Ignore this - I've already asked this question before but I forgot.
 

Except to be conned out of money by make-up companies so that the bosses can get rich, why do you wear make-up?

I'm not trying to annoy anyone. I just want to know as I've only worn it once in my life and then my skin itched for ages afterwards and I got an eye infection. So I have no experience really (which has saved me money to spend on textbooks, food etc).

Oly, Im sure you made a thread about this not long ago, would you like me to find it and link it for you?I think it had lots of helpful answers :)

Aagh I forgot sorry :s

I'll look at it. Please do link it.

Sorry.

I wear it because it makes me feel good! For me personally it's a form of self-care, which helps cheer me up when I'm depressed/have urges. I also love bright colours and sparkles so being able to paint them on myself is fun :)

Ok fair enough - I used to like having face painting as a kid. Except for the time I ended up with a rash...
