I want to go to a counter and have my makeup done because I pretty much have no idea what I'm doing when it comes to make up. While I wouldn't be opposed to buying a product or two there, I don't want to load up on makeup that I may not wear that much.
Is the counter lady going to pressure me to buy a bunch of stuff? I hate looking like a cheap wuss for not buying stuff but well, I am a cheap wuss. Also, does anyone have any suggestions about what I should buy (e.g. it's more important to have a good conceler than mascara or something like that)? Thanks gals!

I've gone to Clinique and BeneFit counters (like 9 Clinique ones and 3 BeneFit ones) and I've never ever been pressured - I'd tell them what I liked, they'd make some suggestions, and I'd walk away with anything from a lipstick to a shopping bag full of stuff.
I think the most important thing to get that's "nice" is skin care and foundation products. A lot of times if I want to try a trendy new color I'll buy the Target version of it, then upgrade to the Clinique one if I like it - but I always want a nice foundation, blush, and bronzer.
