I hate make up! Can't stand the way it makes my skin feel, and I hate seeing people with it caked on! I do wear a little bit- mascara/blush, but if I wasn't told how tired I look without it I would never wear it.

Even if I look tired, I don't wear makeup everyday. I wear it once a month. maybe.
I wish I felt good enough to do this! I'm incredibly fair and my eye lashes are pretty much white. So I feel like a ghost unless I wear something that doesn't make me look dead. I hate getting the "you look tired" comments.

Amen sister! Makeup makes me feel so gross.
I have really translucent skin, especially under my eyes, so I always have dark circles. Makeup would help, but I hate the feel of it. Plus I like rebeling against the idea that professional women must wear makeup.

Same here. I bought an UD eyeshadow palette and wanted to try it out so I work makeup to work and people were freaking out: "OMG WHY ARE YOU WEARING MAKEUP?!"

I generally don't wear makeup unless I have a giant zit or something. And then, I only bother if I have any extra fucks to give.

My UO: you shouldn't post your condolences on a loss reintro if it's more than a day or two after it was posted. If you were that close to the person PM them. I'm sure they could live without the reminder of their loss from having that thread dragged back to the top of the board and/or wouldn't be overly upset that people they don't know didn't say "sorry for your loss" days after the fact.
Not speaking from experience, just getting this show on the road lol

I hadn't thought about it, but I agree with you. There's really no need to dredge it up again.

This was me up until about 2 years ago. I went to a makeup show and they showed me how to put it on. I feel so much better about my dark circles. I can put everything on in less than 5 min

My UO- I dislike going on long vacations. Anything longer than three nights away makes me antsy. We have a week long vacation booked for April and while I am SO excited to get away, seven nights away is daunting.

Hmmmm... disagree. My loss occurred on theotherplace, but I read every single condolence. A lot of them came in while I was laying in bed recovering from my surgery and crying (2-3 days after posting), and I appreciated every single one. I especially appreciated people dredging up the thread a week later or messaging me even if they didn't really know me, because it made me feel like my baby wasn't forgotten. A lot of people IRL didn't do that bc they hadn't experienced that type of loss and thought dredging it up again would be painful, but for me it was an amazing show of support.

I don't go get the mail without make-up.
But I have stopped wearing eyeliner everyday - we moved, and now i have a 90 minute commute in the mornings - getting up even earlier to put on eyeliner (even though it takes like 60 seconds) just seems daunting at 5am
I don't know if this is an unpop op or what but the salon I used to go to, I stopped going when the hairstylists started wearing scrubs to work. I work in healthcare and the last thing I want to see when I want to relax is people wearing scrubs for fun.

Yup I'm with adorebel on this one. I had my loss on TD as well. A few months after my loss (mine was very early) my BMB made a Light A Candle - Hour Of Silence post for all of the loss moms. When I got the notification that I was tagged and saw the post I cried. Not because I was upset, but because someone else still thought about my baby when no one else IRL ever mentioned it anymore. It warmed my heart.
I like the hour of silence on BMBs. June14 did one and I absolutely cried and loved it. However, I'm with Ray about the loss posts. When I was coming back over here I just wanted to feel normal again. That was why I was here. I didn't want to keep seeing my re-intro every day for the next 2 weeks.
adorebel, danib, I orignially agreed with Ray here as I thought it would be hurtful seeing it come up again and again. With the additional information here that makes a lot of sense. Thanks for your perspective
@led Hmm, and now this. Sorry you felt that way.
I guess this is just a tough subject because everyone is different and you don't really know what the situation is unless someone tells you.

I had no opinion on this, I think you tagged the wrong person. I was just UO the salon I used to go to randomly hahahaha.

We had the same amazing BMB - June'15! The first Light A Candle thread was the week I lost my baby. I remember it well.

I wish I felt good enough to do this! I'm incredibly fair and my eye lashes are pretty much white. So I feel like a ghost unless I wear something that doesn't make me look dead. I hate getting the "you look tired" comments.
I am very fair-skinned as well, but I have dark eyelashes, so I hadn't really thought of it this way. I can imagine I would feel the same way as you, especially when fucksticks feel the need to comment.

Total post fail. tagging the wrong people. sorry
As with everything surrounding loss, it's totally personal preference and I see why you would see it that way, too! I would just rather err on the side of reaching out/being reached out to than ignoring/being ignored. A grieving person can always choose not to respond if s/he's not ready to, but my guess is that someone who needs support is likely to feel embarrassed to keep asking for it (at least I did).

I have a friend who has the same issue and she gets her eye lashes dyed. I can't imagine doing the same, because I feel like it would just burn my eye lashes off lol!
I love make-up. Always have. Everyday I wear it to work. I wear a tinted moisturizer. So it isn't really caked on. If I didn't wear it I think people would worry.
