PALETTE-ABLE
It’s not always possible to lug around your entire makeup drawer. This season’s handbags are huge, but even they have their limits. Keep it together with a charming makeup palette. It’s a clever way to put a little Picasso into your routine, with brushes and color for lips, cheeks, and eyes all in one paint palette. Here are five that help you conquer space issues and put your best face forward.

Lauren Hutton Face Disc Plus
This magical silver disc-shaped palette lets you not only highlight but also hide by offering color and concealer. Recess puffy eyelids, cover troublespots, and sculpt facial contours with easy-to-use concealers and powders. Play up your best with blush (which becomes a lip tint when applied over balm), eyebrow powder, and wet/dry eyeliner. A swipe of aloe lip balm and you’re good to go. Available in light, medium, and dark shades for most every skin tone ($60, laurenhutton.com).

Anastasia Beverly Hills All-in-One Palette
Eyebrow guru Anastasia gives you more ammunition for beauty with her new all-in-one sleek compact. It houses eight basic shades, available in warm or cool tones, for a flawless finish with a subtle hint of shimmer. Packed with vitamins C and E for antioxidant protection, the collection contains three eye shadows, lipstick, lip stain, lip gloss, blush, highlighter, and two professional brushes ($48, anastasia.net).

Cat Cosmetics Six Kitten Palette
With an assortment of essentials right at your fingertips, this kit is just purrfect. The palette comes with four lip glosses, a blush, an eyeshadow duo, and a shadow/liner duo. The eye and lip colors can be worn alone or mixed for a custom effect. What’s more, the colors are refillable, so there’s no need to toss a good thing once it’s done ($60, catcosmetics.com).

Hard Candy Take Out Makeup Kit
Packaged in a Chinese takeout box, this makeup kit covers it all — three levels, one set. Open wide for a built-in mirror and six Super Shine lip glosses. Then flip to find eight eye shadows, a classic black eye pencil, and black mascara. Finish your face with two shades of concealer, a bronzer, and a blush. Chopsticks not included, but necessary applicators are ($25, hardcandy.com).

Five-Well Custom Compact by GIELLA
This custom-blend palette puts a beautiful face in the palm of your hand. Pick the five areas you want in your palette — choose foundation, concealer, cheeks, eyeshadow, cream eyeliner, lipstick, lip gloss, eye gloss, or brow cream-to-powder — then customize your colors ($75, giella.com).

Wash and Wear
Bye bye, bubbles. Frédéric Fekkai Wash & Wear allows you to refresh and redo your hairstyle sans suds. As part of the famous stylist-to-the-stars’ Summer Hair collection, the instant shampoo spray rids your hair of oil and grime without washing with water. Simply mist the lightweight formula on dry hair and brush through. Innovative “cleansing magnets” attract and remove dirt and product buildup, while absorbers get to work on excess oil. Follow with a quick towel or blow dry, and hair is clean, refreshed, and ready to go.

Natural ingredients turn this sweet-smelling mist into a tough shield against sun and stress. Sunflower seed extract brings your hair advanced UV protection, while Moringa seed extract adds oomph against the environment as well as pollutants. Bioflavonoids prolong the life of color, so treated hair rejoices with reduced discoloration. Wash & Wear is $20 and available at sephora.com.

About Face
Dehydration. Dullness. Flakiness. Clogged pores. Skyn Iceland believes in “knowing your enemy.” And when it comes to skin that is dry, less supple, and exhibiting signs of premature aging, your enemy is most likely a little thing called stress. Taking cues from the Icelandic word for “senses,” as well as the country’s most beneficial natural ingredients found in mineral-rich hot springs, glacial rivers, and deep fjords, Skyn Iceland’s 5 Day Detox Kit delivers a line of advanced skincare products that help restore chronically stressed skin the natural way.

The kit includes a face mist, night cream, quenching daily lotion, and face wash that lead to supple and radiant skin, thanks to a biospheric complex. What is that, you ask? Think of earth, air, and water in the form of natural fruit oils and powerful antioxidants, Icelandic glacial water instilled with minerals and herbs, and oxygen-infused lotions that deliver energy to the cells and help counteract environmental stressors. Check out skyniceland.com to purchase the 5 Day Detox Kit ($45) as well as other products, and to learn tips and facts about stress and skin.
