do you look tired wihtout your make up on

[LittleMouseWithCLogsOn]

cos i do pprently

Hmm think so, but mainly just too pale and washed out.

I get this from my beloved (mostly male) colleagues if I don't wear any - the "are you ok...you look awfully pale"....

That and the fact that without mascara and eybrow pencil i look like the albino bunny as my eyelashes and eyebrows are so pale....

If I don't wear make-up I look like a man.

Which I most certainly am not!

yes

Up until I was 32 I never looked tired even when I was knackered. Now I just look awful, I need to wear full wear make then I look half decent but I'm not that great at applying it and you can't always tell that I'm wearing any.

I look OK without makeup if you're referring to foundation - but I look shite without eye-liner and mascara.

I am sure you all look much lovelier than you think.
Make-up is a disguise that we all need from time to time, but underneath, we are all still just as beautiful, no matter how bad we feel.

well i ahev amake up on properly for the first tiem int hree dasy
phew

I need make-up.

I look like a bag of shite without it.

I look tired and like I don't have any features.

Lol Tombley, I am picturing this completely blank face with eyes, nose or mouth.

That it. It's just a huge expanse of skin on a moon face unless I draw features on with make up.
Thank the good Lord above for max factor, No7 et al.

Tired, ill, red patches on chin, forehead, cheeks and chin, dark bags set attractively under my eyes; yes, after much thought I would say so!
So.....in addition to foundation, what else would anyone (please) suggest to cover redness?

paper bag?
[runs away]

No, really, have you tried a colour corrector ie cream / powder that is green or yellowy and neutralises the red rather than just hoping to hide it?
Most ranges have one - depends on yr budget.

I look tired whatever! But worse without make-up definitely

If I ever need to pull a sicky (rare these days as work p/t) I turn up to work with no make up and am practically forced into going home Took dd swimming last weekend and didn't make an "effort" and was told I looked tired so I pretended I was

I'll try anything within a mid-range budget. It's so upsetting to unexpectedly catch a glimpse of my reflection oout and about and seeing my face...

i look rough as roadkill witout mine

If I've got no concealer on, people look alarmed , concerned and ask if I'm ok.....
I look like I've been punched in the eye...

this kind of thing - the more expensive brands do them too - might be worth going to Boots and having a poke about.

Not so much tired as ill. My dcs ask why I have to 'put my face on' before I go out. I tell them it's so I don't scare anyone.

I've never heard of or seen this kind of thing - I'm quite excited!

"Cheesy, are you OK? You look ... tired ..."

(No, just no mascara today)

my sister used to use that green cream in the 70s! i'd forgotton all about it

my face takes about an hour to re-arrange itself in the morning.
