    I like the feeling of no makeup.....but personally I find I look better with a little eye makeup as my lashes are quite light. Its just a personal preference and I def feel more pretty when I get all done up with hair and makeup! In saying that.....I also can't wait to get home and wash it off! LOL

    I just find I look older and tired without some eye makeup and sometimes something to even out my skin tone. I have lighter skin and have excema so my skin can be quite patchy at times. My bf tells me all the time I don't need makeup but I am not happy with how I look without it. A little liner and a coat of mascara go a long way with this girl! :tongue:

    Its all a personal prefernce! Some people look better with makeup and others without! Do what makes YOU feel good! :smile:

    Of course you're not the only one. Most of my female friends don't wear much, if any. I think it's awesome if you feel good without it on and if you have the healthy, clear skin to not need to wear it. Go you!

    I look like death without makeup. If I don't cover up my blemishes and under-eye circles and throw some color on my cheeks and eyes, I'm very plain Jane. I HATE plain Jane. I wear makeup because I think it's fun to apply it in the morning, I look better with it on, and I feel better about myself when I'm more "put together." The only time I don't wear makeup is on a lazy day when I don't leave the house or just run to the gas station or something. (And when I sleep, of course.)

    I think a lot girls overdo the makeup and give it a bad reputation. I use A LOT of products, but my makeup NEVER looks caked on or heavy-handed. I make sure that it looks natural, only better!

    To each her own. I hate when people say bad things about girls that don't wear makeup just as much as I hate when girls that don't wear makeup make negative comments about girls who do. Who cares? Do what makes you feel good and let everyone else do the same without your judgment!

    I quit drinking.

    I only do it now when I go to work or go out, or stay in at night, and in the mornings. Also on the potty.

    Thanks for the update, OP. I think I speak for most, if not all, when I say that we've been waiting and waiting for you to divulge this information.

    Feel better?

    And your life is so full that you actually took the time to click on this topic and reply to it. How generous of you.

    Statistically speaking, I'm pretty sure my husband and I have sex more often when I have makeup on. So...I'll keep wearing makeup and continue to care less if other people think I'm vain for doing so.

    Lots of women like to wear makeup (myself included).

    Lots of women prefer no makeup.

    All are beautiful (well, there are a few cases of makeup done just wrong, but .... :laugh:)

    Do what makes you feel beautiful and confident. Don't worry about what other women do. See the beauty in them, whether or not they choose makeup, etc.

    Mostly I like wearing it. I feel more 'put together'. If I don't have any on, I get the 'OMG you look so tired' comments because I have naturally dark circles under my eyes, and my eye lashes are quite light. I'm also of a certain age where a little bit of color is needed IMO. :laugh: OTOH, when on vacation and with a nice suntan, I go for days without it and not miss it.

    It's quite funny - in my youth, I used sunscreen on my face religiously. Now I purposely go without it a lot of the time because I've started worrying about not getting enough sun exposure. And my complexion looks better IMO.

    I'm a girly girl. I don't go out without makeup, hair, and nails done. Can't help it, I'd feel naked without.

    are you comfortable around the guy you are dating to let him see you with out it

    I have never fallen for a girl completely until i saw her natural beauty. And believe me ladies, you are all naturally beautiful.
    I like girly girls, i also like a woman to be comfortable enough with me to say 'this is me, love me for who i am"

    and speaking to McCindy's point, i have put on makeup for one reason or another and OMG, that stuff is heavy!

    I don't wear foundation, have in the past but doesn't seem to matter if I do or not. I do wear eye makeup. Funny thing is when I was younger I did every but now I will not go out of the house without it. I also believe I look better with eye makeup then not which is why I wear it.

    I don't care what make up women wear or don't wear. I just don't like dealing with it, having to wash it off. I don't wear eye makeup because I will always rub my eyes and smudge it across my face. Lol

    Uh oh, did this thread turn ugly?

    All I've ever seen in your photos is hotness (as evidenced in your profile pic). I've never noticed any makeup. My eyes were busy elsewhere I guess. :laugh:

    I think it is personal preference...what anyone does with their hair, face & nails is their business. IMHO

    WELL one exception...don't paint on your eyebrows that's just disturbing :bigsmile:

    nothing wrong if you wear makeup or you dont. Its all about self image. Make up makes me feel confidant and put together which in return makes me happy. I dont wear a lot but the little I do makes me feel 100x better.

    To the men replying here saying they like "natural" girls without makeup - let's get one thing straight. You don't know a damn thing about makeup and, if it's done correctly, you won't notice it's even there! Those girls you say are "naturally beautiful" - I bet at least half of them have makeup on. As if men are even observant enough to notice such things. You know you're too busy staring at our chests and butts to notice if there's makeup on our faces anyway.

    Not to start a debate but I always said "Natural beauty requires no makeup"

    well, that blows....

    :laugh: I love you!

    I think it's nice to go without, but it's also fun to wear it. Just like yoga pants are nice, but so is a sexy dress. And I do see your point about nail polish. I think being a scientist...it just seems unhygenic to have long nails that you cant see through with god know what underneath. (I'm weird about this though).

    I actually agree.

    I posted in the other thread as well. I LOVE makeup and do myself up when I go to work as I do work in a legal office.

    But on the weekends or when I'm at home, I don't wear anything and i feel alot better and my boyfriend tells me all the time I actually look better without it.

    I love buying makeup and get done up for work but I love being without it as well

    Nah, no ugliness. I just got a bad vibe since I commented on the makeup thread that the OP is referring to. Nothing but feel-goodz in that one.

    Thanks for the lovely compliment, though. :happy:

    If I don't have any on people start asking me if I'm feeling okay, that's how washed out I look without it. That said, I only wear it to work or if I'm going out. I leave the house for work twice a week and I rarely go out, so there's that.

    Me, too! I wear some light eye make up to work, because otherwise everyone asks if I am getting sick. I almost never wear make up anywhere else, mostly because I just don't want to bother with it.

    I try to imitate Rolanda when I get dressed up to go out. She's so pretty!

    I don't wear a lot of makeup. However, when I go to work, go out, etc., I do like to look well put together.. I don't wear makeup to the gym. I don't freak out about wearing makeup to the grocery story. Everyday I do put some effort into being my best. I'm not one to sit around in PJ's all day either. The better you look, the better you feel!

    I prefer women who don't wear a lot of makeup. Some is ok, but natural is just as good to me. If there is too much, you either look like a *kitten* or clown, both of which are not desirable to me.

    Just out of curiosity, could you provide an example of someone with a "natural" look?

    Yeah, my wife hardly ever wears makeup. There's a few people in my friends list that don't. Want more?

    I think she was asking for pics.

    Last time I put on makeup my husband said - "What did you do to your face." LOL when I told him I just put a little make-up on he said "I mean it looks ok - I'm just not used to it".
