No, still doing everything I always did. I want to feel good about myself and don't want to give my husband heart failure letting everything go!

Never wore makup anyway, and I style my hair with blow drying so nothing changing for me.

I'm giving my hair a rest. I'm washing it just not putting products in it or using the curling iron. If this makes my fine hair healthier, I may continue afterwards.

Just my pup and me here. Same as @FastDogWalker2 ; did my mani yesterday. Hair and MU- not so much. Also have not worn a bra since last Sunday- a positive to sheltering at home! I just pop a coat on over my clothes to walk the dog or the rare occasion when I have to go to the market for a hot minute.

No, I am still showering, putting on makeup and doing my hair every day. Why would anyone stop?

Since retiring in 2013, I never wear makeup of any kind, unless am I going shopping...

. I also do not get "dressed"..... unless going to run an errand....Pretty much wear the comfortable clothes at home....

nothing that way has changed with this virus...I do not get nails done or go to hairdressers....do my own hair and nails. Always have. Even cut my own hair.

why would clog my pores with makeup if I am just home all day? Or get dressed up? I am not a fussy person or a needy person. Thank goodness!

I always look nice....just not over the top with jewelry on.

The same except I'm wearing bluejeans or sweatpants. I usually go out every day for a walk.

I don't wear or need makeup. I comb & brush my hair every day. Today, I'm rocking 2 plaits. Tomorrow I'll rock a French Twist because it's Sunday & because I wanna look good grocery shopping wearing mask & gloves. Great tv dinner sale.

I'm with you on this one. I do it for me and not to impress anyone when I go somewhwere! I don't get why anyone wants to quit taking care of themselves daily just because not going anywhere! I want to look and feel my best always.

It's like the weekend everyday around here. So minimal casual hair and lip. Sometimes mascara. Comfy but answer the door acceptable clothes. I like maintaining a baseline standard to feel like I'm taking care of myself. I would only let it all go temporarily if I weren't feeling well.

A bit of clarification...I am still showering, shaving my legs, wearing "real" clothes, etc. Just giving my skin and hair a rest with minimal styling and using moisturizer with SPF on my face. I even started my self tanning regime today!

My hair routine amounts to brushing it and I only wear makeup a few times a week so not much for me. If I did wear a lot of makeup I'd probably let my skin "breath" and take a sabbatical.

My life is a perpetual weekend now...I can do as I please and no one cares. I am keeping up with my skin care routine, however.

I only wear makeup about once a week anyways. I'll still shower and do my hair as normal, but I'm putting off doing my roots.

I just touched up my roots today. If ever there was a time I am happy that I learned to do my own color, it is now.

As far as makeup, just a little lipstick, eyebrow makeup. I shower daily so most days I wash my hair too. I enjoy my beauty rituals, so won't stop now...

I have long hair that I always wear in a braid or messy bun so still doing that. never been much for make up except a little mascara & lip gloss so still doing that. keep toenails cut short & polished @ all times so still doing that. epilating my legs as needed. & slathering myself head to toe in my latest obsession...Josie Maran's Argan & Honey Divine Drip Duo!! This stuff is AMAZING!! a little goes a long way & my skin literally feels like velvet. Item #a343978, if you're interested.

I wear makeup and fix my hair daily. Sticking to my regular routine.

I don't feel good about myself if not washed, clean hair and dressed. Makeup is minimal, but there.

I have never owned a pair of sweat pants. I can't stand them and feel sloppy wearing them. I sometimes put on my pj's when I'm home but never sweatpants.

Since working from home, I am participating in conference calls with video so I am blow drying my hair and wearing minimal makeup. I am dressing in casual clothing. No pj's or sweats. I also am stopping by the office occasionally and running an errand or two.
