I will be 35 in 2 months. I feel really good about it. I have been really depressed for my last 2 birthdays and didn't want to do a thing (not like me at all) for them so I'm looking forward to being excited this year.
I have dry/dehydrated skin (under control though), fair/rosy colouring, dark hair, blue/grey eyes. I usually go for a fairly dewy natural look but also enjoy a red or fuchsia lipstick and a bit of black eyeliner sometimes.
I would like to invest in some good quality make up, specifically foundation, concealer, maybe bronzer, powder, lipsticks, mascara. I'm happy with my Rimmel/Bourjois type eyeshadows and I'm happy with my Stila cream blushers so that's fine. A liquid/gel eyeliner for a totally cack handed novice would be good too.
Which brand would you recommend? I may go to a department store counter to have my make up done and then buy a couple of products so which would you recommend? I have heard great things about Dior foundations and Bobbi Brown everything, but I want all make up to be wearable in the day, so nothing that gives a mask-like effect.
Budget will be about 150
Thanks all
