I generally don't wear makeup, but I still wake up looking like a cross between Boozy the Clown and a dead Dutch hooker. :darn:
How to remedy this if you are going to start living with your s.o.? D: The thought has me at once not caring since he'll be trapped by then anyway and yet vain enough to consider being pissed off that I'll have to get out of bed earliest to avoid him seeing me in hag mode.
Discuss. :D

99.9% no, but there is that rare drunken pass out

i go to sleep in makeup when pissed or if i'm feeling extremely lazy. though i haven't worn any for the last few days.
other exceptions are staying out all night and not having makeup removal facilities (damned if i'm using normal soap).

I hardly wear makeup in the first place, so yeah I guess I do. I don't bother to wash my face at night much.

Only when I'm so tired I can't be bothered. But I don't want my face being worse than it is so I'm usually pretty good about washing it/applying face medicine

I guess a more appropriate poll question would have been
Hag mode: pretend it doesn't exist or rock it with confidence?
Wearing makeup to bed is the worst thing you can do for your skin. All-around bad bad bad. That said, every now and then, like everyone else, I've just drank too goddamn much or am not at home with the proper washing materials :(

i don't wear concealer or anything like that so yeah i do. i don't give a crap what my bf thinks of how i look anyways when i'm going to bed.. he can deal with it. he sees me in the morning and smells my bad breath, i think he can handle seeing me without makeup.
if you're that scared of your so seeing you nude faced, you shouldn't move in with him yet!

i've improved the "staying out for the night with no proper cleansing" problem with a little emergency bag in my car. contact case and solution, eye make up remover, cleanser... cleansing wipes even, for when a proper wash is too annoying, toothbrush, toothpaste, moisturizer, deodorant for the next morning. oh, and pajamas.

Damn puffin! you're thorough! And that could be the perfect excuse for me to get another handbag---er, I mean, overnight bag.
I don't wear makeup much at all during waking hours, so it's usually not an issue for me. When I woke up today, I looked in the mirror and scared myself. :O Bare-faced, bedheaded just full on EEK scary. The sometimes I wake up and I look almost normal (except for sheet prints :darn:).
I just wonder what the hubby will think when he realizes I wake up looking like a scarecrow more often than I've ever been willing to admit.
But I'm not about to wear makeup to bed like those chicks on Maury or whatever who actually *apply* makeup on their way to bed! D:

Look as shitty as hell for a few days, if he leaves, you are better off.
I always take my make up off.

I do the more-than-i'd-like-to-admit drunk passing out with makeup on, and I rarely wear makeup if I'm not drinking, so yeah...
But I usually only wear eye makeup, and I only wear tinted moisturizer and it ususally wears off by the end of the night anway

Rock it with confidence! I suppose it depends how much you wear, but usually I seem to look more alluring with bedhair and mascara smudges than I did the night before. Did you know that Linda Evangelista used to put her eyeliner on at bedtime so she could have that sultry smudged thing the next day? not that that works for me, but eh. And I really don't understand how you've got to the cohabiting stage without letting your facade drop, you must be very disciplined!

I barely wear makeup in the daytime, but every now and then I'll pass out with it on. I never wear base or concealer either, if I have a zit that needs covered up, the concealer just seems to make it worse, so I let it all hang out. There is no facade at home... I'll walk around in sweats with uncombed hair and leg stubble, I don't care :D

No, see, I don't have a facade. I don't usually wear any makeup at all. I'm talking about when you first wake up and you look all scary (that's hag mode). Because I woke up the other day, went to the bathroom, caught my reflection and SCARED myself. No makeup, just a scary sleepy-puffed face and some haystack hair. D:
I was wondering if, when you live with your s.o., you don't care if THEY see you looking like that...because I don't even want to see myself looking like that. :\

I see...but don't you stay over with each other? And you must have seen him looking like shit on occasion, non?
Some of us never look like shit! I'm a painfully pretty person, like!

I think I have a man-cold coming on. But yes, even, nay ESPECIALLY when I have flu!

NOBODY looks their best with a grey face and tiny eyes, come on. Not unless they're a donkey or something.
It gets me the sympathy vote!

omg hag mode is the worst... it's why im afraid of ever waking up next to someone. my roommates have always made fun of my morning hag mode. it's gross. i dont know how to avoid it though! i tend to sleep with my hair tied back to avoid hag hair in the morning, that keeps it a bit under control. but thats all the advice i have.
but yeah if youre marrying him, he must have seen you many many bad mornings by now, no? and if he cant take it, dont marry it.

i don't know why, but i've never cared about anyone seeing me that way, esp. the man-boy. And it's not because i don't care about what people think of how i look, because that isn't it i don't think. Who knows, maybe i am delirious and always think i look delightful.
Being comfortable around peeps is nice, but sometimes there is a point of being too comfortable sometimes. What i mean by that is that i'm still in the honeymoon period in a way, yet i always look gross whenever i'm around my boyfriend because i am so comfy, so he rarely ever sees me looking nice! I can't wait till i'm 45, married, and can't leave my bed b/c i'm 400lbs and have let myself go.

Something we should all aspire to. :yes:
I guess I embarass easily. :\

Ugh the summer before last I got so so sick, and I looked absolutely horrifying, but Craig didn't care, or said he didn't. That's love, aww.

I'm sure Matt would still look at me and say he didn't care with a straight face, but he'd be thinking "OMG I'VE MARRIED A TROLL HELP!" (I'm a lil insecure)
And I know he'd be lying if he said I didn't look trolly, because I'd tell him he didn't look scary when he did. (I'm also a lil bit o' a liar :-*)
Nevermind, I've lost interest since I didn't think out my thought fully before posting the thread. Sorry y'all. Let's go read about earwax in the q-tip one! :D
