How do you feel about women that's don't wear Make-up ?

[flutterby1]

Just wondering what your true JUDGY thoughts are? I don't wear makeup often I'm in mid forties. How am I perceived? Lazy? Frumpy? Not caring? Boring? Can't be bothered to make an effort for others ? Or confident ? Perceived as being ' pretty enough' ?

Only wear light make up on a big night out, if at all. Used to do the full woks when younger. I'm lucky as I've always had good skin (in part genes and part I've looked after it since I was about 14) which helps.

I don't think I notice whether other women are wearing make-up (unless they're wearing a lot I guess). I'm an eyeliner and lipstick girl myself - cba with all the layer stuff

It’s nice that there are so many non-judgemental people on this thread. I have a skin condition that affects my face so I almost always wear makeup to cover it up. You would be amazed at how many people comment- so rude! I find myself having to explain it, wish I could tell them to F off.
however, I think I would probably wear makeup most of the time anyway. I don’t wear very much, keep it quite natural, but in the same way that I style my hair and iron my clothes and like to make an effort to enhance my appearance. I work in a creative field and we all take care of how we look. I style up my office and home in a similar way as making things look nice makes me happy!

Their face - not mine - their choice

Rosacea lady here. I work from home so don't wear make up day to day, but when I go out I wear foundation to even up the redness. When I worked in the office, virtually none of the women wore make up, apart from a couple of young women who were very full on with contouring etc. I think it's up to the individual. I don't judge either way.

One person’s ‘sloppy’ is another’s ‘comfortable’.

Why make mean judgements at all?

Your insecurities aren’t going to go away by judging others and bringing them down. Being mean about others doesn’t lift you up, solve your problems or make you more confident. People who are secure and comfortable with their own choices don’t usually feel the need to judge others negatively.

If you are a person that judges others in this way then work on yourself.

What?!

Why would that question be any more acceptable?
It's just as judgmental.

I don't think much about it, and doubt I even notice tbh.

I enjoy wearing makeup myself, but don't wear it everyday. If I go out somewhere nice I'll do a full face, but day to day I either wear minimal natural makeup or go without. I'm more likely to notice someone plastered in heavy makeup, and probably judge them a little bit. Not in a horrible way, but I'll often assume that they lack self confidence and feel a bit sorry for them.

I can't be bothered wearing any slap these days so I definitely wouldn't be judging another woman for her choices either.

I hardly ever wear make up, I’m not really bothered what people think to be honest! I definitely prefer having more time in bed 😂 also why my hair is always tied back 🙈

I just think good for you / don't really care.

I do judge people who buy brands that are tested on animals.

Honestly, I despair.

I wouldn't notice.

I don't wear make up but I don't think anyone really notices because I use a wheelchair and they usually see the wheelchair first.

I enjoy make-up

I wouldn't notice if anyone else was or wasn't wearing it and I certainly wouldn't make a judgement about tj as person either way.

I wonder if this is going to head in a "not like other girls" direction!

OP don't overestimate how much time we all spend thinking about other people!

I'm early 40s, never wear makeup, and I don't care at all what other people think about it. It's my face, it looks how it looks.

I don't normally notice whether anyone else is wearing makeup, unless it's very obvious or out of place (eg, full night out style makeup in a casual office).

I mean I don't care each to their own.

Although I do think a combination of no make up, old tired clothes, greying hair etc in your 40s is frumpy. I wouldn't want to look like that.

But I mean what other people do is none of my business

I'm in my 50s and don't wear make-up. I like seeing other women without it.

I don't notice zero make up either. And most people don't since they (me) are too busy thinking about ourselves!

Minimalist here. Only do something "make up" wise if exiting the door to face the public ha ha. A quick brush of bare minerals powder, a dab of blush, and a swipe of lip balm that has a bit of colour to it. Then out the door I go.

I do however notice the caterpillar brows, the massive false eyelashes and the sculpted contoured look. How do these people find the time for such artistry!

I don’t wear make up. I’ve never given it a second thought about what people think

I genuinely do not care - each to their own.

I love makeup, and won't even answer the door without any make up on but if you don't wear any then fair enough 😊

My younger sister (just in her 20s) once announced that she thought I was vain as I don’t wear any make up. As in that I don’t think I need to. When in reality I’m a single mum to 4 kids, 2 with disabilities, and I’m lucky if I get 2 minutes to brush my teeth in the morning 😅

I notice if someone is wearing particularly nice or cool make-up. But otherwise I don't really pay attention. And I say that as someone who wears make-up every day (because I enjoy doing it).

Following for comments as I don’t wear it…exceptions are a rare night out and occasionally when I’m meeting clients or in the office (I wfh)

Genuinely don't have thoughts about whether another woman is wearing make up (I am early forties, wear make up when I'm in the office but wfh days I don't, and then weekends depends whether we're doing something 'nice' or not - but that's all just because I enjoy make up, not because I feel l need to, so equally don't have any thoughts about what other women do or don't do in terms of make up (caveat - I DO notice and slightly judge when someone has really plastered it on but it's mainly a curiosity thing, as I am interested in make up)).
