Summer Bronze All in One Palettes

I love an all in one palette, great for travelling and take up much less space in my makeup collection than individually packaged products. Both of todays products fall within the 'higher end' spectrum with regards to price etc so I would love to know if you have tried a budget alternative such as the Sleek Palette.

The Urban Decay Naked Flushed palette was first brought out last summer and relaunched this summer with additional colour ways. This one is the "Naked" variant. It has a large orange toned bronzer, a pink toned shimmer highlight and a pink coral toned blush all in one palette for £22 (available from Debenhams) which is a bit of a steal in my opinion. The bronzer isn't my favourite colour, I normally prefer something with a cooler tone but lightly applied over the forehead and tops of the cheeks will give a natural sun kissed look. It does have a slight shimmer running through so this is not one to use for contour.

The highlight and blush however are both absolutely lovely and great either applied separately or swirled together with a large fluffy brush and applied to the back of the cheeks. 

The Chanel Tan de Soleil in Bronze Rose was a limted edition palette a few years ago and after utterly falling in love with it I quickly repurchased before they sold out. They have however brought out a newer edition tied in with the Les Bieges range called Healthy Glow Multi-Colour which is of a similar vain.

This one has two bronze shades, a highlight and a pink toned blush and is the least fussy product I own. I can apply it using the brush that comes with the palette either taking a sweep across all the colours for a low maintenance holiday look or take a little more time to use the thin brush to contour, blush and highlight across my cheeks. This product retailed around the £50 mark however the newer compacts (which are smaller) are only £39 and available online or on Chanel counters.

A no fuss solution to packing multiple products? Oh yes, now just to stop myself buying more palettes and defeating the object. Sometimes too much choice can be a bad thing!
