Valarie………..I hope you fare better than I. My make-up days have been over for a very very long time. No matter what I have tried, like yourself, my eyes burn, water and turn red. That also includes moisturizers for the face. It is a conundrum to be sure.

As with Lu Ann, my makeup days are over. I canuse Oil of "Delay", but nothing around my eyes. Life is easier this way, I tell myself.

I guess I am like you then, my makeup days are pretty much over, it’s just with having daughters, my oldest seems to think I should get up every morning and put it on like I did years ago. I have tried to explain to her that I can’t but she doesn’t seem to understand. I think alot of it has to do with a really vain sister-inlaw, that told her that you need to get up and get dressed, and do makeup, and do your hair every morning before leaving the house. I have been getting up brushing my hair(I have never really curled it, since it is as fine as babies hair)and that is it. I actually don’t even like looking at myself anymore because my eyes are so different than they use to be, so why bother I guess with the little bit of makeup I can wear. I am very lucky, as I have always had a good complection, so I really don’t need to wear base anyway, but with blonde hair, you can’t see my eye lashes, and makeup tends to bring out my blue eyes. I guess one day she will grow up and understand that not everyone wears makeup.
Oh and thanks for the replies, it’s nice to have other people understand what is going on.
