Does my skin look better because I've stopped wearing foundation?

i stopped wearin it a couple of months ago and my skin lost alot of its oilyness and redness and looks so much healthier. is is cause of the foundation or cause my skin matured?

Answer #1

Yes it is. The foundation would clog your pores and or cause people to break out. And it will make you look old and mess up your skin so that way you will HAVE to wear it for the rest of your life, like fake lashes.

Answer #2

:o im never wearing that stuff again!

Answer #3

That would depend on what kind of foundation you use. I use mineral, tac free,(normally) powder foundation, I think it improves my skin, it soaks up the oil on my face, which means I get less break outs and its very light so it doesn’t clog my pores. I use to use a liquid foundation and I had A LOT more breakouts then, its heavy and clogs your pores. Not long after I switched, I had much clearer skin. Its all about finding what works for you and your skin type.

Answer #4

I know people who wear fake eyelashes just about everyday and if you do it right, you wont have a problem (buy decent glue and run warm water over the lash before you try to remove it). Same with make up, if you buy products that are more natural and you take care of your skin correctly and washing it off before you do to bed so your skin can breath easy for a while, then you will be fine. If you cake on the liquid foundation and heavy eyeshadow, and go to sleep with all that on your face, then yeah, your gonna look 50 when your 30. Its like loading your hair up with products and using heat on it everyday and then complaining that its damaged and doesn’t grow very fast.

Answer #5

ummm how does wearing foundation mess up your skin and mean you have to wear it for the rest of your life? I have worn foundation pretty much everyday for the last ten years and it has done nothing bad to my skin. I use it to even out my skin tone, but without it, my skin is as healthy as it has ever been. Foundation doesnt get into your skin, it sits on the outside, so no, it does not age your skin. Your skin ages when you lose collagen etc, which foundation doesnt cause

Answer #6

Foundation usually protects your skin from the elements. I wonder if you were using make up that you were allergic or sensitive to? I’ve always had trouble with oil-based foundations and can only wear water-based products. If it’s a good product it shouldn’t do any damage at all. . However, if your skin looks really good right now, don’t bother using it until you have to :)

Answer #7

I dont ever wear it, and people are forever coming up to me and asking why i have such perfect skin, its cuz i dont wear foundation have you ever noticed how people like camron diaz always have bad skin when they dont wear make up, its cuz shes forever plastered in the stuff, and never gives her skin time to breathe :L trust me you dont need it anyways :) and plus my mum has never worn it a day in her life shes nearly 50 and i dont think she has one wrinkle :D

Answer #8
