Not your face, not your concern

[Jayden]

I used to get extremely defensive when people used to ask me "Why do you wear so much eye makeup?" "Don't you get that less is more?" "Why can't you be natural?"

Now I just don't answer questions about my makeup anymore. I realize that by making smokey eyes, people are going to stare. And some people will wonder why. No, I am not insecure and I do not HAVE to wear it. Hell, when I go to work I don't wear it. But people are going to assume these things and people are going to ask questions.

I had the same thing today, except I have scarring on my face- which is why I wear make-up.
I almost got into tears because a man would not stop asking me about it today.
