Four reasons to love all-in-one makeup palettes

July 9, 2015

My obsession with all-in-one makeup palettes began last summer when I picked up two from MAC during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. Here’s why I love them:

1. My nude and plum makeup palettes eliminate the guesswork when it comes to discerning between warm and cool colors. I no longer have to worry whether my eyeshadow and blush and lip color coordinate.

2. Each makeup palette has a limited selection of options, so I save time deciding what colors to wear. Fewer choices means a faster makeup routine.

3. Since each case is slim enough to drop into my (large) purse, I can easily reapply my makeup on the go. I usually brought a makeup palette with me for late-day touch ups when I’d head into New York City for work events.

4. They make packing a breeze. When we went to Hilton Head Island, I simply slipped my two makeup palettes into my toiletry bag with a tube of mascara and some lip glosses and called it a day.

You can always find makeup palettes at Sephora, but the ones created exclusively for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale are some of the prettiest. I still have plenty of pigment left in my MAC nude and plum palettes from last year, so I can’t really justify owning any more . . . but if I could, these are the makeup palettes I’d want to buy.

Day 12 | No photos from today (well none worth sharing) because I sat in front of my laptop from 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. working on deadline. My busy work day also meant that my kids didnt get very much of my attention. My husband kept them occupied for some of the day but I dont think they got any schoolwork done. Oh well we all deserve a lazy day every once in a while. I know I do! | So whats this photo? Just some of the amazing birthday presents I received from my friends this weekend! (Dont worrDay 11 | Emotions have been running high the past two days and everyone has a short fuse. Asa had a full-on temper tantrum because he didnt want to color his drawing of a rainbow and nearly lost his cool while practicing Typing Club. I wish I could do more educational activities with them like taking alphabet walks and tallying up different items around the house but Im totally overwhelmed with a huge deadline this week. In fact I had to keep working after the kids went to bed and now its nearlyC-Quarantine Day 8 | Ive felt anxious many days this past week but today was the first day I had the blues. Not sad about anything specific. Just ... sad. Cabin fever? Exhaustion? We decided to get out of the house to look at the cherry blossoms in Bethesda. The Kenwood neighborhood was quiet so we parked and walked down a side street keeping our distance from the few other people out and about. But with cars parked on one side of the road and moving cars to trying to pass them & the pedestriansOn the first day of #socialdistancing my true love made for me Nutella-filled croissantsyummy!  On the second day of social distancing my true love made for me banana muffins with a crumb topping.  On the third day... Nope. Tomorrow we work from home/homeschool our kids so its cereal for everyone!  #onedaycv #covidquarantine
