Altoid is a makeup geek, prompting me to ask if you've ever considered doing a bit of orange eyeshadown near the crease and up (outer eye) for special occasion drama?
SK, you look good too! I know the wrinkle/powder pain. Unless you are being photographed, the zinc oxide line concealers are great. (they reflect flash oddly tho).
I may need to try primer one day soon.
I use liquid-to-powder foundation over key areas, then line upper and lower eye (50% and 25% from outer corner), beige & brown shadow, plum highlight for eyes, mascara. Shadow on eyebrows. Blush if going full face foundation. Lipstick just does nothing for me. I want to wear it but nope.
Orange doesn’t work for me in eyeshadow. But I will flirt with maroon for yuks. I have to be careful with dark things because I’m dark. It can go cadaver very easily.

CindysphinxHere's the link to the eyebrow mascara:
409239" target="_blank">Eyebrow MascaraThis company, Benefit Cosmetics, makes the best mascara I have ever used, called Bang. It just . . . It lifts, it separates, it doesn't clump, it lasts. But a regular bottle is $25! So I have a mini I bought for $15, which I ration.

CindysphinxHmmm. The eyebrow stuff used to come in a mini. Maybe check with the manufacturer?
