A palette that will save space in a travel cosmetic bag and help you get "from the ship to the ball", an eyeshadow palette for any makeup and a tool that will hide any imperfections on your face - these and other findings of the BeautyHack editors will definitely make your life (and your suitcase) easier.
Back Talk Palette, Urban Decay
Tested by BeautyHack Editor-in-Chief Karina Andreeva
I think many people are familiar with this situation when you need to leave the airport upon arrival not with a swollen face and bruises under your eyes, but almost “to the ball” (those who often fly on business trips, where every hour is scheduled, take note). The new UrbanDecay will save a lot of space in your bag: it consists of eight shades of eyeshadow (there are both nude and bright) and four pigments for the face (two highlighters and two blush).
Shades 3Sheets (soft pink), Bare (soft beige with shimmer), Curve (ash rose color, also with shimmer) I use solo - when I need to distribute the product on the eyelids on the run (fortunately, they are perfectly shaded). Shade (purple with glitter), Attitude (fiery with shimmer), WTF (matte brown) and 180 (dark brown with shimmer) - these bright and saturated colors are enough for unusual eye makeup.
My favorite technique is to apply Curve to the entire movable eyelid and create a fiery haze at the outer corners with Attitude, emphasize the mucous membrane with a 180th, and distribute the PartyFoul highlighter under the eyebrow.
Now let's talk about pigments for the face. I really liked CheapShot's cool pink - it gives a blush, like after an hour's walk in a winter forest. But DoubleTake is warmer, ideally accentuates your tan. The palette contains two highlighters - LowKey (peach) and PartyFoul (cold pink).
Persistent, does not crumble, is applied "on the run" - great! And the set includes a mirror, which is magnetically attached to the palette. It is convenient to detach it so as not to keep the entire package loose during the make-up process. The novelty is thought out to the smallest detail - now it is my irreplaceable travel companion.

Sculpting kit Palette Essentielle Ete Eclat Solaire, Chanel
Tested by BeautyHack editor Daria Sizova
I have a fairly round face, so in any, even the most nude, makeup I emphasize the cheekbones, refresh my face with blush and create play on the cheekbones. But I always fly with a small suitcase - there is neither the opportunity nor the desire to take three products with me, that's why I liked the new palette so much. With it, you can apply makeup in the "here and now" mode - all shades are perfectly shaded with fingertips.
I emphasize the cheekbones with a brown tint, create a golden glow over the cheekbone and add a couple of drops of a bright shade to the apples of my cheeks - I immediately look refreshed and rested. The tones of the new palette look especially good on tanned skin (read what remedy to use if you have not had time to tan in the sun).
But the palette is good not only for light and natural contouring - with it you can create a complete makeup on the road. Apply a brown shade to the crease of the eyelid and a golden shade to the center for a radiant, wet look. And the blush will easily replace your lipstick - just a couple of movements, and the makeup with the effect of kissed lips is ready!

Palette for eyes Classic Cutie, MAC
Tested by BeautyHack editor Daria Sizova
When I go on vacation, I pack my suitcase according to the principle of "nowhere to retreat" - I take a minimum of things and money. The main requirement is versatility (top 16 pets, with whom it is not scary to be even in the desert, can be found here). But the means for eye makeup are given a relief - they may not be very compact, but necessarily - in a beautiful package (on vacation I try to get a rush of endorphins from everything that surrounds me).
I really liked the palette at first sight - a beautiful packaging in a lavender shade and eight cool shades of eyeshadow (with a nice bonus in the form of a highlighter). At first glance, the shadows do not look universal, but it is worth getting to know them better - and without a palette you will feel like no hands. I apply matte light shades to the entire movable eyelid on the days when I do “makeup without makeup”. I apply shades with shimmer to the inner corner of the eye to open my eyes, make transitions with smooth shading to create an ombre effect for evening make-up and apply shimmer shades to the center of the eyelid just like that - on vacation, in order to shine, no reason is needed.
A highlighter with a very delicate shimmer for natural looks. I apply it to the space under the eyebrows to emphasize their shape and to the inner corner of the eye (when I want to shine delicately).

Blush and bronzing powder “Book of the sun. Chapter 2 "Book Of Sun Blush Bronzer Duette" Chapter 2 ", Smith & Cult
Tested by BeautyHack editorial assistant Karina Ilyasova
I have a fairly dark skin, and bronzers are regular guests of my cosmetic bag. For the summer period I was looking for a universal remedy that will accentuate the skin color, give the face a rested look and will not make the skin matte.
Palette bronzing powder is just that. I apply it on the cheekbones to give the face a tanning effect, I correct the oval. After vacation I use it as a powder (for girls with fair skin this option will not work).
But ladies with porcelain skin will be able to make their face more tanned without unnecessary redness. And in the fold of the eyelid, the dark sandy shade looks great: the eyes become more expressive (especially if you add mascara of the same brand to the makeup - you can see the swatch here https://beautyhack.ru/krasota/makiyazh/svotchi-10-otlichnyh-tushey- s-silikonovoy-schetochkoy).
I fell in love with blush for its versatility - a cold pink shade will suit both "snow white" and tanned girls. The product is very pigmented, but it blends easily and beautifully refreshes tanned skin when applied to the apples of the cheeks.

Highlighter Freedom HD Highlihter Trio JLO, Inglot
Tested by BeautyHack editor Julia Kozoliy
With all my heart I love universal products - they are easy to use, give room for imagination (shades can be easily mixed) and fit even in the smallest suitcase.
The highlighter from the limited edition Inglot will definitely go with me on vacation - with the help of it, you can not only give the skin a delicate radiance, which seems to come from “inside”, but also favorably emphasize the tan and refresh the image. The product has a very pleasant silky texture. It is easy to shade and not dusty.
I put blush on the apples of my cheeks, bronzer on the cheekbones, and highlighter on the prominent areas of the face: even the simplest makeup sparkled with new colors.
But I didn't stop there - I mixed all the shades with a fluffy brush and applied to the cheekbones, blending to the temples. The result is a light dripping effect with a glow - a great option to emphasize the image for an evening walk through the narrow streets of the resort town.

Palette highlighters and blush Invisible Illumination, Lumene
Tested by BeautyHack editor Julia Kozoliy
On vacation, I practically do not put on makeup - I just emphasize the tan with light natural shining shades and refresh the look with blush. The palette was perfect for this - the two shades of the highlighter blend perfectly together, creating a natural glow on the skin from the inside (but the shades also look great on solo cheekbones).
The blush in the package seems bright, but on the apples of the cheeks the shade becomes very delicate (and if you have already sunburned, feel free to layer the product - it will not roll and "leak" into the chin area even in +30 heat).
The products have a pleasant creamy texture, and the composition contains an arctic cloudberry extract, which additionally moisturizes the skin (on a beach vacation, when the skin suffers from sand, sun and salty sea - this is especially important).

Contour palette Face Contour Kit, Sleek
Tested by BeautyHack editor Julia Kozoliy
I love this palette, first of all, for the highlighter. In its composition there is a very delicate shimmer and there are no pronounced sparkles. The color is very delicate - the product is suitable for girls with any skin tone. Its radiance, of course, is not visible from space, but for face correction with the help of highlighting it will be very useful.
The contouring product is less versatile - it still has a brownish undertone. But it suits me perfectly.
If my makeup has already crawled home, and I'm not going there - I accentuate my cheekbones, update the highlighter - and I'm ready to run on.

Palette concealers Master Camo, Maybelline New York
Tested by special correspondent BeautyHack Daria Mironova
On vacation I am often bothered by rashes (climate change, dry air in planes - a breeding ground for bacteria and a change in diet). But now minor troubles will not spoil the mood and travel photos - there are shades in the palette to hide any imperfections (redness, “blue” under the eyes, rashes and dull skin color).
The products have a creamy consistency, good pigmentation. Each of the shades is easily distributed with your fingertips and does not roll off during the day, but to play it safe, it is better to use powder (options for every taste can be found here).

Palette for sculpting the face Mariniere Palette Countouring, Vivienne Sabo
Tested by BeautyHack editorial assistant Anya Khobotova
We love the Vivienne Sabo brand for the Parisian themes on the packaging, themed collections that immerse us in the romantic atmosphere of France and the mascara for lengthening and volume, which is loved by beauty lovers all over the world (you can read why BeautyHack creative director Ksenia Wagner loves her here).
The Mariniere collection is a reference to a vacation in Biarizza, and the sculpting palette is the tool that will help you out on any trip (no matter where you go - to the ocean, to the mountains, towards a European adventure or a yoga tour).
The palette contains a universal shade of bronzer, a golden highlighter with a fine shimmer and a natural blush. I mixed bronzer and highlighter and applied it to the area under the cheekbone as a sculptor - a beautiful glow effect was obtained (the highlighter also smoothed fine expression lines).
I am always wary of blush - I'm afraid to become a matryoshka at the New Year's fair. But the color of the product is very delicate and delicate - even girls with a very light complexion will like it.
Another bonus is the powdery texture of the products (the matting effect is noticeable - a gift for girls with oily skin).

Palette for face makeup Contour Sensation 3 in 1, Eveline
Tested by BeautyHack editor Daria Sizova
Universal "helpers" for the holiday cosmetic bag were also found in an affordable price segment. The palette has one tangible plus - it is enough for a complete make-up. Emphasize the cheekbones with a brown tint (which, by the way, does not "redden", unlike many "colleagues in the shop"), apply a drop of gentle blush on the apples of the cheeks and a highlighter on the cheekbones - the image is almost ready.
Do not hesitate to mark the crease of the upper eyelid with a natural brown shade, and fill the entire movable eyelid with a light shining highlighter - you will get a completely "marching" eye makeup. And the highlighter, by the way, is very natural - you can use it as a powder, spreading it over the entire face with a fluffy brush (you get a slight glow, and the oily shine "leaves" the face).
Price: about 500 rubles
Eyeshadow Palette Plume, Vivienne Sabo
Tested by BeautyHack editorial assistant Anya Khobotova
Natural eye makeup in nude tones has not been losing ground for several seasons. Such makeup is especially relevant on vacation - it emphasizes a fresh tan and does not take much time.
The palette from the summer collection, inspired by the spirit of freedom of Paris, was perfect for a trip to the sea - with matte and shimmery shades you can get any look (light daytime for exploring the sights of the resort town and bright evening - for a hot party on the beach). The bottom row of shades is perfect for smoky eyes.
The eyeshadow has a very silky texture and is easy to apply and spread easily, even with your fingertips. If you use a brush, the shadows will not "dust" and crumble. The tool, by the way, is very persistent - after eight hours in the heat, the shadows did not roll.

Palette for modeling the face Ideal Contour Modeling Palette, Ninelle
Tested by BeautyHack editorial assistant Anya Khobotova
The palette is well suited for girls who are just learning the basics of the beauty industry and those who save space in a vacation cosmetic bag.
The palette is divided into four parts: a highlighter, two types of blush and a bronzer (and on the back there is a diagram of where to apply each of the four products to get the perfect face contour).
Each shade has very high pigmentation - just lightly touch with a fluffy brush and apply the product to the face. I have no questions about resilience (on vacation this is especially true - who wants to go into a cosmetic bag before each photo?).
I especially liked the highlighter - the product gives a delicate radiance that is not visible "from space", but on the contrary - it seems that the face glows with happiness and impressions of relaxation.

Blush-bronzer for strobing Angel's Skin Strobing Blush, Victoria Shu
Tested by special correspondent BeautyHack Daria Mironova
The assortment of the Spanish make-up brand Victoria Shu has everything you need for a basic make-up. And the “two in one” product is a real find for a long journey. One half is a gentle blush of a universal shade, and the other half is a light bronzer of the “correct” brown shade.
The product has a pleasant texture, which is a little "dusty", but it can be safely layered, achieving the desired color intensity (my choice is a light touch of shades for a daytime look and two layers for an evening out).
