The Best Palettes To Gift Beauty Lovers

2016 was officially the year of the palette. From eyeshadows to highlighters, it seemed like every month there was a new kit debuting for beauty junkies to devour. Now that's it's the holiday season, you might be wondering what 2016's best palettes to gift to your friends, family, or self are. Whether it is a collection that's going to get you a major glow, a kit created by a fan-favorite YouTuber, or an affordable find that couldn't be beat, palettes were the way to go in 2016. Why not embrace the trend with your gift giving?

Beauty gifts are clearly some of the most popular to give during the holidays. It's difficult to watch traditional cable television without seeing at least one Ulta commercial. Plus, typically, beauty junkies and cosmetics lovers make no secret about their love of makeup. Why not just give them more of what they want? From one beauty lover to another, you can never, ever have enough makeup. It's simply not possible.

With some seriously huge releases in 2016 — like Huda Beauty's Rose Gold Palette or the Anastasia Moonchild Glow Kit — it seemed like wherever you went, a new palette could be found. That was true at least until the palette in question was sold out — which was often. If you want to embrace the biggest trends of 2016 and give them to others, these 10 palettes are here for you.
