He burst in laughter
watching her creating
a “no makeup” makeup look
He wanted to say
‘You look beautiful without
all these expensive bottles and palettes’
But the concentration on her face
the brushes moved with her skilled hand
He saw an enthusiastic girl in a craft studio
enjoying creative elaboration
Women without makeup are the most attractive .

Seems to be yet another age thing, hahaha. Why it takes people so long to discover all the life ‘truths’? It’s a shame. For me it is a gradual, painstaking mass-aligning of others’ views with my own long-held values ๐. I thought it was obvious ๐. Anyways, I do see the creative aspect of it too ๐. “No makeup” makeup look retains both honesty and creative freedom :D.

My Carole hardly ever used make-up, she had lovely silky skin, like most redheads…

Cassa I just love this. My husband tells me he likes me best when I first wake up. I didnโt wear any makeup for years and started to in my thirties. I would be the girl enjoying playing with nice make up. Haha you are stunning Cassa and need no makeup. Sending love and hugs to you. โค๏ธ๐ฆโค๏ธ

I love that most men prefer natural no makeup for their women. And women wear makeup for our pleasure. It’s intricate. โบ๏ธ

Never understood the no makeup look. Just leave out the makeup and it’s done. Or maybe not. Haha. ๐

Nicely done, Cassa. For women, I think makeup looks good and natural looks good. What better changeable canvas than the human face? As a man, I’ve worn makeup when playing in bands, photo shoots, videos and such. I loved the transformation. David Bowie was king at it for men.

I gathered that from the playing in a band. And I agree with you on WP’s strange glitch.
