What make up do you wear (if any) on a normal day?

[Lisarocket]

I haven't worn any makeup for years. I stopped wearing it in my early 20's and i don't miss it at all. It feels unnatural like a mask or something.

 

[Sweaty Betty]

concealer, white eyeliner, blush an clear lip gloss!

 

[oddworld]

For work , face powder , mascara , eyebrow pencil , bronzer and neutral lipgloss.

Evenings out , Glam it up

 

[sheothebudworths]

None

 

[wtfftw]

that's how I fgeel about lipstick and foundation, I hate the feel of it on my face. I do wear eye make-up if I am not going to the gym, and sometimes a bit of blusher but that's about it.

Some of the chav birds around here, their make-up look like it's been put on with a trowel.

Lol! Get some!
Tis the season to indulge!

Yes do! I love it. My sister bought me the Bad Gal Blue Benefit mascara which I was v wary of but she told me it was meant to brighten eyes. Also, she got me 'Touch me and try to leave' body lotion. Next time I saw the Boy of the Moment, he said 'your eyes look especially blue today' and, later 'you feel lovely'. Rock. Benefit makes men love you. Yes.

 

[Scarlette]

benefit mascara is rubbish tho - really, really smudgy.

I love it. Love it.

 

[spanglechick]

I love it. Love it.

weirdo wrong'un

 

[Scarlette]

I just bought mucho cheap and sparkly make up for Saturday night and all Saturday nights to come. Am v excited. Also bright bright red lipstick which will not suit me, probably, but WILL go with new leather gloves. EEEK. Excited.

 

[Geri]

Face powder, blusher, mascara.

 

[wtfftw]

Bright red lipstick for the win!

 

[Roadkill]

I don't, as a general rule.

I used to refuse to leave the house without at the very least eyeliner, mascara and powder. Preferably there would be foundation in the mix too.

Then one day I realised I was a prick and stopped wearing it altogether

I had something similar with aftershave, a few years ago. I wore way too much of the stuff, before I started wondering what the point was. These days, I might put on a little if I'm going out but only once in a blue moon.

I have taken to wearing a bit of eyeliner when out clubbing, though.

I wear nothing to work and when just bimbling about but when I go 'out' I love to wear make up . I no longer wear foundation but will put on something such as Benefit Hollywood Glow. I like the smouldering eyes look and think I do that fairly well.

I used to wear foundation to hide my freckles but now I want them out glowing for the world to see...

 

[rennie]

none.

 

[foo]

hardly any on a normal day, usually just eye stuff.

when i go out i try harder.

 

[twisted_angel]

Usually just mascara and lipgloss, if im going out then tinted moisturiser or powder, eye liner and shadow, blusher and lipstick.
I have been trying bolder colours with the shadows recently but not sure about them as i usually stick to neutrals and with dark shadows my eyes lose the blue and look very dark

 

[butterfly child]

Normal day - none.

Special occasions - maybe a bit of lippy, and something to make my skin shimmery.

 

[Looby]

Shine free base, foundation, concealer, loose powder, mousse bronzer, eye shadow, eye liner, mascara and vaseline or a bit of gloss on my lips.

I've got a gorgeous new bright pink shadow from Rimmel but I didn't realise how bright it was until I looked in the mirror at work, it wasn't really appropriate.

 

[softybabe]

Indoors or just to local shops = none
Work, outings etc = eyeliner, eye brow pencil and lippy I havent got the patience for anything more ...oh but i always take my anti shine pressed powder with me

 

[MsShirlLaverne]

Ultra-glo in winter but not summer, black or blue eyeliner, purple mascara, bit of lip gloss. All day every day.

 

[Thora]

Nothing really on a normal day, expect a bit of translucent powder if I'm looking shiny.

On a night out I stretch to eyeliner, sometimes mascara, and maybe twice a year lipstick

 

[Ms T]

Until recently, I didn't bother most of the time.

But now I've really got into make-up because I've realised it makes me look tons better. So now I wear Benefit tinted moisturiser, mineral powder, concealer because I have terrible shadows under my eyes , an eye base from Laura Mercier which is fab, mascara, blusher and lipstick/lip gloss.

 

[moomoo]

Just mascara and sometimes eyeliner on a normal day. The lot if it's a very special occasion.

 

[sojourner]

Neutral tones soj?


Oh and can I add a "why?" to the top post?

Soz, only just seen this. Am not here often lately

Yeh, neutral.

 

[beeboo]

Until recently, I didn't bother most of the time.

But now I've really got into make-up.

I'm going the other way - I used to be a "never leave the house without it" type and will now quite happily spend the day in the office with a naked face, which would have been unthinkable a few years ago.

Combination of having better skin so not having to compensate for a face of zits and generally being more confident.

However, on a normal work day when I make the effort:

-Benefit "Some Kind of Gorgeous" as a base
-a L'Oreal cheapy version of Touche Eclat
-Some blush (just got a Bobbi Brown sample which is great)
-Eyebrow pencil
-Mascara

I don't bother with the base in summer. I add a bit of eyeshadow if I'm doing the job properly - smudge of brownish shadow round the eye and creamy/shimmery bit in the inside corners. However usually I do it in 2 mins on the train.

 

[vauxhallmum]

I wear a sodding truckload of the stuff
This is mainly because I've got nasty threadveins all over my face and if I don't cover the bastards up I look like a jakey suffering from scarlet fever
