Personally I like to wear makeup whenever I’m leaving the house not for school/work. So be it a grocery run, a walk, or whatever I like doing my makeup. I view makeup as my hobby, and think about how people wouldn’t see making a painting a “waste” just because no one else sees it. I also think taking photos can make it feel more “worth it”. The photos don’t have to be perfect and you don’t have to show anyone or post it anywhere, but they are nice to have and look back on. Feels like all the work isn’t just disappearing after you wash it off.
