‘The beauty industry can feel so intimidating and complicated so I wanted to create a palette that would be an easy, go-to toolkit that you can use no matter where you are, and no matter what you’re doing.

The Scandal star has been involved in the process from start to finish and even trialed the foundations herself to ensure they stayed fresh all day.

She said: ‘I want to make sure the products actually work, so I’ve been there since the start, from research and development, to marketing, to meeting with consumers.’
