make-up....really, what is the big deal?

Well, me personally. I Think girls are much much nicer looking when they are not wearing make up. I really do find the natural glow very attractive. But I know many many girls, who can`t even leave the house in the morning till they have layered up, because they think they are ugly or something. To be honest I am as confused as you. But don`t worry, I won`t be applying any concealer to my face any time soon. Cheers.

Wearing makeup to me is like deciding to dress up. As you get older, age spots start to pop up. At one point I had a really dark spot over my right eyebrow. Makeup really didn't cover it and I started combing my hair over it. Finally I found out that it showed my liver was underactive. I had some lemon water every morning with a bit of cayenne pepper added to it. Within six months the spot was gone and has not returned.

I like to wear makeup but it must be in a way that will enhance my coloring and features (maybe like my eyes). It must be done subtly so that when I walk in a room, someone doesn't look and think, "Wow who fell in the bucket of paint?"

Also, when I wear makeup, I try to wear a brand that is as natural as possible. My favorite is Bare Minerals. It is a little more pricey but it really makes my skin look healthy. As for concealer, that is used specifically on something like a zit or a scar or in my case some dark spots. Most concealers look cakey and uglier than if you just skipped it. The Bare Minerals brand has a terrific concealer that is unnoticeable when used.

If you have never worn make up, I would suggest you try to find a store that sells something like Bare Minerals and ask it someone would give you a free make up demonstration. You may change your mind after doing something like this. It is fun and free or should be. The only other thing to watch is that someone picks out the colors that are right for you. So many times people try to get me to try reds with an orange hue. My face looks terrible with those shades. For some reason the reds with a purple hue does the trick for me.

On most days I don't wear makeup. I do try to keep my face clean and moisturized. At fifty-five years old that has paid off as I have very few wrinkles or sagging. Sometimes just for fun I enjoy giving myself a nice facial at home. Hmmmmm, that would be fun to do right about now!

i love make up! i dont go anywhere without my make up...i always wear mascara, blush, and foundation, either powder or liquid. but when i really get ready to go out i wear eyeliner and eyeshadow and stuff. i like the way i look in pictures, and i dont put too much on to where it looks like its caked on. i dont like putting too much on like a clown either...it just depends on your face structure and stuff...im thinkin since youre so young you dont know yet...but i could be wrong...i just love it and everyone i know does too...

Most women wear make-up to enhance their facial features. I do not wear make-up everyday, but on days that I'm in the mood to wear 'em, I make sure that my stands out. Some women wear make-up because they want to look prettier, which actually works.

Me i am also wearing make up when i go around or when i hang out with my friends. I wear make up in some important occasions. For me theres nothing wrong in putting make up. It doesn't mean that when you are putting make up, you are ugly or hiding something in your face. Maybe for other women they use it to hide their blemishes in their face but using of make up makes more a women to look attractive. It is a part of growing up. For me being natural is better but sometimes you need to groom yourself to get another look. Putting of make up is fun because you are trying to get different look.

hi jeneias,
you are right,some people,not just girls boys too,don't want others to see the scars or something else on their face.they think that it will discourage them.so they use a lot of make ups,and after they take the make off,they start to look really really ugly without it,thats the matter why most of the celebrities always wear a makeup even if they are just going out.i am the sort of person like you,i don't want some silly make ups to hide my real face,i just like my face the way it is.but i do wash my face twice or thrice a day as i have oily skin.

Ok, my opinion to this, is every one suit yourself... I have worn makeupp everyday since I was 9. Its not that I am insecure or anything, It just makes me feel so much better about myself. Plus I like to try out different colors without makin myself look like a hoe. Honestly, There are a ton of dirrerent reasons girls wear it, weather it is skin issues, creativity, just makes u feel pretty, or even like u said, insecurities. But I am not saying u should wear it. If u feel pretty the way u are and have that confedence, then go you.. Because confedence is really what its all about, and if u have that without spendin a ton of money, then great!

love a woman born on the make-up, huh, but we can not lie, know.

make-up enhances people's looks. well, for me i simple adore people who look good without any make-up. the more natural the better. right?
