More of a general Q: Do you feel naked without make-up?

Generally speaking do you feel naked without makeup on? And what does your typical makeup face consist of? Mine is a matte Mac lipstick and mascara, increasingly a good Nars highlighter.

I don't tend to go for a full on face but without lipstick and mascara I do sort of feel naked iyswim.

Full face for work
BB cream, brows and a bit of shadow for the weekend
I just like the way I look with it!

I feel naked without it but I'm trying to cut down. Standard now is some bb cream, a bit of mineral powder to reduce shine, a thin line of eyeliner above my top lashes and some lippy - nude-ish if I'm feeling fairly happy with myself, red if I want to hide behind it. On occasions where I don't wear makeup - particularly mascara - I always get asked if I'm not well!!

I don't feel naked without make up, but I don't feel me without covering up the dark circles, and any spots, plus some tinted lip balm or lipstick, and some blusher. I don't suit a full face of make up, it feels wrong, but I like enough to even out my skin, cover up the bits I'm self conscious about and give me a bit of colour.

I agree with macavity, I feel odd in make up
