Makeover

I went to Sephora today for a makeover. Basically, I have no idea what basics I need, really. What colors for foundation, blush & lipstick... I'm good with eye makeup, but that's honestly as far as I'm comfortable with makeup or skincare in general. 

I'm always a bit nervous giving people free reign with my makeup, which is silly when I'll let my hairdresser cut & color my hair however she wants. Makeup is much less permanent than hair colors/styles! 

Anyway, I said I prefer a natural look, and that I'm not looking to be "perfect." Since I'm really clueless about what I want (aside from easy to do) I wasn't much help. On the other hand, I also think it's easier for them since I was open to ideas.  

This is the end result. Gotta say I'm loving it!! Natural, understated, and relatively easy. Not my 5-min eyeliner & mascara then run out the door, but reasonable. If you're looking for a makeover and want to learn application techniques, I recommend Sephora :) I love that they're not pushy about sales, and I came home with several samples of the skin care products used. Thanks Janna for a wonderful experience!
