I've never felt comfortable or "real" wearing make up. I'm a woman, but I always felt like I was in drag when I would wear makeup and a dress. It didn't feel right at all.

I feel really comfortable dressing like I'm going camping. But now that I've started feeling a little better about myself, some days (still pretty rarely) I'll wear some makeup to help the dark circles under my eyes look lighter and I'll put on some lipstick that looks almost the same color as my lips. I think the color is called "nude". I feel better when I do those two things, but some days it feels like it takes too much energy.

I have glaucoma and use eye drops that make the skin around my eyes look darker. But they also make it look a little like I'm wearing eye liner and they make my lashes really long and luxurious. So they have disadvantages, but also disadvantages. (Mostly, I'm hoping the drops will keep me from going blind any time too soon, but keeping up with always having to use so many different kinds and so many times a day is a real challenge for me. I guess that's another post. Sorry)
