  • Eh, I could take it or leave it. I went for a while in my 20s unable to leave the house without makeup on. I’ve also gone years with no makeup except for super special occasions, and it was quite freeing to feel that comfortable in my own skin.

    Now I’m back to wearing it daily, but it’s because I WANT to. However I have come to accept the fact that “makeup looks” just don’t work on me. It all disappears (really hooded eyes, low brows, glasses, and oily skin) so I pretty much stick to concealer under eyes, mascara and maybe eyeliner (like a few times a month), eyebrow pencil, and a lip color. The lip color is where I express my moods 😁 I may pull out the smokey winged shadow on date night if I feel like it 😉

    I saw a Smitha video where she shows how put together you can look with zero makeup except a strong lipstick, and it really inspired me.
