For me - I feel pretty when I have it on. I am in my mid 30's and now it has become something that is needed.
The foundation evens out the skin tone - the eyeliner opens up my eyes, as well as mascara and the powder makes me look less shiny!
I used to only wear makeup to cover up my acne, which is still here. Then one day, I thought, maybe the makeup is what makes my acne so bad. I stopped. It's starting to diminish, but is still there. God I hate acne. Anyway, I used a little eyeliner ALWAYS becuase it opens up my eyes. i'm terrified of mascara and all my friends make fun of me for it.
Make up makes u feel more confident, theres not doubt about tht. Its so fun as well, but wen u find it a drag u put on your face you need to think is it worth the hassle
I cudnt live without make up, especially eyeliner and mascara.
for me makeup is an art. someday id love to be a makeup artist or aesthetician. when i dont put on my makeup, its like i feel naked. at the very very least i try to wear eyeliner daily(only b/c i have very slanted eyes and they look beady w/o eyeliner) otherwise, i rarely wear foundation b/c my skn is fairly acne free and i dont use powder unless its bronzer. eye makeup is usually the only place i apply b.c as i mentioned before, my eyes are really beady lol. im more insecure when i dont wear makeup. i guess thats why ii wear makeup
Why can't you leave in the morning without makeup?
I personally can't go out without makeup although I don't absolutely need it.
Just share your reasons. It would be interesting... Thanks
I used to wear make up when I was younger to look glamorous and unfortunately to try to hide my acne ( all I really did was make the acne worse!) Up in till a few years or so a go I wore it 'cause I just thought it made me look better and more put together. Now I rarely wear make-up at all because I can't wear it at work. I just got use to not wearing it. Hey and men still flirt with me! Of course I‘m still wearing make-up when I go on dates, I need all the help I can get.
I wear make up for going out. It's part of te ritual for getting me set up for a good evening, I also apply it as part of a bonding social thing with my flatmates/ friends. It's not so much about changing appearance as a kinda group grooming thing - does that make sense?
Other than that I can take it or leave it depending on how I feel. Although if I'm feeling punky that day the eyeliner does have a tendancy to come out.
The thing for me though is I have a tendancy to feel less confident in makeup than without. As if by making an effort I am setting myself to be judged by people's standard of beautiful - without it I can always use the excuse I just don't care. Hmm I know I'm not alone with this but I don't know how prevelant it is.
