Do you style your hair & wear make-up while on your WDW vacation?

[seetheworld]

How much time do you spend getting ready in the morning? Do you try to look your best, just presentable or don't care as it's vacation time? The make-up question post here has me curious. Thanks!

i personally am a little laid back when i do my hair and make up while on vacation, i will but on a little make up and lipgloss and maybe put my hair in a ponytail or do something that doesnt take much time, i dont like wasting my vaction doing my hair and make up

I barely wear make-up at home and I'm going to wear it in the Fla heat and humidity, running around a theme park. so no I don't style my hair other than brushing it and leave with it wet most days, and no eye make-up or lipstick and only a little cover-up if needed somewhere and possibly some blush. Entire time other than shower 5 minutes.

I think I saw the thread you are talking about and I was amazed.

I do my usual makeup, but I'm a "5 minute" gal, anyway. Just mineral foundation brushed on, a little blush, mascara, and lipstick.

As for my hair, I try to get it cut about a week before each trip. I do the normal style and hairspray, and it holds up pretty well. On our trip this January, however, I hadn't gotten it cut in a while, so I just figured, the heck with it- I wore it pulled back every day. I looked pretty awful, but it was easy to take care of!!

I usually do the same thing I do at home. I always like to look good. And when I look good, I feel good. I do try to speed up my routine a few minutes.

My hair is kind of long and can be unruly if I don't blow dry it (flat on top, wavy and unmanageable on the bottom ) so no matter where I am I do my hair. As far as makeup, I used to be someone who wouldn't go out without being fully made up (well I guess you figured that when you see where I am from ) but since my kids have been born I only use a little foundation and blush, one coat of mascara and a little lip gloss. I do the same on vacation.

I just wore my hair in a ponytail and did my makeup. I don't do it real fancy to begin with ,but if I don't wear it I look horrible. Some days I did where my hair down too, or with a barret. I have just shoulder length hair ,so it isn't too long to get in the way. I'm there for fun though, and not to win a beauty prize, but i don't want to scare people either!

Go with the mineral foundation, blush, a little color on the eyelids and mascara. I always forget to put the lipstick on or if I do forget to reapply it. I'll be ready before my dilly-dallyer boys(that includes DH).

Jergan's has lotion with glow for your face now... It works great to give you a little color- nothing else except lip gloss/screen.
Short hair for me for WDW. I have long hair and go to WDW about once every 5 years. I hack off my hair to something short and fun, wash it, towel dry it and go! DH cries when I cut off the hair- but who cares, it grows back right!

When we go out to dinner in the evening, yes. When we get up early to schlepp around the park, no. I put my hair in a ponytail and wear a golf visor and sunglasses. I do have to add though, two years ago I made it to the hotseat in Who Wants to be A Millionaire and I have to say I was MORTIFIED that I looked the way I did. That was probably the only time I regretted not wearing any makeup.

Running a brush through my hair is about as fancy as I get -- but that's it at home too. I always watch my stylist when I get my hair cut -- but I can never do it myself.

As for make up I wear it at WDW like I do at home. Moisterizer, eyeshadow, perhaps a bit of eye pencil, a little blush and that's it. I carry lip stuff with me all day though -- usually chapstick or one with a little color/flavor.

I try to look presentable - I run a brush through my hair, maybe pull it back if I feel like it - a little bit of lipstick with SPF in it and I'm pretty much ready to go. Why go to beauty extremes if I'm just going to be outside all day?

 

[CRSNDSNY]

I don't usually do my hair like I do at home, but I do try to do something a little faster with it.
I do put on my usual makeup -- I won't leave the house without it!

 

[kribit]

Little bit of makeup with sunscreen and hair up in a clip. The humidity does not agree with my hair (it looks like a frizz bomb), so it's up the entire trip.

 

[PlutosFriend]

Lately when we go to WDW or other theme parks, I style my hair as usual, throw on some lip stick and that is it! I need more make-up to look presentable in pictures ....but..somehow I only end up in about 2 of them anyway.

I do what I do on the weekend at home - not much of anything!! Wash & wear hairstyle is what I need with two little kids, so it's LOW maintenance. Moisturizer w/sunscreen, concealer (can you say DARK circles!?! ) and eye liner just to look awake, and some sort of lip stuff w/spf - that's it. I'm just not a big make up kinda' girl, especially while walking around in the sun all day. Can't see taking the time, but that's me!

I have to blowdry my hair every morning as it is naturally wavy and looks terrible if I don't. Other then that I use a small amount of lipstick and blush. Same as I do at home. I would love to be able to just put my hair in a ponytail but I can't grow it out that long with such a wavy mess!

 

[DawnM]

I have always gotten haircuts that will allow me to wash, gel and go without blowdrying or curling. I hate primping!

I usually wear foundation and a little color on my lips. That is IT! And normally I put that on in the car on my way to wherever!

I live in an area where people seem to spend an hour in front of the mirror just to go to the grocery store!

I am a CA girl and just can't do it! As natural as possible when it comes to hair and make-up is my rule!

When we go out to dinner in the evening, yes. When we get up early to schlepp around the park, no.

That's me. Especially in the summer, I would rather shower in the evening after getting sweaty during the day. I try to look nice for *something* so that we can get a good family picture, but generally that will not be a day we're getting up early for the parks.

I wear a tinted moisturizer with SPF, put on some eyeliner, and pull my hair back in a ponytail.

I gauge how much I do depending on the weather. If it's really humid, I don't bother doing much (cuz I know it's pointless) but if it's just hot, but not humid,
I blow dry, put a few curls in my stick straight hair and then a ponytail because my hair is very thick and it's too hot to wear it down. Then a little makeup, foundation, mascara and a touch of eyeliner. Less than I do at home, but enough to make me look at least 1/2 way decent in pics.
