00:02My name is Erin Terry and I'm an account director at Refinery29.
00:07I'm Alexa Rhodes and I'm a producer at Refinery29.
00:11Makeup and beauty definitely can elevate a look.
00:15It just amplifies beauty that is already existing.
00:18I'm for sure a proponent of beauty within and it coming outside.
00:23When I heard about the CVS Epic Beauty event, I knew I had to be involved
00:27because over the pandemic I really tried to nail the no makeup makeup look.
00:32So I really hope that this challenge pushes me out of my comfort zone.
00:38Okay, you go first.
00:40Oh my God.
00:41All right, so I'm doing 90s throwback.
00:44Oh my gosh.
00:46Abstract and artsy.
00:48Whoa, that's exciting.
00:50That is something I never do.
00:51I'm very like no makeup makeup look.
00:54And here I feel like lots of color.
00:56I think that's cute.
00:58What about you?
00:58I think with the 90s, it's definitely a lip liner moment.
01:04Some lashes, maybe a matte sort of finish.
01:0890s supermodel-ish.
01:10I see that for you.
01:11We'll see.
01:11Okay, I'm so excited to see you at the CVS Epic Beauty event.
01:15Yes, me too.
01:16Let's go.
01:21Love a good sale.
01:22Same.
01:26I see we're over here by the primer, so I would love to grab a primer.
01:31I think I'm going for hydration.
01:33Okay, perfect.
01:34Priming Glow Mist.
01:36Eight hours of hydration.
01:38I need this.
01:38So hopefully it stays on the budget because it's got a lot of things to buy.
01:42Okay, well I'm gonna go.
01:43Let's divide and conquer.
01:45All right, let's do it.
01:45So I love Maybelline's line.
01:48Curl Bounce.
01:49Very excited to use this.
01:52Speaking of the eyes, I need some lashes.
01:56So these are gonna be the moves.
01:57Oh my gosh.
01:58I love to see all this diversity of colors.
02:03And I think I've got my three, so I get to buy two and get one free.
02:06Since CoverGirl's having such a good deal right now, I definitely want to get this foundation.
02:11The 220 creamy natural.
02:14This really was an epic beauty sale.
02:17I know.
02:18I'm excited about this.
02:20Let's see.
02:21I know.
02:22I'm scared.
02:22I'm like not good at the budget, but let's see.
02:25You first.
02:25Ladies first.
02:40I'm so excited to see yours with the color.
02:42It's gonna be so bold.
02:44Gosh, it'll be great.
02:50Beauty is where I really have a lot of fun, so I can face a look on how I'm feeling
02:54that day.
02:54What I wear on the outside, including my makeup, is a reflection of me.
03:01I work on a lot of editorial projects, and beauty content was something I never thought I'd actually be working
03:07on.
03:08I absolutely am obsessed with it because confidence comes from within, and getting to do that every day with different
03:14people is so exciting for me.
03:17How much more time do you need, Alexa?
03:19I feel like I'm ready.
03:22Ready?
03:22How about you?
03:23I think I'm ready, too.
03:24All right.
03:24Let's do it.
03:25Let's go.
03:26Okay.
03:27Oh my gosh.
03:29Oh my gosh.
03:31You look amazing.
03:32I love your look.
03:34Look at your eyes.
03:34Can you see this?
03:36Yes.
03:36The pink, the blue.
03:37I love that.
03:38I feel like you could bring the 90s makeup back.
03:40Like this is it.
03:41The lip liner, perfect choice.
03:43Thank you so much.
03:44And the highlighter.
03:45You got a highlighter.
03:46I love that.
03:47I think we did good.
03:49I think we did really good.
03:50I think we did really good.
03:51I feel like we're the A-team and we did it on a budget.
03:54We did.
03:55We did good.
04:00We did good.
04:01We did good.
