Ive never really had people tell me I wear too much make-up, my day wear consists of foundation, concealer (if needed), blusher, mascara and finishing powder. Sometimes I add eye liner but not often.
But recently, I was told by my little sister that I always wear too much, but I ignore her because she doesnt even know how to apply mascara! Shes 19! She never wears make-up, so even when Ive worn only blush and mascara, she thinks its too much...
As for work colleagues making 'comments', I never got them for my make-up but I did get them for my clothes. I like to look just so when I come into work and I like to wear clothes that are more unusual on dress down days, Ive had sooo many snidey comments that Im virtually immune to them now.
From my experience, it is simply jealousy. That sounds big headed, but the majority of these women were unkept and they would whine if they even so much as had to moisturise their skin because it was dry or cut their hair because it was getting too long.
After I worked this out, I realised that the more they b*tched about me, the better I actually felt, because it meant I must have looked nice.
