Finding makeup is easy: There are web sites and catalogs and stores devoted to everything from foundation to fake lashes. Finding the right makeup, well, that’s a different story. Enter Face Time Cosmetics, an online shop started by Linsey Snyder, who founded Face Time after an on-going search for beautiful, stylish, age-appropriate makeup left her with an empty wallet and drawers full of so-so cosmetics. Instead of starting your own frustrating search and assembling your wedding day makeup by piecing together products from different brands, simply pick your look (Romantic, Stunning, or Sultry) and Face Time will send you a Beauty in a Box kit, which includes all the items you’ll need—primer, blush, eye shadows, lip liner, gloss, shimmer powder, and mascara—plus step-by-step application instructions. With the perfect makeup on hand, you can enjoy an extra yoga class or a quiet afternoon knowing that, come your wedding day, all your beauty needs will be taken care of. Talk about saving face.
oh my gosh, this is brilliant - thanks for the tip!!

This is such a great idea and the packaging is beautiful. I just checked the site and they also have Custom Beauty In a Boxes...that is what I want!

cute...giving this as a gift would be a fun way to make sure none of your B-Maids show up with a dark smoky eye for a morning wedding or (gasp!) GLITTER

Haha. That is so true! You always have that one friend who wears crazy makeup and this seems like a polite way to get your girls to look appropriate. That is so funny...and so so true!

The Custom boxes that have each name written by a calligrapgher. Very cool. I guess you can have your own look created for your wedding. Is that the idea?
