Is this normal to be offended or are my friends just jerks?

My friends are judgemental, and it makes me angry. I'm a really relaxed person. I don't care what people think of me, but not to the point where I'm rude about it. I never wear make up and I dress how I want, hoodies, jeans, t-shirts, other things. My friends all wear makeup and constantly worry about what people think and how they look. And honestly, it kind of makes me mad. I was on Homecoming last year and this year, winning this year. And they keep telling me that I'd look much better if I did this or that and changed to be like everyone else.. when honestly, I like being me. I'm never told I'm ugly, I get complimented on my looks and I have plenty of people that say they're glad I'm not preppy and have a good personality. But I feel like I'm not good enough in my friends eyes.
I like being the xbox and softball playing, not giving a crap of peoples opinion's, and just being myself girl. Is that normal to feel like that but still worry so much about not being good enough?

    Yes, it's normal to be a tomboy with a group of girly friends that don't understand that.

    But you claim that you don't care about other's opinions yet you are saying that you don't feel good enough for them. So you care about others opinions. So what? Join the club.

    Either ignore them, tell them that you're comfortable with the way you look, quit taking shit so personally or find a group of tomboys to hang out with. Simple.

    It depends on where u'r going, it's boring if u keep dressing the same way like if ur going to a pub or on a date or just playing xbox

    I'd say that there are occasions where it is suitable to wear make-up to look your best. I think your friends just want you to make the most of your good looks. They may even think that you don't wear a little make-up coz you don't know how to apply it.

    There's a TV programme called "How Do I Look" and I just visualise you as one of those ugly ducklings who with a little help becomes a beautiful swan. Why should you not be as gorgeous as possible?

    Your friends are jerks. Friends wouldn't want you to change, they'd accept you as you are.
