I like make up, so shoot me...
Seriously, if I am going to ride or do some other activity in the morning, or it's a weekend, I wash my face, put on moisturizer with sunscreen, under eye concealer (you don't want to see me without it), and go. Oh and I do wear lip gloss or lipstick with sunscreen. Then I put on more regular sunscreen.
If I am riding after work and I already have make up on (blush, eye makeup) I don't take it off, just put sunscreen on over it.
I notice most younger women wear chapstick type stuff the way I wear lipstick. I feel naked without it and I like the smooth feeling it gives my lips.
I am not a girly-girl either and don't mind getting dirty, camping, and rolling in mud after a mountain bike fall (which happens a lot since I suck at mountain biking). I can pee in the woods with the best of them. But, I like wearing make up when I'm not exercising, buying nice clothes, and getting pedicures.
This doesn't make me a bad person. I figure that i am 54 years old and I don't have to justify wearing make up to anyone.
