Considering that this is a blog made by two girls, I’m surprised this issue hasn’t come up before. Well, here it is.
Hi. I’m Haley Clouser and I wear make-up. What’s the shame in that? You see, there is none.
Every girl is bound to wear some sort of make-up, even if it doesn’t necessarily have the title as make-up. Glitter = make-up.
I’ll admit, I like wearing make-up because of the whole comfort zone it provides. I feel better with it on and I feel more self-conscious without it. It’s like someone who has a favorite ring or necklace that they feel “naked” when they don’t have it on. That’s the same feeling that I have. Plus, the whole deal that eye-liner costs eight bucks per seemingly only 1/2 ounce bottle, I’m using the whole dang thing ’til it dries up.
I like wearing make-up. I’m not suggesting you should wear it (especially if you’re a guy…unless you want to?), I’m just saying it’s what I like. I do try to not wear make-up, but then there’s the “what if” factor. What if I look worse when I don’t have make-up on? That’s why I wear it. Without taking that risky step, I eliminate that “what if” and that potential drop of self-esteem.
And why do guys insist on girls to not wear make-up? I mean, in a sense, that’s kind of hypocritical. Guys want girls to look “hot” and yet most of their definitions of being ”hot” are based on girls that wear make-up (well and skanky clothes). So when they ask us to “try not to wear make-up”, they want us to be the opposite of what they are looking for? I don’t understand. Obviously, girls (most of them) try to be what guys want…including me. So, it’d be less confusing if they’d just say what they want. Make a group consensus ya know?
meh.
Eagle.
P.S. I’m not a man-hater (Trust me, I love me some men 
). Just lately, the posts have seemed that way…I don’t know why?
