Why do women wear makeup?

Right!! Men don't even know what natural is. I had on a full-face of makeup foundation and all and I listened to my male friend go on and on about how he was so glad I didn't have makeup on the other day!! The only thing that I was missing literally was colored lipstick (opted for nude) and eyeshadow (just used concealer to highlight my brow line and eye lid. I had even filled in my brows with a little powder. He almost hit the floor when I had him touch my face and he rubbed a little foundation off.

We so stupid. Either way is fine. When you have make up on your on the prowl, grrrr lioness. When you don't have the makeup on its kitten time, meow.

So true. I have two makeup looks--natural w/less eye makeup or a lot of eye makeup. Even the "natural" is WITH makeup. My mom was a southern belle and always went out of the house with makeup and hair done. I do as well...I feel more polished and have more confidence. I also wear it because I enjoy makeup lol. I like finding new products. That being said, I've always worn more neutral colors.

Whether you wear make up or not, the end result should be YOU feeling confident.

j/k - I wish I could look like Angelina with makeup My glasses make any eye makeup magnified and just looks fake to me.

FUNNIEST THING EVAR!!!!!

I dont wear too much make up but i dont like my skin and i have rosey checks! Also eyes look better with mascara!

me on holiday - no make up - stupid face


me with make up a few days ago


Sorry for massivee pictures!

Most days I wear no makeup at all, nor do I use any kind of skincare unless my skin is screaming for it. That line the lady in the beauty shop gave me about how everyone's skin need moisturiser, every day? Ox feces.

When I do wear makeup, it's for one of two reasons:

1) My face has the occasional day where it's just drained of colour. I don't know why, but on some days I'm just extra super pale. The visible veins in my face double, the circles under my eyes become obvious, and my lips become as pale as my skin and just vanish. Being a natural blonde does nothing to improve this, either; I look like a ghost. Putting on a little something to bring some colour back means I don't do a doubletake when I see myself in the mirror, and people don't give me worried looks on the bus.

2) Colour, colour, COLOUR! I crave colour! I want to make something pretty and weird and wonderful! I want to paint giant butterflies around my eyes! I want bright blue lips! I want to make strange art and today makeup is my medium of choice! The makeup I do on days like this is obviously not "wearable", and would only be acceptable in night clubs or fancy dress parties, neither of which I go to. Unless the makeup is extreme, I will probably wear it outside, anyway. Even if it's the middle of the day.

My nails get occasion 2 far more often than my face. Doing fancy nails is far more time-consuming than painting my face, but it lasts longer, and random strangers are less inclined to give me their unasked-for opinion about nails. Ideally these strangers would keep all their tut-tutting to themselves, but as long as they won't, I have to limit the amount to what I can handle without becoming homicidal.

i do so i don't look like a man.

I tend to wear makeup that's more natural looking. My husband likes me with or without. If I have a nice tan on my face then I only wear eye makeup to work otherwise I put on foundation as well if I'm not as tan.

Make-up is just fun. I like to put it on when going out with a group because it's fun to get read as a group, when I'm getting ready alone I'm less likely to doll up.

I love Mac makeup. I find cheaper ones don't look good, but once I put my MAC on I feel like a different person. I just feel better in myself, its not for anyone elses sake. Some people are saying its because of other women, that's not true at all for me. I get comments ' are you ok?'. 'Are you tired?' Without it, so I must look better with it! X
