Okay, but seriously. Why do people care about how much or how little makeup you wear? This has a lot to do with my topic, “makeup”, but this issue just seems to always spark my thoughts to runneth over. I feel like you can’t win. If you don’t wear makeup you look like a person who is dying and if you do wear makeup you are “fake”. You just can’t win over some people. Not to mention, “are you the one that is applying my makeup or buying my makeup or having to wear my makeup?” Then STFU! I believe that you should do you. If you want to cake makeup onto your face to where you can scrape your finger through it at the end of the day, so be it. But if you also want to let your face be free and naked with nothing then you should do that too. Makeup doesn’t define who I am but it sure as hell makes me look a lot more alive. I also take into consideration the fact that someone like me who loves makeup is artsy. I grew up loving colors, drawing, pictures, and fashion. It’s in my blood to stand out and be unique. I love the different types of makeup and the different ways to apply it. I also love the different looks that makeup can make. The only problem is that once you start wearing makeup on an every day basis, that’s when not wearing makeup can be tough. I have tried this before and it sucks. I wear makeup all the time and then one day I decide not to wear any and people are passing “Get Well” cards over my way.  The only thing that scares me is I don’t want my daughter to think that wearing makeup or not wearing makeup is good or bad, which is what society is making this out to be. I just hope that she will do whatever makes her happy as a woman. Whether she wears makeup or not, I just hope that she does it for the right reasons and not what society thinks she should do as a person. Again, as stated above, you cannot win. All you can do is do what you want to do and make yourself happy.
