No Makeup Day

So this morning I wok up a little late and didn't have time to put on makeup as I was rushing out the door. I grabbed my make up bag figuring that I would have time to apply my make up at some point that morning. By about 7am, I decided, I was just not going to put on any makeup. I mean I had made it two and a half hours, why not go the whole day? And besides anyone I might want to impress would hopefully see me with no makeup and still think I am beautiful...right?

I tweeted and facebooked a declaration that today was "Roxanne Wears No Makeup Day." Kind of liberating. I even went as far to take a picture. Ha ha I got a lot of online support, and also a heads up that "No Makeup" is becoming a trend...who knew?

It seems that the French version of Elle magazine is doing an entire issue featuring women with no makeup AND no airbrushing...and here I thought I was being original. Read the article here.
The article challenges US magazines to get on the no make up train.

I second that. Why not?

And for the record, no one looked at me funny. I had meetings, talked to people who I held in regard, and it didn't really phase me. That is until after I was done...each time I left a meeting or stopped talking to someone, I remembered that there was no makeup on my mug. But it really wasn't bad.

Try it; I dare you...
Would you go to work for a day without makeup?
Absolutely not! I won't leave home without it...
Yes! A day without makeup would be refreshing!
Maybe...it would be scary but I might try it...
