who is it?

Patsy from Absolutely Fabulous....the hair, the makeup....no?Never mind. *slinks away*

Lol, its ok dear, someone said it to me before

I LOVE Ab Fab!! ! The ultimate "lipstick aspie" indulgence!! ! OMG!! ! I hate to admit it but in some ways I totally identify with Eddie - being a creative mom in the publishing biz. My daughter's only five - God forbid she ends up being my Saffron!

I'm not as "experimental" as Eddie is - but I'm just as scattered, self-centered (in an aspie way), and neurotic. (And I love fashion!)

I identify with 100% of what the OP said.

not much of a lipstick and lipgloss person here- I use a lot of Carmex though, because it's taste is disgusting and I'm trying to quit my lip chewing habit/stim.

I love eyeliner, and I wish I could apply it as well as GloomyPluto (assuming that it was you who did the make-up on your pic), I'm pretty hopeless at making the lines straight and symmetrical

Another "Ab Fab" fan here!

I don´t exactly see myself in any of the characters, but I think it´s about the only "female humor" that I actually find humorous.

I can't tick any of those options.

I'm not one of those high maintenance women who can't leave home without 'putting their face on'; I'm not so insecure that I'm scared to let people see what I look like without makeup on.

But then again I have no objection to wearing makeup. And I sometimes do. I'll usually wear some makeup if I'm going out to a bar or club or to a party. And sometimes I'll wear a bit of makeup to work, sometimes just a bit of lipstick, sometimes with some eyeshadow and eyeliner and mascara, although the latter would be highly unusual for me to wear to work, as I'm not a morning person, I'd rather spend an extra 10-15 minutes in bed in the morning.

So, sometimes I do, sometimes I don't, I don't have any firm preference either way, depends on what's on my agenda, what time I wake up and so on.

I hardly ever wear it. You hair blows in the wind and sticks to it, that pushes me into sensory overload. I like gloss, I only wear gloss when my hair is tied back. I look weird with lipstick on so I don't use that either.

I can't be seen without concealer, but at the same time, I don't do the whole eyeshadow/eyeliner/blush/paint me up like the freaking Joker routine either.

Maybe it is. I like video games, film noir, and Beavis & Butthead. I could care less if guys think I'm attractive. I laugh until I fall off chairs, I can be really clumsy, a grade-A dork sometimes... I don't go out of my way to be all poised. But it's the worst when I make honest conversation with guys and they think that I like them. I don't understand why girls can't just be seen as people sometimes.

I think of myself as the au naturel type because I don't like when people look at me or notice things about my appearance. I wear make-up but you wouldn't be able to tell. But I am definitely girlier than some of my friends.

I like fashion and make-up too, but nothing over the top. I don't wear heels either.

I hate makeup and lipstick so I never wear them. It's just hiding behind the real you.

some girls need to wear it, cause they are very unnatractive without.

They do not. Don't be silly. Unless you feel this way about yourself.

Mascara and brown eyeshadow is all I usually put on when I leave the house. Sometimes when I get dressed up I'll add eyeliner and lipstick to the deal. When I'm just hanging out at home though I don't wear anything.

Lipstick I abhor. I wear it when I feel I "should" but I seriously can't stand it. The taste and smell is so gross. I also hate foundation. I'll wear it if I have to, but it makes me feel like I painted my face over with a huge brush and it makes my skin feel tight. And I hate that sometimes it makes your pores stand out more in the wrong light.

I did however just get my hair done yesterday... How terribly girly of me! I got it cut and highlighted. (I was going for a cut and the salon lady talked me into the rest...) It actually looks good. Now if I can maintain the same look it might be worth it. I usually lose interest though...

Uh, they do. I think most girls can look nicer without it. But when they start messing with their eye brows and stuff, they need the make up.
