This Friday I am celebrating my 32nd anniversary and my hubby is taking me out on the town and I want to get my makeup done, Can anyone suggest a good place to get it done?

Any cosmetic counter at a dept store will do your make up they do require a purchase, also Sephora does make up but I am not sure there is a fee for that

Does your salon do makeup? If so try them because they see you quite often and know what type of look you like. Happy Anniversary!

Happy Anniversary!
My suggestion would be to find a Bobby Brown makeup counter- they always do nice, subtle makeup- never "over the top". There SA's are very knowledgeable.
IMO if you go to Sephora, you never know if you are getting someone brand new that may not know how to make you look your best . (this has been my experience at times there). They also require a $50.0 purchase requirement for makeover's- not exactly sure what other places would charge.
I also second Tricolor's suggestion- if your salon does makeup I would definitely look into that.
Either way, enjoy your evening out with your DH!

Congratulations.
If you have a Bare Minerals boutique nearby, they do make overs for free.
Aveda stores and salons offer that service, not sure if they charge or not.
My tidbit of advice, don't hesitate to make your preferences known. I realize you want to look especially fabulous and maybe want to look different than your usual, but you still want to look like you.

MAC does makeup for special occasions but if you make a purchase, any and all department store makeup counters will do makeup for you.

I think Merle Norman's will do it with an appointment and I am sure they would like you to purchase something as well. Also if you have a Spa near you, they usually do makeovers for a fee, the one near me uses Glo Minerals...Otherwise a makeup counter at a local mall does them, but they do expect you to make a purchase and you really have to be specific on what type of look you are going for. I had one a few years ago at Estee Lauder and boy oh boy, I couldn't wait to get home and scrub my face-waaay too much makeup, so be very specific as to what you are looking for!!! Happy Anniversary!!!!!Have fun!
