No makeup

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.

I am referring to the fresh face look right after a shower.
actually kind of insulted by that remark.
Personally, i fall for the eyes first.

I like makeup. It taste like the chalk stick that come in packs of fun dip.

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 love you, too, but I don't wear nail polish.... :laugh:

Be insulted. I don't mind.

I don't like makeup and really didn't start wearing makeup until I was about 15 or 16. I wear it sometimes, but haven't worn it to work in several days. I enjoy rubbing my eyes when needed and not having to worry about smudges. However, I do love crazy nail polish colors for my toenails. That's all I ever paint.

I don't give a fuhhhh about makeup. I do like my hair looking nice though. Although if I do it is mascara. People tend to think i'm stoned 24/7 if I don't wear mascara

I don't wear it on a regular basis. It makes me sad when women say they can't go to the store or even to get the mail without it. I can't imagine being that uncomfortable in my own skin.

I like wearing it, and like how I look with minimalist/ "natural" makeup on, but I am almost always too lazy to bother. Maybe once a week I'l slap some mascara on. Maybe.

I don't want to start a battle on the makeup thread. I see a lot of people posting there that they love makeup and nail polish and love to wear it and feel prettier with it.

My own personal take is that I don't like to wear it and I feel lighter and better when I don't wear it. I do wear some of it when I have to (to work and for weddings, big epic nights out and stuff) but I usually can't wait to wash my face.
Usually I just have a little eyeliner maybe, and that's it.

I don't like wearing nail polish on my fingers.

Maybe I'm the only girl who feels that way?

Nope. I'm a moisturizer and chapstick girl. The only "regular time" I wear makeup is BB cream or a little bit of concealer when I need it. Other than that I only wear makeup when I'm dressed up to go somewhere, which actually doesn't happen much since I work so much. So really, it's more like when I have an interview or meeting with an official that I'd put in the effort.

I LOVE makeup! If I'm feeling blah all I need to do is put some makeup on and I feel refreshed and more outgoing. If it makes me feel great then why not?

I see NO problem with women going natural and completely makeup free.

Me personally -- I have worn makeup every day (seriously) since I was 8-9 years old. Even in middle school I was applying foundation, powder, eye shadow, mascara, eyeliner, and lip gloss or lipstick every morning of life. Including weekends.

However, as you may be able to tell from my pic I am not a super duper femme makeup diva type...quite the opposite. I am pretty low key and don't even consider myself to be high maintenance.

In the past year with my recent weight loss I've noticed less issues with uneven skin tone and redness, which is nice. But I still feel naked without makeup. I have friends and family who don't even think I WEAR makeup. One of my best friends who has known me since we were in our teens (now 37) thought I just wore eyeliner & eye shadow.

One thing for me is that minus lip gloss or balm or lipstick...I do not reapply throughout the day. For example, in my profile pic I'd spent about 10 hours traveling, going to flea markets and antique malls, walking, etc. Probably a lot of my makeup had worn off, and that's fine with me.

Nail polish is another issue. I MUST have polish on my toes, I just feel prettier that way for whatever reason. But my nails are bare much of the time because I paint them and I'm too OCD to handle even a tiny bit of chipping, flaking, etc. And too cheap to have them professionally done...so there you go. I remove it after as little as 15 min (if it smudges that quickly) or 3 days MAX.

I wear a little eye liner and mascara most days. Lip gloss sometimes too. That's all that goes on my face. My nails and toes ALWAYS have to be painted. It makes me feel girly and pretty.

I like it when I'm going out, but not when I have just worked out.

I love make-up. I've worn it most of my life. I honestly look sickly without it. Dark circles under my eyes and pretty blotchy skin from sun worshiping as a teen. I wear concealer and a light foundation. Normally, I will line my eyes and use mascara. I try not to wear too much, My profile pic is wearing the MOST I ever wear. I never wear lipstick. I find that no matter what color I choose, I always look too made up with lipstick. Chapstick is ok.
