    Default without makeup?????

    How do you guys feel outside of work... plain hair, no makeup, bright lights? I often wonder...
    Outside of work I feel really self concious and don't feel good about myself. I always get worried that I might bump into someone from work during the day and they will see the real me. :o Its not that I go overboard with the makeup an stuff I guess the lights just hide alot......
    The main thing is I have bad skin, a combination of teenage acne and too much uv rays has left some red spotting on my cheeks and really takes its toll on my self esteem. I know to me it probably seems alot worse then what it is but it doesn't help how I feel. I envy those girls who say they don't need to wear make up at work!
    Look forward to the comments you guys have to make

    I feel the same way. Totally self concious without some makeup outside of work. I am always afraid of bumping into someone that I know, and hearing later, via the grapevine, something terrible about it. I know I shouldn't worry about what others say, but I guess that's just human nature.

    I think that our own imperfections we stress over are usually not as bad to others as we see them. Or at least that's what people say...Still doesn't keep me from feeling terrible when I see the things that I dislike about myself.

    I bet I wouldn't even be recognized outside of a club (when I start, lol). I can work the makeup for me to be an 8 or 9. But in real life I love to dress way down, ponytail, hat, etc. and I'm more like a 3 or 4. Heh.

    That actually happened to me before... I was walking into the club when these 2 guys were trying ot hit on me & to come hang out with them when I am done getting ready. So I get ready & half an hour later go up to their table & they didn't even recognize me, they were like "we are waiting for Danielle" I said "um, yea that's me" lol

    Outside of the club I never wear any makeup, I always use lip gloss & some eyeliner though, thats it.

    I rarely wear makeup outside of the club...after being glam all the time in the club it has lost it's luster by the time I am out of the club..plus I am always paranoid that I look like a stripper outside of work so I totally go the opposite and wear baggy clothes etc..I figure if a guy approaches me looking like that..there is a good chance he REALLY likes the real me!

    I dont look too different...at work theres more makeup of course, but at the same time, I dont look that different.
    When I am home, or go out on a regular day, I ALWAYS wear mascara, and I love lipgloss. I have green eyes so I love to make them look pretty.

    I hate wearing makeup! If I'm not working I rarely use any. To go out I'll put a little concealer around the eyes, lipgloss, and MAYBE some mascara. At work it's full-on glam, but that's not really me.

    I LOVE Makeup. I was into makeup artistry before I started dancing, so I love how makeup makes me feel. It makes me feel put together and lifts my mood. When we look good we feel good...

    I always wear makeup. The same makeup, only outside the club its very sheer and lines are thin. In the club its darker, thicker, except for foundation, everything has multiple layers.

    I think this really does depend on the girl in question and also her personality at work. No makeup on a sophisticated dancer seems strange and a light touch on a sweet personality seems right.
    I once worked at a club that had a feature that would do her stage shows sans makeup. The guys loved her. Of course she was naturally beautiful and had dark hair, eyes, lashes and a nice skintone. The fact that she didn't need to wear makeup was noticed and appreciated by the guys.
    I wouldn't work without makeup myself, but I have noticed that when my makeup has come off half-way through the day that men will comment on how good I look. I think it is that tousled bedroom look that does something for guys.

    What you should realize is that every dancer feels this way to some degree. I know that I do sometimes. But try not to let it get you down too much. I'm sure you are a lot more beautiful than you think. And if other people don't think so, then so be it. Trust me, if you let the negative opinions of other people consume you, you will never be able to appreciate yourself for the beautiful and lovely woman that you are. Just try to open your mind to the idea that you are more than you think you are.

    Lots of Love,

    I try not to wear makeup outside the club- you have to give your poor face a break sometime! Just a little mascara, that's all.

    I don't usually wear very much make-up away from the clubs, but I don't go too heavy in the club either. My staple is mascara, but that's about it. Normally I wear a brown shadow, sometimes a black liner and lipstick or gloss, but the mascara is a for sure. I'm normally satisfied with my looks, but the mascara just opens my eyes and WOWS everyones!

    I hardly ever wear make-up outside of the club, if I go somewhere special I MIGHT put on some lip gloss and mascara and that's it max. I never have anytime to put it on and it's so much work anyways and I end up falling asleep in it most of the time and it reeks havoc on my skin, so none for me. Plus getting hit on in the club is enough for me, I try to repel guys outside the club lol.

    i can not stand makeup. i take my lipstick off before i even leave the club and as soon as i take my coat off when i get home i wash my face. It just feels so heavy and weird. I do my makeup kinda light for work too. heavy enough to be seen under the lights, but light enough to look natrual. its a good look for me. plus i dont really have to worry about putting on a whole bunch. outside of work I wear chapstick and a ponytail. if I feel like it, i might, maybe, wear dark eyeliner to go to my favorite dance club/bar.

    I don't wear makeup these days, I'm letting my skin breathe and people have commented on it! They ask if I'm using any 'glow' products (lol!) But I think it's because of a change in my facial routine.

    It took me so long to break my makeup addiction and be able to go outside without any foundation on!

    Now i hardly wear any thing except mascara and lipgloss during the day.

    I was using foundation while dancing...and then was fighting massive blemishes for 3 weeks!! So, now I don't wear foundation...but, my make-up inside the club is just very bright (I have hazel eyes, so I like to wear shocking colors that bring them out).

    At home, I shower, pull my hair up and don't put on makeup. I think that I look very beautiful without it. Now that my blemishes are gone, my skin looks radiant, I have natural long lashes, natural full lips...so all I really do is put on some lipgloss and go. I like the natural look. And, besides, with a little 16 month old running around, who has time to do "the do"?

    There is a way to look beautiful without make-up it's dermopigmentation. It is more commonly called permanent make-up but I don't like this word. A lot of horrors and bad job are associated with this term and having worked with plastic surgeon, I prefer dermopigmentation which is the medical term. I work very naturally, I just enhnance your feature and natural beauty. You would be amazed of the results. I do eyebrows (hair stroke) eyelash, lips and even areolas (nipples).
