Can you go out without makeup?

I have to wear concealor and gloss at least. Otherwise, I can pull my hair into a scrunchie and head out.

How about you?

I have to at least wear chapstick before I head out. Some days I feel like putting on lipstick..but if I'm having an acne day I have to dab on some concealer and powder.

I always wear make-up to work. And I usually wear make-up if I'm going out. The only time I don't wear make-up is when I'm spending the day at home. Then I give my skin a break and moisturize or add a dab of Clearasil if needed.

Macara is the one thing I never do without even on the days at home. I also like to put my hair in a bun on the days at home and give the curling iron a rest.

I only wear makeup if we are going out on a *date* or when we go to church. I'm so much more comfortable not wearing it, not to mention I save a lot of money!

OOOOO call me Vain...call me full of myself...Ive heard it all.....I cannot go to the MAILBOX...without my makeup and DEFINATELY Lipstick on!! I swear its true...I am not dressed and I cannot function without my face.....I have a HUGE lipstick collection...and If I am having a bad day...noo matter how broke I am...I need a new lipstick

Im sure this is probably some sort of mental affliction and could be treated with lots of therapy and maybe some meds....but until that...Ill just be a DIVA!!

Sometimes I go with it sometimes I go without it.I guess it just has to do with time and how the kids are behaving at the time,but around the house hardly ever,unless we have company,but then sometimes I don't wear makeup when we go over to someones house.Weird huh

I seem to be wearing less and less makeup these days!! I used to wear it all the time and now I just put my sunglasses on if I have to go out, like to drop off or pickup the kids from school. If we have somewhere to go I do put makeup on.

I usually wear it when I go out even to the store but hardly ever at home

Depends on the mood. I always wear it to work but its real optional all the other time. I don't wear it if I can stay home that day. I usually wear the full routine foundation, blush, lipstick, mascara and eye liner to work. I really do look like 2 different people with it on and with it off.

I rarely wear makeup. If dh and I are going out of if I need a pick me up I will put on makeup, but that is about it. I do wear chapstick every day does that count? I have been addicted to this kind called "Natural Ice medicated lipbalm" for 10 years and am always applying it.

**Jerseygirl** · 03-20-2002, 09:22 PM

It really depends on my mood. In high school and college I wouldn't leave the house without pancake make up and bright red lipstick. Now I wear it if we are going out at night, but during the day I basically do mascara, a smudge of a light beige shadow and some lipstick. Somedays I don't even go beyond mascara.

Can I count my anti-wrinkle cream as makeup??

**babynurse** · 03-21-2002, 09:11 PM

Hmmm, I think I have a vicious cycle...I wear makeup because I have been having a lot of breakouts lately...causing breakouts...causing me to wear makeup to cover it up! I am almost 27 years old and have worse acne than when I was in my teens! It's in the weirdest place too, right between my eyebrows, LOL! Seriously frustrating though, because I would rather not wear makeup everyday and never used to, but now I am embarassed to go out without any.

**wahida1** · 03-21-2002, 09:21 PM

I love make up so much ...lol, I can seriously say that i have a good collection [ most of it bought using a coupon or B1G1 free ]
- can you tell that am trying to justify having all that makeup

Anyways, I wear makeup when I go out, it makes me feel better for some reason, but when am at home I just give my face a break unless we are having company.
