2018 awards season officially ends with the Oscars on March 4, and if there\u2019s one thing that deserves a nod for its performance in a supporting role, it\u2019s the evening bag. Though rarely seen on the red carpet, every actress has a clutch or minaudiere waiting in the wings, likely in the hands of their agent or publicist\u2014and packed to the brim with everything necessary for maintaining hair and makeup through the show and after-parties. Here, the essentials we\u2019re willing to bet you\u2019d find inside every Judith Leiber at the Dolby Theater next Sunday night\u2026<\/p>\n

BeautyBlender Blotterazzi
\n<\/a>When evening-bag real estate is at a premium, this compact houses a mirror along with two reusable blotting sponges. Better than blotting papers because they don\u2019t deposit powder that can affect how makeup looks in photos, one sponge can be used to minimize shine and one can be \u201cpre-loaded\u201d with foundation for touch-ups throughout the evening. Do you remember when Allison Janney<\/strong> brought hers on stage when accepting her 2015 Emmy?<\/p>\n

Tom Ford Lipstick
\n<\/a>Every celebrity (including Olivia Culpo<\/strong>, Kim Kardashian<\/strong> and Taylor Schilling<\/strong>)\u2014and every makeup artist\u2014has a favorite Tom Ford lip color, and with more than 100 options in varying shades and finishes there\u2019s one to suit any ensemble both on the red carpet and off.<\/p>\n

Listerine PocketPaks
\n<\/a>Though far from fancy, this is Hollywood\u2019s go-to for fresh breath on Oscar night because of its diminutive size\u2014and you get 24 minty melt-in-your-mouth strips in each teeny-tiny box. A favorite of Piper Perabo<\/strong> and Serena Williams<\/strong>, they\u2019re perfect for air-kissing, discreetly discussing upcoming projects, whispering not-so-sweet nothings about co-nominees\u2014and sharing if you find yourself in a conversation with a close-talker.<\/p>\n

Ouai Anti-Frizz Sheets
\n<\/a>We predict a lot of sleek, cascading waves at this year\u2019s Academy Awards, and this sophisticated look requires a bit of maintenance to stay smooth and shiny all evening. Enter Ouai (whose celebrity following includes Cindy Crawford<\/strong>, Lily Aldridge<\/strong>, Kendall Jenner<\/strong> and Bella<\/strong> Hadid<\/strong>), and the brand\u2019s latest product for mane management. Like blotting papers for your hair (except they don\u2019t absorb oil), these individually-wrapped sheets tame fuzz and flyaways to keep your coif looking fresh\u2014and they take up barely any space in even the smallest of bags.<\/p>\n

Gucci GG Marmont Card Case
\n<\/a>No one\u2019s heading to the Oscars without a credit card and at least a little cash (driver\u2019s license is optional). This petite Gucci number keeps bills and a Black Card corralled, because even an evening bag can get disorganized.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

As awards season culminates with the Oscars, the spotlight isn’t just on gowns but also on the unseen heroes: the evening bags.
