Using Makeup

I put this in the women and girls section but I'm sure some men and boys use this too - feel free to post guys :) 

Anyways, today I put on some makeup and it was hell! I couldn't stand it for long and had to wash it off as quickly as I could - even now my skin still feels really strange. Guess it'll be like that a while now.

I've never been able to tolerate makeup but thought I'd give it a try today just to see if that's changed. It hadn't :) 

Is anyone else like this?

  • I rarely wear makeup to work, maybe a bit of mascara if I remember and have time to put it on! If I wear foundation I have to make sure my face is extremely well moisturised first then I usually wear a light creamy one. I have eyeshadow, eyeliner and mascara on my eyes and a creamy lipstick. Don’t like matte lipsticks and some styles of gloss they can feel crusty

    I've been watching some videos on YouTube and there's some guides and ideas of gentle makeup which I might look at giving a try - just to see if that's bearable or not. 

    It's something I like the look of, even if it were just worn every now and then.
