Do you wear make-up every day and if so....

I wear makeup when I have to work cause it's required and to run errands or whatnot sometimes I will do a partial face, not full on with eyeshadows,etc. If I'm home with nowhere to go, I just have a clean, moisturized face.

Partial= powder, concealer,fill-in eyebrows, mascara & gloss

It can take me anywhere from 10 min. to 20 min. 10min if I'm running errands, 20min to get ready for work.

If I'm not leaving the house I will not wear make up.

If I'm just popping to the supermarket, or going to Uni then I'll buff on a little mineral foundation, a bit of blush and fill my eyebrows. This takes about 5 to 10 minutes.

For a night out, it really depends how glam I feel. I can happily go out clubbing with just foundation, blush, eyeliner and mascara on. If I feel like pushing the boat out I'll make an effort with eyeshadow and false lashes. I'm not big on wearing lipstick or gloss, a bit of vaseline will usually suffice. So, getting ready for a night out will take between 20 minutes to an hour.

When I'm camping at a music festival I will not take much make up, partly because it is mostly MAC and it's worth quite a bit so if it were to get stolen from my tent I'd be pretty upset. Because of this, I usually make do with a bit of concealer and a cheap mineral finishing powder taking a grand total of 2 minutes to apply!

I'm like everyone else..I wear it every day. I have sun damage (I'm at NC15/20..what'd you expect?!) on my cheeks, and I feel self conscious if the red shows. It takes me about 20/30 minutes; at least 15-20 minutes for my face alone. so depending if I do a super casual eye or a lot of shadow it takes longer. I won't list everything but I can't live without my Merle Norman green concealer (which is so old it's stupid..but still good!) Fix + and my mineral powder, and concealer.

I like the way I look with or without make-up. I have no versions of me, I have me.

I usually manage 3 out of 4 days for make-up during the work week, usually a smoky-eye type thing. 1/4 is usually a "barely" day where I just wanna be a little glowy. And at least one work day is a snooze day. No make-up, no big deal.

Days off? Forget it, most of the time.

i try not to wear make up every day so ive gone down to maybe 3 times a week but it usually takes me 30-45 minutes mostly because i wait for my moisturizer to dry and primer as well. i don't like rushing and having nasty foundation streaks or....uneven eyeliner. =]

I don't wear makeup everyday, although I do wear it most days. I do wear sunscreen everyday though, and doing so has lessened my need for foundation.

I wear a quick face of make-up everyday for work, which is concealer, powder, simple eyeshadow, mascara, blush and lip gloss. It takes me about 15-20 minutes.

At the weekend, I go for more colourful, dramatic makeup. The weekends are when my 'experiments' take place. Lol!

no. on a normal week i probably only wear makeup 3 days (mwf when I'm in school) and then it's usually only bronzer, a neutral lid wash, tinted moisterizers and mascara. I loove wearing makeup but i don't have time before school and I never put it on just to leave the house.
I just don't care enough and mascara irritates my contacts so if I do put it on, it will bother me later.
However, if my bf & i are going out or having date night, i might spend...oh, an hour or two doing makeup because it's so much fun to do! I'm sorta jealous of girls who have a reason to wear makeup every day!

I only wear makeup to work and if I am going out with my dh or friends. I hardly ever wear makeup on my off day if I am just hanging out at home, shopping or taking my son to his play spots. My dh prefers me with no makeup so I try to accommodate his "desire" a couple days a week...and I wear just the bare necessities to work and church 5 maybe 10 mins is all I put in to it

Whenever I leave the house. Even if it's just to go to the grocery store.
Of course, some days I just wear something simple and neutral.
