Zuzana was given the Pixi Fake Awake Kit - Power-Nap, $28, available at Target. For her day look, she opted to bring out her blue eyes and go with a soft pink lip.
Step 1: After her usual foundation, Zuzana applied the concealer (1) to her eye area. Step 2: Then she used the nude setting powder (2) on her eyelids. Step 3: She applied the cream highlighter (3) and brightening cream (4) to her cheeks. Step 4: Zuzana topped that with a little of the peachy cheek and eye awakening powder (5). Step 5: Then she finished the look with the pale pink lip gloss (6).
"I liked how this palette helped me create a natural, pretty look," Zuzana says. "It was very appropriate for the office and made me look fresh."
Do you really need an overflowing bag of makeup to look put-together each day? Or can a few simple palettes -- filled with the right products -- get the job done much more simply? That's the question we're aiming to answer with this two-part dare.
We gave three staffers one of three makeup palettes and challenged each to create an office-ready look. Then we handed over these same palettes to the team on our sister site, Beautyriot.com, to see what sorts of night looks they could come up with.
