I wear a full face to work... cheers me up...and well spend majority of my tim at work..so why not!!
Dramatic eye make up, usually just mineral base..and nude lips... just play up the eyes normally.OU Law studentMay Grocery challenge£30/ £110 -
Full face, every day, no matter what. And a full face for me equals:
Foundation
Under eye concealer
Blemish concealer
Powder
Blusher
Eyeshadow
Eyeliner
Mascara
Lip balm
All natural looking and not heavy, but still. It adds 20 mins to my morning routine and I wish I didn't have to wear it.0 -

I usually wear a little bit of foundation to cover any spotty bits and some mascara - that's it. I usually leave the house too early to be able to open my eyes enough to see any more than that
If I'm more awake than usual or know we have important visitors I'll put on a little brown eyeliner and some neutral eyeshadow, but rarely any more than that. I don't even wear nail polish!

I barely wear it at all, only on special occasions and nights out. I'm sure it's contributed to my skin (spot-free since forever, never had acne touch wood)** Total debt: £6950.82 ± May NSDs 1/10 **** Fat Bum Shrinking: -7/56lbs **

I do it all because I'm scared.

I always wear make up to work. I work in a fairly posh shop and just don't think it looks very proffesional rolling in bare faced. I love make up and wear it every time I leave the house!'The road to a friends house is never long'0

Always, and always with the full face. I'm known to be glamorous but the truth is my skin is very oily and by mid afternoon it looks dreadful slick without makeup, even worse if it is cold because it starts to look grey and patchy in tone. My confidence would plummet if I was constantly bothered what I look like, I leave the house looking good and thats the way it stays until I wash it off at night. Nothing will convince me to adopt a natural look when even my Mum tells me that I look like something from beyond the grave without it.Value-for-money-for-me-puhleeze!

nope, never wear it to work
i love make up but only ever wear it when i'm off out. the only time i did wear it every day was when i was depressed as it felt like a mask and i felt it stopped people seeing the real me iykwim'We're not here for a long time, we're here for a good time0 -
I wont leave the house without make up on!
To work i wear mac studio fix fluid, mac mineralize skin finish, mac pink swoon blush, and cover girl lash blast mascara.
When going out with friends wtc, the same but i use dollymix blush and eyeshadow and liner as well0 -
I wear my usual amount. Which is quite a lot by most people's standards. I think the problem is I've worn so much for so long I'd feel naked without it, and people will always comment on how different (bad!) I look without any. I use powder, blusher, eyeliner, mascara and lippie. I look ill without powder and blush, and I always do a 'cat-eye' flick as I think it makes my eyes look better. I do wear a more neutral lipstick though.
If I was going out for a night on the town I'd add eyeliner or eyeshadow maybe- possibly foundation as well if my skin needed it. Then again I might not as all I'm already aware I wear too much by far
Mind you it only takes me 5 minutes to do. 0
