Will You Wear Regular Makeup?

ECBG — Thu, 13 May 2021 01:27:28 GMT

Will you wear a full face of makeup when masks are worn less?

I love the beautiful looks that can be achieved plus blush and of course lipstick .

When I go out, I wear a full face, it's just a habit. I've been home so much, it's a treat to get a little fixed up.

@ECBG

I haven’t worn what I think of as a full face of makeup in years. In my case less really is better. However, I enjoy what I do wear!

It depends on whether or not I have a flare of one immune disease or the other. Some days, it is futile to try to wear makeup. You girls that complain and struggle over perceived wrinkles, you know nothing.

I only wear a mask when I absolutely HAVE to! I only use makeup when I go out - anywhere - I never leave the house without makeup. My makeup habits haven't changed at all in the last year. Can't WAIT to leave the masks in the house... better yet, in the garbage. They tickle my nose and make my nose run, so half the time the mask is on I'm lifting it to blow my nose.

I still wear full face makeup when I go to church. Otherwise, I have had no reason to wear any makeup at all except yesterday when Hubby and I went to have lunch with some friends of his. For that I wore almost full makeup except eyeshadow and finishing powder, and did a much lighter lip which is the same as I would wear when meeting my lady friends for lunch before the pandemic.. I didn't wear a mask.

Right now for work I wear concealer, light shadow/mascara, finishing powder, blush and lip color. That is my full face so nothing will change without masks. I realize the blush and lip color are only for me unless I’m getting gas LOL.

@ECBG Yes I enjoy wearing makeup and will always wear foundation etc just to make myself feel better.

Yes, I was fiddling in my mothers makeup drawer when I was about 5 years old.

I'm already wearing full makeup twice a week, and more for Zoom meetings! I keep telling myself I don't need any more makeup, but yeah - that hasn't happened!

I always wear full makeup every day the same as I shower, eat and workout and not just when I go anywhere. I do it for me and not to impress others when going anywhere!!! I would have to be pretty darn sick not to. Also the makeup I wear is skincare and without any my face would feel ucky and itchy especially with a mask on.

I have not worn full makeup in so long that I don't even remember how!!! When I was still working I used to get so tired of it and think it was a pain. But now I miss it!!!! I had days when after I did all my makeup I thought --- hey, you look really good! Other days even after I finished I was not happy with the result!

Since virus, the only thing I've worn is lip balm! My favorite makeup item was always lipstick -- I must have 40 lipsticks and glosses, at least!

We still have to wear masks pretty much every place we go. Since I have so many skin issues, I don't want to wear foundation, powder, blush, and all that, and then smother my skin with a mask, because I get so hot!

But lately I've been wanting to get back in the groove somewhat. I have been posting here about wanting to try new eye shadow sticks, getting my eyebrows tinted (possibly), buying new mascara, etc.! I am tired of looking just ------- blah!!!!

I have enjoyed not wearing makeup the last 15 months! Don't know if I'll ever return to wearing 'a full face' of makeup except for very special occasions. It's been so freeing. I've always hated wearing makeup, but always did because I felt I needed it. Now I don't.

If I ever do decide to start wearing makeup again, I'll need to buy all new stuff and start all over again.

I was just thinking the other day that I haven't

worn make-up for so long unless recently going to grands birthdays or any celebrations with family I basically live with though separate.

I don't have eye shadow I really love right now. It was always fun to look for it in stores and I haven't been to look for a while.

What I really kind of miss is wearing jewelry everyday-I have so many pretty things that I loved to wear.

These days it is a lot about practicality, and getting thru the day.

I help with family a lot so it just becomes not a priority.

And that's ok too. There are mny joys in other things.

I wear full makeup everyday. I don't feel dressed until I put it on.

Wearing very little makeup has been liberating for me. I have gotten comfortable enough with going out of the house with very little makeup on, even without a mask. Going forward I won't be wearing it like I use to, except for special occasions. My skin looks healthy!

No, I wore a full face of makeup when I was working and it wasn't something I enjoyed. I pretty much stopped wearing makeup when I retired, except for special occasions. I'm taking makeup with me to the shore, but I may not wear it the entire time we're there.

@ECBG Good morning. I always wore minimal makeup (except weh working on clients, I did a full face...as an example). During full time maske wearing, my minimal routine became much less and was concealer, brows, blush and colored lip balm or a lip stain I used a lip liner to fill in, balm on top.

When I'm going out w/ DH or somewhere special, since masks can now be removed in restaurants and around my family, I've added back my tinted moisturizer and minimal eye makeup (shadow and liner). That IS my full everyday face.

I've never worn a full face makeup. A little foundation, blush and maybe some mascara. That's it. If I'm hanging around the house or going to the gym I don't wear anything but moisturizer. If I plan on stopping somewhere afterwards I put on a bit. More places don't require a mask anymore so I don't want to frighten young children and animals.

I've been wearing a full face regardless of masks. The only time I don't wear a full face is when I don't feel like it or don't have time.
