This week Jacqueline Lunn ponders how much make up we all use? A little lip gloss as you run out the door or do you add a full face to drop the kids at school?

Hardly ever. Except for when I leave at 5:30am every morning for my morning run. At that ungodly hour I really don't care what I look like, I don't even brush my hair - it's often sticking up all over the place after the night's sleep.

But as a general rule, I put on make-up and do my hair every day even on weekends or days off when I don't have any plans on going anywhere - just in case. That way I can leave to go somewhere with very little notice - just a change of clothes and a touch-up.

I pretty much ALWAYS go out without makeup! I am lucky enough to have pretty good skin, and my eyes are hidden behind some very groovy specs (if I do say so myself! wink.gif) at the moment, so there's not much point mucking around with mascara etc either.

Do you leave the house without makeup?

Yep, all the time!!
I never used to when I was working but since having children, I hardly ever wear makeup unless we are going out for the evening, which is quite rare these days blush.gif

Everyday I am nude of any make-up at all!

Make up for me is Brown Mascara and maybe if something flash brown eyeliner and rose petal mauve lip gloss for lip colouring! I only wear this make up if I am going out.

I personally feel like my skin is suffocating when I wear foundation and eye shader and all the other things that people wear. I love looking at women with made up faces, they look so pretty, just not for me.

My sister wears makeup everyday and does her hair and she lives on a farm laugh.gif and me who lives in Melbourne wears NIL! Even when I worked in the CBD I didn't wear any unsure.gif

At goal!! 24kg down, no more kgs to go!
I'm exactly the same as the PP. I used to wear makeup every single day but since having children I hardly ever wear it. I think the last time I wore makeup was to my SIL's wedding in April last year. I just don't have the time to do it anymore. The thing is though I probably need to wear it more now than I ever did before with bags under the eyes from all the sleepless nights laughing2.gif
