I use to barely wear foundations but for some reason my body likes to tan really quickly and never my face so I'll use foundation frequently in order to try to get it to match more evenly. Other than that its normally just a bit of eyeliner and mascara and I'm done getting ready. If I'm going out thats when I'll use eyeliner. Why I wear it... I dunno. I think I started because everyone else was doing it and now I feel that I just kind of look weird without it on. I guess I'm used to my fake face that my real one seems like its the fake one now. lol

for me, i need my eyeliner. I'm a brunette, and I think that black eyeliner makes my eyes pop and it goes well with dark hair. my friend is very blonde, and it looked bad on her. ah well. but i very rarely use foundation, because i like to keep my skin free of that kind of stuff. But i hear you... i've been wearing makeup for 5 years now, and it's really weird to see myself without it on... i dont feel as pretty. if you want to transition from makeup to a natural look, start using less and less makeup in a slow process... that's how i got out of wearing really dark eyeshadow. just use a little less every week. it should work.

hi gladys22, my dear friend, your mom is also right in her words but now a days the creams and the bases which females apply on their face and other parts alos now a days , te material used is ery good and skin friendly. the only thing is that you should know your skin type and should choose the right product . i dont wear make up at al myself but i never advice people not to use them. its a personal choice and now their are such good companies in the market who have done so much research on skin and skin types that if you know well about your skin you can apply it on daily basis also and nothing will happen to your skin. before their were not that much conciousness of beauty and wearing makeup. but now people are very concious about their looks and need to wear makeup when they are sitting idle also in their houses. so every type of make up and one that can be worn every time is also in the market. you just have to gpo and search the right product for yourself. one should not wear heavy make up bt a light one is ok , i suppose. and all what you use daily, its ok. it will not harm you or you skin any way. i on my wedding also did not wear makeup. i applied a lip balm thats it, ot even a lip gloss. nothing.

I love my make-up, most of the time I will not go out of the house without it. It makes me feel good to wear make-up, I look and and feel pretty with it, everyone says I wear my makeup well, I have been weraing it since I was 18, I am 54 yrs old now, I can put it on in like five minutes, I wear everything from Lipstick to masscara, to blush, lineliner eye liner, eyeshadow. I just love wearing make-up IO put it on really good, I can be a Make-up Artist if I wanted to be. that is how good I can wear it. I hate to see a person that doesn't knw how to put make-up on. it looks terrible. Have a nice day!

Of course I wash it off before I go to sleep I don't want makeup all over my sheets, not only that, i want my skin to be clean, I always wash my face before I go to bed, i wash my face twice a day, when I get up in the Morning and when I go to bed.

hmmm you've used it for a long time but how about the side effect for using on it? some says it well cause you skin terrible if you put make up and if you can't wash it b4 you sleep.

I really hate make-up. I don't like wearing it or the way it makes other people look. I don't like it when people look false and unnatural. To me there's something a bit freaky about it; like you're trying to hide your real identity, and I don't feel like I can get to know someone who plasters their face with lots of stuff. I went through a phase of trying it out when I was in my teens, but I think I was just rebelling against something, as most teens do, lol! When I try it once in a while now it just makes me look a bit like a drag queen, and I don't like the feel of it against my skin. I have to wash it off straight away.

Hi! I think it is important when your going in some special occasions, it will add an extra good look! I don't use make so often and when I do, I use face powder, eyebrows pencil and blush on.
