For me its a sensory issues, i cant stand the smell of the stuff. Also i fear not being able to take it off later. There is also the waste of time it appears to be for me, why waste putting slap on only to take it off at the end of the day? ive got enough boring routines to do teeth, showering, laundry without adding on lippy!
Generally, I feel like an "It", like I have no gender. I hate today's fashion because it's too tubular and there's no way I can fit in those stupid petit clothes. I never wear make up, but I keep vowing to myself that I will for an extremely special occasion (i.e, NOT dating because I have a feeling I'll never get a date). My clothes are all boring and ugly, plus my voice is too deep (but not man-like) to ever be that stupid nagging giggling and chatty teen voice that a lot of girls my age seem to have. So, in short, I'm an it in a she body.

I won't leave the house without it. I even put my makeup on and did my hair when I went to the hospital to give birth. Wouldn't want any bad pictures! I'm very perfectionist when it comes to how I look. I may not actually talk to anyone when I go out, but I at least want to look good.
I don't feel right without a little eyeliner, shadow and lip gloss. I like to dress fashionable but only if it's comfy. And those mofo tags have to be cut out!
Never really wear make-up, hate the feel of it on my skin. Tried putting it on myself a few times but the results were disasterous.
The only time I wear it is if I'm going out with girlfriends and one of them wants to do my hair and make-up. I think I look better without it but one friend seems to really enjoy doing it for me. I know it makes her a bit sad if I don't let her, so I just let her get on with it and TBH although I hate the way it feels on my skin, I do like going out and feeling like a normal person occasionally.
i always wear makeup mostly to look like I fit in. but I NEVER wear lipstick! I cannot stand the smell or the feel of it on my lips. Chapstick is completely different to me though. Yay chapstick.
By makeup do you mean foundation? I can't stand the way that feels but I'm lucky to have an even skin tone so I don't really need it. I wear eye makeup to varying degrees and lip gloss which never lasts because my major constant stim is rubbing my lips together. It looks stupid but I do it without thinking. I'm doing it now.

I rub my lips together CONSTANTLY, as such I am always reapplying my lip gloss or chap stick every 20 min.

I'm glad I'm not the only one walking around looking lipless.
i love make up!! !
however i dont always wear it. about half the time i go out without a spot of it on.
1. because i'm lazy
2. because i dont want to forget how i really look. XD
I hardly ever wear make-up.... I like buying it but I forget to put it on. I don't really believe people see the difference either. Same with jewelry. I guess i just don't have a 'put on make-up, rings, necklace, earrings modus in my morning ritual.
I do only buy and wear nice clothes though, mosly black. I never forget to put on clothes so I'm totally ok
I sell makeup for a living, but sometimes I can leave my house without makeup on (I just end up coming home from work with loads on). The least I'll do is put on a tinted lip balm.
I am a freak about skincare, though. Three masks a week.

I'm an aspie, but i love fashion, perfume, doing my hair, etc. i only wear make-up on special occasions, though. but i guess, in essence i am a Lipstick Aspie. i like playing video games, is that masculine?
