Default Makeup! Do you indulge?

How many of you out there like to play with Makeup? I love too myself, espically eye color. I have a problem wearing makeup though. Very sensative skin, anything beyond eye stuff and lipstick and I end up with upset skin *bleh* Oh well :)

I LOVE makeup! :P

MAC, Clinique', Elizabeth Arden & Ben Nye are my very good friends!

Was there ever any doubt???


Namaste',

I would love to experiment with it, but I feel totally clumsy and uneducated about make-up. It seems just a little harder than just putting on those HH shoes ...

No. Far too fussy and tedious to put on and take off. I might wear nail varnish occasionally.

Obviously, I wear some sort of make up every day. Not much, just enough to freshen the face and make the lashes look nice.

But then, that's a given, and accepted by society for women.

I do feel a little naked without makeup, of course.

My wife wears makeup to work most days or if we're going out, but it's pretty subtle, much as Laurie described.

Other than once or twice for Hallowe'en, I don't!

Only wear it if I'm trying to impress for whatever reason.

My Grandad always says that if you need make-up to make yourself look pretty then you must be a very ugly person. I don't consider myself pretty in the slightest, but I do tend to agree with him. If someone likes you because they think you're pretty (and, realistically, looks are what attracts you to a person even if in the long run personality is much more important) they're not gonna think a lot of you when the make-up comes off.

I also strongly dislike it when make-up is overdone, it makes you look worse than if you'd gone out with no make-up on... and I guess I'm a little nervous of making myself look like this!

Personally don't wear any makeup, Mrs shyguy wears an eyeliner daily and only wears lipstick etc. if we're going out somewhere. I love her more for the lack of makeup as I wake up next to the same face in the morning as when I went to bed the night before.
I have seen some women who look great in the evening, but if you see them first thing they look terrible without the "face" on.

Just my 2 cents

I'm with Shyguy on this one. I've never seen Mrs. F with any make up on, so there's no surprises. But she's lucky, she doesn't need it. Horses for courses. I don't wear any either, but I'm not prepared to offer an opinion as to whether I need any.
