While you may not have the guts to sport a Victoria Beckham bob or dye your hair platinum blond, experimenting with make-up is an easy way to freshen up your style. Remember, it's not permanent, so feel free to try bright red lipstick or purple eye shadow—you may be surprised what looks good on you. Hey, what’s the worst that can happen? You laugh at the way a certain color looks on you and you have to wash it off? There's no real commitment, unlike hair color or tattoos.
Most department store makeup counters offer fast, free makeovers by professionally trained makeup artists. Even if you don’t want any new products, you may pick up some application tips and tricks that will help with changing your look.
Come armed with ideas and don’t be afraid to express them. You have as much time as you need. When the makeover is done, the artist will recommend that you purchase the items they used. (They are there to sell, after all!) If you loved a particular shade of shadow or lipstick, go for it, but don’t feel pressured into a sale. You can always come back or just keep experimenting with different looks in the meantime.
