So, I grew up loving makeup. In the 80's, I'd smear mom's orange lipstick all over my lips, and rub on some green eye shadow as often as I could sneak into her supply. (Right now she'd be arguing that her lipstick was not orange, it was apricot!) Regardless, I never really wavered from my makeup obsession. But I'm not a snob about it. I have to be realistic with my money, and I can't go buying all the fancy items I'd like to have. Thanks to Ulta, I can pretty much get my entire face made over for less than $50. Summertime is no different; I still love makeup, but I get to be less aggressive.

15 Tips To Staying, Feeling and Looking Younger
Staying, feeling and looking young is one of the many challenges faced by busy moms. In an ever-changing fast pace world, moms are taking on more responsibilities and adding more stress to their lives. Over time, these burdens wreak havoc, slowly deteriorating the body and finally making people older than they look. There are ways you can look younger, healthier, and more vibrant without going under the knife or paying for expensive products. Here are 15 tips on staying, feeling and looking younger. 1.
