I’m a sucker for Laura Mercier this time of year. They always come up with a great set that I find myself throwing into my basket and ordering on auto pilot. I love this set and I’ve been having fun playing with the colors. This portfolio comes with three good brushes. I think that’s part of the reason I fell so hard for it. You get a ponytail, crease, and smudge brush. I really like these and having them fit right inside the portfolio is a great idea for using this on the go.

Here are some close-ups of the colors in the palette and swatches.

I’m so glad I got this, check it out when you’re looking at new holiday sets and kits. It retails for $98. I don’t like Pink Crystal or Mica much. They are chunky glitters that are a challenge to blend and have more fall out than the other colors. My favorites in the portfolio are Rich Sienna, African Violet, Fig, and Sparkling Night.
