If you can, try to pick up either last month's or this month's 'In Style' magazine - it had a FABULOUS section on 'what to wear' etc. for any age - hair, makeup, the lot..... the big thing is as you get more 'seasoned', it's best to leave the powder alone ... it makes lines deeper and they show more than less! As well, it allows your skin to breathe (and avoid those pesky breakouts - Hello? Am I thirteen again???
)
And for down the road, to get used to putting it on, even if it is for more special occasions only, just spend a night in, put on some music that rocks you out, and just PLAY ... (yep, seriously) - that's usually the best way to try a new look, or something you seen that you liked .... just be sure to cleanse REALLY well with your *new* cleanser and moisturize well before you go to bed...
And never,
never go to bed with make-up on - I know it may not seem much, but it makes a big difference as sleep is when the skin repairs itself .....
Enjoy - just some tips from my g'ma, mum, and I.
