I use some antiaging liquid foundation now as the cheap dollar store pressed powder seems to really dry my skin out whereas it didn't when I was younger.

I also sometimes use a cheap $1 a jar alpha hydroxy lotion on my face and use hand lotions on hands. I never bothered with moisturizer or lotions in my younger days.

I find myself using less makeup but more moisturizers. I have very dry skin and it must have lots of moisturizers or it gets itchy.

I think I probably wear less make up now than I did when I was younger. I used to be a nursing home administrator and I went to work with a full face. Now I at least try for eye make up and mascara.

And, since I am menopausal, most make up sweats off fast! LOL! :eek:

I had a lot of sweats after having my youngest daughter, but it turned out to be thyroid...so I had the left part of it removed. No sweating now.

I have never really worn a lot of makeup ever......no foundations or anything heavy like that. I do use really good skin care stuff (Phylosophy) so I find that I don't need as much makeup as I once used!
