Teen Corner: C-Shock, take two

Okay, I know I’m interrupting the regular program; Teen Corner is supposed to be a once-a-week thing, happening on Saturdays (Whatever, Mom. You think I don’t know you picked the slowest day for my column? I’m totally on to you) but I just had to share this.

The C-Shock "Eve" look didn’t really work on my little sister —the lips were all wrong. So, I stayed up all night last night (hey, it’s summertime!) trying the look on myself and this is what I came up with:

Bree C-Shock Eye Shadow

In addition to the MAC C-Shock collection, I mixed a bunch of other colors together to come up with my colorfully smoky eyes. The (right) lip colors are Out to Shock Lipstick and Mega Lip Gelee . This is definitely not an every-day look, but I totally love it. (Also, I did it all by myself! My usual helpers were in bed, asleep. The sloths.)Physicians Formula Mineral Wear Talc-Free Bronzing Veil

Do you see how glow-y my skin looks in this photo? I’ve been using Physicians Formula Mineral Wear Talc-Free Bronzing Veil and my skin is looking flawless these days!

I also love their Mineral Wear Talc-Free Mineral Face Powder because it gives a nice sheer finish without clogging my pores.

You should see their display at Target— there’s an entire wall of Physicians Formula powders and bronzers. Surely you can find the perfect one (or three!) for your skin.

Have a great week. See you on Saturday!

Prisme Again! Secret Blush, a powder blush quartet, beautifully displays the Givenchy 4G logo on the squares of fuschia, peach, mauve, and yellow powder blush designed to light up the face with a natural glow. This exclusive quartet offers more words of wisdom from Audrey Hepburn engraved on the mirror: Laugh Often.

Balancing out the bold eyes of the Prismissime Eye palette are two nude hues of Rouge Interdit, Givenchy’s star lipstick, in 25 Rose Caprice and 26 Voluptuous Nude.

New to the Givenchy makeup brand this season is Prisme Foundation, a palette of complementary powder foundation colors to create a flawless finish for every complexion. Swirled together, the four colors blend all over the face to camouflage flaws and enhance features. Individual hues can also be used to highlight and contour.

  • Shaping Ivory-1
  • Shaping Rose-2
  • Shaping Beige-3
  • Shaping Amber-4
