Best face palettes of 2019: Urban Decay, Maybelline, RMS, and more

The Urban Decay NAKED Flushed Palettegives you sculpted cheekbones in seconds with blush, highlighter, and bronzer. Plus there’s a mirror included for touch-ups.

The NAKED Flushed Palette by Urban Decay is the perfect everyday companion. You get powder bronzer, blush, and highlighter in one compact package, with three color stories to suit fair, medium, and deep complexions.

These pressed powders are micronized and jet-milled, so they’re super soft and blendable. Instead of chunky glitter, all three shades feature tiny shimmer particles for a multi-dimensional finish. You can mix them together for a glowy, bronze blush, or apply each shade individually to different areas of your face.

The powders are all different sizes based on how and how often they’re usually used. The bronzer is the largest and allows you to pick it up using a big, fluffy brush for an all-over glow, the blush is a medium size because you’d swirl a good amount of it on your cheeks, and the highlighter is smallest since you only need a tiny swipe for high impact.

Though I think you’ll want to reach for this palette daily, the compact size and fairly large mirror (at least considering the small palette width) make this a great travel pick as well. What’s better than makeup you can use literally all year round — even on vacation?

“This product has simplified my makeup routine, decreased the time I spend getting ready and has cut down on the clutter that is my makeup table,” writes one Sephora shopper.

Overall, the product has a 4.2-star rating based on 1,700+ reviews, and was also a 2014 Allure Best of Beauty winner.

Pros: comes in three shades, travel-friendly size, mirror

Cons: no division between shades could cause the powders to mix together
