I always prefer make-up on myself unless I'm out at the beach or gardening. I wear it almost every day, and yes, I even wear it to the gym 90%. I don't have beautiful natural skin, but with a little make-up and some time, there's a nice transformation and I simply like the way I look much better.
My husband thinks I'm beautiful without it, but when I stayed home all day and didn't work, I always wanted to look good for him when he got home, so even if I didn't have any on for most of the day, I'd have some on when he got home. He on the other hand, takes this picture of us when we were on a cruise last year, and blew it up to hang up on our wall at home...I hated it, I had no make-up on! It was at that point though that I realized that he didn't see the outer beauty in me...his response when I told him that I didn't like the way I looked in the picture was, "Look at your smile...you look beautiful!" We still haven't hung that picture up and probably never will, but knowing how he thought I was beautiful for all that I am, imperfections and all, made me cry that day.
Anyway...I still wear make-up and I feel better with it on. Just like I cover the gray in my hair, just like I work out, I prefer how I look with make-up. Below are 3 pictures of my eyes...the first picture was taken yesterday before I put make-up on, the 2nd picture on Monday morning as I was leaving to get a boob job (I'm not a morning person and wasn't smiling at all), and the 3rd picture is a minute after I had my tongue pierced.
I certainly like the last two better!
