Do you put make up on?

[vicky_vicky]

I was wondering how many of you wear your make up on a daily basis, I love doing my make up but I am limiting to eye shadow, black kohl, black mascara, cheek blush and a nice lipgloss, these things I manage them in 5-10 minutes.
But when I get out I am really good! I spent half an hour on make up.

[sweetvenus]

For work, I usually wear foundation, concealer, eyebrow pencil, eyeliner, lipgloss, which takes me about 10 minutes. When going out, I usually add eye shadow and sometimes blush and lipstick. I wear mascara only on special occasions because my lashes are really long naturally and mascara usually makes them look fake.

Since I work from home I only wear makeup when I go out, or I feel like making myself feel pretty.

When I do wear it, I usually only use power, eyeliner, shadow and lip gloss, sometimes lip liner too.

I very seldom wear makeup, unless we are going out.

ok, sorry :)

[mitch]

Bit of powder for work. Lipstick if We go out because there's bound to be photos taken. And i look dead in photos without Lippy. :bbeek:

[saltyveruca]

Depends on whether or not I'm leaving the house. :D

[katrina7875]

I love makeup! I always wear foundation, eye shadow, and lipstick. If I am not feeling lazy I'll wear eyeliner and mascara.

[BarceloMayaPalaceBride]

I work at a real estate office and have to get all "done up" every day. I can take a shower, dry/straighten my hair and do full make-up in 1 hour. If I don't straighten the hair and just leave it curly, I can be completely ready in 20 mins.

[acidcookie]

Yes, always. Foundation, blush, eyebrows, and mascara, everyday. And when I go out some eyeliner and some highlighting shadow.

[candars]

I put foundation, concealer, and mascara on every day. Although I have a ton of eyeshadows that I LOVE, I just never wake up early enough to put it on before work.

[bichonlvr]

Yes, I wear make-up daily!!!!

[Whitewater]

I rarely wear makeup. It's just not that important to me, and I have always felt that if the people I hang out with can't deal with seeing the real me, then they aren't worth being my friends.

I have no issues with people seeing my 'real' face. I don't like to hide, and make-up, for me, has until recently always felt like I was trying to present a false face to the world -- literally -- by making me look like somebody I'm not.

My looks change dramatically when I wear makeup and that's why I feel like I'm lying about who I am when I wear it. It's really wierd. It's like I become somebody else!

Anyway, makeup is such a bother to put on . . . .

If I feel like I need to wear it, like for a formal event where going bare-faced just isn't an option, I'll wear a little bit of foundation to even out my freckles, some eye shadow (highlighter and regular), brown mascara because black is too severe, some blush, lipstick, and powder. Oh yeah, and I put some brown eyeliner in my eyebrows, because my eyebrows are very blonde and I tend to look like Whoopi Goldberg unless I darken them some.

Then I do my hair. And all of this takes 45 minutes! I have always envied the women that can do their entire look in 15-20 minutes.

For the wedding I don't know what I'm going to do. On the one hand, I don't want to do my own makeup and hair (because I do want to do something different that doesn't resemble everyday), but on the other hand, I don't think I have enough money to pay to have it done. We'll see.

Anyway, I think I've worn makeup about 6 times in the last year, so yeah, "rarely" is where I'm at.

I also rarely wear make-up. I really don't even know how to put it on. For the wedding I'm getting my hair/makeup done at a local salon that's been cutting my hair for years. I have a "trial run" appointment this week and am already a little concerned that they'll want to go crazy with the make-up. Plus eye makeup and my contacts...not sure how well they will get along.

[acidcookie]

No worries, I wear contacts (and as of today even a toric lens in my right eye, weird!) and I've never had a problem with eye make-up, even liner and shadow.

Overall I don't think makeup is just about hiding your true self and I don't think that it needs to be either "I need it" or "I refuse to wear it."

To me makeup is just an enhancement. If I can put on mascara and show off my long lashes or look awake and fresh thanks to blush, why not? It makes me look polished.

[MrsKittyManes]

I really only wear makeup when I'm goin out and sometimes not even then. Hair and makeup when I go out takes less then 15-20 minutes total

[caligal85]

I hate taking the time out to put anything on. I'm pretty sure makeup doesn't even serve a purpose.

[gwenshack]

I'm just lazy. And I also sweat as a profession - sweat and makeup just mix to create blackheads and acne.

I do enjoy the makeup, but even when I'm not working it it just seems like too much work. So I only wear it when we go somewhere OUT. Not supermarket out, but dinner and a bar out. :)

[june0609]

I don't ever wear makeup.
The only times I have were at my sisters wedding, my high school chior concerts, and at dances that I went to.
I really hate wearing it.

[rainbowtreat]

I used to wear it all the time. Did my hair and nails to. Now I dond't do anything. Since having the my last child I don't do much of anything for myself. I like to get all dolled up and go out but we never go anywhere. I actualy did my make up the other day just to see what it would look like because it had been so long. When i was still working I fixed my hair but then that has got to the point of just pulling the front back in a a hair clip or putting it all up. So now that I work at home it is easier fo rme to shower at night when DH is home to watch my climbing one year so I don't have to shower with him lol. If I got showers in the morning I could mouse my hair and fix it nice.

My days are hair up in a pony tail, no make up and no nails. ( used to do my own fake ones ). So I am a sight to see I am sure lol.

DO I like to wear make up? Yeah I would love to. But no need for it and my face is very oily. No matter what I do. And hour after washing my face it is already oily. SO make up makes it worse

[BlueBetsy]

I do my makeup everyday for work, but I give my skin a break during weekends and just wear moisturizer. I'll wear makeup on weekends if we go out to dinner or an event.

[Scrwballsgrl]

I wear liquid foundation everyday to even out my complexion (roseaca is a b*tch) and eye shadow,mascara & chapstick with SPF.

[FFC]

Good lord, I'd love to wear makeup regularly, but it makes my eyes burn and makes me break out... I probably apply makeup about 15 times a year, unless I go on a spree and wear it every day for a week to work :D

[NurseLau84]

Very little unless it's a special occasion. For everyday I usually just put on some of my Lancome tinted moisturizer, mascara and lipgloss. For special occasions and holidays I use my Chanel and Bobbi Brown products.

[brendalin]

I work in a Wellness Center, so for me to take time to put on full blown make-up is just silly. I usually apply mascara because without it I look tired. Other then that, I will wear it when we are going out. Mascara, a bronzer, eyeshadow, and eye liner. It is so natural though that you can't really tell that I have it all on.... just enhances me features. and makes me feel so PRETTY! :chimp:

[RosieAngel]

If I have a special occasion like a dinner date at an upscale restaurant, a holiday party, etc. I'll put a little on, but on a daily basis, I just wear chapstick with SPF and sun-screen to protect my skin from the sun.

[Danielle9608]

I used to never wear makeup unless it was a special occasion. However for the past couple of weeks I have been wearing some powder and mascara to work because I got a new hair cut that requires me to blow dry and straighten my hair, so I figured since I am up and already spending extra time on grooming I might as well put on some makeup too. However today I was tired and lazy today so I didn't bother.

[amunet]

The only thing I put on daily is Clinque Moisturizer and sometimes some mineral powder if I feel like it. I am a huge lip gloss girl though.

Other than that about once every other week or so I'll take the time to put on some makeup, but only like mascara and eyeshadow.

[Jacobs_Girl]

I wear it everyday since I work in an office and have to look presentable. I usually just wear my bare essentials powder foundation and lip gloss. Sometimes eye liner, it depends on how late I am running for work LOL

[FFC]

RevMatty! Calling Matty!! Just wondering what your take is on this :rofl:

[arlene]

RevMatty! Calling Matty!! Just wondering what your take is on this :rofl:
Good one......


But...I usually wear makeup once in a while.....just lip gloss at work.

[Hippolyta]

I don't put makeup on everyday. My skin is very sensitive, and it irritate me.

[MBS353]

Have only ever worn make-up once - to my senior prom. Not that I have anything against it, just no time to fuss.

[MrsBacon_092708]

I love wearing make up. It makes me feel like a girl to get all made up. I work in a hot factory where we work out butts off and sweat a lot all the while wearing jeans, work shirts with our names (eww), arm guards, gloves, safety glasses, ear protection, and steel toe boots. So on the rare occasion that I get to put make up on, you bet your bottom dollar I will. I love being a girl. Even though I don't get to do it very often.

[TeacherSonja]

I love wearing make-up although I always tend to keep it simple and look natural. I use foundation, eyeshadow (not always), black mascara and lip gloss. For a more dramatic look I use a black eyeliner. I never use lipstick - lip gloss only.

[Nekochanpurr]

To me, make up is a waste of time and cash.

[MrsDM]

Being a Mary Kay consultant, I love make up! But, I only wear mascara and eyeliner everyday, maybe a bit of lipstick/gloss if I am meeting with a client, or going into a meeting. If we are going out at night, I will put on full make up.

[Century Guy]

I...do not wear makeup. ;)

[FFC]

I...do not wear makeup. ;)


You sure about that? You seem a little.....doubtful? :rofl: :) ;)

[Century Guy]

*chuckles* Quite positive.

Well...actually, I have to amend that now that I think about it a bit more.

When I do a stage performance, I DO wear stage makeup.

Go...figure.

Beats me why guys can't wear makeup, I mean, street makeup, like girls do.

After all, girls wear suits with button-down shirts and slacks, jeans and flannel, and so on, why can't guys horn in on this whole 'Let's make ourselves look a little better' concept?

Having been in theatre for so long, I can positively state that most guys look MUCH better with foundation and some eyeliner, to make their eyes stand out a little.

Then again, I'm wierd. I mean, I think guys ought to be able to wear skirts, socially, and I *also* think that if men get to go topless, that women ought to go topless. A nipple is a nipple is a nipple!!! Or, that if women can't go topless, then neither should men. Equality cuts both ways.
