Well, if i'm not leaving the house over the weekend then I won't wear any.
Daily I use:
Max Factor colour match foundation.
Either No & bronzing balls or a translucentpowder over the top of the foundation (Depends on tan status)
Browny/goldy/peachy/olivey coloured eyeshadows all blended in (was in a kit I had for last Xmas from Boots but not one of their usual makes)
The browny eyeshadow as an eyeliner
Whichever mascara I fancy at the time, at the min it is a no7 one.
If I use blusher I have an Elizabeth Arden one, or if I have a tan, I use a bit more of the bronzer.8 months to go till end of the IVA :j:rotfl::T0 -
I'm the same as Joesaunt, if I'm not leaving the house then my make-up bag stays in the drawer.
Don't wear foundation - I'm lucky to have even skintone.
Dab of Rimmel pinky shade blusher.
Eyeshadow - matched to whatever clothes I'm wearing.
Eyeliner - either Max Factor or the darkest eyeshadow I've used.
Mascara - Barbara Daly black or brown.
My eyes are green so I can get away with wearing all sorts of colours - green, brown, grey, purple, turquoise, blue.
I also change my nail polish every day - today I've got chocolate brown.Stone walls do not a prison make, nor iron bars a cage.0 -

Foundation - Revlon Colourstay
Powder - very light dusting of Avon anew or EL doublewear
Blusher - Varied depnding on what look I'm doing that day

Eyes - Neutral mixed with white eyeliner on inner rim only, dont like colour or darkness on my eyes atm
Lash extensions - bought online
Eyebrows - Collection 2000 taupe brow pencil
Lips - Mac lipglass in light pink
Also my fake tan that I do twice a week or so deserves a mention although I dont use this on my face, my daily skincare routine is a whole other post;)Thank you for this site MartinThe time for change has comeGood luck for the future0 -

Maybe Eyeshadow - Urban Decay
Lips - Can vary from tinted lip balm like Benetint, to much more "done" lipstick.

All I wear during the day is Lily Lolo transparant finishing powder because I'm so oily, I line my eyes using a black eyeshadow - currently Dr Haushcka and I use a Burts Bees tinted lipbalm. I might add eyeshadow for a night out but that's it.
I do wear a sunscreen each day though which might add something, currently using Marie Veronique's Kid Safe Sunscreen SPF25 which is meant to be colourless0 -
I asked exactly the same some months ago, if you search a bit you might find the post with more useful answers, i think it was called "Do you wear make up every day"
About me, I use only tinted moisturizerd. I only apply make-up on weekends if I go out, I hate being a slave to make-up!! (I used to be many years ago...)0 -
