I am a 21-year-old woman, and I don’t know how to do makeup(i dont mean to be pick me girl)—maybe I can only use powder or cushion and lipstick, but I mean real makeup, the kind that truly looks like makeup.
I can’t dress up in a way that’s too feminine. Even though I really want to.
Actually, there are some factors behind all of this, but never mind.
I feel like I don’t deserve to feel beautiful or to do things like that. Even just wearing lipstick, sometimes I feel like it’s too much… If I already put on lipstick, I usually end up wiping it off, even though it’s not even that much. My friend sometimes says:
“Why do you look so pale?” And I reply, “No, I already put on lipstick.”
Sometimes i wanna be like them.. But inside me telling me 'I dont deserve it, everybody will judge you
'

I think you do you. If you want to learn the basics of makeup application, go for it. If you feel good dressing feminine, do so It is not for others to judge you. And do you want those types of people controlling what you do? I don't mean anyone is forcing you not to do those things, but the fear of people's judgment is, do you want that to control your life? Some people are enthusiastic naturalists and make it sound bad if you like to wear makeup, but it's not their face, is it? I hate when people call people fake for something as simple as dressing femininely and wearing makeup and jewelry. I have seen men vilify ordinary women as fake for wearing makeup, then go on to drool over actresses or models who are clearly wearing makeup. You do what makes you feel good about yourself, because honestly, no matter what you do, someone is going to judge it as wrong.
