[QUOTE="Shari, post: 196795, member: 1848"] I prefer a natural look - even if a woman is wearing makeup, the woman that doesn't [I]look[/I] like she is wearing makeup is the one that will catch my eye. With enough goo and the right artist, we can all look like Jennifer Anniston. I guess that realization changed my perspective a little, because now I find myself looking at the tabloid photos, and the superstars who look good without their makeup are the ones that I admire - if you can project a beautiful image without the paint, [I]that's[/I] the secret I want to know - that's the kind of person I want to be - that's the person who catches my attention. So that said, its a rare occassion that I wear makeup. I don't feel a need to be someone I'm not or project an image that I am not. One friend joked at my wedding that I wore less makeup to my wedding than she did to work every day. But that's me. My [I]outward [/I]appearance is not my priority. I'm clean, my clothes are clean and not wrinkled, they are not the latest fashions, and I wear most everything til it is truly worn out (for outside chore clothes, not necessarily to work). My fingernails are clean, but short - long nails for the things I do just don't work. But that is who I am. I am natural, I am frugal, I work hard at my tasks, not at my looks. And if someone doesn't like me because I don't "look" right, then I figure I've not lost much - I probably didn't have a lot in common with that person, anyway. [/QUOTE]
