Do you wear makeup?

[LyraVale]

I don't think this topic is any stupider than the rest of the topics we discuss on this forum. lol...I mean it's not like we're trying to figure out the meaning of life or cure cancer in the other threads.

Anyway, yes I wear makeup, when I'm in the mood and it can be really fun. Like putting on an outfit...for your face. You can change your whole face if you know what you're doing, and some days that's just what you need to get you going on your day.

Other times, actually most of the time, I don't wear anything but sunblock/tinted moisturizer, because I want to protect my skin, but IDC to paint my face otherwise. I feel fine with that. And sometimes I feel prettier that way...and I don't have to worry about touching my face and smearing makeup or something.

I like having the option to go whichever I feel like on any given day. Sometimes I get all dolled up, and then stay home and read or play video games. I see nothing wrong with that. Because it's what makes me happy in that moment.

Exactly! If it makes you happy, by all means.
Sometimes I feel uncomfortable without it, and there's nothing wrong with that.

I love wearing bright lipstick. I don't trust myself to apply eye makeup very accurately due to being blind in one eye. I've heard that it's possible to get good at it with lots of practice but idk, the idea of having to close my good eye to apply eye shadows blindly is off putting and I look like a clown when I've tried :c

Ah man.. I'm sorry to hear that, it sounds really tough! Keep trying though, I'm sure you'll get better!

I'm like that I wear it literally everyday. It's kinda like a ritual for me now. Sleep, wake-up, shower, put on makeup, eat, do stuffs, do other stuffs, eat again, take makeup off, go back to sleep. It's a cycle! XD But it's normal for me. I started wearing back in High School and now I don't go anywhere without it.
But I'm curious to know what could make you stop wearing it...?

Ahh, well I don't want to bring down the thread but, I have an eating disorder and depression - both of which cause significant disinterest in your appearance (people without ED's are often surprised to hear that), and also loss of interest in things you used to enjoy doing...

On a happier note, I have some reccs for people that wear mascara - always try to use cake mascara instead of the kind that comes in tubes, and try to get a bent brush (usually at 45 degrees) as well - they are such timesavers and apply way better than tube ones do!

Yes!! Lots of it. I just found Younique, and I'm loving having eyelashes for the first time EVER.

And I didn't know that, Shanice.

I rarely ever wear make-up, but when I do, it's usually eyeliner and mascara. I usually use the Miss Manga purple mascara, and the L'oreal superfine eyeliner... I dunno the exact name. I recommend both of them! I'd love to wear make-up more and buy some proper stuff, but I just can't afford it, and if I don't really need to wear it and I'm happy with how I look without it, then I don't mind!

 

[demoness]

I don't wear too much, but I do use eyeliner and some sort of gloss or something if nothing else more often than not. One day soon I'll sit down and really gather things to do something more once in a while.

 

[Ceri]

Not all of the time, but I do like the heavy black smokey eyeliner with embellishments, and dark red lipstick. Gothy, just the way I like it.

 

[oath2order]

The closest to make-up that I use is a facial scrub

 

[kitanii]

I don't even know how to apply eyeliner. Formal events just get foundation mascara and lip colour. I've been practicing eyeliner, but I'm usually too lazy to put any makeup on.

This is the best thread...I love how confessional it's gotten.

Apparently, you can learn about someone's life, by their relationship towards makeup.

 

[RebeccaShay]

Not a lot! I wear mascara and some light powder. I'm blessed with naturally clear skin so I don't need much besides that to feel comfortable

 

[crystalchild]

i always wear at least bb cream and mascara when im out.

Aw, you should wear less makeup. You're definitely caking on too much.

You really can. I figured a lot of people don't like admitting they wear makeup irl, so why not have everyone confess on bell tree.

I'm a guy but I wear Liquid foundation, Powder foundation, and eyeliner as well.
& I'm 100% straight!(People think otherwise because my make up and hair.)

Good for you! I respect you a lot for sharing that with everybody, it must take a lot of guts!
Meh who cares what people think anyway. *rolls eyes*

 

[Redsonic]

I just see make up as appearance enhancers, I don't know why people make such a big deal about it when guys wear it
P.S I see you like Tokyo Ghoul, It's my favorite anime. I ordered ghoul contacts and gonna start wearing one in my left eye all the time because I think it'll look awesome haha.
