Do you wear makeup when you're traveling? Why/why not?

If I don't have to, I won't, especially if I'm traveling all day.  There are many times when I do, because the minute I step off the plane, I have to go to an event or a meeting.  So if it's necessary, yes, but my preference is not to!

Thanks to...

Is there a such thing as being too young or too old for makeup?

Is there a such thing as being too young or too old for makeup? Why? Please be respectful and mindful in your comments!

I think there's a too young--I don't think it's appropriate for a five year old to be wearing makeup on a regular basis. I totally get playing dress-up, recitals, and the like, but...

What's one type of beauty product you're not interested in trying? Why?

Should your manicure color match your pedicure color? Do you match yours?

I don't think they need to.  It just seems too confining! I don't have a problem with it, but I like to switch it up--especially since I change the polish on my toe nails less frequently than my fingernails!

How do you choose what perfume to wear?

How do you choose what perfume to wear?

How do you choose what perfume to wear? By the season? How you feel? Occasion?

I'd say more by occasion or season than how I feel. I tend to reach for lighter scents for spring/summer and daytime wear, heavier scents for evenings out.

How important are eyebrows to a look? Share your thoughts!

Very important! With an eye look, they certainly frame the face and what makeup you're wearing on the eyes, but with well-groomed brows, it can instantly make you look more polished even if you don't have much makeup (or any!) on.

How do you decide what makeup to wear each day? (Or week, month, whatever.)

How do you resist impulse beauty buys? Share your advice!

It's the same thing I do with pretty much anything that isn't necessary/needed: I tell myself 1) it's too expensive; 2) it's unnecessary; 3) gauge whether it will go on sale later; 4) tell myself to wait two weeks and see how I feel then.
