Makeup
Hi Ladies!!
I'm curious do you wear makeup everyday? If so, is it a full makeup application or just powder and liner.
I wear a full makeup application 5 days a week and powder and liner on my off days.
Thanks
28 RepliesSince makeup is my profession, I am FULL face, no holds barred about 5 days a week! On my off days I am normally outside, so I do tinted moisturizer, eyebrows, eyeliner, mascara, and lip gloss. There are rare days I dont want ANYTHING on my face and that happens maybe once every 2 months. 
i'm an everyday makeup kind of girl. my usual is foundation, shadow primer, shadow, liner, mascara, & sometimes some bronzer. putting on my makeup is like a ritual, i call it my "me" time haha. i just enjoy doing my makeup & playing around with new looks. on days when i'm not really going anywhere i'll go for a more natural look though consisting of foundation, shadow primer, shadows close to my skin tone, but a tad darker for definition & mascara.
The only time I don't wear makeup is when I'm home sick. If I'm leaving the house, I've got moisturizer, sunscreen, concealer, eye liner, mascara, and gloss on at a minimum.
Sometimes when I am just at home, I do eyebrows and mascara. (after always moisture routine). If I plan I gong out I do the whole thing. I use concealer, primer, foundation, blush, eyeshadow, eye liner, mascara, lip liner, lipstick, and lip gloss.. I usually wear a smokey eye because my eyes are my best feature, and I want to play that up.
On weekdays I wear a light coverage foundation, under eye concealer, blush, mascara, eyeliner and lip gloss. On the weekends though I usually stick with under eye concealer, mascara, blush and lip balm, unless I'm going out at night. I try to give my face a break from foundation on the weekends if I can.
I now wear moisturizer during most of the year on part of my face due to combination skin. I will try most things if available just to see how I can work it. But, I don't like to go out without at least eyeliner. I think that I have been using less makeup in some areas than when I was a younger. But, I have more skin issues that I like to hide, such as cover stick when it is red due to skin irritation, and then a stick foundation. My skin tone/color can vary according to the season. So, I don't rely on finding a color that will quite match it. If I ever wear more makeup, (blush for example) it will be if a picture is being taken. I feel the camera can be unflattering ,if you don't accent your face in a way. Especially in certain light. Those pictures remain in people's memories, and so I don't want to see myself all washed out from the bad lighting.
During the week I wear primer, foundation, mascara, and setting powder (oily skin). Sometimes I will wear eyeshadow. But It looks completely natural like I'm not wearing anything at all.
On the weekends to run errands I dont' wear makeup at all. Its too much of a hassle. But if I'm going somewhere during the day, I will pretty much follow the same routine as during the week.
If I'm going out, I go all out. Full application :)
On lazy days I apply light foundation/concealer underneath my eyes and on my eye lids, curl my eye lashes and add a little bit of mascara, apply a color stick on the apples of my cheeks and use a lip gloss or lip stick (I love having color on my lips). This takes me about 3 minutes.
If I'm doing something special I'll add eye liner, more mascara, blush and bronzer. This will take me closer to 7-10 minutes.
