Yeah i did note that this list was just cruelty free not vegan above.
I completely get your POV. For me make up was always for myself and it makes me happy. Most of the girls I know don’t wear make up to impress males it’s for themselves which i think is great. It’s like putting on your favourite dress or jewellery to wear and it has the power to transform but also to express yourself. I was never an accessory gal so i turned to make up. I am completely comfortable going around make up free and I do it a lot of the time, but I’m also completely comfortable putting make up on and having a bit of fun with it. I think as long as we don’t feel the pressure to the point that we won’t leave the house without it, then balance is okay.
i just found that the other day and was shocked that cruelty free isnt vegan, u would of thought the two go hand in had. dont get me wrong there was a time in my life i loved make up and id definitely use again for special occasion. but i literally felt like a wasted hours of my life putting it on, i hated the morning routine having to do that took so much longer. I especially hated having to take it off, when i was really tired and forget and have it half way down my face, apparently it also causes wrinkles? i find that alot of women in spain dont bother using it either, which is great for me here but when i was in england ppl were asking me why i dont do myself up a lil bit more lol !
Oh that is a no no asking why you do or don’t wear it! But i do understand the culture in england is a bit more fashion focused so that would explain why.
Haha it definitely isn’t good for your skin if you don’t take it off! I’m lucky I’ve always had good skin and my make up probably only takes about 10 mins haha.
