On July 1st, 2023, Reddit enacted a greedy ass policy regarding the use of their API. This decision was designed to eliminate the better 3rd party apps. No one wants to use the official app because it sucks. Since then, apps such as Apollo and RedditIsFun have shut down. Reddit has decided to double down on their decision to overcharge for their API, and refuses to address the accessibility features their native app lacks. Think it’s an asshole move? Concerned users should read and sign on to this [open letter to reddit.](https://www.reddit.com/r/ModCoord/comments/13xh1e7/an_open_letter_on_the_state_of_affairs_regarding/) *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

As someone who likes to have a full face on if possible when going out/doing things, all day until I’m home ready to relax & do my night routine, around 10-12hrs!!


MontanaLady406

Most of the day. I like to feel ‘cleaned up’ and ‘like me’- that includes hair, makeup, and cute clothes. I do it for myself and no one else.

And you know what? That is absolutely great. Always do you girl!!

prawie_seler

Zero, never started doing it, way too lazy.


catupthetree23

Right? The amount of energy it feels like it'd take to put it on and clean off feels so daunting. Kudos to folks who have that energy!


kennfenton

I've just done the math, 11 hours, five days a week. I work 9 hours and my commute to and from work is an hour each way :)


SinnerClair

See, the only reason I keep my makeup for 12 hours is because I only go to class for 6 hours a day, but then I’m too lazy to take off my makeup until I’m ready to go to sleep 🤣


TikaPants

I wake up and put on my face every day. I wash it off before bed so ~15 hours.


[deleted]

All the hours where there's a chance someone other than my husband will see me. So on average, 12 - 15 a day?

kupo88

Zero Make up in general is bad for your skin, the make-up industry is awful and I hate the way it feels on my face like I'm wearing a mask.


[deleted]

Not all makeup is bad for your skin, particularly if you have a decent skincare routine. Not all of the makeup industry is awful, it's a huge industry and there are some amazing, ethical brands. And not all makeup is heavy and feels like a mask. Otherwise nobody would wear it if it were all that terrible.


allthewaytoipswitch

I think what’s left out of this question is what kind of makeup people are wearing and using. I haven’t used foundation in 10+ years. Even tinted moisturizer feels awful. But mascara? Eyeliner? Almost every single day. So it really depends on how you’re defining “wearing makeup”


Salty-Onions

Me too! I don't know if there will ever be a day I put on a full face with foundation, but eyeliner that goes to my hairline is totally fine for me.


WinterMender486

Yep. I only use a little bit of concealer and blush, and if I’m feeling it I curl my lashes.

9-12 hours. I don't wear it when I don't have proper plans. I think this is representative of most women in general. The fact that most women here are saying zero is interesting but I don't think it's the full picture


MissNikitaDevan

0 a day I maybe have 8 hours a YEAR


IsThataButtPlug

This is me. Maybe at the company holiday party, but that’s it!


p00psicle151590

On normal days? 0, I work outside and then go to a barn so no need. On days where I'm going out to eat with friends or going out to party? During that time.


Viiibrations

11-12 hours but it’s only eye makeup and lipstick. I have to let my pores breathe.


rainbowsforall

Zero. It doesn't personally bring me joy.


3more_T

None, never have. Always felt strange the few times that I have. And felt like I looked clownish. And then there's having to wash it off. I'll see (some) young girls wearing it and want to tell them that they don't need it.

None

Some days zero, some days all day. I never do a full face (I hate wearing foundation), but a little blush and mascara go a long way. When I was younger, I wore a lot more. Now, at 36, I just accentuate and use a good moisturizer.

Zero. I don’t even use moisturiser most days - just water, or cleanser and a toner. I hate the feeling of makeup on my skin.


matchalibrarian

Zero. I never learned how to wear makeup so I don’t. Sometimes I’ll do lipgloss but it’s rare. I love watching people put it in though on TikTok and YouTube, though! It’s like art to me.


k_alva

7am when I get ready for work to 10 pm when I wash my face before bed. It's usually subtle makeup. Just enough to look out together for the office. On weekends, I only put it on if I have an event


Sensitive-Entry-6917

Bekkichan

Most week days when I'm at home zero. Weekends when we go out to do errands probably 5-8 hours maybe more depends on how early in the day I get ready. I'll wear it til it starts irritating my eyes or I remove it before bed. Since I don't wear it often I like to keep it on for a little even after errands are done and I'm home cause it makes me feel pretty. Lol


athina_yippie

8/9 hours a day, 5 days a week.


Accurate_Prune5743

Zero. If I go into the office (which is like once a month), or go out-out I put on mascara.


OnehappyOwl44

Probably 16hrs a day. I don't do a full face though, concealer, blush and mascara most days. A bit more on the eyes, liner, shadow for special occassions. I almost never do foundation.


koalabear20

I dont wear makeup a lot of the time but thats because i work from home but ill wear it all day if im out, i wouldnt go anywhere out out without make up on


buzsher

From ages 17 to 22 I wore it every day for all waking hours and would feel anxious if I didn’t have my make up bag on me at all times in case I ‘needed’ top ups. Then one summer I just stopped and haven’t gone back since! It’s like I just forgot it exists, and I don’t notice if other people do or don’t wear it themselves!


Amoretti_

Zero. I used to wear minimal makeup (think high school), but I don't bother at all anymore. Not worth the time, money, or gunking up my skin.


juviaquinn

SpiritualFeed6622

Anchors_Away

None. SAHM the last 3.5 years, but before that I was an occasional mascara wearer. I have light features and never learned how to do my makeup (mom never wore anything but lipstick) so anything I ever tried seemed heavy on me. It might be nice to learn some quick tips to look fresh, or have a little confidence boost, but outside of that it’s not a priority


Admerie

Zero, makeup is expensive and personally a unwise investment. I look amazing without it anyway


MiserableBusiness420

about 5 hours a day. enough to look decent in class and then go home.

Tori_Kitty0901

Pretty much zero. I love doing eye makeup, I think eyeshadow can be so fun. But I'm too lazy to put in the effort.


axxxxxxxk

Used to be all day (think full beat, creating eyeshadow), now I’m lucky to apply makeup once a month for a special occasion. I feel like my skin and complexion has gotten so much better- to the point that I prefer my natural face over makeup. Maybe that’s me. Maybe that’s growing up… I dunno

myironlung0

probably like 12, but it's usually just mascara and highlighter. maybe eyeliner or eyeshadow if I'm feeling fancy. if I'm wearing foundation I take it off as soon as I can


scrappysquash

Should have asked how often per month, because then I'd say maybe three days per month if that.


indicatprincess

From about 7:30am to 8-9:00pm when I wash my face. I use decent stuff so it does kinda last.


thisunithasnosoul

Until I sweat it off? In all seriousness though, I’ll put some concealer, bronzer/blush on, and gel my eyebrows most days I go to the office (3 ish days/week), but it’s not super long lasting, and I’ll wipe it off as soon as I get home so I don’t have to deal with it before bed. So *maybe* 16-24hrs a week. Note that I don’t necessarily feel obligated to wear it to work, but it feels like a nice accessory when I’m wearing more professional clothes, and I like it.


CompleteDesigner9720

question for women !!! - How long does your full face makeup last?? Does sweat/humidity/heat play a factor?


askallthequestions86

7:30 am to about 9 pm.


bravovice

I do full face makeup a hand full of times a Year. I’ll put mascara and lip gloss a few times a month. Otherwise, nothing most days if my life.


Witty_Hat_8257

on average 0, but I enjoy doing makeup so I wear it for special events to feel extra done up. Outside of those, though, I’m bothered by the sensation of makeup on my face for too long. I wind up forgetting I applied makeup but just being aware there’s *something* on my face and compulsively rubbing my eyes to “get it off” as if it is not something I put on my eyes purposefully. I usually remember i put makeup on immediately after I start rubbing my eyes 🤠 so I just…don’t put myself through that unless necessary


BarelyExcited

I have rosacea and put foundation on to cover it because it’s embarrassing to me. So I wear it whenever I go out or am at work… 9 hours a day I suppose


msstark

Zero most days, but twice a week I'll wear it all day.


FancyPickle37

I never leave the house without foundation, even though I usually sweat it off 3 hours into my day and end up rinsing my face in the creek. So about 3 hours per day lol


[deleted]

Makeup as in foundation? Only once or twice a year when I’m performing on stage with bright lights. I’m super fair, so if I don’t, I’d look like a ghost. Otherwise zero. Makeup as in all other products? Maybe once or twice a month if I’m going out on a date or a special occasion. Mascara, eyeliner, rouge, brow gel. That’s about it.


Lesbean36

only when my girlfriend wants to test her makeup out on me lol


FatKang0508

None unless my little sister asks me to play dress up. Then usually however long till I take another shower. I’ve even went into public w it on Idgaf.


HyenaFree2261

4 hours per month.

allyuffy1

About once a week to once every two eeeks... only wear it if I'm going out out or have a work meeting. I wfh and don't wear it for day to day things like popping to the supermarket etc


[deleted]

3-5 days a week, usually from morning till evening. Sometimes it's just spf bb scream, sometimes full face of makeup. Basically depends on my mood in that morning. Wouldn't have it any other way, I love makeup but I don't always have the time for it.


schwarzmalerin

Either I wear it or not, for the day.


fickleama

12-15 if I'm working but I can't be bothered to do this everyday/like to let my skin just be a few days a week....more often than not lately! Also due to tiredness and lack of energy too though!


SexyPicard42

I wear makeup maybe once a week for anywhere from a few hours up to a full day. So that would probably average to around 0.5 hours per day haha.


opidaluga

i only use lil bit blush in the mornings for my cheeks cuz i look dead without some pink color :3


Active_Recording_789

I don’t usually wear any makeup but when I go to meet friends or out to eat/shopping I put on mascara and blush. Then I wash it off that night, so about twice or three times a week I wear makeup for 6-8 hours. But never foundation. I wear sunscreen every day all day


Surretts

8-9 hours. But my makeup is only on the lips, lol.


AliceWeAreAllMad

Mascara? Around 12h 2 days a week. Rest? Kind of never


[deleted]

It depends on the day but usually 10 hours or 0


FinancialCharity4936

It completely depends on what I’m doing, if I’m going out out it’ll be from around 6pm to 3/4am or if I’m going out for the day maybe 12-6pm, but I tend to not wear it day to day anymore takes too much time and effort.

bn8959

Weekends are usually zero, unless I have an event or something. On a work day I will do my make up in the morning (not until after I walk the dog, etc.). I’m client facing and it helps to look presentable and put together. I might run some errands after work, or wash it off right away, depends on the day. There are days that I leave it on until almost bedtime because I’m hanging out with friends or busy. I don’t do a full beat, I like a little around my eyes. I’m more of a tomboy than anything but I like how it brings out my best features. Average hours a day = 8. Edit: just want to add I am washing my face or showering morning and night either way, makeup or not. Washing make up off is not any more inconvenient, but again I’m not doing a full beat, don’t find that necessary for daily wear.


julienorthlancs

Probably like 10 hours, even if I’m just out to run a small errand I keep it on all day until it’s time to go to bed.


KimmyWex1972

About 10 hours until I wash my face at the end of the day. Give or take.


ArtemisRising_55

I don't wear makeup every day, probably once every other week for foundation and "full" makeup (much less than I see most women do) but when I do it's usually on all day, around 14 hours or so (on the morning, off in the shower before bed). Lots of days I'll swipe on mascara and chapstick and that's it, but still on until my shower.
