Opinion please: woman who dont wear make up daily?

Question

Im 22, and i work in an office. I never dress up, or wear makeup to work, but i wear it when i go out to bars and clubs

is it weird???? am i alone??

Answer 1

I not sure of the question but I think that's great! People shouldn't wear make-up all the time. And I think its fantastic that your comfortable in your own skin.

Answer 2

You are not weird, nor alone--I am an occasional wearer of make-up as well. And I know a lot of women who don't wear a lot of make- up, too.

My mom had sensitive skin and didn't wear make-up except for lipstick and mascara. At weddings, she would add eye shadow. But she didn't need anything to balance her skin tone. Her eyebrows were always shaped well and she did pay attention to her appearance. She worked in an office for years.

I never learned how to apply make up from my mom; I learned from my sisters who wear it all the time. They used to have the huge make -up cases that look like tackle boxes.

The real question is, what do you think? Do others in your office dress up? If they do, maybe try to blend in a little and appear more professional if you want to be taken more seriously. Upgrade the wardrobe a notch without getting a lot of flash or without losing your youthfulness either. If there is a co-worker you trust to go shopping with and give you good advice, ask him or her. Make- up at work is more natural than when you go out, so less is more.

You'll be able to work it out, finding something that suits you the best. I guess it will just take some time! It should be fun, because you are looking at what expresses yourself the best.

Answer 3

It can hurt your credibility if other people in your office are dressed professionally. It can seem unpolished.

Unless you work in a warehouse, or other industrial type position I would wear something.

Try this, less than 5 mins: (brands I use)
Powder foundation: "Physicians formula mineral wear".
Powder Blush: "Jane cosmetics"
Powder Eye Shadow: "Cover Girl" (2 or 3 shades in compact)
Sheer lipstick: Neutrogena
Or long wear lipstick: Max Factor

If you want to does a little more curl your eye lashes
Plus eye liner: cover girl

Pretty much everyone can wear either Plums or Earth tones. Pick one color scheme and put it plus you applicators in a cheapie clear plastic makeup bag.

Plus always wear your hair up at work. When you wear it down they will think you are younger than you are. That makes them think "Girl" not "Woman". Don't wear "going out" make up or clothes to work either. That is like career suicide. Always dress one level higher than you are at.

Good Luck.

if u work in a office u should look presentable i used to wear make up everyday then i got married and had kids i just don't have time anymore to wear it but when i go to work which is only on the weekends i do wear make up because iam not at home iam out in public.

Answer 5

No, that isn't that big of a deal... But I'd say keep your club/bar makeup for clubs and bars... But you should bring some more subtle makeup to put on for work! It will make it less wierd! :)

Answer 6

It is not weird, but try to dress cute, but comfortable. I am not the make up kind of girl, but lip gloss 24/7 is a must, but when I go out I put a little make up on.

Answer 7

its not weird!! its fine..
that is okay for now.. now wearing a lot of make up is great because you don't get wrinkles.. just see its going to pay off when your 30 or 40, and have no wrinkles!! but u may want to just use some mascara, or eyeliner.. i think eyes are the most important place to wear make-up...also clinique products are make of all natural materials, so it doesn't mess up your skin.. using clinique blush or foundation once in a while is great..

do not overdo your make-up tho! do wut u think is right!

well GOOD LUCK!! i hope i help!

Answer 8

I'm 35 and I've never worn makeup in my life, except on one occasion, that was my first wedding. I can't stand the nasty stuff. I think it makes women look like clowns, personally.

And no, you're not alone. I know of many many thousands of women who do not wear makeup out of religious conviction alone.

Answer 9

I dont wear it to work everyday either.. I work in the nursing department at a nursing home..
I always wear it when I go out.. I just do not se the point in constantly wearing it..

Answer 10

I don't were makeup to work everyday either. I don't think it is weird or anything unusual for a woman to do.
