What brand of makeup do you use?

I use covergirl EVERYTHING. For the past few months I've been using their whipped foundation and I like it so much, it blends really easily and it feels so light. I also use a bit of eyeshadow, pencil liner, and lashexact mascara.
Janet - if you're not sure about using eyeliner, you can also just buy an eyeliner brush, and use it with eyeshadow! It's just a fine-tipped brush, and you can make the line subtle by using it dry, or get a defined line by wetting the tip before putting it in the shadow.

You ladies have been so helpful. With these suggestions, I just may start wearing makeup a little more often. It does make me feel better, look better, I don't know..LOL There are quite a few products mentioned here that I would love to try.

The eyeliner I use is "Colorstay liquid liner" by Revlon. It comes with a soft tipped brush that's a bit like a marker, but dips in the liquid like nail polish. The brush is ver slim on the end so I can put it on in a very thin line. For someone who's as make-up UNsavvy as I am, it works well. The color I use is called Bronze brown, so it's not real dark, which is a more natural look with my coloring.

Mineral Makeup for my foundation its great...and just avon,MAC, and alot of different ones after that. I love the Revlon Face Primer

Hello, abaddon248, great to have you here. We learned a lot from some of these threads. I found out about Laura Mercier makeup and have used the face primer, base and concealer ever since. They are great products!!!

My daughters use the Bare Minerals, but personally, they just don't work well for me. The powder settles in my fine lines and makes me look older. For young people, it seems to work well though.

Hope you stay around and get to know all of us. We have a really great group here!!!

I agree with Marilyn, I like Laura Mercer the best the bare minerals I don't care for. Happy you joined us!!!

I LOVE Bare Minerals - wouldn't use anything else. Been using it for over 10 years now. It is perfect for the hot Texas summers - you don't feel a thing. My 12 year g-daughter, 32 year old daughter, and 86 year old mom ALL use Bare Minerals!!! We should buy stock! LOL!

I tried the Bare Minerals. They just give my face no life. I don't like the powdery look on me.

I don't like foundation or powder on my skin. Right now I'm using some kind of collagen, wrinkle taker outer that's pretty good, but I may go back to a moisturizer
(generic Cetaphil) for the winter. I use blush, eye shadow, and Lancome mascara
when I want to look good. I have the eyeliner already tatooed (sp?) and I thrown on some lipstick.
