do you wear makeup at home?

No, never. To much hassle putting it on and then taking it off at the end of the day. I wear pretty minimal makeup as it is, and when I stay at home for the day I don't feel the need to do anything beyond my basic skincare routine.

I do, however, wear perfume and do my hair. But my hair routine is very simple, I just curl it with a curling iron - takes me a total of 5 minutes. My natural hair is straight and I just don't like how it looks on me, I prefer loose curls/waves.
 
Yes, I do wear makeup at home.
I am vain at all times and under all circumstances.
My UPS man used to be OAF, I would not want to disappoint him too much:coolio:
That business about letting your skin breaths and what have you. For what? It can breath while I am asleep just as well.
What is going on?
Between the posts praising savings and restrains and now a call for eliminating grooming?
Is it the end?

LOL
not a call for eliminating grooming....I'm just lazy. You do you :)
(I do moisturize and shower every day, regardless of whether I'm going anywhere)

hard to imagine feeling like you can't let your husband see your "real" face....and this woman I was talking about was pretty. Not that I ever saw her w/o makeup but she looked pretty to me.
I know someone at work who says she feel she needs to wear makeup and look good for her husband.
She’s a busy mom with a new baby too. I feel bad for her.:sad:
I told her, girl, you’re already married, give yourself a break! (And I’ve seen her without makeup, totally fine and she’s still young! In her 20s)

some sort of insecurity on your friend's part I guess. My DH doesn't seem to be able to tell the difference when I wear makeup. but makeup, hair down, "real" clothes on, I think I do look a lot better than with the sweats and bun.

Yes, she is, it’s an internal issue unfortunately.
My husband also sometimes can’t tell. He says my makeup is too natural. Apparently he’s used to seeing a lot of city girls in his home country with a lot of makeup :lol:
But he could care less for the most part.
When I try something different with my makeup he does notice though. Generally gives a comment that he likes it. (And I’m like well it takes too much effort so don’t be expecting it on the daily! :lol:)

I’d never eliminate grooming, apples and oranges… I barely wear makeup, I have no need to apply it if I’m in for the day.
Oh, :lol:

Good for you for marrying someone who has the good sense not to put down his partner.
Bonus point for someone who is attempting to change behaviors by giving positive feedback.

when I'm home I wear no makeup and dress for comfort - sweats, etc. Hair in pony or bun. I feel kinda bad for my DH but I figure he knows what I look like.
I knew a woman with a cheating husband who would get up every morning and apply full makeup before he saw her.
Do you dress nicely and wear makeup at home?
That's exactly what I do on the weekends (when I'm off from work). I don't do anything except apply a longwear lipstick so I don't have to worry about it for the day. Otherwise, hair goes up and no makeup, usually a sweatshirt and leggings, or my North Face sweatpants which are sooooo comfortable, and sneakers.
