Answer:

I think I"m kind of vain in a weird way. I don't like to wear make-up or dress up on a daily basis because I like the compliments I get when I do. I guess I like to surprise people.

Answer:

I don't necessarily care about what others think, but I know I feel better when I have some makeup on. I don't put on "the works" every day, but I definitely need my undereye concealer, some blush, and lip gloss on a daily basis.

Answer:

I've worn makeup since I was 13 years old. About 10 years ago, my skin became really really sensitive, and I had to stop wearing makeup daily because my skin seemed worse when I kept it covered all day. It took some getting used to, some time to adjust to seeing my face "natural" but after a few weeks, just wearing moisturizer with a high SPF sunscreen made my skin look pretty amazing and clear. Now I only wear makeup when I feel I need it according to the situation.

Answer:

If i'm not feeling 100% putting on a bit of makeup makes me feel a bit better about myself . Even if its some mascara and a little lippy :)
