I usually wear makeup and yes, I do all that "girly-girl" stuff. But if a person expects me to look overly glamorous after I've been running or shooting baskets, they've got another thing coming to them.

I swear by lip balm, and it's my only cosmetic. If it takes more than 5 minutes to do something to my hair, it's not worth it. I have better things to do with my time than primping and preening.

I put a little of both because I dont wear much make up at all, and when I do, its so little, that I still look natural. So I prefer the natural look, but sometimes I use make up to make myself look nicer, but you cant tell Im wearing any.

For myself, I prefer natural. I little mascara, blush, lipbalm, run a comb through my hair, bam, I'm done.

But I really find myself drawn to women who are just over the top, with lots of makeup, the long nails, complicated hair, the whole thing. I love looking at women like that!

Natural is OK, but without a whole lotta chemicals, westerners soon look like crap. Greasy hair and zits doesn't look good.

I don't know...I wear more make-up than most people my age, but I don't exactly look like Christina Aguilera. I like to look nice, and I like my make-up to look natural and pretty, not over-done and trashy.

Doesn't matter to me. I am pretty natural, yet I wear a small amount of make up, guess it's more a mental thing.

It's fine to get a little extra help. I wear makeup and have had different things done to my hair and nails. Sometimes the perms, hair color, etc. have been just an attempt to improve my appearance, but sometimes they have been just for fun, or just for any kind of CHANGE.

Natural looks fine in the vast majority of cases. Truth be told, most people look pretty good. (yes, thats a period). What comes to my mind is make-up, but on some level I am vaguely aware that you could be meaning other things too...

I, personally, don't wear any make-up at all. If an extremely special occasion presents itself I'll dust my face with baby powder to make my skin look smoother and sometimes put vaseline on my lips. I don't have any preference as to what other other people wear but excessive gaudy colour is more extreme than I like.

On me, just the natural look. But I don't object to others wanting to wear a bit of make up or whatever. I think people who wear lots of make up and thick foundation look like silly, tarty, slappers. It looks a bit disgusting......... And why wear lipstick that's going to end up all over your teeth, or your glass or your SO?!

(I can't believe slappers isn't in the dictionary!)

Alittle make-up and a simple yet attractive hairstyle are all you really need to look good. And good posture. To much make-up look really bad and I often find myself thinking that they must look horrible under neath all that.

Then if it could have been so helpful why did you ignore other peoples suggestions in qualification? click advanced stats to see them.

It really amaze me how some of you do all that crying and complaining at this point. It's to late now, obviously it was okay for some. So next time you can create another survey similar to this, and do it the way that you want. Hey, it may do better, who cares. However, this is my survey, my idea, with the help of others. I don't particularly care for all of your surveys "boogers". I thought that was kinda dumb, but again that's my opinion. Others might think differently. That's what is good about this site, you can create surveys that "you" like.

I go back and forth. I haven't touched my hair in a couple years, but tonight I think I'm going turquoise and violet. I don't try to mask scars, altough mine have already pretty much gone away. they were sort of from another life.

The problem wasnt with the subject of the survey it was with the limited options. You as a creator should at least look at your survey while in qualification to see what people said about it. It is obvious that you didn't do so.

I'm kind of a hypocrite on this subject. I never wear makeup and really prefer a natural look for other women, too, and I think the whole cosmetic industry is pretty much a big ripoff. But I do think makeup can really enhance a person's beauty and be really sexy. I guess I think it's a shame that so many women won't leave the house without it. I think it would be better saved for special occasions.

Apparently she was. But I saw those photos. I wouldn't deny make up, but I still claim you are one one of those people gorgeous without it.

Oh, I don't know. Different people see and like different things. I know people who have said I still look good without make up, but I don't agree. And besides that, I like make up and have fun with it, and I don't think I'm that pretty. I'm just average.

I think you should have fun with make up, just keep in mind that if it could be said that some people need it and some don't, you are certainly one who doesn't. There are places like fairbanks, alaska where make up is rarely seen. and then there are places like LA where I live, where you can get every color of nail polish or mascara imaginable.
Jemmy
(reply to Kristal_Rose) posted 7-May-2001 8:18pm  
Well, I actually don't like colored mascara, but I get your point. Does anyone really "need" make up? It's more helpful to some people than others, but I don't really know. A teacher I had spent two years trying to convince me that I didn't need make up. But that's a long story.

Everyone has the need to want to be better. I take showers, cut my hair, brush my teethe, so I do the bare minimum. I also were a baseball cap and sunglasses sometimes, and were nice enough clothes so that I don't look like I live under a bridge (no offense)

Everyone can, but it requires changing your wardrobe (and possibly hair) and countenace as well.
You could do 'Creature from the black lagoon', 'Floozie', 'Cow girl', 'Gypsy', 'Lawyer', in any palette you wanted. You have to have the perception that goes with the look or it will not fit.

HA,ha,,ha,ha, I don't think I possess that kind of perception of color scheme like you do.My perception is more one dimensional.Whereas yours is multi level.
