Tired of being mocked for wearing noticeable makeup.

I hate that some people genuinely think if your makeup isn’t completely nude and just to enhance your face like a smoothening filter, your makeup is “too much”.

“Pink/red lipstick is attention seeking! Wear beige/soft browns.”

“Mascara is dramatic! Opt for a simple minimum liner- or nothing.”

“Wearing blush is clownish! Leave your cheeks untouched.”

“Eyeshadow makes you look emo, and glitter eyelids are so attention seeking! Just wear a dot concealer alone.”

Granted, a lot of this is coming from my Asian relatives who are obsessed with “natural, pure” beauty, and can’t fathom that maybe I want a casual brown smoky eye sometimes. Maybe I even dare to wear a brown lip liner- the horror!! I am literally the only one (in this circle) that doesn’t want Kim Kardashain levels of nude makeup all the time.

What’s so wrong with some glam??
