4. After rolling and folding the bubble wrap into a donut shape (Tiffanie used tape to hold it together), pull your ponytail ends through the center, allowing the bubble wrap to sit at the base of your elastic. Think: sock bun.
5. Allow your ponytail ends to fall over the bubble wrap entirely, making sure that none of the wrap is showing through your hair. Then, use an elastic to secure this loose hair so that it is gathered around the base of the bun.

6. Tuck any remaining strands of hair using bobby pins and brush or comb hair into place over any spots where the bubble wrap shows. Finish with a strong-hold hairspray like Moroccanoil Luminous Hairspray, $18.

Since this makeup look is all about the eyes, the rest of the routine can be kept pretty basic. Light foundation and blush allow the eyes to really pop -- not that the colors exactly need the help.

Step 1: Conceal any imperfections with a light wash of foundation -- we tried out IT Cosmetics IT-O2 Ultra Repair Liquid Oxygen Foundation, $38 -- applied with a sponge for a sheer look. We've recently fallen in love with EcoTools Foam Applicator, $5.99. Cover under-eye circles with a brightening concealer.

Step 2: Using an angled brush, create a cat eye using a vivid yellow cream shadow, like Make Up Forever's Aqua Cream in shade 24, $23, starting from the inner corner of your eye and flicking the brush upwards at the outer corner. (For a step-by-step tutorial on the perfect cat eye, see this video: Erica's 60-Second Cat Eye for Beginners.)Extend a little further than you normally would for added drama. Add more cream shadow to your brush and, using the line you already made as a guide, make the cat eye thicker. Repeat until you hit the desired thickness.

Step 3: Wipe off your angled brush, then use it to apply a thick line of blue cream shadow, like Make Up Forever's Aqua Cream in shade 24, $23, below the lower lashes. Make sure to start from the inner corner of the eye and extend upwards so that it meets the yellow liner.

Step 4: Apply a peachy blush to the apples of the cheeks. Then top off your lips with a neutral gloss and set the look with powder. Ta-da!

The glittery eye shadow, braided hair, and bronze smoky eyes we recreated earlier in the week seem like child's play compared to this look from the Chromat "Mathlete" presentation. Trust me, we could have really used a mathlete -- or at the very least a ruler -- to help us with this angular look. Instead we settled for some scotch tape and a really steady hand. Oh, and lots of Make Up Forever Pure Pigment, $20, in white.

Now, we're not saying you could pull this off in the office or your next backyard barbecue, but we loved the edginess of it. For our challenge, we skipped the alien eyebrows, slicked back her hair and came up with a Chroma-inspired look that would be fun for a fashion-forward costume party (Halloween is just around the corner!) or rave-y music festival.

Props to our intern/model, Hayley, who wore the look for the rest of the day -- granted, she didn't set foot outside of the office until it was time to go home (and she told us people in traffic next to her openly gawked). Click to see our take on the Chromat look.
