Ladies, when you go to WDW or Universal...

[Dan Murphy]

A touch of blush and I'm off...........



Oh, this was for only the ladies......

 

[welovedisneyx4]

Make up? Fixing my hair? On vacation?? NEVER!!!

On our last trip to DW, I even forgot my curling iron . Luckily, I had just gotten my bangs cut and just put some gel in them and they were fine. My bangs are short, so all I do is curl them and the rest goes into a pony tail.

Dan, you are more than welcome to wear !

even shower at night (normally and am shower person) whe at WDW. I can't really afford to shower twice a day because my skin will dry out and revolt (I moisterize daily in New Orleans!!) even with moisterizer. So I shower at night and rarely dry my hair! It usually ends up in a ponytail the next morning anyway!

Me too!!!!

 

[PenskeSth1]

Don't wear make-up either. Can't imagine wearing it in this heat. YUCK

I wear a light foundation with spf in it. It seems to stay and not sweat off as bad as regular sunscreen for face, and I never go outside w/o sunscreen on my face. A little mascara usually. But that's about all. That's what I normally wear, day-to-day.

I only wear make-up for special occasions anyway. The only thing I put on everyday is a bit of powder for my nose, or it will look like an oil slick

I do pack the full "kit" though. I always do at least one nice sit down dinner, and I also wear it when I go to DTD/PI.

I use a SPF tinted moisturizer in the summer and some lipstick/lipgloss. I would like to wear makeup so you can tell I have a face (very, very pale) but it just melts off in the heat.

 

[powellrj]

last year was the first year I didn't even pack make-up, and I won't this year. It was a very freeing experience!! And I don't wear much to begin with!!

That's me, too. Just enough mascara and eyebrow color (I have blonde lashes and brows) for possible photo ops. That's all I wear anyway, never have liked foundation or other stuff.

Doesn't all that face paint look lovely after a few go arounds on Splash Mountain, and a few hours in the hot Florida sunshine?!

Makeup- full face - no exceptions.

But I live here & am used to it.

I also ( like someone else mentioned) take powder & lipstick or lipgloss into the parks with me for touchups.

I will confess that I will put on makeup if we are going to DTD and out to a nice restaurant for dinner. During the day at the parks...mascara & hair in a ponytail. I've even thought about getting my hair whacked off, but then I wouldn't be able to put it in a ponytail. I have bangs and in most of my pictures, my bangs are soaking wet and I love TERRIBLE, but I have a HUGE smile on my face!

I don't wear make up on the parks and don't evenev bring it on the trip... I " glow" too much in the heat to wear any plus I am very concerned about sunburn and put sun screen on several times a day... so i look all shiny but happy with a BIG stupid UGLY sun hat..

 

[TINK61]

As I posted before, I do wear make-up. It's just a habit. I live in a very humid part of the country, so I guess I'm just used to it. I don't fret too much about my hair, make-up and clothes when I'm on vaca at Disney or anywhere else. My philosophy is I go to see - not to be seen. So in spite of my make-up habit, I still end up looking frumpy (uhh - comfortable) anyway.

 

[castlegazer]

Ok, I'll chime in - I do wear makeup to the parks as I wear makeup every day. I have rosacea on my face and it looks realy bad in pictures if I don't wear a base foundation. I would look horrific in my mind if I went makeupless. It may not be true but it would make me feel like I did. I don't find that it "melts" off in the heat. I wear a good foundation and mascara as I also have blond eyelashes that again, if not for mascara would make me look awful in pics if I didn't have any on. That's all the makeup I wear on a daily basis and it looks like I don't wear anything at all, but it makes me feel better about myself. So there! Please don't make fun of us who choose to try and hide our flaws through makeup application.

The Florida heat and the water doesn't really make my makeup run at all. Waterproof mascara does the trick.

If my makeup smudges at all, it gives me a sort of mussed up raccoon look, which is somewhat interesting and infinitely preferable to the alternative of wearing nothing at all and looking positively ill.

Does anyone EVER wear enough makeup to have it running off their faces like Tammy Faye Baker? I don't think that's ever a good idea, hot sun or not.

I have very uneven skin tones, so I always wear foundation. It helps my skin look better and it also has a sunscreen built in.

I also wear a little blush, mascara and lipstick. This is pretty much what I wear all the time, not just at WDW.

 

[pat fan]

Full face here,no matter the cold/heat/rain whatnot. I would look positively DEAD without it! Dark circles under my eyes,blotchy complexion,no lashes to speak of...That said, I can't imagine wearing enough to have it "run off" in the heat either . Light foundation,a little blush & powder,liner & mascara and a touch of eyeshadow. Pretty natural looking,just not the REAL natural/death looking me. For that, you need to be in the room at 5:30 a.m. as I stumble to the shower I'm so used to doing the routinue it only takes less than 5 minutes for the whole thing,from face-wash to mascara.

 

[MAC3]

Just lipstick. The rest would just melt off!

we obviously don't go to the same gym...or you would know the person I'm thinking of. hehehe

swear to god...there is this woman at my gym that applies makeup like it's a bad 80's music video...after she works out, it's all over her face/shirt...very very odd.

I've seen her reapply mid-workout.

um - it's an all female gym...who cares?
