Title: How much makeup do you wear?
Post by: barbiegirl on 05 December 2019, 09:46:16 am
I personally hate wearing makeup to work...if I do I never wear any eye makeup as it just gets everywhere and looks awful

I’m finding myself wearing none more often and haven’t had a single client complain or notice, if anything they prefer it! Anyone else?

I've started taking a little more time with mine paying attention to concealor and techniques which make make up last longer, look fresher, rub off less. I've never been a pile-it-oner and I'm pretty slow on the uptake I need to be convinced or see something make a difference before I'll invest time or money. I do tend to pick up tips/benefit from photoshoots which involve make-up artists although I always instruct them to keep their work on me to a minimum, I know I don't get on with lashes or anything too scary.

I wear some eye liner and shadow with a hint of mascara. Eyebrows filled in as they are gappy. No foundation but lots of moisturiser. Lip stick and that is about it.

Never bothered with all that microblading, highlighting and contouring or false lashes. I see young women all the time with amazing made up faces but it must take time and effort to do it. Nothing bad there but it all looks so shiny and slippery and not ideal if getting sweaty with a man who wants to stroke your face or give you sloppy wet kisses etc.

Not brave enough to go completely make up free though. I know I look far better with mine on. My mirror tells me every day.

I remember when I first started I used to really spend time of my makeup and put quite a lot on. Looked lovely, but by the end of the shift it looked like I was about to do the walk of shame

I keep it fairly light/neutral: foundation, sometimes a dust of powder if I use a liquid foundation, natural looking eyebrow pencil as mine are pale/sketchy, top eyeliner, eyeshadow, waterproof mascara and well-blotted lipstick.

I'm fair with freckles and look awful when fully made up. I like a super light foundation which I mix myself using two different shades and a drop of gradual self-tan. Bit of blusher and maybe a bit of eyeshadow just on the lids.
If I don't have time for foundation or a slick of powder, as long as I have a bit of mascarra I am happy. I feel naked without mascarra 😊
Not sure if men even notice, I have met most significant men in my life at the swimming pool or on a beach. Not a scrap of make up, rats tail hair and goggle marked eyes  ;D

I get semi permanent lashes applied and eye brows tinted every couple of weeks (did this even before I started escorting) so for work I just apply a little light foundation I get spray tanned around every ten days so only a light foundation is needed. If I remember I’ll apply mascara to my bottom lashes. I’ve never been big on make up unless I’m on a girls night then I’ll get it professionally applied

I wear light foundation, pink blusher, mascara, fill in eye brows with eye brow powder and a nice pink lipstick.
I swear by Neutrogena face masks (I use 3-4 a week), Neutrogena or Simple face wash and simple moisturiser. Good skin care is very important. Simple face wipes good for taking make up off and the best false eyelashes for nights out in my opinion are Ardell!

Snap me too Georgie, my mascara is like 4 years old ;D
Though I do use good skincare products and wear spf50 daily so skin is taken care off.

No need for eyeliner as I had them tattooed years ago, so just lipstick for me.

For regular every day in calls, I use a little mascara and red lipstick.  It's quick to reapply and touch up for a few moments between sessions.  I like to keep my schedule tight, especially on my high volume days, so I like low maintenance.

 If I have a dinner date or longer engagement with a regular, I get more sophisticated with makeup (and appearance in general) as they are paying me to have more prep time for the model look.  I'm happy to wear no or almost no makeup though, and some of my regulars prefer this.  Either way, it's important to use makeup that doesn't rub off. Last thing I need is a regular client with makeup on his skin rushing to a meeting or to a wife/gf after our session.
Title: Makeup during bookings
Post by: MissB on 30 August 2023, 07:50:16 am
I normally avoid make up unlike WhatsApp profile incase they have a partner. Still look fine without. Do people wear make up during bookings?

Yes I wear make up, mine rarely rubs off and I'm always mindful of any marks. I make sure I do not smear it onto white shirts and will dab any stray marks of their face. In my experience many with partners do not mind, or at least that is what they say. Quite a few like me wearing red lipstick.

I don't wear it beyond a bit of mascara and some lip balm, and I don't always wear the mascara. I dislike the feeling of it on my skin and it takes more time, although I don't wear makeup generally so I suppose if I'd had more practice at putting it on I'd be quicker.

I do use great skincare and look after my teeth, nails and so on, so it's not as if no effort goes in (and my eyebrows are microbladed after I plucked them to death in the nineties :D) but I don't equate effort with having coloured paint on my face.

I use mascara, and light foundation, brown or violet shadows for my green eyes. Nude or red lipstick depends. And I invest a lot in good skincare products. I never sleep without a skincare routine. In the morning too. Lots of thermal water to keep my skin hidratate.

I’m don’t wear make up when I’m not working, never have really only if I go out on an evening then it’s tinted moisturiser, bronzer and lipstick. It’s the same for my appointments, I like to keep it light and natural.

I use make up to make me look completely different to how the real me looks.  Same as how I style my hair and dress for clients.

Its basically so I can create a second persona.  I can shut me off once my uniform of lingerie. Hair. Make up and lashes go on.  Its how I compartmentalise my work so I don't get affected mentally by the occasional egotistical hobbyist who likes to throw snide comments etc.

Thank god for makeup in my case  ;D I have big under eye circles that makes me look like a zombie if I don’t conceal them, I use the one from Huda, it’s hard to find a good concealer… although they are all so damn expensive for the quantity.
I use a water proof mascara and eyeliner, foundation , setting powder, red or pink lipstick, depending on the outfit I’m wearing, I like to add some light rosy blush on my chicks and eyelids, makes me look fresher and healthy lol. and at the end I set everything with a setting spray so it lasts me through a few bookings. It takes me about 30min to do it.

I been doing this for almost 30 years.
The only makeup would be lippy.

That's it.
Also no perfume.

So none of it comes off on the client.

Hardly any because I offer facials with my bookings so I need to be able to wash and re apply easily. I have foundation with a serum in it for a nice glow. And a bronzer and mascara that’s it. If I wore loads of make up I would end up looking a mess all day ha ha

I do not use any type of makeup on reservations.

In order to keep it this way, I take care of my skin with many treatments, such as mesotherapy, deep cleansing, exfoliations... This way I have flawless skin so I don't need a foundation.

I have microshading on my eyebrows and I dye and lift my eyelashes. That's all.

This is because I do facials on almost all of my bookings, I couldn't be bothered to constantly reapply my makeup.

Mascara, eyeliner, lipliner and bronzer.

I try to always take good care of my skin. I never wear heavy make up whilst working anymore. Mascara, something to fill my eyebrows in and pink or nude lipstick.
