Is Mary Kay make up worth the extra expense? Face beauty tips.. please share...

I am a middle aged woman.. sometimes looking in the mirror.. I can hear the words to Aerosmith’s “dream on” playing in the background…. “all these lines on my face getting clearer, the past is gone”...

I always purchased cheap make up, lowest cost I could find…it served me well over the years…. getting older.. I am caring more to capture the best face I can.. to treat my skin the healthiest it can be treated.. (I do use oil of olay)... and apply the finest make up… some things are worth it..

So I seek your beauty tips / advice on make up.. brands.. ..please share…
