Full Exposure Palette, $82
Newsflash! The same eye makeup doesn’t flatter everyone! We all have different eye shapes and skin colours - and the makeup pros at Smashbox studios have seen them all. To help everyone create the ultimate eye, Smashbox makeup artistes have created the Full Exposure Palette, a neutral-style set containing a range of textures and shades; everything from nudes to blacks, and velvety shimmers to smooth mattes. A special chart insert will help you to identify your specific eye shape and then will take you step by step to create a unique, day, night or defined look that’s perfect for you. With 14 neutral shadows, a specially designed, double-ended brush and bonus Photo Finish 24 Hour Shadow Primer deluxe sample, you’ll discover the ultimate shape-enhancing look for you.
