"I'm heading to a cocktail party and even though the lighting will probably be dim, I still want even, glowing skin. So I used Pixi Flawless Beauty Fluid, $30, and Pixi Wakeup Concealer, $18, to even out my skin tone and perk up my dark circles.

"Since I already have a fair amount of pink in my skin, I used the bronze shade in the bottom level of the palette to contour my face and add a little color to my cheekbones."

"I wanted to create a silvery/blue smoky eye to add a fun pop of color to my look, so I used the shadows in the second column of the palette. I started with the white shadow, using the sponge applicator to press it onto my lid for full coverage."

"Next I mixed the blue and gray shadows with my brush and applied the mixture to the outer corner of my lid and blended it into my crease. I also smudged the shadow out past my eye a bit.

"To finish my eyes I used Pixi Lash Line Ink, $16, on my upper and lower lashlines to define my eyes and applied Pixi Large Lash Mascara, $18 to my lashes."

"Since my eye look is definitely dramatic, I kept my lip color soft and just used a bit of the peach colored gloss in the palette. And with that I think I look ready for a cocktail party! Mixing the two shadows took a little trial and error to get the perfect combination, but I love the finished look, dramatic and very on trend this season."

"I'm going to my friend's afternoon wedding today, so I want a glam look, but still something right for daytime. I started with NP Set It Takes Two Concealer and Foundation Pot, $35, to even out my skin tone.

"I used the soft pink blush/highlighter shade in the palette on the apples of my cheeks to bring them out and add some color to my face."
