Growing up, I never really wore make-up consistently. My sister was the one to start wearing it first and my then friends started wearing make-up in middle school/high school. I noticed that they were and I kind of thought that I should too, so I tried wearing some. I asked my sister to show and teach me how to put on eyeliner. At first, I couldn't even do it myself. I didn't really like it because I couldn't do it myself and it always smudged and would make me look like a raccoon. I used pencil liner then. After I realized that it didn't work, I switched to liquid liner. I liked it at first but then it, too, began to run. I noticed in mirrors that I looked not attractive at all by the end of the day when my make-up was smeared. At one point, I just gave up altogether and stopped wearing any. My sister always said to me that I don't need to wear any.
Now, while at college, I've been using it more often. At this point, I had switched to gel instead of the pencil. I like it a lot more than pencil or liquid liner. It doesn't smudge as much or at all. I like wearing it and I'll admit that it makes me feel good. I think I look better and prettier with it on. I use to try to wear it every day and at the beginning of the year, I wore it every day. Now that we're in to the second semester, I got lazy. I wake up too late and I don't have time to put it on. Some days, during my break between classes, I'd find a mirror and put it on. Nowadays, I don't wear eyeliner on a daily basis. I wear it on the weekends when I go out with my friends or with my boyfriend. I used to feel like I had to wear it because it made me look prettier and everyone else did. However, I've realized that I don't need to wear it just because every one else does. I don't need it to look prettier either because my boyfriend likes me for me; it doesn't matter if I wear make-up or not. I'm confident in myself that I look pretty naturally, without the use of make-up.
