Women and their facial makeup…

[LadyEmeraude]

When I'm just running out, I'll put on moisturizer and sunscreen, foundation powder, a little tinted lip gloss, and no eye makeup. I'll put on a BB cream or light foundation, blush, neutral eye shadow, a little eyebrow powder, and lipstick if I'm heading out for dinner or somewhere in the afternoon. I don't need mascara, so I seldom wear it.

I’ve remember those few pics you posted long ago. You’re quite pretty Bella.

Thanks, Em. That's very sweet of you to say.

Its just me here. Some days I wear makeup at home . Some days I dont. Depends on my mood.
I wear moisturizer every day. I usually wear makeup when I go out and about.
Although I have made a trip to the hardware store without and nobody passed out.

I dont wear mascara but I do wear eyeliner and eye shadow. Some blush and some lipstick.
I am pale and look washed out if I dont wear something. My skin has survived pretty well so I dont do much.
I only wear foundation and powder when I have a to do.

I remember a nice pic you once posted of your lovely mom. Am I correct that she was sitting at a booth wearing red ? Or am I all mixed up?

Also I remember Merle Norman products being popular way back when and the makeovers

Yes, you have a great memory! Thank you!

It is interesting that some people seem to change dramatically with make up - and other's stay pretty natural looking.

As said above, people should do what makes them happy! I like watching videos where people put on makeup.

I like the second one for office or day look, but I like the first one if she's going out for the evening and wants to be dazzling.

Lipstick always, because without it I look like I don't have lips.

Some eyebrow powder, because without it....well, you know the drill.

That's it. I've never in my life worn foundation or powder. I used to wear a little mascara and eyeshadow but that ended a long time ago. I've never been one for blush.

I've never worn foundation powder, only lippy whenever I got out, and always wear moisturizer to keep the skin supple.

I don’t wear daily makeup for work, though I’ve always used an abundance of moisturizer….both face and body. My work is often physical and so the way I dress (workout clothes) and no makeup is for comfort and ease.

I don’t wear makeup to the grocery or for running errands either. But when Ron and I go out, or we have friends over, or attend other social functions, I always wear makeup. BB cream or concealer, light dusting of powder and blush, soft eye shadow and mascara. If it’s formal or evening, I’ll go a little more dramatic with the eye makeup and dust a bronzer (sheen) over my nose, cheekbones, and forehead.

I'm a guy. All I know about women's facial makeup is that it's complicated. And mere guys like Stephen Hawking and Einstein couldn't figure it out.

I am not putting any makeup on today.

I am not putting any makeup on today.

I don't have to go anywhere, so neither am I.

Ive been doing makeup cleanout. I got it all together from upstairs and down.
I dont know how I got all this. Anyways. I tried three eyeliners this morning. One stayed. Two went in the trash.
My goal is to pare things down to what I will actually wear.

Even if Im not going out and about I still like to wear some makeup to keep in practice.
Its also good to know at home that what you thought worked doesnt. Instead of getting out someplace
and realizing you look like Mimi.

I have no problem leaving the house without makeup. For one thing, I just never could develop the skills for applying makeup. I can watch a tutorial but can’t transfer the techniques to my own face. And forget about asking me to select a foundation to match my skin tone.
But one thing I won’t go without is a daily moisturizing sun screen.
