Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my boyfriend saw me without make-up for the first time we've been dating for two years. He freaked because he didn't know who I was. FML
Today, I decided not to wear any makeup. I got told 13 times at work that I looked ill. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me I can stop using makeup, because it's "not working." FML
Today, I went into work for the first time without make-up. My boss thought I looked so tired and ill that he sent me home. FML
Today, my boyfriend asked me if I wear makeup much. Expecting him to say something about my natural beauty, I replied with an honest, "No." His smiled softly, gently squeezed my shoulder, and said, "Maybe you should." FML
Today, all of my friends and teachers asked me what was wrong because I looked sad and tired. One kid even said that I looked like "an abused housewife the day after." I was fine. It was the first time I went to school without wearing any makeup. FML
Today, I went to school without makeup. No one recognized me. FML
Today, I didn't put any makeup on my acne-ridden and newly sun-burnt face. Today was also the first time I've ever run into my crush outside of work, all while trying to parallel park in a car that hasn't been washed in 6 months. I hit the car behind me. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me I'm beautiful. Before I could thank him, he continued, "Too bad it takes a shit-load of makeup." FML
Today, while hanging out with my boyfriend, I started getting ready for bed. As I grabbed my face wipes, he said, “Wait, don't take off your makeup because then you'll be ugly.“ FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

That's the thing with wearing make up all the time: no one appreciates your true beauty since they're all used to the fake you :( fyl OP

Ydi for wearing so much makeup. If you wore a small amount, it would simply make you prettier. But if you wear tons, it completely changes the way you look, making your natural.face seem ugly.

That's the problem with girls wearing makeup as soon as they are in junior high. Everyone is used to that, then it's just when your all natural it looks unnatural cause no one is used to it. Don't blame your boyfriend he was caring about you. What if tomorrow he puts makeup on? Would you not care if he went and made a FML about his girlfriend commenting on it?

My ex loved me without makeup. He's the one that told me to stop wearing it. I haven't wore makeup since then, 1 month ago.

How much make up do you wear? I mean make up really just enhances some facial features and maybe adds colour to your lips.. If you pack on a pile then maybe that's why he thinks you look different?

I say bravo. There is no need to wear make all the time for u gals out there.I'm a man that loves little or no make up at all. Makeup is jus a bit fake for me. But if he dont like ur true beauty then hes no good. Jus sayin.

The concept of "Everyone being beautiful" is dumb. If everyone was the same, we would not be able to tell each other apart. The fact is, not everyone is beautiful. You can't have real beauty without real ugly.

I think the idea is supposed to be not that everyone is the same, but that everyone is beautiful in their own way. But yeah, I totally agree otherwise. It only makes self-confident people narcissistic and most other people either feel like they're being pitied or lied to. Besides, it puts MORE emphasis on appearance, which is counterproductive. I especially hate it when people tell children that "everyone is special." Okay, if everyone is special, where did all the ordinary adults come from? smh

LoL. Heard someone say one time, "Your special, just like everyone else." If everyone is special then no one is.

Sounds like you found an inconsiderate loser. Ditch the face paint and find a better guy.
