What makes an eyeshadow palette good for traveling?

What makes an eyeshadow palette good for traveling?

Tell us what you love and hate about...

Maybelline

Rave: Maybelline knows how to do great lip products! They’ve also stepped up the game when it comes to highlighters. Rant: They have discontinued a lot of their great lip product shades without replacements!
