Ik merk ook wel dat als ik dit vaker doe, ik meer last heb van uitslag. Gebruik nochtans MAC en reinig mijn gezicht tweemaal per dag grondig... Ochja... met de natural way (incl. regelmatig puistjes en koorstblaasjes) moeten ze het maar doen ;-)Annebethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10513425212332523848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457429684812771723.post-18506807063539774982012-03-13T18:00:19.064+01:002012-03-13T18:00:19.064+01:00Ik ben één van de weinige in mijn vriendinnen- en ...Ik ben één van de weinige in mijn vriendinnen- en collegagroep die elke dag make-up draagt. Ik ben er ooit mee begonnen en nooit meer mee gestopt. 't Is een gewoonte maar ik vind ook wel dat ik er beter uitzie met op z'n minst een beetje blush. Ik ben heel bleek. Op goede dagen heb ik van die gezonde blozende wangen maar van die goede dagen heb ik jammer genoeg niet veel. Om er dus niet ziek uit te zien, draag ik blush. Ik zou niet zonder kunnen maar heb er ook geen probleem mee om eens een dagje zonder rond te lopen.Annebethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10513425212332523848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457429684812771723.post-54041765830352195722012-03-13T15:46:56.350+01:002012-03-13T15:46:56.350+01:00I really hate how people automatically assume a wo...I really hate how people automatically assume a woman is ill, or hasn't had enough sleep or something if she doesn't wear makeup. We're all so used to seeing people with perfect, flawless faces that we forget that dark circles and differing skin tones and such are just natural parts of our bodies, the way nature made them. I actually really like my makeup-less face, but I will admit I'm more comfortable with it if I'm dressed like a boho hippie, while I'd feel weird going to work without makeup.Annebethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10513425212332523848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457429684812771723.post-25352250097551380872012-03-13T13:01:20.428+01:002012-03-13T13:01:20.428+01:00You still look pretty without make up, doll!

When I was in high school I wore a lot of make up - foundation, eye line, eye brow pencil, mascara, concealer, blusher... We used to go to The Body Shop on Saturdays for a make-over, and they naturally put far more make up on a 14 year old girl than was really necessary, to sell the stuff! But as I got older I began to realise that I had nothing that needed hiding with foundation, and more to the point, it was nigh impossible to get foundation within my budget in my skin tone. I was too pale for cheap foundations. So I stopped wearing it.<br /><br />These days, on the one day a week I go into the office, I wear blusher, possibly a dab of concealer, and eyebrow pencil, but that's all. Staring at a computer all day means I rub my eyes too often for any eye make up to be practical. On a night out I wear mascara, occasionally eye liner, and usually a lip tint, but not much more. Now in my 30s, I find I am freer from make-up than I have ever been before!Annebethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10513425212332523848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457429684812771723.post-4580755540769613482012-03-13T11:06:49.534+01:002012-03-13T11:06:49.534+01:00I'm not wearing make up in 90% of my posts.

But also because I used to have the worst skin in my teenage years. I dealt with severe acne from about 14 to 20. I still get a spot every now and then but because I know how bad it used to be (and how horrible it made me feel) one little spot is relative to me, y'know? No one'll probably notice. Also, even if I'd want to, make-up isn't really good for your skin and I think it might make mine worse again. I just tend to use a concealer if I have any spots but if you have bad acne then that's not an option cause it'll only make your face look worse.<br />In hindsight: I think you look great and have beautiful skin, with and without make-up. I don't care what other people choose to do, it's your choice! And mostly I'm happy I no longer have to deal with the bad skin I used to have. I really think acne is something people need to give more attention to. It's not always just a teenage thing and it can be helped!Annebethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10513425212332523848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457429684812771723.post-68395232131656490522012-03-13T08:55:52.027+01:002012-03-13T08:55:52.027+01:00You are very pretty even without your make-up on, ...You are very pretty even without your make-up on, Annebeth!

And reading this made me think about how much I've changed-- when I first tried makeup at 16, I didn't like the way it looked on me. I preferred my "naked" face. But now, I love makeup and I prefer at least wearing foundation and blush. I have rare days where I'll wake up and like the way I look sans-makeup, but I usually end up deciding to put on a face just to go out, because I end up thinking "oh, I look so tired/red/blotchy/insert-other-criticisms-here". <br />But I kind of like the no-makeup Monday idea. It's a good one. More fashion bloggers should realize that they are beautiful (like you) without makeup on, and makeup doesn't define them!Annebethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10513425212332523848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457429684812771723.post-7956212101497070342012-03-13T00:14:42.246+01:002012-03-13T00:14:42.246+01:00This is such an excellent post!!!

But it gets to be like a "safety blanket" almost, where if you're without it you feel less or naked! I wear a lot less then I used to, in high school I experimented with loads of eyeshadow (in every shade from neon yellow, to hot pink and sparkly black, always with a ton of eyeliner) and now I can say I'm pretty comfortable with less. The only thing I'm uncomfortable without is foundation BUT only at the times when my 23 year old skin still thinks it's 16 and breaks out. <br />You look gorgeous with or without makeup and I think you have gorgeous skin! It's definitely an important issue for women to think about and decide upon for themselves. For me it's the feeling of being "put together" just like some days I dress up more or am a bit more casual my makeup routine follows suit!<br />xJennaDAnnebethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10513425212332523848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457429684812771723.post-21726079149405803882012-03-13T00:02:18.712+01:002012-03-13T00:02:18.712+01:00Ooooh sneaky! :pOoooh sneaky! :pAnnebethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10513425212332523848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457429684812771723.post-55171294214499492432012-03-12T23:38:45.906+01:002012-03-12T23:38:45.906+01:00well, my guess could have been further off! :Dwell, my guess could have been further off! :DAnnebethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10513425212332523848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457429684812771723.post-83248761243714574262012-03-12T23:27:10.815+01:002012-03-12T23:27:10.815+01:00Toppost, zoals gewoonlijk.Toppost, zoals gewoonlijk.Annebethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10513425212332523848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457429684812771723.post-8585435328468271862012-03-12T23:16:41.256+01:002012-03-12T23:16:41.256+01:00haha I'm from Chile.

My mother tried her best to make me smart but plain all my life, so when I finally broke free I wanted to experiment. I wear makeup sparingly, probably just two days a week. I do fill my eyebrows if I'm leaving the house (because I have SO LITTLE HAIR everywhere but on my head), but everything else is extra. I think the whole "taking care of yourself" thing has a lot to do with whether you look confident and happy. If you feel good in your skin without makeup, then it should be fine by everyone. I personally am happy both ways, and I think that's the reason why makeup brings me joy instead of adding to my insecurity.<br /><br />Sunny xxAnnebethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10513425212332523848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457429684812771723.post-50922148814777018012012-03-12T23:04:49.549+01:002012-03-12T23:04:49.549+01:00Aw, your skin does look nice without makeup!

I never do anything more complicated than lipgloss or mascara (and even those pretty rarely), mostly because I don't really know what to do with anything else.

Besides, the fact that your experience with this is different from mine does not devalue your or my truth, we all have different lives and experiences :) You are from spain or portugal, right? I think it's harder for very pale girls like me to not wear make up, because without the tan we look very bland very soon. I find it easier not to wear make up in the summer as well :) My friends all wear make up mostly every day! Maybe not foundation, but at least some eyepencil.<br /><br />I'd never consider a woman less based on make up too btw, let that be clear. But I have encountered it in my environment.Annebethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10513425212332523848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457429684812771723.post-62364909451110260962012-03-12T22:49:25.043+01:002012-03-12T22:49:25.043+01:00Strange...

I normally don't wear make up, I never wear foundation only I put it directly onto some zits when it's really bad cause lol I'm 24 and my teenage zits should be gone by now but to no avail grgr and my make up days would consist of just lipstick, blush and some mascara...<br />anyway I never have considered a woman 'less' because they don't wear make up and I know many who don't wear on a daily basis apart from me. Plus I have worked for two years and no one ever gave me a bad comment about me not wearing make up. So I think the assumption of people instantly judging you because you wear no make up might be a bit extreme and maybe it depends also in which contexts and people you live with, I guess. But I certainly don't feel any pressure in the morning to go and cover my face with make up and I'm actually glad that it's like that. There are enough social constraints for women for me to put up with one more (aka make up). And I really don't see anything wrong with your face: rosy cheeks you got nice fine features, I mean, you are naturally pretty.It is true, though, that make up can enhance your looks and I have never judged anyone because they wear 'tons' of make up. <br /><br />What we shouldn't forget is that we have the choice "to wear/not wear make up", and it should be fine as long as that is OUR personal choice -not theirs (society).Annebethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10513425212332523848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457429684812771723.post-4919884571347443502012-03-12T22:49:09.572+01:002012-03-12T22:49:09.572+01:00Hihi, zoals hieronder gezegd zegt ook mijn vriendj...Hihi, zoals hieronder gezegd zegt ook mijn vriendje altijd 'maar ik zie het niet hoor'.
