The advice I gave this woman is something I think we can all benefit from being reminded of—myself included!
Consider being makeup free for one entire week.
Wash your face, moisturize, and don’t wear a stitch of makeup. If it feels strange or even uncomfortable at first to go without makeup, then that week-long time limit may help. And of course, you can start with a half day or one day to start working up to a week.
Make it a fun adventure or a challenge. You can also do it with a friend or group of friends. You do not need to make a commitment to never wearing makeup again---it’s just a week-long experiment to gather information.
If you have an occasion or event to attend that week use your clothing, jewelry, and accessories to add the bling to the festivity. By the end of the week, you will have discovered a number of things, one being that no one may even notice!
