Why?

  • I want to know if I can learn to love myself without my make up.
  • The ingredients in make up are bad for your skin, bad for the environment, and bad for the animals they were probably tested on. Plus, some of them are pretty yukky. The packaging isn’t much better, either.
  • Men don’t have to wear it. Why should we?
  • I don’t think women should have to live up to the airbrushed, photoshopped, unrealistic ideals of beauty portrayed in the media.
  • I want my daughter to grow up feeling beautiful in her own skin.
  • Cosmetics don’t have to undergo testing for efficacy in the same way that medicines do. Cosmetics companies use persuasive, misleading pseudo-science to dupe customers into buying their snake oil.
  • I want to inspire other women to join me! (You can join me in going make up free here.)
