How can you subtly say to someone that she is wearing too much makeup all the freaking time during zoom? It’s kind of distracting like we’re not newscasters just here to kick off a damn coupon

I was just in an AA meeting and a woman shared that when she’s having a bad day; she showers, does her hair and puts make up on. She does this only for herself- to feel a sense of normalcy and to feel a little bit better about herself that day. Think about that next time you want to tell someone they are wearing too much makeup and it’s distracting to you. It has nothing to do with you. It’s for her.

Thank you for this! I started wearing more makeup than usual during SIP because having a routine keeps me from going into a depression. People are just trying to make it through the day, and sometimes the most put together are having the hardest time—we don’t know.

As a woman, you can’t win. If you don’t wear makeup you’re perceived as less professional and when you glam it up, people pick at that as well. Leave the woman alone🙄

The same way she’d tell you had bad you look without much makeup.

Put on extremely exaggerated stage makeup and if she mentions something, just say you were feeling frumpy compared to her fierce Zoom lewks.

Psyche. You don’t say a damnt thing because it’s none of your business and wholly inappropriate to comment on someone’s appearance outside of “you look great today” or “you have something in your teeth.”

Why would this irritate you? Some people don’t like to be seen without makeup on because it makes them feel insecure. Some people literally just like to get dolled up every day. It’s none of your goddamn business and tbh it’s super sexist of you to comment on it. Let people live.
