well some cameras are now coming with like a beauty mode built into them. i know samsung, cassio, fuji and sony have versions of this.
as far as actual cameras i highly rate the sony dscwx5. now i'm not sure how much it is in the states however in the uk we sell it for about £250 so perhaps it will be nearer $200 for you because stuff is cheaper for you guys! i like this camera because it takes awesome quality photos, and has a background defocus setting which makes it look like an image an slr would take. which would be good for make up shots! plus you have sweep panarama mode which is freaking awesome! and it can take photos in 3d too. plus it's brand new out so you know it wont be going out of date any time soon. oh and it comes in a cute purple colour!!

aw that sucks! i thought you guys usually get it cheaper than us
We usually do! So that's really weird. Prices on electronics can be super high in the states though.

I find that a lot of the time you can edit the saturation that your camera gives, they have settings which let you do this.
Also, try using different light settings, I find my colours show up the best when I'm by a window.
Flash has a habit of washing colours out so taking photos by the window is usually best as a flash isn't really needed in those circumstances.
Another thing you could do is edit the photographs on something like Picasa/Picnik. A lot of beauty bloggers do this because cameras are sometimes a bit funny at picking up the shades, I know mine is.
