When I was working we would have to put on & take off a surgical mask several times a day. My MU would rub off on the masks so I just started going to work without MU & sleeping 15 min longer in the morning. So now that I'm retired I only wear MU when I am going somewhere, but daily around the house I do not. Also, when we can we swim daily so there is no reason to waste MU putting it on and then going swimming. Normally, I probably only wear MU one or two days a week.

I go without make up about 3/4 of the time. When I do go out, I put very little make up on, my bb cream, blush and ALWAYS do my eyebrows, maybe a touch of eyeliner. Thats just for errands. If I am going out socially, then I put a full face on. Otherwise I am naked and NOT afraid to go without.

I absolutely have to have mascara and eyebrow pencil. The rest is depending on where I'm going. I guess I don't worry about impressing the post office or grocery store people and I'm usually in a hurry to get going. Dress up occasions will get more effort out of me to do a full face and cover the sun spots and redness. I live in a really casual rural area where some people show up at the few white table cloth restaurants looking like they just fell out of bed.

Yes, I do. I wear very little make-up during the week because I work in a corporate environment, but on the weekends I don't wear any make-up at all. The only exception is if I am going to dinner or doing something special. Otherwise, nothing on my face.

For errands,I will use a tinted moisturizer, some brow mascara, blush and lip color.
For going to work, out to dinner etc, I do the whole thing. I am an eyeshadow fanatic and I take great pleasure in really amping up my eyes.
I have eyelash extensions which simplifies my routine considerably. I look finshed even when I'm not wearing other makeup.
If I could afford them, I would get eyebrow extensions for the same reason.

I retired on July 1. It has been a joy to cut back on the daily makeup grind. I always fill in my brows, use a little concealer under my eyes and just a swipe of lip color. I do take good care of my skin which helps me feel confident.

I have fair skin and platinum hair. Without some kind of make up I look like a ghost ! So my daily look is something like IT CC Cream , then I fill in my platinumish brows with a pencil and add a pinkish rosy lipstick. Thats my bare minimum. If I need more I add a cream blush and some Revlon masscara. I'm more of a fanatic about skincare and keep my make up natural and easy. I just turned 65 and when I see women over 50 with a full face of heavy make up grocery shopping I cringe!

Yes.
I haven't done full make up in years.
I had a family reunion last month & the only thing I wore was bronze liner, clear mascara, & sheer lipstick. It was also very hot & humid, so it didn't take long for everything to disappear. My sister, who is 8 years younger, does not wear make up. Nothing. Nor does she use any skin care products.
I've gone so long without wearing make up that I don't look like myself if I do.
I like my "bare" face.

Yes I do. I always wear make-up to work and going out socially.
If I am not doing either of those, chances are, I have no make-up on at all. Around the house, absolutely nothing. Going to run errands, I'll slap some gloss on.

i can't stand'foundation and have never worn that either.
When I am going formal, I wear eye makeup, but I haven"t been formal for a while.
i can't remember the last time I put any makeup on.
Ask me about earrings.. I NEVER go out without them.
Yes, earrings. Don't feel "dresssed" without them & since I have hundreds of earrings, I don't have enough ears or years to wear them only occasionally.
