xPink.Pixel.Princessx 0 Posted March 6, 2010 I was just shaping my eyebrows in the mirror and thought 'OMG i look so ugly without makeup on'(iv just came out the shower)I couldnt never imagine if all of a sudden makeup vanished and there was no more...Id totally die.Makes me cringe even thinking about it I have to always wear makeup. Even if i was only going to the shops which is like 1 minute away from me.My daily routine is: Get up, shower 1hour,makeup 2 and half hours, hair 2 hours, dressed up to 1 and half hours(change my clothes about 3 times before i feel right)nails...purfume to match my feeling.....coffee..THEN i can go out...makeup routine consists of Foundation...then powder foundation over the top...Then blusher...then i shape my eyebrows properly...Then i put eyeshaddow on...Then fake lashes...then mascara(atleast 3 layers of mascara)...then touch my eyeshaddow up lol....eyeliner...Then lipgloss =/...I always take my handbag full of makeup with me everywhere for when i need to fix my makeup.You coud say im a makeup freak!...but i love it.What do you think of makeup? Which do you think is better....Natural beauty or fakery.As for me....100% fakery is my life lol. :pinkjello: :pinkjello: :pinkjello: :pinkjello: :pinkjello: :pinkjello: :pinkjello: :pinkjello: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tiddly Winks 0 Posted March 6, 2010 I never wear makeup unless I'm performing or going out to the theatre or attending a special party. Generally, make up makes me break out, and so whatever I may use for the performance or going out has to be ecological and good for the skin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lea75 0 Posted March 6, 2010 hun its not the make up that makes you a beautiful person...its who you are!I've seen pics of you and there is no way you could look ugly, even eithout make up!Personally I dont wear make up any more...I used to always wear at least mascara and eyeliner, but cant even be bothered with that anymore Plus I have psoriasis, so make up is not good for my skin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

myladyyawo 0 Posted March 6, 2010 I totally agree with Lea sweetie, there is no way no make up make you look un pretty. You are gorgeous! I wear a light cover-up due to adult acne. Really embarrassing to say, I was my face 3 times a day, I don't touch my face a lot, and I have a really healthy diet but no matter what I use or do I still get break-outs. I also am addicted to eye liner. I don't wear a lot of it, but I like to do my make up more for fun and enjoyment that an utter need of necessity for it. I like feeling all dolled up, but natural just highlighting my favorite feature (my eyes). As hypocritical as this may sound though, I don't go out with out make-up it makes me feel to bland. To go to the store, I just wear eye liner, mascara, and lip gloss. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tiddly Winks 0 Posted March 6, 2010 I had people for much of my life telling me that I wasn't pretty without makeup, which after I became an adult, I thought that assertion was utter nonsense and my self esteem got better after I got away from such toxic people. I don't know if that's the case with you, I would most certainly hope not. Of course such words did make me grow up not wanting to support the cosmetic industry. I rebelled against the whole makeup thing and always affirmed that true beauty is manifest within. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gaiamaiden 0 Posted March 7, 2010 hun you dont need make up to look beautiful, as Lea rightly said, its whats on the inside that counts if you are beautiful person on the inside, you are on the outside I never used to bother with make up, i just thought it was a waste of time, the first time i wore make up properly was on my wedding day lol but i do use foundation on my skin when ive got spots lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That is so totally what I've been told for most of my life!!XD Especially that 'What kind of young adult are you who still don't wear makeup like all the other kids?' Yes, it does get to your self-esteem...glad you could get away from people like that.. Unlike me...XD And I totally don't even want to think about wearing make up. For one thing, I don't know how...and I feel it's such a waste of time (no offense here xPink.Pixel.Princessx..)...I get like to get dress and go out without a worry..the most I'd do is a lipgloss..XDThat's not to say I'm a natural beauty...I'm not at all and people tell me all the time..XD I just couldn't care enough...though it does hurt a bit...Anyways...No to makeup!XD But, it's okay to like doing it xPink.Pixel.Princessx...if u like it that is...

RocLibrarian 0 Posted March 7, 2010 I think it should be about what your motives are. Are you wearing make-up because it makes you feel happy? Maybe for you make-up is like jewelry or shoes -- you just feel more like yourself when you wear it. If you are wearing it for fear of being ugly, then maybe you should experiment with thinking about all the many ways you can be beautiful outside of just make-up. Personally, I wear a little make-up when I go to work or make a professional presentation. For me, wearing make-up feels grown-up and makes me feel more confident the same way wearing a blazer or a suit does. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

smorkle 0 Posted March 7, 2010 i wear "nature looking" makeup (i use mineral makeup) and everyone always says they can't tell i'm wearing any, but one time i went to work without it to pick something up and this girl came up to me and said, "OMG i can totally tell when your not wearing makeup now!" RUDENESS!!! she kept saying that i didn't look bad, just that she could tell the difference now. (omg! so rude)in any case, hun if you love wearing it and it makes you feel good, wear it!! that's what i say. and if you don't wear it and you look good, that's great too!more power to us girls! we should feel good about ourselves no matter what! with and without makeup...we rock!!
