lot of shimmer to give a grown-up glam effect.
BEST FOR: CREATIVES
If you’re a confident make-up lover, invest in the Urban Decay Heavy Metals Palette, (£43, ).
From brights to classics it has 20 shimmering shades for you to play with.
BEST FOR: FASHION FIXES
Load up your make-up bag with Ciate London’s Chloe Morello Beauty Haul Vol II, (£45, ).
We love the soft peaches and nudes and deep coppers and khakis. Try using them to define and shape the eye, working colours below the lash line as well as on top.
This pretty palette comes with a complimentary liner, lippie and mascara too.
BEST FOR: NO MAKE-UP, MAKE-UP-ERS
Almost too beautiful to use, the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Edit Vol 3 (£69, ), is worth it. Not only do the high-quality shades last for years, this palette will also enhance your face like nothing else.
Sweep over eyes, press the pinks on to lips or the apples of the cheeks and use the golden hues to define brows and dust lightly over cheekbones.
AND Your pretty palettes deserve pretty tools and a bag to stash them all in.
Lucky that the MyKitCo.
Electro Make-up Brush Set, (£25, ), covers both.
