It’s hard to deny the wow factor of a 20- or 24-shade eyeshadow palette, but we’re here to remind you not to discount those teeny-tiny drugstore compacts either. They may offer fewer shades in one single package, but they can still do seriously glam things for your eye makeup game. You can get some simple everyday looks with it, and with the right mixing and matching, you can also create some dramatic and on-trend eye makeup looks for a night out or special occasion.
Plus, if you are obsessed with beauty products, chances are packing for a trip is no easy task. Thankfully there are smaller, travel-friendly, and incredibly versatile eyeshadow quads. These quads will ensure you spend less time trying to zipper your cosmetic bag closed and more time planning your vacay. Whether you’re off to your own holiday home, booked a waterfront or hillside property with your family or friends, or decided a couple of days with your boo is all you need – the quads listed below will make packing eyeshadow the easiest part of travelling.
