I usually wear either eyeliner or dark eyeshadow smudged into the lash line, mascara, powder, lip gloss, and maybe bronzer if I'm feeling pasty. Eyebrows are done. Make-up should be fun and flattering, not a chore. Every woman is different, and that's okay.

Heh - for me, the minimum is eyeliner and eyebrow pencil. I don't own a concealer, I don't wear mascara (except maybe once a week for two weeks if I get a "free" mascara with the purchase of something else, then I forget I own it and throw it away 2 years later when I discover it at the bottom of my makeup bag).

I wear lipstick rarely, but I do own 2 colored lipsticks. One is a funky goth black-purple that actually looks awesome if I put a tiny dab on and spread it thinly. The other is a nearly-translucent pale pink, more like a gloss than anything else.

USUALLY though, I wear foundation, bronzer, eyebrow pencil, eyeliner as my daily "face." Sometimes I add eye shadow. That's it.

That's a lot of makeup for me! Even with the nude lip and neutral colors.

But no, I haven't been to Long Island. What's going on there ... makeup like Mimi from the Drew Carey Show?

I would call that just right for a neutral look which is what my friends where talking about. Sandra has a 'completed' face but it's still a natural look however she has completed the look wearing all the make up components and her look isn't over done.

Here are other examples

False eyelashes as part of an everyday look? That's not happening for me.

foundation/power
eyeshadow
blush
mascara
eyeliner
eyebrows shaped
Lipgloss/Lipstick

you can add more like concealer, bronzer, etc. if needed but you at least need to be wearing the basics or you might as well not wear any make up at all.

Do you agree?

All I wear is eye makeup. All day everyday. I get pimples here and there, but don't bother to conceal it. Oh well.

False eye lashes are just an add on and is in comparison to wearing mascara which enhances your eye lashes. Same difference.
