7 Solid Reasons to Have Occasional Makeup Free Days ...

Alicia

There are some solid reasons to have makeup free days. They’re something that everyone can benefit from on occasion. Whether you wear every available product or you’re more of a just powder and mascara girl, makeup free days are something every girl needs. Let’s talk about 7 benefits of giving your makeup some days off.

Do you prefer a natural makeup look or something bold?

1. Your Skin Appreciates the Break

First and foremost, it’s good for your skin to have occasional makeup free days. As lovely and fun as makeup is, it isn’t completely healthy for your skin. It can actually clog your pores and lead to breakouts. It’s true that there’s a good selection of makeup to choose from that can work well with your skin. But giving your skin the day off every now and then is a good idea.

2. It’s a Good Time for Beauty Treatments

Giving yourself a makeup free day makes a great time for a facial beauty treatment. You can give yourself a microdermabrasion treatment, wear a mask or treat your skin to the cleansing benefits of a steam bath. It’s all about what you feel your skin needs most. Facial treatments leave your skin looking and feeling beautiful. You can achieve a glow with no makeup required.

3. It’s a Time-saver

Some days are very busy and there’s just little time for makeup. It’s okay to go without makeup at those times. At the very least, you should establish a five minute face. This simply means you have a look you can pull together with makeup in less than five minutes when your time is short. You’ll love that you came up with the day is crazy.

4. It’s Relaxing

It’s actually relaxing to have a break from the ritual of makeup. It makes you feel as if your day is a little different. Enjoy the slow pace every once in a while. Maybe it’s a day off work or a day you’re just running errands. You may find that those occasional makeup free days are your favorite days of all.

5. It’s Attention Getting

Want to catch your crush’s eye? Go without makeup for a day. One of the first things I did when I started dating my husband was let him see me without makeup. While I love makeup and wear it almost daily, I was all about keeping it real. That’s something guys will respect you for, ladies. A guy that’s interested in you will adore you with or without makeup.

6. It Breaks Your Dependence on Makeup

If you feel like you’re dependent on makeup then it’s time for some occasional days off. It’s important not to be so dependent on your makeup that you can’t run out for a quick errand without it. Don’t let makeup imprison you. Let it be something you wear to celebrate your femininity but don’t be tied to it. Breaking that dependence is powerful.

7. It Gives You an Appreciation for Your Real Beauty

Having occasional makeup free days gives you an appreciation for your real beauty. Learn to love the real you. I’m talking about the you that’s under the layers of mascara and beautiful lipsticks. It’s great to enjoy yourself and all the beautiful looks you can create with makeup but never forget your authentic beauty. Embrace the freckles or soft lashes you were born with.

These are 7 solid reasons to enjoy makeup free days. What do you love most about makeup free days? I’d love to hear your thoughts.

Tomorrow I will go to work without makeup. It takes me a bloody half hour to decorate my face! 😂😂😂

Happygirl she never said it prevented skin cancer

I was going to research this topic today: I thought does it make a difference to not wear makeup on occasions or not at all? Thanks for posting this😘!

I'm gonna have to put on my big girl panties and try this out!

I hardly wear makeup unless we are going out/dinner. Even then it's hardly any.

My everyday makeup consists of baby powder to control oily skin and/or lipgloss or lipstick.

You should wear some kind of sun care cream even if you decide not to wear any make- up. Nobody wants skin cancer on their face ! Having it on my arm was frightening enough so now I am really careful about my face too.

I can spend a half hour on my makeup with so many products, but i can also do a 5 min face, and i have my concealer and powder face and i have my makeup free face lol i switch them all up all the time

Wow this awesome...I am so going to try this!

I don't wear make-up at all and I feel beautiful by exercising and eating healthy. By not wearing make-up, you can save a lot of money, or spend it on other way cooler things. In my case: books, DVDs and food! Loving Earth Chocolate mmmmm 😊
