Do you wear makeup?

Nope. Other than covering up pimples maybe but that's because I hate getting them and cover them up asap.

I very rarely use other make-up though.

I have some pimple scars left, so I do use it for that. My acne got so bad one year, that I had to go on prescription. It's all better now though. Pimples are the worst.

Only on Halloween.

I've a lot of respect for those who choose to wear makeup. Good makeup is an art form, and it's very time consuming. I don't feel it's something that should be mocked. Also as it was mentioned in the original post - there's nothing wrong with guys wearing makeup. I really respect any guy who has the guts to wear makeup in public. Am I'm glad they don't let societies expectations limit the way they express themselves. People, regardless of gender, look great in makeup and without. I just hope they can do whatever feels best for them without judgement.

I can't agree with you more. Society deems makeup as bad/ fake beauty, and I feel like if someone wants to express themselves that way.. it's none of your damn business.
Guys who wear makeup have my respect.

Yeah I have a few as well I think, I cover them up regularly.

I'm just not interested in other make-up, it's just me I guess :] All respect for people who are though

When I was in school I would wear it almost everyday (unless I woke up really late or was super tired in general) but now I only wear it when I leave the house for the day, which isn't very often. When I do wear it though, I do the whole shebang. Primer, foundation, concealer, setting powder, blush, bronzer, mascara, eyeshadow, lipstick.

 

[Alienfish]

Cool.. I wouldn't mind having eyeliner/shadow or mascara though. I hardly use lipstick or such though.

When I mean business:

Face Primer (Smashbox Redness Reducer)
Liquid Foundation (Smashbox)
Powder Foundation (Neutrogena something-or-other)
Blush (Nars)
Eye Shadow Primer (Urban Decay)
Eye Shadow (Generally from the UD Naked palette cause A+)
Eye Liner (Marc Jacobs Magic Marc-er)
Brow Pencil (Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz)
Mascara (Make Up For Ever)
Sealer Spray (UD All Nighter)

Voila!

Foundation and mascara only I am lazy/unmotivated

Honestly..imo, makeup isn't necessary..even if there's acne or flaws in general on someone's face. I don't wear makeup at all or anything on my face during the day considering it's so irritating. Even if it's just lip balm, it's irritating to feel on my lips the whole day, so I apply it over night to maintain smooth lips. I honestly don't get why mascara and eye liner is so important..I get that it helps make the eyes look larger, but still it's just unnecessary from my opinion.

 

[Eldin]

No.

I usually look like a boy because my face is plain and I have short hair but honestly I can't be bothered, and I don't really like the feel of make-up on my face? I used to wear it probably through grades 7-9 and then in high school I stopped. When I tried to wear it years later I found it uncomfortable, and I was so used to what my face actually looked like with nothing on that I didn't really feel I needed it anymore. I don't even wear it if I'm going out or anything because it feels so strange to me now that I'll just rub it all over my face anyways.

 

[Rasha]

meh, makeup is overrated but I wear it from time to time ^^

 

[Brad]

Not always. Only when I'm trying to looks special for that special someone.

 

[SaffronJoy]

I have a daily skincare routine which means I'm usually hesitant to put on makeup on my face. I do wear eyeliner on the regular and sometimes under-eye concealer if I'm looking particularly dead. And of course to fancier events I'll go all out.

Your makeup is literally top notch. I can't afford those brands to save my life. *sigh*

Especially urban decay/ anastasia

I really go all out when it's for that person.

 

[Mega_Cabbage]

Nah. I don't really feel like spending time trying to look pretty. My sister put some on me once for fun and I just ended up looking like a child who raided their mom's makeup drawer rather than a person my own age. My skin naturally doesn't get acne for some reason, so I wouldn't really need it anyway.

I bought a lot of it while I was at my old job, where I made a crapton more money. Made it to Sephora Rouge status, so that helped immensely in getting the best stuff for cheap. Now that my old company went out of business, I'm back to being a poor post-grad so it will be interesting when it all runs out... haha.

Gosh, sorry to hear that. It does sound like a dream to get a discount on anything at Sephora *-*
Yeah.. when it goes out, you might have to turn to drug-store makeup. *shivers*

drug store makeup isn't THAT bad, but then again that's all i can really afford ._. i'm not sure if anyone here has heard of Coastal Scents before, but they're pretty cheap and of decent quality

I don't like drug store makeup when it comes to foundation/ concealer/ whatnot. I don't mind drugstore mascara, or eyeliner because it's all pretty much the same to me.
I haven't heard of Coastal Scents though. What do they sell?

 

[Oblivia]

I'll usually wear a light dusting of loose powder (Smashbox Halo), a bit of eyeshadow (Urban Decay is my favorite), and some mascara (Benefit BADgal) if I'm going out somewhere or entertaining guests, but I normally won't bother if I'm just staying at home by myself.

Though I will say that I definitely appreciate makeup as an art form after having had my makeup done by some top-notch makeup artists for random photo shoots... those people can seriously create a new person out of you with a mere blob of chemicals and some goat hair.

 

[matcha]

i like to wear makeup, but i never give myself much time to get ready so i usually leave the house with only some mascara on. i never go full on out with foundation and primer because i always get paranoid i'm gonna end up accidentally wiping it off and having nasty blotchy patches by the end of the day.

if i do end up doing my makeup it's some eyeliner, maybe a little eye shadow, mascara and lipgloss.

 

[Jiska]

I use foundation, mascara and a bit of eyeshadow. I am not a make-up guru and probably applying it wrong anyways lol
