Mascara is a definite "do" for me to step out the door and feel, at the very least, "proper." I feel like I look better with mascara on, and (call me old fashioned) I adhere to the adage my mother passed on to me about looking your best for your husband no matter if you're cleaning house or going to the Academey Awards.
I put on eyeliner and shadow to play things up a bit, but usually if I go that far I add in the foundation, powder, and blush. Sometimes I totally sex it up for Martel's sake, when we go out, just to have a little bit of fun
