The Wednesday Question


It's that time again! This week's question is one that was very easy for me to answer. Hopefully it will be easy for you to answer as well, because I'd love to see your responses!

What's the one makeup item that you can easily skip in your daily routine?

For me, that would be lip liner. I think lip liner always tends to look a little odd on me, so I very rarely wear it. I usually only wear if it I'm wearing a very bold lip color, like a deep red, and then it's only to help prevent the color from bleeding. So how about you? What's the one product you can skip in a pinch?

Even though u said one makeup item i have two, i would say blush and foundation, i rarely wear them but when i do i still like the way i look but dont have to have them everyday.

blush, i guess. i only put it on when i remember. i really like maybelline's dream mousse blush though. the formula is great, and they have such pretty colors.

i occasionally space out and forget my blush but that's npot what you meant. :) (i really hate it when that happens tho b/c in office lighting i look like a corpse as is from paleness.)

i often omit lipstick, at least one weekdays, preferring balm, gloss, or stain. i never wear lipliner (even with lipsticks) but that's about it!

I sometimes forgo the mascara (GASP). I have the longest lashes ever (please don't stone me) but I still loved mascara...until I got glasses. Now my mascara would just rub up against the lenses, creating a mess.

What a terrible thing to complain about. Sorry to all my mini-lashed gals out there!

beautifulmonday said...

this mini-lashed girl forgives you. i'd never part with my mascara either way!



(and sorry for all my typos today- ugly things- i'm a little hyper.)

I can leave the blush. I'm a brown girl and I just haven't found a flattering way to wear it. I'm not so into the clown look. lol

I'd skip foundation easily, as I almost never wear some (=

Unknown said...

I usually go without eye shadow, mascara and foundation.

Carolanne said...

foundation, for sure. concealer and matifying powder are enough for me. i just wear foundation on more "special" occasions.

janetsbreeze said...

I'd skip the lip stuff, both liner and lippie.

lip stuff i nearly always skip
the only thing i wear on my lips is moisturizing stuff i can apply without a mirror, like the hip jelly balms

i sometimes forget setting/matte powder, but i try not to cuz i have oily skin =/

I'm going to have to be unoriginal and say blush. It definetely does make me look better, but if I had to choose only ONE to get rid of in my daily routine, it would be my blush (although I do love it! I just love everything else more).

Amy said...

I actually don't use foundation or concealer, I leave both those things out unless I'm dressing up and need to look really made up.

Rita said...

I find that I can skip mascara as long as I use a very dark eyeliner to make up for it. I wear eyeliner daily, so if I'm running late, I figure that I might as well take an extra second to draw a thicker and bolder line.

Eyeliner. I usually don't wear it anyway.

Jamie Dorman said...

I could easily forget foundation primer, and even though I try not to, a lot of times I skip mascara. Good thing naked lashes are in this spring!

jane said...

i can skip everything! i enjoy wearing makeup and even doing an all-out application with all the stops, but if i'm in a hurry i'll just fill in my brows and put on some mascara. and if i'm in a real hurry, i just run out the door with a "naked" face.

Unknown said...

Mine would also be lip liner. I don't know why I still buy them. I see one and go ooooh, that's a pretty color and then it just sits in the drawer...

Thank you ladies SO much for another great collection of answers to TWQ! Who knew that blush would be the most popular "I can skip it" item! I only wish I could skip blush but I would look like one very scary ghost if did. lol. :)

Blush--but only thanks to hot flashes, LOL!
