Makeup-less I'm going to camp in the summer for the first time in my life. (I'm 14) I've known my friends for 3 years and they've never known me without makeout. I don't use alot but a little bit of eyeliner makes a hugeee difference! Anyways, I don't know what I should do because I don't want my friends to see me makeup-less...I mean, with makeup, I look "decent" but without, you won't even recognize me on the street. I look horrible! Please don't say..your friends should love you for you..I'm very self concious about myself and I really want to know what to do. Thanks in advance-I rate!

Bring your makeup to camp, have fun, if it comes off, it comes off, and you can re-apply it. It's no big deal, makeup is makeup. I never go anywhere without it, but someday, someones gonna see you without it, so you might want to get used to it. ]
Well, you could take the plunge and pray your friends aren't shallow, or sleep in makeup and put it on after you do anything that would take it off, or anger your friends so they won't even look at you during camp, then blame it on PMS and make up with them after camp...the bad possibilities are endless.
Remember that make up covers what your genes and what *gasp* god gave you. Even though make up is fun and looks good, you should still let your natural beauty shine through from time to time. ]
Ok, makeup is makeup! I admit I look better with makeup on, but I'm not to bad without it, which I'm sure you are too, but you are self consious. And what girl isn't.But honestly if they're focusing on whether u have makeup on or off they are not very good friends. Just don't even act like u don't have any on. It feels better without it on too! Hope I helped!

just take your make up with you. thats what i do. and maybe dont put on as much as you usually would. just enough to get you through the day. and theyre your friends. so if they see you without make up they shouldnt care that much. looks arent everything. ;)

Wear a little makeup,but like not a lot, so your friends could see how you look. Keep toning it down, till eventually you won't have to wear makeup and no one will even notice.
Hope I helped!

I nobody can bring makeup you will all be in the same boat. Don't worry about it, since there isn't much you'll be able to do about it anyway. :) ]

Gradually bring it down a little. Like everyday when you hang out with your friends, refrain from applying one step of makeup (like foundation). The next day refrain from another step, and vice versa. As long as you don't wear an inch of makeup, I don't think your friends will really notice. ]
This is your decision. Not your friends, your boyfriend, your neighbor, just yours. I think the reason you think that you look horrible without make-up is the fact that you always wear it, and if you wear something all of the time around people, that object on you melts in your personality. So of course if you decide not to wear make-up, you're going to get questions and comments about it, but don't take it seriously, they are going to say something about it because they aren't use to your face with no make-up. But, in my opinion, I think you shouldn't wear make-up a lot, maybe every other week or something, because maybe after looking at yourself with no make-up for a while and you are used to being seen with no make-up, then I think you'll start liking yourself that way. Your friends probably do love you for who you are, but that dosn't mean they aren't going to comment, if they ask, just tell them you want to experiment with yourself, and you want to see what different things you can try to help you adjust more to yourself. I mean, I'm pretty sure that your friends have done something that you laughed at or commented at, besides, this is you, your decision, you dress/bathe/make-up/decide anything you do with yourself, if you let somone else do it, you're letting them pick out a wardrobe for two, you don't want that.

Now is a great time to let go a learn to love yourself, as is. This isn't about your friends at all, this is about YOU. The thing is, we think we look drastically different with or without makeup, but we don't. I rarely even notice when my friends are wearing makeup unless it's some weird bright color. It doesn't change you as much as you think it does. With that said, have you ever just... skipped the makeup for a day? I usually wear makeup and I highly reccomend it. It's exhilarating. It's just girlfriends, anyway, right? Who is there to impress?
If you must, take a small stick of eyeliner and apply a little. It's pretty quick and easy if that's all you're doing. Eyeliner is the one makeup item that does actually make a noticable difference, so I can see where you're coming from on that. ]
Well, I think you should look pass these insecureties and possibly find something else for people to focus on, such as an intersting hair style. Also, if you're that insecure about your looks, just think, you're going to see your friends without make to! :-) One last thing, your cAmping trip is supposed to be a bonding experience, your friends will understand if you look a little "under-decent"
Hope I could help! ]
I think that you should just use a little bit of makeup...like don't use tons and tons....or better yet...just be yourself...i don't think that they will care too much. hope i helped...
