Makeup?

[ILoveMyAbbyGirl]

How do you feel about makeup?

Do you wear it?

If you have kids, how old were they when you let them wear it? Did they WANT to?

I don't wear makeup, but occasionally blush or something just to cover up maybe a mark on my face or something. Not usually eyeshadow unless my mom makes me, believe it or not, she does, lol. Like for a special occasion, she made me wear some blue-silvery eyeshadow... Lipstick, I don't like. I hardly wear lip gloss, much less lipstick.

I don't think I need it, not to sound all into myself, but I am who I am and God made me this way for a purpose.

I like interesting Make-Up.

Black eyeliner, pretty eyeshadows. I especially like reds/pink/oranges.

I can't stand black lipstick. I hate when girls just put lip liner on, it looks like you have chocolate around your lips.

I don't wear make-up myself, But I've put it on a few times just for fun & something to do. I normally wear chapstick or lipgloss at the most.

If you can't put it on, or you over do it all the time, just don't wear any at all. If it makes you happy though, go ahead, I atill think it looks horrible.

Now I really DO think we were seperated at birth. lolololol

Well, I worked as a make-up artist for a long time so obviously I love make-up.

I agree that I've seen some hideous make-up. I particularly loathe white eyeliner and frosty pink lipstick. But, hey.....that's just me.

Oh and the worst is when someone wears foundation and it doesn't even match their skin!

Hehehe.

OH.. I hate when people put bronzer on or whatever when they're completely PALE. I love being pale, and there's nothing wrong with it -- But, if you want to be that color then go tan! It looks so odd when they their face is WAY darker than the rest!

The only time I wear makeup is Halloweenie. The only thing that touches my face is Vitamin E cream every day. In fact I do have a makeup bag that's being used as a door stop.

Powder, eyeliner, and mascara are about the only thing I wear. I have a TON of make-up--absolutely LOVE to buy it--but I hardly ever wear very much, plus I have very sensitive skin (thank God for Clinique & Lancome ).

The only thing I carry around in a makeup bag is my Contacts Solution and an extra pair of contacts... I've been known to rub my eyes and they fall out and I lose them.. I also carry band-aids (this week is HP band-aids.. they glow in the dark!) and that's about it.

I don't even own a "Make-Up Bag"

I LOVE makeup. I think it's lots of fun and I love all the colors and ways you can enhance or detract certain facial features.

But I don't think everyone should wear it. You should only do it if you truly enjoy the process.

I'm a very scary woman without my makeup. I don't subject people to that if I can help it.
I'm a girlie girl. I love all the potions

I have to have my eyelashes at least.......black mascara helps. Other than that, I can take it or leave it, but I usually wear makeup when I am out on business, on a special occasion or for church.

This is pretty much what I was going to say! LOL! Years and years ago my mom sold Avon and I think I "got the bug" back then for all of the neat little things that you could buy to enhance the way you look. These days I basically start out with my Oil of Olay (trying my hardest to keep the skin young as long as possible ), then some mascara, a little eyeliner, blush and lipstick. I really don't like going out anywhere with at least some of the above on, for the reason that 2kitties said.

I'm not really a makeup person. I do use a bit of blush when we're having guests over, or when we go to someone's house or somewhere where we'll meet a lot of people, but other than that, nope. I use chapstick occasionally but I don't consider that makeup. Its to keep my lips from going dry. Same thing with lotions/dry skin creams. I use them at night to keep my skin from getting dry, but then again, I don't consider them as *makeup*. Just something to help keep my skin healthy, since I use the Vitamin E/aloe vera ones. Other than the occasional blush, I'm usually just myself. I've never used eyeliner or anything on my eyes. People say my eyes look like they have a natural eyeliner on them, so I guess I don't need one. I can't stand lipstick on my face. I think it makes me look totally unnatural. Sometimes before taking a shower, I'll mess around with my mom's lipstick and makeup and see what I look like. Of course I think I look strange and *bright* in a funny sort of way, so 10 seconds later, its all washed off. I hate the glitter makeup some people use on their face. It makes them look all sparkly and from far, sweaty. I told my cousin, who uses glitter make up ALL THE TIME, that she looks sweaty from far, in a joking way, and she got mad. Hehehe. I love teasing her. Oh well. I just like being the real me, and not the painted me.

I love makeup. I feel almost naked without it. Wear it to work everyday, but mostly stay makeup free on the weekends to give my skin a break unless we have plans to go out. I have a huge purse that I carry my everyday makeup in..that way if I'm running late for work(as usual) I can finish my makeup in the lot I park in or in the ladies room.

I love all the different shades of lipsticks and nail polishes. I hate when I pass buy a makeup counter with a free gift because then I'll buy a few lipsticks in new colors and get the gift.

Started playing with make up when I was 12, but all my Mom would let me wear out was clear mascara and lip gloss. Probably started regularly wearing makeup when I was 14 or 15 when I was out with my girlfriends, but never to school. As it was I never really wore that much makeup in highschool, just some powder, eyeshadow, mascara and lipstick.

oh and 2kitties and Pam: I can relate! I'm a girlie girl to...something Joey says he love about me. My boss even told me I'm the most feminine woman he knows. My cousins even call me girlie girl. What can I say... I love make up, like to buy lots of clothes(mostly dresses and skirts) and am more comfortable in heels than flats. That's just me.

I also love make-up and worn right, it enhances your looks, and it also acts as a sun protector, as the foundation I wear REVLON, has sun protection in it.

I am an ex-Avon sales-rep, and never ever made any money, as I kept spending it back on their products, I am thinking of starting up again its been over ten yrs since I did it.

I allow my daughter a little lippy and eyeshadow, only on special occassions, like the school disco etc.

Although she does have a great selection of sabrinas secrets make-up that came with her magazine.

I sure would not be without my make-up bag,I am quite pale -skinned , so I sure need some brightening up.
