What's wrong with your own beautiful, natural skin tone?

I don't understand the faux tan craze. A couple of hosts slather it on. They look like old, sun beaten, wooden tables. There is nothing prettier than your own natural skin tone. All you need is SPF lotion.

Nothing is wrong with it. But most women wear makeup of some type that they feel enhances and improves what they've already got. Do you wear any lip gloss, lipstick, etc on your lips? If so, I have to ask "What's wrong with your natural lip tone?"

Do you wear mascara? If so..."what's wrong with your natural lash length?" If you don't wear any cosmetics...good for you...my sister doesn't and she always looks nice.

It's a personal choice. I don't criticize anyone who does, or doesn't.

I don't put fox tan on my face---just make-up---I put fox tan on my legs and arms---I am SUPER pale---sometimes I go out sans make-up and people ask if I'm all right.

What looks appealing to one is unattractive to another.

My question is why do we women feel the need to apply skin colored liquid on our faces. Once upon a time women used a powder compact and a lipstick and that was makeup.

I do use foundation but not every day. Just curious.

I use tinted moisturizer with an spf something to protect my fair skin from sun damage. Suntans don't appeal to me but I don't fault those for whom they do appeal.

I wouldn't use liquid makeup at all if it weren't for broken caps and redness and other issues like this. I am very fair and don't use makeup to try to change the color of my complexion. If I had really good skin, I wouldn't use makeup. I'd probably use a dab of powder to just cut the shine. I envy people with good even skin-tone.

I think people who have natural tans and don't have to struggle to get them, look beautiful. I envy those who are able to acquire a nice golden glow to their arms and legs. It's lovely.

I, however, cannot, and am very fair. I have accepted it,and that is that.

I have no problem with anyone who wants to use faux tanning. I have done it in the past. Although I think it is a pain to mess with! ${#emotions_dlg.ohmy}$

I used to use a self tanner on my chest, arms and legs, but was never crazy about the results and it was a pain to do. I have finally decided that I am ok with my natural color. I do wear foundation, but not everyday, only if I am going out. I have broken caps also. I did discover Sally Hansen air brush make-up for legs and I really like that. They don't look tanned just evens out the my skin tone and no smell. I really don't see too many people sporting a tan now a days. Just the younger girls.
