Make-up palettes for contouring and highlighting

I’ve always been a big fan of makeup palettes. They are compact, value for money and generally come in an array of colours which complement each other. They are also super handy when you are travelling as you don’t need to take your whole makeup case with you!

I’ve put together a small list of a few of my favourite pallets for contouring and highlighting:

Smashbox Step-By-Step Contour Kit $67

This little palette comes with three shades: dark brown to contour, beige to highlight and a medium brown to blend the two.
It also comes with an angled powder brush which allows you to chisel and blend those contoured cheeks. The pallets come in two shades and suit most skin types, you also get a step-by-step guide on how to contour and sculpt cheeks, nose and jawline. Perfect for the contour novice!
