I Only Wear Makeup When I Feel Like It
Â
I consider myself girly. I have my times though that are questionable and I dress in all of my boyfriend’s clothes in which you can’t even tell I’m a girl. I buy A LOT of makeup. When I say a lot, I mean every time I go to Ulta I spend my check. I have not one, or two, but three cases of makeup in my room right now. Most is name brand, high quality stuff. Some are my favorite cheap ones too. The comment I hate the most is when someone says, “you have so much makeup and never use it”. This completely and automatically makes me mad. Why do you have the right to make me feel bad? I don’t need to wear makeup to feel better, I wear makeup when I want. For when I’m feeling artsy not to impress anyone. Sometimes I go weeks without wearing it, sometimes days. I don’t need it though. That’s the thing, my mom wakes up every day and does her makeup and hair. Everyday. She says she cannot leave the house without it but honestly who cares? If people are going to talk about me because I didn’t put ink on my eyelid or I didn’t brush my hair today then they’re fake.
I work two jobs, go to school full time, and am involved in extracurriculars so sometimes I get extremely busy. When you don’t go to bed until 2 am and then have class at 9 am that same day it’s hard to get up earlier just to “look pretty”. Some days I get up, put my unbrushed hair in a bun, put on an oversized sweatshirt, leggings, and tennis shoes and go. I don’t need to look like a model to learn. I certainly don’t need to look like a model for others pleasure. The best feeling is being able to rub your eyes mid-day. I don’t know how many times I’ve rubbed my wing right off because I forget when I do wear it. It’s not that I’m bad at makeup, or I like “wasting money”, It’s that makeup isn’t a necessity and does not define me.
Same person, different moods. That’s all.
