Spring Clean Your Makeup Bag

Celebrity makeup artist Audie Metcalf, whose clientele includes Susan Lucci, picks spring's must-have beauty products.  And the best part? You can get them at your local drug store.

1. Mascara: $6.47. Audie uses CoverGirl Volume Exact Mascara on her celeb clients because it's "hands down the best cheap mascara, and it never flakes."

Tip: Mascara only has a shelf life of three months, so if yours is dry and clumpy, it's time to replace it!

2. Blush: $8.39. Almay's Smart Shade gel blush--"Dab onto the apples of your cheeks, and the color transforms into the perfect shade for your skin tone." Perfect for Moms on the go. A little makeup artist trick? Use it on your lips, too.

3. Foundation: $11.59. Who has time to cake their face? Neutrogena Glow Sheers are a perfect alternative to tinted moisturizer, and they even have a little bit of sheen to brighten up the cheeks.
4. Eye Shadow: $7.99. Audie prefers a natural-looking eye. Neutrogena Mineral Sheers are "beautiful, sheer shades that have a barely-there quality." 
5. Lips: $4.99. Get rid of all those old glosses and refill with Covergirl Wetslicks: "They're cheap and come in tons of lovely shades."
6. Bronzer: $9.99. If you don't have time for ANY of the above, all you really need is a bit of bronzer to instantly brighten your face: Just add on your cheeks, forehead, and chin and look like you just got back from vacation.

what about for someone with aging skin? Can you recommend some good foundation choices? Thanks

That Almay smart gel is the best and it lasts all day and is half the price of what Smashbox charges for its version.

There was a time, not too long ago, when life was really difficult for women who required wide shoes. Nearly all shoe stores did not carry Wide width shoes for women. Women wide width shoes were for that reason problematic to locate, and the women who needed them often had to search far and wide, and travel long distances, just to uncover shoes that fit them perfectly. Happily, things have greatly improved, primarily due to the magic of the internet.
