The Viral Undereye Masks I Always Pack For Jamaica, Plus 9 Other Items to Bring

Make Up For Ever HD Skin Face Essentials Palette ($88)

I always overpack my makeup bag but this time, it was a little bit roomier than usual thanks to the Make Up For Ever HD Skin Face Essentials Palette. It includes 12 cream shades you can use as foundation, concealer, blush, highlighter, contour, and bronzer. All you've got to do is mix them to find your match.

It looks intimidating, but I find combining the colors quite intuitive. It wasn't hard to create a spot-on shade for my base. All it took was a little bit of fiddling — a few dabs of a shade here, another there. This palette came in especially handy as my skin got darker through the trip. I was able to create a perfect base every time, without having to worry about it looking off as I tanned.
