Hi all, I'm new

Hi everyone. I am new to this message board and wanted to say hello. I turned 30 in Jan. and for my birthday, I treated myself to some new makeup, since I never wore anything except lipgloss up until that point. I am still practicing with different techniques and colors. I'm having so much fun, and feel so much better about myself, but I am new, so I tend to get overwhemled by the differnt brands and products out there! I am using AV for night time and I LOVE it. I am thinking of going for mneral makeup for everyday, since the application seems quick, and I live in FL where it is always hot.
I have dry skin and also need to update my skincare regimine before I start to show signs of aging.
My best freind is a makeup junkie, but I don't really like to go to her because she likes to put pink and purple (ugg) on my face. I like browns and want to try some greys for my eyes. I have light skin, brown hair and blue eyes. My light skin has a pink undertone to it.
Well, I'm sure to be asking for lots of advice, and looking forward to meeting all of you ladies!

Re: Hi all, I'm new

Hi there! Welcome to MUT! I've beena member for a few months. While I don't post that often I read the post almost daily to get ideas and to see whats the latest out there. I'm a little bit older than you ,34, but like you I never wore much makeup before until I found this site. Usually just a lipgloss and maybe a bit of mascara. I'm sure you will also get a ton of ideas from this site and the girls here are wonderful at answering any questions you may have.

Oh yeahI almost forgot I have dry skin too and I just recieved my Bare Minerals foundation, mineralveil,and clear radiance in the mail. I find that I need to put a fairly heavy moisturizer on underneath the minerals so I don't get the dried out look. I do love them though because I could never get used to the feel of liquid makeup. Liquid foundation always made me feel like I had a mask on.I guess I've been blessed because I never really had that bad of skin concerning acne and such so I never really had the need for it. I've only ever had to deal with this miserable dry skin.

Have fun with allyour new makeup and welcome again!
