BellaOnline Forums Beauty and Self Beauty Basics Leaving the House without Makeup

Yes, I do. But not always. Depends where I am going, and how bad I look!

I think just a nice, bright, clean face is sometimes more beautiful than a lot of makeup, and it feels better. I am not putting down anyone who does wear makeup. Makeup can be great and can accent nice features or bring out eye color, etc. I used to wear makeup everyday, but gave it up years ago. I just like a nice fresh, clean face now, with a little lipstick or gloss - or sometimes a little vaseline on my lips.

The last time I went out without makeup (except vacation) was before I met my husband. That time I ran smack into an ex-boyfriend. I never did that again!

Murphy's Law number 9 states that if you don't want to run into someone chances are you will.

Yeah, sometimes I am the person that was run into unexpectedly and I feel for the other person if they look bad!

I have no problem doing that and I think of myself being someone very ugly. I do like putting on makeup but haven't done that in a few years. When I wear makeup I put on a foundation (i love the powder/liquid that is pressed with that no need to use anything else even to cover my dark circles), eyebrows pencil, eyeshadow, mascara and I finish with lipstick.
