Ex in my personal experiences with girls and stuff i grew up with and even kids i see to this day i think it is kinda normal for little girls to want to wear make up and things like that to feel pretty and or to look older.

exactly..sad, but true. ha natural beauty died out with the cavemen.. ::(: i'm such a "guy's girl"..yet when it comes to mascara, i freak out...haha so lame
 
I actually admire the courage you must possess to have done that Exquisite. I can't leave the house without foundation powder and lipstick. I honestly can't remember the last time I did.
I'm ghostly pale; from lack of sunlight, so I need it otherwise I look like a Zombie.
I hope one day I'll find the courage to go out without it like you did.

aw, that means a lot. :) i know, i look like a zombie without mascara..but its been 3 days..& im doing well, i think..at first it was emotional hell, but after a while, you kinda forget that youre going au naturel..

Exquisite........What i meant in my post was is that you may look totally hot without make up but just dont realize it.

but its the realization thats close to impossible..after years of building my confidence up with it, its hard to see myself without it, its almost like its not me.

Awwww well done on challenging yourself. :) i'm the same i always wear mascara, i wear it because i have quite small eyes and have always wanted bigger eyes lol. Guess we always want what we haven't got.

Well then like i said earlier stick with what makes you happy and what you like. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that. Makeup looks great on some women.

well, its a little bit of my own treatment for myself. i was always extremly uncomfortable, anxious, & self-conscious around my ex, did i look ok, was my hair ok, did i look fat, did i have something in my teeth? & its totally natural..but after a while, youre supposed to be able to get over it. i wasnt able to. so i decided that i need to get used to who i am & learn how to deal with myself, before i deal with someone else. so au naturel it is :D

Well i have seen enough to determine that you would be attractive in any scenario lol. Trust me i would not worry about your looks if i were you. I know when people have that type problem its easier said that done...but there is def not a problem there.

lol thank you, but its exactly as you said, easier said than done. ha sometimes i look at myself & im like, omg, im like a man in a wig. lol im just weird that way

I used to have a fear if people would judge me differently not having any makeup on in my teenager years.I'm in my 20's now and don't wear makeup at all!Sometime's i will put on mascara or clear lipgloss but only when my skin looks good:)
After i stopped wearing makeup and i lost weight & my skin improved i noticed i still got looks from guys with out my secerity blanket of makeup! So i didn't feel ugly as i thought i looked:)
 
For what it's worth I quite like when girls wear little or no makeup. When makeup is the norm, going without becomes exotic. Nothing wrong with looking human.
