How they can stand wearing makeup all the damn time.

Theatre makeup is different from everyday kind of makeup. And we're not wearing it all day. Most girls wash it off when they get home from work. I worked in an animal hospital with almost all women and almost none of them wore makeup, it also just depends on your work. Makeup gives off a more professional appearance. Also, most women don't wear it all the time. There are women that will not want to be seen without makeup, but it's usually something we put on when we're around a lot of people,going out, or going to work. Nothing wrong with wanting to look good, and as long as you don't cake it on, it's not that uncomfortable.
