Teen Makeup Look: Easy on the Eyes

Step 1. Impulse and Glance.

Step 2. Darker shadows in this palette.

Step 3. The top shade is Instinct.

If you are looking to try out a new palette, Stila In the Moment  eye shadow palette is really stunning. You can create eye looks in 60 seconds flat and to prove the point, I am going to describe an easy eye look by typing for less than 5 minutes.

Step 1: Eyelids. Apply the lavender shade Impulse across your eyelids. Then, apply the purple shadow Glance to the edges of each eyelid, so a purple smudge goes on the right side on your right eyelid and on the left side of your left eyelid.

Step 2: Crease. Choose one of the darker shadows, such as Whim, a deep copper, or Improve, an inky purple, into the crease above your eyelids for added definition. You also can line the outer corners of your eyes with Whim for a more intense, nighttime look.

Step 3: Highlight. Apply Instinct, a pinkish-platinum shadow, below your eyebrow to make your eyes look larger and open up the look.

Finish with eyeliner for a rock 'n roll edge. Last but not least, follow the words printed on this beautiful makeup palette: "Cherish the beauty of the moment."

One-Minute Makeup: Stila's Lip and Cheek Stain in Acai Crush

R-e-s-p-e-c-t to girls up and down the West Coast. Inspired by my low maintenance friends in California, I wanted to share this quick beauty tip. If you are not a "makeup person," consider picking up Stila's Lip and Cheek Stain in Acai Crush ($24). Yes, it's makeup, but it's totally hassle-free.

The berry color is universally flattering. Just rub it on your cheeks and wave it across your lips for a devastatingly delightful look.

And did I mention it's infused with acai, a super fruit packed with antioxidants?  Pucker up!
