The Best Makeup for Summer Palettes 2026

Written By Lindsey Myers
 

Are you a Summer color palette searching for the best makeup for your skin tone…

Look no further! Our color analysts at Created Colorful have scoured your fave stores - like Sephora, Ulta, Tarte, and more - so you don’t have to go roaming the aisles to find your best shades.

We’ve got you covered, with lipstick, blush, eyeliner, eyeshadow, and mascara recs for Summer palettes 🙌

For lipsticks and blushes, we polled the community and found tried-and-true picks for each subpalette: Cool Summer, Light Summer, and Soft Summer.

Jump to Your Best: Lipstick | Blush | Eyeshadow | Mascara | Eyeliner

Makeup is always going to be a highly personalized thing, and trial and error is part of the deal, but we hope these finds can narrow your search in a big way and lead you closer to your perfect match.

We’ve included some lighter and some deeper recs for each palette so that you can find a shade that works for your skin tone depth (light, tan, and deep).
