How do you wear your makeup?
Some day's i don't wear any, other days i use black eyeliner ( bottom of lid only ). I don't really need my lash's done they long enough.
I wear shadow, normally dark.
I some days wear foundation.
I like lipstick though, My lips are blue so i prefer to wear it.
My pet hates are girls/woman that have foundation on but it stops right at the jaw and it looks like they wearing a face on a face.
Interested in any simple tips, youngsters use the makeup in many different ways.

never wear it in every day life, working outside in all weathers isn't really the best environment to wear it in lol. if i wear it, it is only a little eye stuff and lippy when i go out.

You have no need of any makeup Tuggs your bonny as you are, and I dont use any either, my mother warned me about men with make up :lol:

never wear it unless i am going out somewhere special, the thought of plastering my face with make up just to go shoppping etc is just nuts.
I prefer to let my skin breathe not suffocate it under all that gunk;)

don't bother with foundation and hate that tango'd effect that stops at the jawline. yuk!

If abroad in hot place use pore refiner as a base as makeup does not run so much with it. If here and it is cool I wear moisturiser as a barrier.

Wear eyeshadow in light brown/gold or grey(blue/grey eyes) , eyeliner (liquid) on upper and half of lower and waterproof mascara. blusher lightly on apples of cheeks and lippy (with lip balm in winter). Lipcoat is very good if going somewhere special to seal lips but no good with glossy lipsticks as just goes gunky.

Have to make sure that the colour pallet you use goes with colouring.

Don't wear it, too lazy to get up half an hour early in a morning just to put a bit of slap on. Even on my wedding day all I had was lipsil - did cheat a bitty and have a false tan done a few days before though lol

I don't usually wear make up but do love Mineral 'Foundation'.

It is completely natural and is so pure you can sleep in it! I hate wearing normal foundation!

I used to wear make-up to go to the mail box [lol]
But now, I work from home so I really only put on a full face when I am going out for dinner or something like that.

I will wear make-up today to church. But most likely just a lick of tinted moisturiser and some mascara and a bit of lip salve.

Full face is foundation, blemish concealer, 2 colours of eyeshadow (shades to match what I'm wearing), blush, eyeliner, mascara, lipliner and lippy, and sometimes a gloss.
As I used to do this so often when I worked, it only takes me a couple of minutes, I could never understand when people said it took them hours to get ready. Even my hair only takes a few minutes. I just don't muck around, get stuck in and I'm off :Razz.

When i was youger i wouldn't go out of the house without make up on - now i hardly ever wear it. Usually only if i am going for a night out or an interview I will wear some. It's not that it takes long to do i just don't see the point in wearing it everyday.

I wouldnt be seen out without it.Nor me. I can manage perfectly well without it but I get so much more done with my little confidence boosters.

I wear make up if im going for a night out. Very occasionally, if i can be bother i will put some on when we do are weekly shop:D

I use very little foundation, green, purple or smokey eyes, brown eyeliner (not as harsh as black) and mascara. I never wear lip stick tho i just use nivea lip balm or vaseline. And you girls out there who have'nt invested in a pair of eyelash curlers go get yourself a pair they are great, they make my eyes look well big:lol:

Just a good moisturiser for a 'glow', lipsalve and a bit of eyebrow definition for me.

MrW doesn't like me wearing make-up...I used to try and get away with a bit of mascara and liner, but he'd spot it straight away and tell me, in a nice way, he liked me better without it....I've been taking it as a compliment all these years, but:eek:....

And he still hasn't sussed the eyebrow enhancement[lol]!

I'd hesitate to set foot outside the house with a bare face :eek: but only put on the minimum....tinted moisturiser, a wee bit of eyeliner under my eyes and some lippy.

I don't think I look made up, just a bit less tired than I do without it! ;)

Dadie

usually just a bare face but when I feel low or my face is bad with dark circles under the eyes and THAT spot on the chin or if im going somewhere special(not tescos!) I will slap on some make up .. cover stick, tinted moisturiser, eyeshadow, lippy and mascara

I used to wear make-up every day as a teenager but I have eczema on my face and it got worse as a teen. I went to the doc about it and she suggested not wearing makeup anymore or even stop altogether. So now I only wear it when I really need to - 3 times a week!

My routine is tinted moisturiser, powder, eyebrow pencil (good for definition), black eyeliner (only the outer corners of my eyes to make them look bigger!), 2 shades of eyeshadow (pinks or browns), curl eyelashes (fantastic invention!!) then 2 layers of mascara, blusher on the apples of the cheeks and drift up the cheekbone to the hairline, then lippy - either red or pale pink/brown depending on my mood and the occasion!

Make-up makes me feel much more confident about myself and my hubby always says I look stunning with it (and without!) but personally it covers up the nasty bits and makes the best of the nice bits! ;)

I don't wear full make-up unless I'm going out in the evening someplace special. During the day, I just don't wear it. Don't have the time, and just can't be asked! The one exception tho is a clinique powder for my nose which evens out the rosea (I think that's how you spell it - basically red). I'd look like Rudolph everyday if I didn't!

I go for just a wee hint of colour where there should be colour, eyelash curlers
and the best beauty boost Known to woman...an illuminating highlighter or flash balm.

It's not that we are old/tired/spotty etc.....

......just badly lit!;)

I'm reluctant to leave the house at all without my cover-up to hide those nasty dark circles (I blame the kids :lol:), and a dusting of blusher and powder as I have quite an oily t-zone - lovely!! For lips, I always carry my 8hr creme around with me, and re-apply it constantly, it's brilliant for giving a slick of gloss, and it works a treat on any chapping. Like Karia, I'm also a great believer in a decent highlighter too - it can really brighten you up and works wonders on tired looking eyes. (When abroad, I use my 8hr creme as an alternative highlighter, popping a wee drop on my eye lids to open them up without loading on colour).

These days I only put the full slap on if I'm heading out for the night, but when I do I love to experiment - I try and adapt the latest trends to suit my own colouring. I've always loved "playing" with make-up, even as a kid, I just don't really get much time to do it now :confused.

The only times I leave the house without makeup on is to go to the gym or work in the yard. I love the bare minerals makeup -- very good for the skin. Like Lolabelle I can slap it all on in no time flat.
