Back to School Beauty - Makeup Palettes.
Aug 13, 2008 | Teri, editor, Beautiful Makeup Search 
Three weeks from today my kiddos go back to school. It is both an exciting and un-nerving time for all of us. New schools, new teachers, new routines. Saying good-bye to Summer, our favorite time of year. Getting back into homework habits. Getting the kids out of the house for six hours a day. They all have their pros and cons.
The hardest thing I discover about getting back to the going back to school routine is the mornings. No matter how early we get up or how prepared I think I am, we are always rushing and pressed for time.
One of the easiest ways to shave off some time in the morning routine is by lightening up your makeup routine. One of the smartest things to invest in is a makeup palette with products for eyes, cheeks, and lips in one place. Using a palette or kit will not only simplify your makeup application,
it will cut down on the time you spend fishing through your makeup bag
to find the perfect products to go with your daily look.
There are a lot of great palettes out there, but my heart belongs to just a few. While I am just recommending those here, you would be smart to look for your own favorite to help get your look and day off to a great start.
Too Faced The Bronzed & The Beautiful Bronzing Powder palette contains the perfect selection of bronzers to take your look from Summer to Fall with ease. These bronzers and highlighters are not only for your face, they can pull double duty on your eyelids. sephora.com
Pop Beauty Backstage Buzz - No. 1 Natural Soot is available in two color combos: Midnight Soot and Natural Soot.
Natural Soot contains a Duo Bronzer and Duo Cheek & Highlighter in
Dusty Rose, Nude Glow, Cream Glow & Bronze Glow, three Eye Shades
in Jet Black, Platinum Silver, and Nude Cream, and two Lip Glosses in
Peachy Nude and Pinky Nude. sephora.com
Stilas Backstage Beauty Eye Shadow Palette - The Front Row Look has the most beautiful case, doesn't it? I am so loving that flower on the outside, which is detachable to become it's own accessory. Inside is not so bad either with three beautiful shades to create a soft smoky eye look, complete with Stilas famed Kajal eyeliner, this one in Smokey Quartz. stilacosmetics.com
NARS Artist Palette 9941 has the perfect mix of shades for not only a quick and simple look, but a beautiful one at that. This beauty contains four shades of eye shadows, two shades of The Multiple, and four different lipsticks. The eye shadows include India Song, Night Star, Night Clubbing and Ondine. The Multiple shades are Copacabana, the perfect highlighter, and Malibu, the perfect nude pink brown, which anyone can wear. Finally, the lipstick shades in the palette are Honolulu Honey, the popular Dolce Vita, Gipsy and Trans Siberian, one of my new faves. narscosmetics.com
Laura Geller Face Folio contains not one, but two palettes with everything you need for a multitude of looks. The eye palette is filled with pressed powder, duo cream concealer, and six
eyeshadows. The Lip and Cheek palette is filled with a bronzer, blush
duo, and six creamy lip colors. The folio also contains lush black mascara and a dual
lip and eye pencil. You see? This kit is complete. sephora.com

Stila SPF 20 Shine Lip Color for Super Summer Lips.
Jul 1, 2008 | Teri, editor, Beautiful Makeup Search The scent of this yummy flavored lip shine is just the beginning. Stila's new SPF20 Shine Lip Color not only has the nicest Vanilla scented flavor (to make lips even more kissable), this lipcolor does double duty to protect lips from the Sun with it's SPF and leave them pretty too.
I told you how important it is to not forget the lips when protecting yourself form the Sun, and great lip color products are a plenty. But finding a good one, let alone a great one, is not as easy to find.
"SPF 20 shine lip color, is packed with healthy ingredients to beautify lips both inside and out. Vitamins A, C and E deliver maximum antioxidant protection, while rich vegetable-bases oils provide lightweight moisturization for the softest, smoothest lips."
There are eight beautiful sheer shiny colors to choose from. I am loving Keren - a sheer rosy brown, for a more natural look, and Talia - a violet pink, for a bit more color.
The formula is moisturizing in feel and longer-lasting than I thought - especially when licking my lips so often. Look at how beautiful the inside tube is too - such a surprise when opening the more simple, matte silver outer tube.
You can pick this SPF20 Shine Lip Color at Sephora on online at Stila Cosmetics.

The Sephora Supermodel Kit.
Nov 14, 2007 | Teri, editor, Beautiful Makeup Search Has Sephora gone and lost their mind? When I saw this beauty I thought wait. I see Smashbox. I see Stila. Why does the page say Sephora? Could it be a misprint?
Then I understood. Sephora put together the ultimate Supermodel Kit with some of the products needed to help make you look like a Supermodel. Well, not quite, but that is what I thought. These products were the actual products that the Sephora makeup artists used for Fashion Week Live. They put them all in a great glittery cosmetic bag too.
Wondering what is inside? Only the best, with a value of $145, for just $79, this Supermodel Kit is a must! The kit includes a Stila Lip Glaze in Brown Sugar, Make Up For Ever Diamond Shadow in Diamond Black 307, Smashbox Mini Travel Photo Finish Foundation Primer in Original, Smashbox O-GLOW, Dior Diorshow Mascara in Black 090, and a Sephora Blush Me! Mono in Abricot Plaisir 6.
Perfection!
