I love wearing make-up. I haven't been wearing it much, since last winter (yup, more than a year ago), when I had recurring conjunctivitis -- that was the last time I wore my contacts, too. OMG, that was awful. But I digress. I have just recently started wearing make-up (almost) every day again. I had forgotten how much fun it is. I enjoy being able to look different every day.
I'm not going to go overboard and create a make-up filter or anything like that, but I did want to recommend, for all the other girly-girls out there, that you check out aromaleigh. They make mineral cosmetics, like Bare Escentuals, but at a significantly lower price. And I love it. They have foundation that actually matches my skin tone! Not only do they have eyeshadow colors that have broken me out of my standard shades-of-brown palette, but they have colors that I have been looking for without success for years! (Hello, Bronze and 14K!) They even have eyeshadow colors that are blacklight responsive.
As a bonus, they send you three free samples with each purchase. They're just tiny ziploc baggies with a little eye shadow or lipstick in them, but they actually last a while. It's enough to give you an idea of whether or not you want to buy the new colors. Great stuff.
