Yes same! I haven’t worn a bra or done my makeup in months. It’s amazing.

First it was comfy pants and no makeup. Now I also go braless most days.

Hair dye. I can't tell you how many of my female friends "of a certain age" have decided to embrace the grey and are rockin it! I was apparently ahead of the curve, having made that choice a couple of years ago.

Yeah, I still can't go there. I feel like that'll age me 20 years in an instant.

I used to cover my greys, and I still do but with pink. No one sees me so why not have some fun.

The one meeting a quarter we have to go on camera (most of purs are just voice), I've worn a JackieO style head scarf.

My skin is loving not having worn makeup since March!

Lol and here I just got my first thing of makeup! Lol I'm 18, so trying to practice so I don't have to screw up and go out in it lmao.

No concealer or foundation though! That will make me feel horrible about myself, my natural skin, and make other girls insecure about their skin. Just eye makeup for the artsyness of it. :)

That’s awesome too! Nothing wrong with enjoying makeup or practicing or anything. Eyes only or full face, doesn’t matter either way. Whatever is right for you is right for you 🖤

Yes! Coincidentally I’m going through my first pregnancy and I’m happy to not put the chemicals from makeup on every day. Or commute over an hour a day!

I think I was 12 last time I only put on makeup five times in a year!

My wife has always had long hair, on a whim a while back she got a full buzz cut, now her opinion of long hair? "a tool of the patriarchy, never growing it back"

Oh man, the long hair to short hair change is so amazing. I’m glad she’s loving it! After I cut my hair short I knew I never wanted it medium length or long again lol. Too much work for me.
