No, it's not weird. A lot of people hide their birthmarks, plus who cares if you're a guy.
things are only weird if you think they're weird.

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.
Exactly! I always feel kind of bad for guys because if they're ugly, they can't wear makeup. (which they can, but society scares em off) But i'm glad you're okay with it!
Ah it's my favorite anime too. WOW, do you wear them everywhere!? Or just when you're with friends and whatnot?
I was always curious how ghoul contacts worked since the white part is black, and the iris is red. Does the contact cover your whole eye?

I didn't get them in the mail yet but they'll be here soon. I've been wearing all kinds of crazy lenses(White, Red, Black sclera, etc.) for about 8 years now though and I wear them whenever I go out, to college, with friends, etc. and my vision has never been affected 
They cover your whole eye most of the time, unless if you have bigger eyes it may have some of your eye uncovered on the side but not much at all to complain about or notice much. Yeah if the red covers the iris you'll be seeing red so most sclera Tokyo ghoul contacts will be kinda like the kaneki in your signature but with black over the white and the pupil not as huge as that.

I like using foundation, eyeliner, and eyeshadow~ I don't use mascara anymore though because it makes my eyes feel tired and has kind of like a burning sensation (I've tried three or so brands already /sob) has anyone else experienced this?

Oh I gotcha now. I was confused because the contacts seem so large... I mean how do you even put contacts that large on. It looks so difficult!
Gosh though.. that's cool. You might scare a few people w/ those ghoul contacts though! (you know how scared humans are of ghouls lmao.) You should cosplay Kaneki since you're getting the contacts! That'd be cool! I want to get a Kaneki mask really badly.

mascara makes your eyes feel tired
I literally thought I was the only one! It sometimes feels like weights on your eyes... ugh. Removing it is a pain too.
Finally I found someone else who feels this way ;u; Mascara looks nice but it's just annoying to have on your eyelashes all day

I wear contacts for vision correction, and I've worn the regular color contacts too from the same brand. I was ok with that because it came from a reputable brand and my optometrist's office.
I like circle lenses and how they look, or what you described which sounds cool, in theory. But since they are usually from unknown brands, and you have to order them online...IDK, it kind of scares me. I know you said you haven't had a problem in 8 years, but...I really would still be very careful.
I don't think there's anyone really regulating those companies. Some people won't even buy a plastic toy that was made overseas, much less stick it in their eyes. XD Um...bad example, but you know what I mean. lol
Please be careful with your eyeballs!

Nope, I don't wear makeup. It would take too much work to put on and take off everyday. Plus my acne is horrible enough as it is, and I am sure I would aggravate it by wearing product all day. Someday I will have clear skin... I might have to wait until I'm 30, but I hope I get there eventually!
Saammeee, I'm so blonde that my eyebrows look non-existent. I've been filling them in though, but I kinda suck at it. Idk if the pencil is too dark or if I'm just incompetent. lol
~Also, does anyone wear fake eyelashes? I've tried and it's literally the hardest thing for me to do by myself. =.="

I'm glad there's not too much of the whole ~elitist, I'm better than you because I don't wear makeup~ vibe in this thread. I wear makeup pretty much every time I go out because I feel more put together with it on.
I use BB cream (Etude House), MAC's studio fix for my t zone, MAC's black liquid liner, Mascara (Maybelline's the falsies and Clinique's bottom lash mascara), bronzer (Too Faced), blush (MAC), some natural looking lip product, and I fill in my eyebrows with some Shiseido eyebrow powder.
I use too faced bro see too. I prefer the shimmer kind for a bit of glow to brighten up my face (I'm super pale)

I heard that if you put vaseline or castor oil on your brows.. it helps them grow and makes them thicker.
I'm not even joking, you can google it!
I kinda suck at it also but I'm a master blender with everything else so I've been trying to apply similar principles. I use an eyebrow brush and use the thin side to comb out to make it easier to apply, then fill in with brown pencil... It looks bad like a child's crayon coloring, but the. I brush/blend with the soft bristles so it looks natural and repeat steps till I'm happy. I have light brown brows though, I just have thing hair but I know some people have brows like yours which I different. I don't know I always ask for advice at sephora. You just have to find someone nice/good there that will help you!

I'm just here to get spartan kicked. I actually did have it on my face once for a cosplay. It felt really weird.
I love them! I don't wear them everyday, only because I don't know how to keep cleaning one pair that much...and if I keep switching them...well I'm not made of money. XD
I just really like how in the 60s they wore them everyday...well, some girls. I asked my mom and she said that they just used the same pair for a while, and it was fine. But she thinks it's a little gross and unhygienic now. Hehe, times have changed.
But I'm starting to get pretty good at putting them on. It just takes practice. I'm sure you'll get better if you do it a few more times.

I used to be really into make-up and stuff when I finally emerged from my shell of self-hated, I used to do all the cool multi-colored eye shadow looks, that I learned from youtube. Haha. But now I just shove my finger into the eye shadow smudge it in from the outside, maybe darken my brows a bit, and put on some tinted lip gloss, that's the amount of effort that I am willing to exert into it though. Too lazy, and I don't care what people think so it's more for me than anything. Like, "oh damn girl your brows on point!"

I don't usually wear makeup unless I'm cosplaying. I have friends who tell me to wear makeup because it boosts their self confidence so it would boost mine too, but actually I'm quite the opposite. When I wear makeup in day to day life I feel as though I'm hiding who I am and that it's an act and I'm not really me and so I feel uncomfortable and like people are judging me for wearing makeup. I do occasionally if I do wear makeup put on eyeliner and some mascara but those are probably the only two consistent makeups I wear outside of cosplaying or dressing up for something relatively important.

You need to make up your confidence, that's the key!
I know that was cheesy, don't rub it in.
