I don't feel professional or put together without makeup. I feel frumpy. It doesn't matter to me what you do though.

@regberadaisy: Oh wow! That def didn't come out right lol! Was supposed to be more as it comes off lazy or rushed. If I came to work with no makeup I would feel frumpy.

@KissMeCait: hey, did you know if you click "reply" to my comments it directs your comment at me? Rather than trying to act like you have a statement to every one while quoting me. Just letting you know!

For me I think it depends on the person and what they can and can't get away with. I think you should always look presentable whether than means you need makeup or not. Props to those who don't need it! But I definitely do.

I might add I work with a lady who never wears makeup and never fixes her hair and wears ratty clothes. I feel like she should put more effort into her appearance to portray that she is professional about her job and respects the work place if that makes sense.

I also agree that too much makeup is unprofessional.

ditto what @MamaMoose said. i used to be a banker in a past life and almost never wore makeup. only used concealer when i had a zit that would have been too distracting in a meeting (actually, i know some guys wore concealer too for the same reason). and sometimes i'd darken my eyebrows if i felt pale, but otherwise, zero makeup. i never felt unprofessional, nor do i think anyone else would have thought so.
