You know how when your face feels so clean and awesome, the last thing on earth you want to do is put on makeup? So I decided to boycott it. I have been SO SICK of getting ready these days.
My whole routine consisted of concealer under the eyes, tinted moisturizer/foundation, powder, eye shadow, eye liner, mascara, blush, sometimes bronzer. Ugh, I've been so over it. And while I never wore a lot of it, it took a long time and I hate feeling like I'm caking crap on my face.
Now my routine consists of eye shadow (a neutral color just to take out the shine), eye liner and mascara. Maybe a tiny bit of powder if my nose is shiny. Takes like 3 minutes and I'm done. I prob looked better before but I'm really loving this.
While on this new kick, I bought a Clarisonic Mia - I'm lazy and this makes washing your face so easy. I use it at night and then put on moisturizer and my face just feels and looks so much better (another reason I can cut back on the makeup).
It's liberating. Give it a try.
P.S. Disclaimer: I do still "get ready" for evenings out and special occasions etc and even better, now it's actually kind of fun because it's not a chore.

what kind of facial did u get? My skin is NASTY
I think it was called "Better than Botox" (hahaha) but really, I just asked for the longest one they had and that is what she gave me.
Look for one that has peels in it and extractions and exfoliation/anti-aging and you'll love it. Your face feels so awesome afterwards that you really just don't want to wear makeup. It's a great way to start and with the Clarisonic brush, it's a great way to keep going. It just scrubs so well that moisturizer has a cleaner surface to work with and works 100X better.
LOVE IT.
I almost wrote a post about this the other day. After a week camping at our cabin in AK {no makeup involved} I was almost repulsed by the thought of putting make-up back on. Mascara is a necessity but I hate wearing it. Hate the feel of it. Face moisturizers I love however.
what the heck is a clarisonic brush? forgive my ignorance. Never even had a spa facial...
