Q: The problem is I'm 21, I'm no little girl, but then again, I've heard make- up takes your natural color away. Yesterday I went to macy's for a free make up session, but the lady there said that I don't need much b/c I have a natural tone/color, and so she only put light colors on. MY QUESTION.. Does make up ruin your natural skin? like leaves marks, or makes your open pores look bigger? Sorry for my spelling :)
A: It does not! This is a myth :) Make up does no harm whatsoever to your skin as long as you remember to wash it off before bed and you take care of your face besides that. It's possible you may have an allergic reaction but many products at your department store should be allergy tested, like Clinique. Since you probably don't even need that much make up, you'd probably just wear a light eyeshadow and some mascara, and concealer. You're very lucky to have that natural tone :) Once again, some make up MAY clog your pores causing break outs. When you get home, remove all the make up to prevent that :) Good luck.
