I'm a student,(I won't say how old)and I've never worn makeup. Well, there's been a few times at parties where my friend insisted on doing my makeup, but that's about it. I've just never felt the need to wear makeup. I really don't have time to put it on in the morning. I value my sleep, lol. But lately, I've felt like I need to start wearing it. I feel like I'm the only girl who doesn't. Also, I'm afraid guys won't notice me if i don't look as good as the other girls who wear makeup. I don't think I'm that ugly, but I'm not the prettiest girl around.. I do try to wear nice clothes. I love to shop. I don't really do my hair, though. I just let it air dry and use some hairspray. So, my question is: is it normal to not wear any makeup? Is there something wrong with not wearing makeup?

    I don't wear it either. Why does society expect woman to automatically wear makeup?

    You shouldn't feel pressured to wear a mask mate. And really that's all makeup is. A mask for people to hide behind.

    You're not alone. If make up isn't your thing then don't wear it. Normally the girls that wear makeup wear it because they like it not because they feel like they should. I

    Girls look better with no makeup. Sometimes girls don't actually suit makeup at all.
    There is this girl that looked like a male tranvestite when she wore makeup. I didn't believe that she did when she told me, so when she did I was just like...Oh.

      You can find looks with makeup that will suit just about anyone. Some faces are harder to find good looks for, though. Often (though possibly not always), guys who think girls look better with no makeup don't realise that many of the girls who they think aren't wearing makeup are actually wearing subtle makeup.

      As for your friend, if I apply makeup in certain ways (even ways that look good on some people), yes, I look ridiculous. Figuring out what looks good on each person takes time and effort.

      That said, there's nothing wrong with not wearing makeup. It's fine.

        I hate seeing people walk down the street who look like Effie Trinket on crack.

    There is nothing worse than a completely matte face. Make-up always makes girls look worse in my opinion.

    Don't wear make-up unless you feel like it!

    I wear full makeup about once a month or less,ill get bored and just play with my makeup.I would never wear it on a daily basis,i usually mix one pump of face cream with a bit of tinted moisturizer for a super light coverage.

    The natural look is my thing, although I do wear make-up occasionally...I just don't make it a habit!

    I've often wondered the same thing, it seems like it's a completely normal thing for girls to wear make-up daily, and it's never even occurred to me to wear make-up on an average day. I'll wear it if I'm dressing up, or going out or something, but not on a day to day basis. I think it's kinda weird for girls to wear it daily.

    My advice is to so what is comfortable for you and to not be the least bit conscious of what makes others comfortable on you, because then you might become more and more self conscious.

    Makeup is overrated. There's no real need to use it day to day, it's just a waste.

    Since virtually every woman wears make-up, its pretty unusual you've never done it. But there's nothing wrong with that of course. It's good you haven't felt that need to (until now).

    I'll be honest, I think a lot of girls (guys too sometimes) look more striking with a bit of eye make-up. It just enhances the eyes. So if you feel like buckling to the pressure of expectation, just put a bit of eyeliner on, and some mascara if you want :)

    It's cool. I enjoy makeup, but it's not for everybody.
