Why do You wear make up?

I get this question a lot, more than I thought I would to be honest.

Personally, I used to hate the idea of makeup, I never wore it unless I was going out somewhere or if I was cosplaying. Now I find myself in a world of makeup, I have so much makeup it takes up five bags and a treasure box full!
I wear a lot of makeup, well not even a lot I've seen some girls that draw on every feature that's on their face, I tend to just highlight my natural features or draw attention to something I like about myself.

I love my eyes, (the only thing I really like about myself) I tend to do a dramatic eye look to grab the attention or to feel better about myself! Sometimes I wear makeup because I'm doing a cosplay or I simply want to pamper myself. ??
Some girls/boys wear makeup because they don't like their natural face and want to be someone else, some people don't wear makeup altogether and avoid it. I've grown up with two boys and a single mum so I've never really known anything about makeup until recent years, I'm a 20(21) year old that loves to play around with makeup, I've done my ''natural'' makeup and I've even done facepaint.

The reason I tend to do my makeup is that growing up I was always called ugly amongst other names I'm not going to bring up. I feel like people should be able to express themselves in many different ways, some do it with art, music, drama, and makeup. Others write or do other things they love to express themselves.

So when I'm asked the question, ''Why do you wear makeup?'' I just shrug my shoulders and say, ''I don't know '' There isn't a right or wrong answer to that question, there is also no reason why people tell women not to wear makeup because it ''Confuses them'' We shouldn't be held accountable for men/women thinking we have gold eyelids XD

I also don't do my makeup to impress anyone but myself, I'm not going to paint my eyelids Blue because some guy likes that color, I'm not going to flick my wings out because some dude likes it that way. My eyelids will be gold because I'm practically a fairy, my lips will be dark purple because I like Tiffany from the child's play movies.

XD Hope you enjoyed this even if it didn't make sense
