Together the team created six distinct lookssix gorgeous images, each showing a different side of Jessica.

Back To Autumn Beauty: Get Beautiful On The Go With This Season’s Hottest Makeup Palettes!

Want to look as glamorous as Jessica Alba this season? Here are some of the season’s hottest makeup palettes to make that possible!

When it comes to getting glam in a hurry, nothing beats a makeup palette. These quick-and-easy kits contain almost everything you’ll need to create a red carpet-ready face day or night in one compact. Since most of us are running around and too busy to carry our entire vanity with us, these are the fastest ways to carry your beauty routine with you and get glam on the go. What are some of the best compacts coming for fall? Check it out:

Nothing screams red carpet faster than Marchesa, so get in on their brand new collection palettes for Le Metier de Beaute. The gunmetal case is inspired by the Oscar gown they created for Sandra Bullock and the credit-card sized, thin compact contains a translucent pressed powder, concealer, lip gloss, cream blush, and eye shadow. They’re only available in limited edition at Neiman Marcus and Bergdorf Goodman so call or visit your nearest store now.

If it’s a great nude complexion you’re going for, try this Laura Mercier Bonne Mine Healthy Glow For Face & Cheeks Crème Colour Palette, which includes a bronzer, cheek hue and all-around glow hue that can be combined to use all over your face. Just add mascara and go. So simple, right?

More into your eye makeup than anything else? Go for the Smashbox Cosmetics Eye Wish Palette, which contains multiple seasonal eyeshadow hues, cream eyeliners in dark brown, black violet, blue-black, and gunmetal, and mini versions of their Photo Finish Lid Primer Mini and Lash DNA Mascara. Here’s a fun trick: add clear lip gloss to the back of your hand, dab some eyeshadow in it, mix and apply to your lips. Instant lip gloss!

Designed for teens but just as amazing for adults is the Bobbi Brown Beauty Rules Palette, which contains cheek, lip and eye hues with one of Bobbi’s signature eye pencils. All your need is mascara and you’ve got a perfect daytime look. Rarely would I say that mothers and daughters can share the same makeup palettes, but with this one, I’ll say it: borrow each other’s makeup or make sure to get one for each of you.

For those who like their makeup on the cheeky side, I bring you the Benefit Her Name Was Glowla Kit, a fabulous combination of some of their fabulous products. Each palette consists of a CORALista cheek powder with brush, High Beam, Moon Beam, Five-Shade Eyeshadow Palette, a BADgal Lash Mascara, a Lip Gloss in Life On The A List and one fluffy shadow and one hard angle brush. It’s a little slice of fabulous for makeup lovers.

Now, if you’re a serious makeup lover and you need every single color known to man to suit your moods, then by all means, get yourself a Sephora Color Diary. Each kit contains six small makeup palettes with six eyeshadows, blush and a  tube of lip gloss. There are literally palettes for every eye color and every mood in this kit. It’s amazing.

Women of color will love the IMAN Face Palette, which contains eyeshadow, lispstick, lip gloss, blush and bronzer in shades made especially for their gorgeous skin. You can snag the Cote d’ Azur palette or the St. Tropez palette, whichever you think would flatter you most.

For those of you who are truly lip product-obsessed, the Sephora Collection Colorful Lipstick Palette is made just for you. Fifteen lipstick shades from nude to dramatic that can be used separately or together for fabulous lips every day of your life.

Go forth and get gorgeous this season. With all these cool makeup palettes at your disposal, you should be paparazzi ready at a moment’s notice, just like your favorite celebs!
