Tww things really. I never used to do anything except put on some makeup for color, but I changed as I got al ittle older. I am very devoted to daily skin care. I use Mary Kay and cleansea nd moisturize twice per day. When I don't do it for a few days (like if I am sick or whatever), I can see the difference. Secondly, BRONZER. I love this stuff! It gives the skin a little color and brings your face to life, even when you may not have that glow naturally at the time

fox2star, bronzer is excellent in my opinion. You can go over your entire face (cheekbones, temples, chin, bridge of nose, eyelids) or just use it on your cheeks or where you like to wear blush. I like to wear it in the summer because I wear a lot of sunblock on my face, neck, and chest.
I read in an article that the key to finding a good bronzer is to find one that is more "red" instead of "brown"
I love estee lauder's bronzer, and bare escentuals "warmth"

I swear by La Mer face cream and their other products. Love the way it smells, soooo wonderful!! If I have special event to attend where I know I will wear shoes that show my feet, I start using La Mer for two weeks prior. Heels and toes are smooth as silk by even time. Concealor is another item that I cannot and will not live with out. Highlighter, the powder you put on your upper cheekbones. I just make sure not to go sparkly with the highlight powder and I make sure that powder does not go anywhere near my crows feet, it magnifies them by 5X.

Hi Jes,
I buy it at Nordstrom.com. I am sure you can buy it any any major department store.

Lori, you are soooo right on. I never realized that with the right concealor I don't really wear foundation anymore. As I have gotten older, (like a fine wine of course!)I use concealor all the time and rarely use foundation. Love Revlon concealor and then an additional layer of bare minerals fair foundation powder and I get FABULOUS coverage that looks great! BTW, I am neither rich or famous but darn it I deserve the La Mer. To splurge on that stuff, I have the giant $1K jar, I do not get my nails or hair done. That includes coloring and Japanese straightning. I also seriously cut back on eating out and now I use my La Mer guilt free!

Ebay is a great place for Bobbi Brown. It is usually were I go for most of my department store cosmetics. I don't recommend it for the expensive stuff like Clair Depau (might be wrong on spelling there), La Mer and other stuff. Reason is that these creams are very sensitive to temperature changes and you never know how long its gonna sit it the mail carriers vehicle. Also how can you be sure it is a product that hasn't sat in someones home for 2 years??
Forgot to mention, Trish Mcevoy cosmetic brushes. Russian squirrel and sable brushes. Looooove them. Chanel, Mac, Bobbi Brown and others feel like sand paper across your face once you use TM brushes. They are pricey but if well taken care of they last a long long time.

I use Mary Kay (I am a MK rep). They used to be three different colored beads but now it is just a pad (like blush). The color was always great but now the application is great too! No matter what brand you buy, don't buyh beads! It is so aggravating to use when you lose one with each application & it goes rolling acros the room! LOL
