For work (also NHS patient facing role) I enhance (as in draw in a pair ) my eyebrows with a ybf brow pencil.

IRL, Benefit They're Real mascara, eyelash curlers

Bloody hell - are you all bank robbers that you have to hide behind a mask every day.

Often add in some eyeliner too.

pressone since my late 20's have worn Touche Eclat or similar to hide dark circles and ramped up foundation etc these days as my skin (tired etc) needs it - blusher, mascara minimum.

I wish I could get away with less - and when Dior did a fab luminous foundation (sheer coverage) the utter utter bastards (MN phrase there) discontinued it! cue much howling from MU experts the world over!

No mascara because eyelashes are false

phew

Very rarely do any eye make up on a day to day basis as I have naturally dark lashes/strong brows, plus wear glasses. So the usual is:

• Nuxe Creme Fraiche de Beaute
• Some kind of light foundation/tinted moisturizer (currently liking the new Bare Minerals Complexion Perfector)
• Bit of Nars concealer if am blotchy
• Blush (Nars Unlawful is current fave)
• One of my 8,0000000 lipsticks

If I am feeling fancier I will also use

• Highlighter (the Clinique chubby stick one is good)
• Cream shadow/eye base (Origins cream shadow)
• Chunky eye pencil (Smashbox)
• Mascara (think current one is Origins as well. I cannot get excited by mascara.)

It's a makeup thread pressone why bother posting a shitty comment?

Scoose - I think the fact that you have assumed my humorous comment is "shitty" is your issue not mine,

If anyone thought I really was accusing you of being criminals please be assured I was not.

However I truly do not understand why people wear so much make up that they completely change the way they look (unless they are in a play or something).

I truly don't understand it - please explain why it is necessary/desirable/whatever.

Quite

My comment was in response to your bank robber post,I also thought it was a shitty comment.

Make up is fun, it enhances your best bits and hides your flaws, what's not to like?

Simple moisturiser
Maybelline Great Lash Mascara
Collection 2000 felt tip eyeliner (MN recommendation and it is absolutely amazing and only £2.99!)
Rimmel 25 hour primer and foundation
Rimmel Stay Blushed cheek stain
Then use Max Factor Facefinity if I need a bit of powder during the day

pressone, people wear it because it makes them feel better, is that so difficult to understand? A bit of foundation, blush and mascara tends to make most people just look a bit less washed out, or even up skin tone.

Wearing make up does not alter your looks that much. Most of the products listed would make people look themselves, but better.
