how important is wearing make-up?

I try to wear makeup everyday or at least whenever I leave the house. It is a ritual with me to take a shower and then put on makeup. I can't NOT take a shower and put on makeup they just go together. So if I take a shower at night I put on full makeup before I go to bed. I try to wait till the mornings though.

I really dont know how important this it could be to other peoples lives cos i myself dont wear make up on daily basis maybe on some important occasion, i just look so different with make up, my hubby prefer me not to have make up as well. I remember having a proper make up was during my wedding a year ago.

I'm guilty for feeling the need to cover myself in makeup. I started wearing makeup at a bit of a young age..(probably like 14 or so) and now I feel so uncomfortable with it on. I can relate to a previous poster who said they put it on even after having a shower..I'm the same way. I hate letting anyone see me without makeup!! I wish I cared less..

Personally I do not alot of make up on women. I like to see the real person not a made up doll. Unfortunatly people have placed too high a priority on looks.

Depends on the person but i put proper makeup only occasionally. Otherwise its just basic stuff like eyeliner n powder!! Nothin serious.

I prefer women who does not wear make-up at all. Well maybe some few light stuffs will be ok. I like the natural look of a woman better.

I kind of think it's a waste of time, & find it a turn-off when she's got enough make-up on that she looks like a monster. I am always tempted to tell 'em it's not Halloween, or to ask them, "why are you in that disguise?"

make up, I alsohate as it hides your originallity
