how long does your makeup application last

[christine55]

When I apply make up everything is fine for a few hours. I just powder my nose and upper lip a little to get it looking good again. After about 6 hours it seems that I need to wash it off and reapply to get it looking decent. The problem is not beard stubble because if i just wash and reapply it looks great again. How long does your makeup last? Suggestions? Any GG's?
Hugs, Christine

Nope for me the make up lasts but the stupid hair grows out too much so after six hours it's time to wash shave and reapply again.

As I shave only every other day, i dont worry too much about my beard, especially if I shave soon before making up. Although my beard isnt all that "light" or sparse, I am lucky that my skin isnt very translucent, so I have no 5 o'clock shadow problems.

If i dont eat, my makeup will last nearly all day---or all night (sleeping -- wanting to wake as a girl)

My eyeliner tends to smudge and dissapear first, and some mascara.---But even cheap lipstick and foundation and shadow seem to hold up well on me.

Six hours sounds like a good run, some would say that you are lucky you can wear it that long.

Never worn for more than an evening, so 6 hours is right on target. Am planning a trip to Chicago in November to do 2 days totally enfemme, will find out more.

Mine lasts about (aproximatly) ball park figure.... I'd say, around, almost.... long enough.

I guess it depends what one (or another one) is doing with ones face AFTER the makeup was applied :eek:

Long enough that I awoke and went to see my grandmother this morning. Who stared at me real weird. When I got home I realised I still had lipstick on and light eye shadow. I forget because I do not put it on everyday. Thank god I did not go to town first.

I agree with the six hours. Mine really starts to show wear and tear by that stage and needs to be redone. Thats one reason I delay putting on my makeup till as late as possible before going out clubbing.

Even so...by 1am or 2am I am starting to look frayed and the party is still rolling on at the Atl nite clubs. :eek:
