OK, maybe I'm wrong. It just really jumps out at me when I see a woman without makeup. Personally I would like to avoid standing out, I just want to blend in so I would wear some form of makeup. I know from a previous post, that is not your goal Charlotte, you like to experiment with fashion and have fun. Each to their own I guess.
With lippy I put it on, blot, then apply again, blot then apply a third time and blot. Seems to last a good while despite eating or drinking. Would possibly need touching up at some point through the day but not usually too bad. I also use a lip plumping balm when not wearing lippy.
I use fairly minimal makeup, concealer for blemishes, bronser on top of cheeks and nose, Blusher underneath the cheek and up to just below the temple. Lippy, eyeliner, mascara and a thin bead of an eyeshadow. Fix with either powder or fixing spray or both. Doesn't take me long. Can't be bothered with the mess of foundation or anything.
