I have GOT to lighten the load of my kit so I would ready like the opinion of those who are more experienced than me. If you had to pick only one foundation palette/ set to carry in your kit what would it be? Thanks for the help.

Thanks for the suggestion. I looked it up and they actually have 3. I figured that the 'warm' palette would be my best bet. What do you think?

I have a Japonesque palette that I filled with all my foundations, so it's a mix of Mac, Cinema Secrets, Max Factor etc.

Maybe you should think about what you have used and liked and build a palette from that? It doesn't have to be all one brand just what you know.

Ahh yes I forgot , yes the warm palette pretty much covers most people. I have a liquid foundation for the particularly pale though. When contouring you don't want the colours to be too warm so the cool palette would be a great use for that...if I had one. -.-

It's really hard to say as your client's are going to want different things.

If were talking models here, I prefer MUFE HD, Illamasqua Skin Base or MAC face & body (none of which come in palettes to begin with)

If we're talking every day skin, you'll need to investigate a bit further. Graftobian, Ben Nye, Kryolan and every now and then Bobbi Brown all do lovely foundation palettes.
