Do you wear make-up?
I'm curious?
Do you wear make-up to work? anytime you go out? on special occasions? never? always?
Re: Do you wear make-up?
I rarely wear make-up.
I wear it maybe once a month to work depending on how much time I have before I have to leave and my mood. I'd take 10 min of sleep over 10 min of make-up any day (for work at least).
When DH and I go out for special occasions or a date night, I usually put it on. Unless I wear eye make-up, I don't look much different with it on/off. I love how my eyes look with make-up, but it's not worth all the effort.
EDIT: When I just do "my face is red today" make-up, I take less than 5 minutes. I put on moisterizer and foundation, maybe blush depending on the redness.
When I do "we're going out" make-up, it takes about 10-15 minutes, depending on if I play with colors or do the norm. I have tons of eye make-up and play with a bunch of different looks.
Due to the redness on my cheeks, I typically do. In the summertime, I will go w/out eyeliner, but I will almost always do mascara (waterproof). I always wear it to work (with exception of when I get poison ivy).
DH likes the natural look, but knows I'm particular about the redness. Plus, there's a sunscreen in the foundation, etc...
Everyday. It's funny, I'm actually a low maitenence person in general, but I do wear a decent amount of make-up everyday. I wear foundation, cover-up, eye shadow, eye-liner, and blush. It takes me less than 10 minutes to do my face and then maybe only 5 - 10 to do my hair so I don't really mind. Sometimes on the weekends, I'll skip the liner. In the summer, occasionally skip almost everything but I like it. I don't usually have to touch up during the day so it's not a bother.
(PSA: Urban decay eye liner is da bomb. I put it on in the morning and it barely smudges or fades. I love it.)
The only make up I wear to work is foundation and mascara because normally I just sweat it off anyhow. I love working with men. lol
Whenever I go out and about and tend to spruce it up a bit more with the eye shadow, liner, blush, etc.
I wear make up to work. Sometimes I keep it simple on Casual Fridays or on weekends. I really go all out for dress-up occasions or if my skin is looking bad.
I like to have at least eyebrows and mascara on to run a quick errand so I don't look so washed out. And lately I've been adding Benefit That Gal primer/brightener or Dr. Feelgood to that to mattify my shiny skin.
I wear make-up during the week but unless I have something going on during the weekend, I skip it and let my skin breathe a bit.
I do have TONS of makeup and play with it a lot when I do wear it. Still doesnt take me long though.
I got DH hooked on this stuff (shhhh don't tell). He has the oiliest skin and this makes such a difference!
I wear makeup everyday. I am old. Even if it is a bumming around the house day I at least have on mascara and blush/bronzer (Benefit Dallas, yep, another Benefit girl!). I am a white mexican and need all the color I can get otherwise I am PASTY. For everyday, I wear pretty much everything, and for going out, I still do everything, but glam it up, with darker colors and heavier eyeliner. I love makeup.
Monday through Thursday: I do studio fix/powder, mascara, and lip gloss.**On days when I have extra time or feel like it, I add some eye liner and neutral eye-shadows.
Fridays (4-hr casual workday)/Saturdays/Sundays- Little to no make-up for running errands, but if I am doing something (meeting friends, dinner, etc.) then I like to do a "full face" and make an attempt to look cute
It sounds like I need to try this oily skin product you gals are raving about because my skin is on the oilier side
I wear make up to work every day.
I only wear MAC. I wear powder, blush, eyeshadow and mascara.
When I want to look more finished, then I bust out the foundation and concealer and eyeliner and the whole bit.
I wear a little make-up to work.
I usually wear it if I'm going out of the house but it doesn't bother me if I don't have it on. However, if I'm going to meet friends for a night out then I'll definitely put it on. I love getting all dressed up for a big night out.
Most days I wear make-up to work. That involved mineral powder, bronzer, blush, eye shadow, eye liner, and mascara.
When I'm not gonig to work I atleast always wear eyeliner, eye shadow, and mascara because I'm so pale I feel washed out when I don't.
I wear make up every day, unless I am not laving the house. I have albino white lashes and eyebrows, so I tend to look really Blah with out it.
I wear foundation/concealer, mascara, eyebrow powder, blush and lip gloss everyday, and more than not eyeliner and eyeshadow for work. I love MAC, benefit, and clinique. I am slo always buying new stuff and trying different things out.
I pretty much always wear make-up, just depends on where I am going. On weekends just running errands I only wear mascara and some lipgloss. To work I wear mascara, blush, eye liner, and lip gloss. Everything else is somewhere in between.
If I am going out somewhere fancy I will really do up my eyes with dark shadow and eye liner.
I do mineral powder and mascara as a bare minimum daily, but I didn't start doing that until I was about 25. . . For work, I add eyes, blush, and sometimes lip gloss, more for a night out, but I never go super heavy.
Unless I'm going to the gym, or for a run or bike ride, I don't leave the house without it. And it drives me nuts when I see girls in the gym with a face full of makeup. Even if you came straight from work, you could pack those disposable makeup remover things. . .
OMG, that drives me NUTS too!!! You're working out, sweaty, and gorss, why the hell do you have on make-up?!?!?
Exactly! And really, many of them are not working out very hard. . . probably to keep their makeup looking good!
