Is it normal that i only feel pretty with makeup on?
I feel like I look like a totally different person without makeup on. I feel so insecure without it, that I almost never go out of the house without it on.

If you are good at using make-up, I am not surprised. If applied subtly and intelligently, it can make you look prettier than without.
If you're gonna wear make-up, make it look like you're not wearing any at all. Just put on very little... Or you'll look like a doll for little girlies... Anyway, you are already beautiful! Just go one day with at least only lip gloss/balm/whatever (not lipstick) and see what would happen! If everything's fine, it's fine!
I don't even wear make-up, and do I think I'm awkward-looking? Yes. But, just sprinkle in a bit of confidence and BAM! You're not gonna hafta wear that much make-up anymore!
There is an insane amount of girls/women who feel the exact same way as you. What I found helps with being insecure about it is try going out at least once a month without makeup. You'll find that the first time it will feel awkward and very strange. If you have bad skin and people look at you funny, so what? Who cares what strangers think. Progressively, try to do this more often. I myself am struggling with the same issue as you and am trying to do the same thing. We're not perfect and still it can be hard to accept our imperfections. But we all need to realize that there are more important things in life.
The people who matter don't mind and the people who mind don't matter.
I have a friend similar to you. If we go to the gym and shower afterwards, she will not leave the gym until she puts her make up on because she is so insecure. I think that its fairly normal though, I dont like leaving the house if I dont have at least a little bit on.
I have NEVER met a woman who can improve her looks by painting herself up like some kind of circus clown. Sorry, but I'm sure you are lovely naturally, and other than your own insecurities, there is no actual reason to wear make up.
That's why girls are two faces. Sure they look hot that night at the party but when you wake up next to them in the morning and they aren't caked with makeup, every guy wonders what he was thinking
I only wear it if I look sleepy, or I haven't been putting enough iron in my diet. Darkness under eyes = insufficient oxygen flow in your blood = low iron.
I wear make up all the time when I go out of the house but I don't feel ugly without it. I just feel more put together.
thats how society wants you to be.... its messed up but im not even kidding
im sure you look fine with or without it
Well.. I don't really know, guess not... Would you fancy growing a beard?
