I wear it for work, or if I'm going out somewhere, but it's basically four items... foundation to even out the skin tone, loose powder with some bronzer in it to give a healthy glow (I buy the loose powder, and then sprinkle some bronzer into the container so I manage the amount so I don't look "bronze" lol). Then a bit of blush. Then lastly, colored lip gloss. Something shiny, sheer and sparkly is good. The girls at middle school level are very critical of how their teachers look. Although they yelled at me the other day for being on a diet, lol. (And no, I'm not one of those "oh I need to lose 10lbs" people. I need to lose about 80lbs )

I am, however, a fanatic about washing my face. I have cleansers, scrubs, toners, masks... anything for smooth, healthy skin. Usually Aveeno or something mild, nothing with acid stuff in it). I find that if I keep my face clean and healthy, I use less makeup.

I hate feeling foundation on my face to begin with. Many times when I'm just running to the store or whatever, I'll wear the loose powder with the light bronzer in it. It just gives a nice even finish. I used to wear concealer and eyeshadow and mascara, but my allergies are really bad and I get hives on the insides of my eyelids!!
