Hello Beautiful Lifers, Have you ever gone shopping for makeup whether at a department store counter, or, at a CVS, only to go home, try it on and think to yourself "what was I thinking?".   Makeup colors can be very tricky, as a professional makeup artist, I've been studying color and in particular, makeup colors and which looks best on which skin tone.  But, one thing, I found is that all makeup is NOT created equal.  Nor, are the treatment products. Today I will cover how to find the right colors for your skin's temperature and how to find your skin's temperature now. So, what do you do when you went to the store and purchased all these goodies?  Well, the first thing I want you to do BEFORE you go to the counter to purchase your goodies is to ask them their return policy for makeup.   Most places you can return open makeup products as long as you let them know you have opened and tried the product.  This will be sure that it doesn't end up back in the aisle. I had a friend who never took anything back to the store to return items.  It made me crazy.  To think she wasted hundreds of dollars and left it for them to have.  She'd never wear the clothes she bought that she didn't like, or, any makeup or skincare (even expensive perfumes).  These all can be returned.  Again, just double check with the store's policies and you'll know. Whatever you do, do not use the samples that they put out on the counters.  There are a gazillion of bacteria that get into them.  Purchase the item and if you don't like it, be sure to return it. I also cover some ways on how to beat S.A.D. (Seasonal Affective Disorder) (yes, it's a real thing) and make your winter feel less dreary. So grab your favorite pair of ear buds, your favorite beverage and pop on over.  I'll see you inside.   Cheers, Dawn-Marie Let's Stay in Touch: IG: @DawnMariesFashionFinds   P.S.  Want more beauty and skincare tips?  Pick up a copy of the 151 Secrets book today: https://151Secrets.com (151 Secrets Book)      Support this podcast
