MAKE-UP 101

AUGUST 18TH, 2008

MAKE-UP 101

Face it, not everyone is a Trish McEvoy or Bobbi Brown.

But rather than go raccoon-eyed trying to copy their runway looks, turn to Cargo Cosmetics, whose new eyeshadow palette comes with instructions embossed right into the colours.

Marked from lightest ("brow bone") to darkest ("outer corner") with "lid" and "crease" in between, the neutral shades of the new Essential Palettes ($32) will make the most newbie eyeshadow-wearer look like a page out of Elle.

Just keep that turquoise eyeliner in your make-up bag.

Purchase the Essential Palette in Canada at Sephora.
