It doesn't refer to holding any position you have to the degree of fanaticism or in 100% of every similar situation. <br /><br />Thought I would share... I usually wear light makeup but on my wedding day it was done professionally and was heavy. My maid of honor thought I was the prettiest bride she had ever seen (in reality, that is what I have thought about every bride on their wedding day!)....but my husband hardly recognized me!!! Poor guy had to exchange vows with a stranger. LOL. In the photos, there is an orange glow to the foundation which I think ruined those photos. I think it is brilliant that you were yourself on your wedding day!Analyze Anoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7545545571343273883.post-88182744543955761112014-06-27T12:35:42.098-04:002014-06-27T12:35:42.098-04:00I love that you have actual reasons not to wear ma...I love that you have actual reasons not to wear makeup. I don't wear it that often, but it's because I'm lazy, pure and simple. :)Belle Viergehttp://www.findingmyvirginity.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7545545571343273883.post-11652892038993176952014-05-10T16:53:19.827-04:002014-05-10T16:53:19.827-04:00I wish I understood why this is an issue.. by thes...I wish I understood why this is an issue.. by these questions alone it seems people equate drawing on your face to be the same as wearing clothing.. that's just weird. <br /><br />I am allergic to make up, so I never got into it during those formative years when young girls learn to apply it.. when new hypoallergenic lines came out, I thought I'd try them, but by then it seemed like a complete and utter waste to me.. pretty much akin to washing drying and ironing your clothes every day before you wear them.. completely unnecessary and a waste of time.<br /><br />I wore a wee bit of make up on my wedding for the simple fact that I knew photos would be taken of me, and I didn't want a shiny face and I wanted my eyebrows to show up (they are very light in color)Connie KittyBlognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7545545571343273883.post-4362077171354396752014-05-01T18:01:12.020-04:002014-05-01T18:01:12.020-04:00Yay for not wearing makeup.

I don't wear it either. <br />I feel that girls that do are lying because it's not how they really look. Or like you said: have self-esteem issues. I don't care if girls do but that's my opinion and the biggest reason I don't.Cody Dollhttp://catchingcodyk.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7545545571343273883.post-48074475889465234932014-05-01T10:21:46.113-04:002014-05-01T10:21:46.113-04:00Wearning make-up - or not wearing it - should be a...Wearning make-up - or not wearing it - should be a no pressure thing. I don't ever want to feel like I have to wear it in order to look my best. There are many days when I make the choice not to wear make-up. I want my daughters to see that it is not a requirement, that it's something you choose.Sybilnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7545545571343273883.post-38494600048363297052014-05-01T09:46:50.052-04:002014-05-01T09:46:50.052-04:00Have you heard of the EWG: http://www.ewg.org/skin...Have you heard of the EWG: http://www.ewg.org/skindeep/ <br /><br /><br />This website breaks down the components of every makeup and beauty product from facewash to concealer and rates it by toxicity level. They also post everything contained in the product and explain what some of the unpronounceable ingredients are. It's kinda confusing to navigate at first, but I use it before I buy something. You'd be surprised what it says!Carolynnhttp://kitty-ears.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7545545571343273883.post-37975766558449971432014-05-01T09:45:48.158-04:002014-05-01T09:45:48.158-04:00nice post and I can definitely relate!

I wear very minimal make up on daily basis because I feel that I'd rather people think I'm okay plainish looking and then the day I decide to actualyl dress up I wow people rather than like some of the other girls I know who dolls up every day and the one day they feel lazy that they decide not to wear make up people look at them and think... IS THIS THE SAME PERSON. for me it's a lazy thing and I am personally comfortable not "looking the best" everyday and it is not in others place to tell me how I ought to lookPopChampagnenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7545545571343273883.post-12224742307741540352014-05-01T09:32:52.155-04:002014-05-01T09:32:52.155-04:00I don't wear make-up now either, but the funny...I don't wear make-up now either, but the funny thing is, I'm indebted to make-up for being the reason why I don't wear it! Before I started, I knew I was ugly. People didn't think I was pretty. I longed to be beautiful. By applying make-up I learned I had pretty features and started carrying myself differently. I *knew* I was pretty. One day when I was in a hurry and didn't put on make-up, one guy commented, "Are you wearing make-up today? I can never tell anymore" and I realized it was all in the way I carried myself. Bye-bye extra 10 minutes of primp time!<br /><br /><br /><br />P.S. You're beautiful and being on GMA must have been such a fun experience! I wish I hadn't worn make-up on my wedding day.... it was the first time my husband had ever seen me with make-up! (He didn't even notice I had any until after the ceremony) But when your mother insists...threatens....hahaJM MacFnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7545545571343273883.post-32202775918130663842014-04-30T09:52:55.497-04:002014-04-30T09:52:55.497-04:00I believe it's very important not to apply che...I believe it's very important not to apply chemicals on your body, especially the skin. If women apply makeup EVERYDAY that's constant exposure to those checmicals. I'm sure they affect the endocrine system of the human body. <br />I do however, am ok with make up application, but if anyone is to purchase any kind of make up it should be the best quality out there, perhaps the most expensive too :) I know I don't hold back on Rachel's make up because I know it goes a long way.Angel G.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7545545571343273883.post-30179166600788783952014-04-30T07:09:07.932-04:002014-04-30T07:09:07.932-04:00I can definitely relate to your college experience...I can definitely relate to your college experience, but for me it was beauty school that made me start wearing makeup less than I ever had before, because of how attached I saw girls get to their makeup and how even though they were only 17 or 18 they wouldn't dare let anyone see them without it. And the chemical issue is definitely real. I like wearing something on my lips the most and I've had some success at least finding petroleum free lip products. I do break out my blue eyeliner on occasion and I'm sure it's not healthy, but it brings me a smile! :)Rachel Ghttp://www.therandomwritings.com/noreply@blogger.com
