    breaks my heart to hear that men don't like perfect red lipstick... I like my lips and I would SO wear true red like Gwen Stefani, but hubby HATES the look, so I never do. I thought it was just him...



    MY HUBBY HATES RED LIPS TOO :( BUT I DO IT ANYWAY!! AHAHAHAH

    very good article! thanks for the read! my friend does makeup and shes always begging me to do mine. i let her once, and she did the "smoky" look, and it looked like someone punched me in both my eyes. im just not a big make up person. never have been. and the only thing going on my lips is some carmex!
    I totally get that. I am not a big makeup person. I do my liiner[super thin] mascara and chapstick. nothing else.

    I LOVE makeup! For me it's an artistic expression. I used to be a cosmetologist and have taken professional and photography makeup courses. I usually go for a 30's, 40's, or 50's movie star look with a little geisha thrown in. It's all about personal style. The males in my life have always loved it. But I do go for a certain subset, so that probably has something to do with it. I do have good skin so I never wear foundation, just powder. I am very pale, but I love my paleness. I personally find bronzer to be a little silly and fake looking, but that's just me. I have my own personal style and I am confortable in my own skin.

    My look has drastically changed over the years. I used to be gothic so I had jet black hair with eyebrows to match, very heavy and dark eyeshadow (with Egyptian-style eyeliner), heavy liquid foundation, dark lipstick, and black painted fingernails.

    My hair is now auburn, as well as my eyebrows (I use a Bare Escentuals eyebrow kit to color them in....I stopped using a pencil about a year ago....my eyebrows are still a work in progress since I feel like I can never get them right), I use waaaaay less eyeliner and load up on the mascara to make my eyes look bigger. I still like to do a "smoky" eye look, but recently decided only to do that on my weekends and stick with only a sheer light MAC color on my work days. As for foundation, I use mineral powder only now and never do liquid. I also don't paint my fingernails anymore and go for a french manicure once in a while. I'm starting to learn that less is more...lol :)

    I do find it funny when men say they prefer women to be naturally beautiful. Well..... DUR.


    My husband isn't that into red lipstick either, and my family all say it makes me look like a vampire.

    I like to wear makeup for a special night out occcasionally. I put foundation on for my brother's wedding a few months ago and I felt like my skin was suffocating! and it made me break out!!!! My Mom will not answer the door without her"face" on. Maybe that's why I am more relaxed about it. All that time waiting around for her to fix her face. She is still that way. It's funny.

    But really, who doesn't love stripper glitter? If' I'm expected to put cash in your undies, I prefer a little sparkle, not the whole tragedy at kindergarten mess.

    I totally agree with all of those. My pet hate is plucked eyebrows that are drawn back on. It looks daft. And I hate foundation.

    I hate drawn on eyebrows. And red lipstick. So ugly to me.

    I love my red lipstick.

    I rarely wear make up but when I do, I make sure it's something I like and my hubby doesn't think looks silly. If he likes it, no one else matters.
