    I know make-up makes a huge diference for me. With no make-up whatsoever I feel like a 6. With just mascara and lip gloss I'm a 7. With full make-up, hair and a cute outfit I'm a 9!
    When I go to the grociery store with no make-up, in sweat pants, and guys still check me out I feel weird! And if I see someone I know when I'm not wearing make-up I make a bee-line to get out of there! I'd rather everyone who knows me think I'm always a 9.

    I have to say I am a former foundation addict! .. It is totally Physicological.. like smoking, your mind is telling u that u look ugly without make up as you are so use to wearing it.. but in actual fact make up can block your pores and cause spots.. even acne if your unlucky..and make u look alot worse than u think ........ one day I just stopped wearing it.. it took me a few days to get use to going out bare faced but it was worth it.. my skin is glowing now as it is able to breath.. and now i wear minimal make up... better face u have more cash u make... just dont put any on until you overcome ur addiction..

    Looks are only skin deep. Self esteem is what gives attraction. You ladies would all know that. If wearing make-up makes you feel good then that is fine but you need to look yourself in the mirror and say you are yourself and you like yourself. Nothing else is going to change that. If you don't love yourself then you project that mindset onto others and it is very unattractive.

    There's only certain days that I feel GROSS without makeup. sometimes I go without any on at all and feel fine, other times I feel like I should be hiding! (usually after drinking, the next day, or after I'm sick, but worst of all is when I have a bright red zit!) Most of the time I feel totally comfy without makeup! I might put on a little mascara, and I still feel gorgeous! What's REALLY weird is that there are these servers/bartenders who have seen me for the past two months with really heavy, dark makeup AND have seen me with little or no makeup. THey all told me I look more gorgeous with little or no makeup!!!!! WEIRD!!!!!

    Quite the opposite of the OP, I think most women look their best without make-up. When the ladies I've worked with would come into the club sans make-up (or after taking it off and moisturizing at the end of the night), I've always thought they looked better before the warpaint application!!

    Then again, I'm kinda a "hippie-gypsy" so I'm not a fan of make-up at all. I look my absolute best when I am fresh out of the shower with no make-up on whatsoever and next after I've applied my facial moisturizer. Outside of work, I rarely wear make-up except for occasionally adding sweep of mascara and some tinted lipgloss. Otherwise, I'm all natural

    Water is nature's best beauty enhancer IMO.

    Wow the before and afters are phenomenal! That is a great testimonial for makeup making a huge difference. Just a little while ago when I was at work a bouncer I hadn't spoken to before pulled me aside and told me I was the sexiest woman in the bar(could have been just a line), but I was like...Yes, I tricked them with my makeup and hair! My skin is pretty scarred at the moment from irritating pimples and stuff, but thanks to makeup nobody has to know!

    During the day, I prefer to not wear makeup, but I've got to invest in some skin treatments to get rid of hyperpigmentation marks. Aging really sucks because I never used to have dark circles , but now I do...AHHH! At least I can fake it with makeup...cosmetic procedures will possibly be the next step because I would love top not have to wear any makeup during the day, and very minimal makeup at night.

    I agree with a lot of the posters that *everyone* has bad picture days, and it's got little to do with natural beauty. Most of the photos are bad pictures, not bad skin. That said...

    Excellent skin care is SO important. I am 33, get regularly guessed 19-24, and I had HORRIBLE acne--the cystic type--several years ago. Now, I don't wear makeup at all aside from lip gloss and mascara unless I am dancing, and I get lots of compliments on my skin. My tricks:

    -Get yourself to a derm. As mentioned above, acne can be dealt with fairly readily. It will really boost your confidence, too. If you can't see a derm due to cost, there is an excellent skin care line, it's the best in the world, that can help a lot. Its a bit pricey, but worth it and often still less expensive than a derm. PM me for product info (not selling it to you, just don't like dropping a lot of names in my posts).

    -Hydrate. Seriously, this is one of the quickest, easiest things you can do to give your skin a a glow.

    -If you drink more than a glass of wine or beer a day, cut down or stop altogether. Alcohol & cigarrettes are hell on your skin.

    -Use facial products with antioxidants and sunscreen. Tanning your face will age it *fast*. Over 80% of our aging is environment and sun-related, only 20% is genetics, gravity and miscellaneous. I've tried tons of products, including one my plastic surgeon recommended, and finally found one that has taken YEARS off my skin.

    -As above, use a good self-tanner to get some color and glow. No oils, though.

    -Sleep a full 7-8 hours. Tired eyes are never pretty.

    -Take vitamin E.

    --Don't get too thin, especially if you're over 29-30. At that age, too thin = thin facial skin = wrinkles. Hardbody is great, but everyone saw what happened to Courtney cox when she lost all that weight...talk about a skeleton.

    -Most makeups clog pores, which will make you look older. Do an at-home chemical peel or clay masks to remove buildup from pores so they can shrink. If you don't remove the buildup, the pores won't close (pores expand to breath--our skin is the largest organ of our body, and one of it's primary functions is respiration). Once you get the dirt out, they'll start to minimize fairly quickly.

    -If you live in a dry area of the country, use a humidifier.

    Hope this helps, but I bet you're beautiful already!

    I have the book that those pictures are featured in along with the step by step application instructions for each picture. The book is titled Face Forward by Kevyn Aucoin... he was my fav Makeup Artist.

    Thats not always so easy...Ive been to a lot of dermatologists and none of them have ever been able to give me anything to get rid of my acne. Ive tried retin a, differein, all those things. What sorta works for me is the regimen thats outlined on this site: www.acne.org. But my face is basically destroyed by my acne, and I STILL get new breakouts. I have red marks and rough texture all over my skin. I look pretty with makeup but I definately NEED the makeup to feel okay.

    Why do you want to stop wearing makeup? I mean I know it sucks and its annoying but to me, its way worth it to feel so much better about myself.

    i think eating right makes a difference on my skin after a few weeks. less salty pacaged foods and more veggies (im not talking perfect diet here but try to get one meal of mostly veggies, salad, wraps,stuff like that) i also take salmon oil (alot of it!) and evening primrose oil. those good fats are very important for your skin and hair to look full, i also take a couple of anti oxidents, alpha lipoic acid (and biotin because the ala can use up some of it in your body) grape seed extract. i cook with extra virgin olive oil and coconut oil (its actualy quit good for you). and i find any alcohol at all messes up my skin.

    and of course a ton of water.

    also, take a good look at the ingredents in your make up, check online. many are actualy quite bad for your skin (talc for example can permently enlarge pores, many contain hydroginated oils) alot of the ingredents are irritants and after wearing the stuf for 16 hours a day for years the effects add up.

    i use mineral makeup my self and set it with glycerin+water in a spray bottle for a natural finish and then brush of blush and swip of lash tint. i feel good and not "made up"

    also in the posters case specificaly, you might have a pigment disorder on your face that is causing the masking. go see a dr, and see what they can do for you, if you get good results it could pay for its self with the money youll save from the makeup

    (my spelling sucks, sorry im tired...)
