A little bit of color
Small compacts containing multiple shades of cream or powdered makeup in mini sizes are a great travel alternative to toting a big bag of full-sized individual shades. But prepackaged combos may contain colors you don't want. And what happens when you use up one indispensable shade before the rest of the batch?
No problem with Travel Trios from Three Custom Color Specialists. You pick each of three shades of eye, face, or lip colors in cream or powder form, each of which comes in a 11/2-inch magnetic pan that pops into a slim, mirrored compact with a little makeup brush in its own slot. When a shade is used up, pop it out and replace it with the same or another shade.
Travel Trio makeup sets are $67.50; refills, $17.50 apiece, at 1-888-262-7714 or www.threecustom.com.
