Tastes in clothing changes as you get older, and so should your makeup as you age. When you’re young, “glitter is good!” As time goes on, you leave college, start a career and then suddenly become responsible adults and have to look like one too. Cosmetics become something to be used to enhance features instead of a toy. Read on for BettyConfidential’s guide to fabulosity at any age.

@Kitty-c'mon now! She's a role model for thousands of women. She's in her 40s and looks fantastic.

I think your 20s are the perfect time to experiment with different makeup looks... go crazy!

@kitty: SJP overload! I'm over SATC and SJP

I think Eva Mendes could go without makeup every single day and she would still look glowing and fabulous.

I LOVE SJP...she'll fade again after SATC2, so just relax, girls! Betty, don't listen to the haters...they're jealous of SJP! LOL... And BTW, I CAN and DO rock glitter in my 40's... NOT all the time, but on occasion, over-the-top looks can work at ANY age! When I am a little old lady, I will be rockin' PURPLE hair! HAVE FUN...EVEN WHEN YOU'RE OLD AND GRAY! :)

Enuf with SJB -- she does not look young for her age and she is not pretty at all
