Throughout the year, we have decked out our Calyxta Girls in fabulous different looks, fit for every diverse personality and mood, using our finest beauty products. Here is a rundown of our favorite looks:

1. Fresh, natural makeup

SAM SAHDWANI

Why this look rocks: It’s easy to be in awe of a barefaced beauty who seemingly did not put much effort into looking so good. But ssshhh, no one has to know that even the most natural look requires a bit of cleverly placed concealer, major eyebrow skills, and a dash of gloss. If done correctly, you’ll look low-key but effortlessly pretty.

2. Peach Perfect

HINDY WEBER-TANTOCO

Why this look rocks: Peach brings out your inner girly girl, but with a pop of spunk. It looks natural without being totally boring. It’s for those days you want some color without going overboard. Best to complement a peach lip with a subtle peach blush on your cheeks.

3. Rock n Roll with Greige Lips

Why this look rocks: This look brings out your inner rock chic. It boosts your confidence to the max and makes you ready to wow a crowd. The key is in the bold, unexpected, dark grunge lip. Pair with a bold eyeshadow shade, and be ready to be a scene-stealer.

STEPHANIE KIENLE

Why this look rocks: Blue eyes seem to have a universally appealing effect. Most people get lost in them. Unfortunately, not all of us were gifted with the blue-eyed gene. But you can instantly draw gazes to your peepers with bright blue eyeliner and shadow. It lifts them up and makes them stand out, so whatever color your irises are, it’s guaranteed all eyes will be on you.

6. Gorgeous Icy White

ISABEL ROCES

Why this look rocks: It’s fun to do and even more fun once you’re done and finally get to show it off! It’s almost like your face is a palette and you get to show off a work of art after blending dark pink and blue eyeshadow. It’s a very diva-esque look that is guaranteed to make heads turn. Perfect for a night out, a formal occasion, or a performance.

8. Golden Gaze
