Makeup? |
It gives girls beauty and self confidence. Without makeup, imagine how many girls would enjoy looking at themself in the mirror. |

It gives girls low self-esteem. And they eventually lost all sense of beauty, relying soley on makeup to make them look pretty. |

Okay, so, I know a lot of girls that wear makeup. Some wear it everyday, some rely on it to feel beautiful, and some of them wear it occasionally on special occasions (Such as parties, etc.)
So, I, myself, don't wear makeup. I've never worn it once. For one thing, my mom won't allow me, and the second, I don't want to rely on makeup to make myself feel better. (I've already got a low self-esteem. I don't find myself beautiful in any way.) I'm surrounded constantly by friends who wear makeup, everytime I see them, I find myself thinking, 'Does it really matter?'
So, my question is, do you think that makeup is really important? And, do you wear it? If so, how often do you put it on?

Although I don't, for the most part, have low self-esteem, I do wear make-up.
I use foundation daily because I have massive red acne scars. Mostly, though, it locks my moisturizer in place so I don't have to keep reapplying it throughout the day. (I have extremely dry skin prone to crackage and even bleeding.)
Other than that, however, I don't wear much make-up because, honestly, a la natural is sooo much more preferable. It's obvious that a girl caked up in stuff is a Plane-Jane underneath. What's more attractive is enhancing what you've got! My eyes are, admittedly, quite lovely--so I wear some eyeliner and mascara to make them more noticeable. I have high, prominent cheekbones that are nicely accentuated with a swipe of blush. Not to mention my lips which, according to my sweet-heart, are full and kissable --- and that touch of pink glimmer makes them all the more tempting, not to mention soft and tasty. ;D
SO short-version: makeup is great for BRINGING OUT what you've already got (and, yes, covering up the occasional imperfection )-- not blatantly faking what you don't have.
However; makeup can be an all-around pain and will seriously clog your pores if you neglect removing it. It's difficult to know just how much to put on. It takes practice and time to figure out how to properly "disguise" it. It should be "disguised" because if you wear too much and try to cover up every little flaw -- it's painfully obvious when you don't have time to "put your face on" in the morning.

♭♮♯ Sleeping wonder lies to me, and the lies are sweet.
Do you think makeup is important? Meh. I don't like to leave the house without concealer on at least, but I know plenty of people that don't wear any. It's a matter of personal opinion. Do you wear it? Yeppers. How often do you put it on? I wear foundation/concealer every day (for school or just going to Safeway; I put it on in the morning). On school days, depending on how tired I am when I wake up, I might use some purple eyeliner (it's not very bright, and it brings out my eyes in a cool way) and maybe mascara. If I'm going somewhere like the mall or dinner, I use eyeshadow, and choose the color based on how it looks with what I'm wearing, then the eyeliner based on the eyeshadow. I've really been experimenting with bright colors lately, and they're so much fun!

ChibiLlama4 Ooh~! Dang girl, I remember thinking just like you. But even though you may not think that you're pretty, who's to say that sprucing yourself up with makeup won't make you even prettier? Heck, make those other girls jealous. rofl I remember when I first started wearing makeup in High School. ALL the girls that once picked on me just stopped, and tried to find reasons to pick on me, but were never able to. And believe me. That, is one HECK of an ego boost. You don't have to wear anything that makes you look superficial. Go for a more natural look. Just some base, light blush, and lip gloss go a LONG way.
I don't know, I'm still not all so sure. I've tried lip gloss before...I didn't like it very much. Haha. sweatdrop Even if I wore makeup, I just don't think that I'd be able to work it. >o<
