Best Make up for Women in Their 30'S
Okay I honestly cannot remember the last time that I actually liked the way my make up looked. Something happened to my skin after I had my little pumpkin and definitely after I turned 30. I wear less make up because I feel like when I put more on it looks worse. NEED HELP!

If you don't plan on getting pregnant any time soon, I would suggest Obagi skin care. It was recommended by my dermatologist and it's amazing.
As for make up, I love Bare Minerals. They have a store at Willowbend Mall and I think one at North Park. Of course it is also sold at Ulta, but I like trained sales associates with real knowledge of the products I am buying.
GL!

The reason you don't like your makeup is because your skin/complection has changed and you need different/(probably) better skincare. I agree with the other mom...go to the makeup counters and ask for some samples of moisturizers, serums, masks, etc. Try them before you buy them. As far as actual makeup goes, Chanel, Dior, Lancome are good. None of them are too pricey. BTW, DiorShow is the greatest mascara! Have fun trying new things.

I recommend going to a department store and getting one of the makeup counter people to give you a free makeover (of course, it's "free" because they're going to try to sell you what they put on you!). I've had a couple of great ones at Clinique over the years. I'll go in when I'm getting bored of my current look, and ask for help! I've found that it definitely helps to be vocal about what your style is, however, and what you do and don't like--I tell them that I'm definitely low-maintenance these days, and what to look good but not "made up" in 5 minutes or less. Most sales associates know that if they give you what you ask for, you're more likely to buy it. Oh, and don't feel like you need to buy everything they put on you. I usually go in with a budget of what I am willing to spend, then buy a few new items (e.g. a couple of new eye shadows, or a new lipstick) based upon what parts of the "new look" they give me I like best. GL!
