1 Guerlain Écrin 6 Couleurs Eyeshadow Palette
Guerlain’s 6-color palette got my vote for best luxury eyeshadow due to the range of formulations (matte, silk and iridescent) and the range of looks you can create in one compact palette. You can easily whip up a very neutral look or go all out with a smoky eye. Pretty and petite, this versatile palette is perfect for weekend getaways or to tuck into a small purse.
