Make-up ? - Foundation
What do you use? I think I need to try a foundation. Normally I
just wear powder as a foundation, but (insert tears) it seems to be
highlighting those lovely wrinkles 
. So I'm wondering if a foundation would help fill in those spots?
Oh, and while I'm at it, do you use an eye moisturizer? That seems to be the area hit worst with these wrinkles. Boo to aging.
Maybe I should just hit up Sephora - do they let you try out multiple items while you're there? Have you had good experiences there?

Re: Make-up ? - Foundation
I use Bare Minerals, but I've found I only like it in conjunction with Dr. Feel Good by benefit which is a primer.
I don't personally use a eye moisturizer. I use TJ's face lotion with vitamin E, and I LOVE it! My MIL raves about the Olay Total Effects eye cream that you can get anywhere.
I also have always had great luck and Sephora, and some of the people are super helpful although I've always preferred to just wonder around on my own.
I use Bare Minerals right now. I have trouble with liquid foundation. It all looks orange on me. Sephora helped me find one that's a little better, but I ran out and haven't used it in a while.
I used to use Skin Ceuticals skin products and they were doing the most amazing things for my skin, especially around my eyes. But I can't afford it anymore
Late to the party, but I would recommend Sephora to try stuff out. Foundation and eye cream can be expensive, even at the drug store, and Sephora has an open return policy if you hate it.
I love Laura Mercier oil-free foundation, and I like her primer as well. If you're worried about fine lines, a primer will make a big difference. I also like That Gal by Benefit for primer.
For eye cream, right now I'm using a Neutrogena brand, but I'm not overwhelmed. I used Eye Con by Benefit, loved that, especially if you ever struggle with dark circles, it seemed to help a lot with those. I do eye cream day and night, it makes a difference.
