Jamie

Why I love makeup: I love it sometimes, not all the time. For special occasions when you need to dress up, or going somewhere nice, makeup helps polish your overall look. On regular days, I may just wear a little bit of makeup, be it face foundation and some mascara, just because. I love that sometimes makeup can transform the way I look or just enhance some features.

Why I hate makeup: I found out when I was younger that I have sensitive skin, so I have to be careful with what I use for makeup. It could make my skin puff up or give me a rash, which is a pain. Also, it can be a little time consuming putting the stuff on. On the days I put on barely nothing, it probably takes me 10 minutes. On days I put "my whole face on" it could take around 30 minutes. Then, before going to bed, I try to scrub it all off and in the end I do not get it all. Waking up in the morning, I find myself scrubbing more off. It really takes a few days for all of it to go away with the way my skin is.
