has its place, but some of us also need professional
advice; think expert answers to those burning questions
such as, “Can I pair a brown contour shadow with
a cream highlight shadow?” Yes, you can, thanks
to this travel pretty palette from Tricia Sawyer.
Tricia Sawyer, a celebrity makeup artist, offers up
her four-pack eyeshadow palette called “The Essentials”
alongside a healthy serving of A-list advice for looking
red carpet ready. Calling the colors universally flattering
for all skin tones, Sawyer swears she’s used “The
Essentials” on every actress she’s ever
beautified from Kate Beckinsale to Scarlet Johansson;
