Fero Beauty Stainless Steel Palette with 4 Wells


As a makeup artist it's important to have the right tools when you're working on a gig.  One important tool is a stainless steel palette.  These palettes are great for mixing liquid or cream products.  I was on the hunt for a special palette that is round in shape and where I could stick my thumb through a hole.  I checked out a few suppliers who carried it.  But to my luck they were all out of stock! Then I came across a UK based cosmetic supplier online called Fero Beauty.  They carried the palette but they also carried another palette that caught my eye.  It had the same shape but the only difference was that it had 4 dip wells.  I'm usually hesitant about ordering things online from other countries but I hadn't come across any other site that carried this type of palette.  So I took a chance and placed my order.  What I liked about the process was that after I had placed my order they sent me an email stating how much shipping would be and if I didn't agree to the costs I didn't have to go through with the order.  I paid 10.30 British Pounds for shipping (with tracking) on top of the palette that only cost 5.50 pounds.  I know the price of shipping is a bit much but I couldn't risk losing it in the mail without a tracking number.  I figured what the hey I really want this palette. I've been using this at every gig so far and I'm really loving it!  The palette is slightly larger than your standard rectangular stainless steel palette that every other artist out there owns.  But it does fit comfortably in my hand and it makes it easy for me to mix my liquid foundations.  No more liquids slipping and sliding off my palette!  This is a definite must have in my opinion.

Do you have a palette like this one?  If so, where did you get it from?  I'd love to know if there are any other places that carry this as well.

Holiday Gift Ideas For All Budgets Part 2 of 2: Palettes & Sets







I absolutely love this palette.  It has every color that you'll ever need especially if you're the type who likes neutral or is a natural makeup type of gal.  This is a great palette for a great price.  The texture is velvety and the colors are very pigmented.  Perfect for all skin tones!








MAC Holiday Collection ($27 - $71.50 CAD)
What's great about this collection is that there are so many sets to choose from whether it be eyes, lips, or face.  I think they are great, if you're willing to spend the money for them.
 
Laura Mercier Flawless Face Kit ($65 USD)
I love Laura Mercier's line of cosmetics.  This kit has everything you need to create that flawless face everyone aims to achieve.  I own all of these products in full size and I absolutely love them!  This is a definate must have!



The Balm Shady Lady Palette ($38 USD)
This palette is only available at Sephora and is a limited editon.  I can't say enough great things about this palette.  It has almost every color you need to create any look.  The colors have shimmer in them but they're not so shimmery that it's overbearing.  I also love that the shadows are super pigmented so a little will go a long way.  They also very easy to blend.  Another favorite in my collection.
