Clarins The Essentials Eye Palette

I've always raved about the great quality of Clarins makeup and their new The Essentials Eye Palette ($45) is a natural winner. Ten neutral mineral eyeshadows in universally-flattering shades of beige, taupe and brown are beautifully presented for all your beauty looks. The color combinations are endless, taking you day to night. To make things super easy, it includes a useful eye makeup chart with application tips.

All ten shade formulas are buttery soft, making blending a breeze. I can get a gorgeous smoky eye within 2 minutes. They last for many hours without any primer and there's not much fading. The double-ended eye brush is made with sustainable birch wood, recycled aluminum and cruelty-free pony hair. At $45, it's a fabulous bargain as their regular Eye Quartets go for $42 (4 shades). I would snap one up soon if I were you. 

The brand is also committed to preserving the Kuntanawa Indian culture and ecosystem in the Amazon. By purchasing this palette you'll support Clarins in planting 10,000 trees with PurProject. You can learn more about this reforestation initiative here. 

Available at all Clarins counters and soon on www.clarinsusa.com.

That would make a great girly holiday gift. I love how it benefits the tree restoration project, too. Now, that's a gift that really keeps on giving.

Oh, totally. It looks so lovely too, and so easy to blend.
