Back to School Beauty - TESS.

graphic_btsb_icon.jpgFor teens going back to school, it can be stressful. Times of stress in teens shows on their face, by way of breakouts.

It is never too early to get your favorite teen on a great skin care system. TESS, Teen Everday Skincare System is one of the newer systems for tweens and teens. Formulated with all natural ingredients, and the freshest of scents, you can trust that these products will help keep your teens skin balanced, clean, and clear.

The set, pictured above, is  available at QVC for just $30, and it is everything teens need to start a perfect skincare routine. Two kits are available: Almost Normal and Skin with Attitude.  Look is what the Almost Normal kit contains:

  • 2-oz strawberry/jojoba Rise and Shine facial cleanser
  • 2-oz apple Ooh-Refreshing facial toner
  • 2-oz lavender oil-free Out and About lotion with SPF 15
  • 4-ml peppermint Zip-It blemish stick

My 15 year old loves the Zip-It blemish stick, and uses it just a few times a day on pimples until they disappear. While my 12 year old loves the Ooh-Refreshin toner. She says it makes her face feel awake and ready to go.

 "Why is TESS different: The paraben-free products contain natural ingredients such as lavender oil, aloe vera gel, chamomile, green tea, lemon peel, and apple strawberry. The kit is fun and easy to use, with inspirational and empowering messages on the packaging and bottles. Tess gathered input from moms and teens to create the scents, ingredients, and textures of the products."

My family is so glad to have found this, and your favorite teen will be too.

Back to School Beauty - Makeup Up Palettes & Kits.

graphic_btsb_icon.jpgOne of the easiest ways to lighten up your makeup routine is by finding a great makeup palette or kit, with products for eyes, cheeks, and lips.

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.  

I have found two perfect solutions. One is a kit, and one is a palette.

First there is the all-in-one palette, or as they call it their Quickie Chronicles, from Too Faced Cosmetics.  This Quickie is called The Miss Sixty Girl.

The Miss Sixty Girl Palette includes an eye shadow quad in sunflower yellow, white pearl, shimmering pink, and dark navy;  powder eyeliner duo in black velvet and black with silver glitter;  shimmering peach blush; and four lip glosses in shell pink, cotton candy pink, champagne shimmer, and ruby berry red, plus a removable mini pocket mirror.

Then there is a makeup kit from Bare Escentuals. This kit is appropriately titled Renegade Chic.

The Renegade Chic kit includes a  Lip Gloss in Rose Radiance,  BareMinerals Eye Shadow in Dove,  BareMinerals Eye Shadow in Graphite,  BareMinerals Face Color in Rose Radiance, an Angled Face Brush, and an Eye Defining Brush.

Back to School Beauty - Stick with Metallics.

Want a simple way to stay on trend? Add some metallics, albeit subtle metallics, to your shadow collection.

Bobbi just launched a collection of palettes, exclusively for Nordstrom. These are the Metallics.

Could it be more beautiful? This is the Burnt Sugar Metallics palette. These shimmery, highly pigmented shadows were adorning my eyes over the weekend. And they were beautiful! The powders are so soft, that they almost feel creamy. The shadows are formulated for all-day wear, and my lids are showed no signs of creasing. 

Pictured from left to right: Toffee, Gold Dust and Burnt Sugar. I used Gold Dust over my entire eye lid, from lash line to the top of my brow. I then applied Burnt Sugar over most of my lid, just not bringing it all the way into the inner corner, near my nose. I used a bit of the Toffee shade in my crease, and extended it upward and outward, to give my eye a bit of a smoky look. Finally, I dipped my eyeliner brush into Toffee as well, and lined my upper and lower lash line. Beautiful!!!

There are three more Metallic palettes, including Mignight Metallics that feature Platinum, Rockstar and Midnight; Velvet Plum Metallics which feature Raisin, Champagne Quartz and Velvet Plum; and Forest Metallics, with the shades Sage, Balsam and Forest.

Each Bobbi Brown Metallics palette sell for $45, and are exclusive to Nordstrom.
