Save this for someone special who loves a classy and elegant gift. Yves Saint Laurent Couture Color Clutch Eyeshadow Palette is exactly that. It may be pricey (very!) but it’s definitely got the quality and luxury factor!

These palettes make the perfect gifts because how many people actually spend so much on one palette for themselves?! I’m sure I’m not the only one who feels a lot less guilty spending so much on a gift for a good friend rather than for myself! You can read my full review of the palettes here.
