A high-valued makeup palette can be a wonderful gift option for a loved one or a friend during the holiday season. We’ve compiled a list of the palettes that are on every collegiette’s wish list this season. Since most of these options are limited edition and so reasonably priced, they are selling out fast. Get your hands on them while you can.
1. Lorac Mega Pro Palette, $59 ($209 Value)This eye shadow palette has 32 shadows in total; half are matte shades, and half are shimmer. Most of the shades are neutral toned and appropriate for everyday wear, but a number of statement shades are also included. The majority of the shadows are limited edition and never-before-seen in this makeup line, which is one of the many reasons beauty lovers are dying to get their hands on it. Lorac eye shadows never fail to impress. The shadows are pigmented, smooth, and buttery, making them super easy to apply and blend. Any lady with an appreciation for makeup would love to be gifted this palette.
2. Too Faced Everything Nice Set, $56 ($450 Value)This makeup palette might have the most beautiful packaging yet. The bejeweled and sparkling set offers 20 eye shadows, 2 bronzers, 2 blushes, 3 makeup brushes, a deluxe sample-sized mascara, and a pink glittery makeup bag all for an amazing value. All of these products are top-selling products in the Too Faced makeup line. This palette is a great gift option for someone who wants to experiment with several different types of products. You can even skip wrapping; simply place a bow on and let the gorgeous packaging do the work.
3. Smashbox On The Rocks Photo Op Eye Shadow Luxe Palette, $42 ($250 Value)This palette features 28 best-selling eye shadows, ranging from neutral to stunning jewel-toned shadows. Combining these shades will create the perfect party look. The array of colors is easy to work with for makeup beginners and for those only used to wearing neutral tones. The jewel-toned shades are pigmented and muted enough for everyday wear and even for special occasions. This is another great versatile palette.
4. Tarte Away Oui Go Portable Palette & Collector’s Set, $48 ($410 Value)This palette is a perfect gift for anyone that loves to travel. The set contains 4 removable sets of coordinated eye shadows and blushes and a compact that can fit one of the four removable sets.

The kit also contains three maracuja lip-glosses ranging from shades berry to nude and a deluxe sample-sized mascara.
5. LA Girl Beauty Bricks Eyeshadow Collection, $9For all beauty lovers on a budget, these palettes are perfect gifts for you , your family, and your friends. The collection has four individual palettes, each are sold separately. The way these eye shadow palettes are packaged is similar to the Naked Palettes by Urban Decay, which have a much higher price tag. Their quality in pigmentation and texture is comparable as well. Such a steal!
