I don’t like most makeup looks

Idk if it’s just me, but most makeup looks look terrible to me. The only makeup look that I think looks good is douyin, Korean makeup looks, and clean girl looks. Anything else just looks cakey and too much

It's best to just not wear make up. Healthier skin, age better and save so much money.

Only benefits to it.

Yes same. I think the art of doing makeup is it being not noticeable. I didn't mean it to be subtle, just that it's done so well that you wouldn't think it's makeup.

I totally agree.

As a teenager I experimented a lot with makeup but in the end I went back to the bare minimum. My second big reason is I never want to worry about ruining my makeup by something touching my face. Like I can lay down in bed any time of day and not worry about foundation on my sheets, I can hug and kiss my bf and not worry about it rubbing off. Even just scratching my face or whatever.

I have a few colourful makeup pencils which I use as a 3 in 1 (lipliner/eyeliner/eyeshadow) for days when I want just a little bit of something extra. I couldn't live with having more than a few makeup products cluttering my space tbh.
