It's all about you
Wearing the clothing, makeup or anything you love, is something you should do for yourself to make you happy- if that does make you happy. Wearing makeup should never be something that any of us do for other people.
Don't get me wrong, everyone loves getting compliments and feeling good about themselves from what others say but wearing makeup can make someone alone happier. Not necessarily because they dislike the way they look without makeup and not at all because they are self-conscious but because makeup and the clothes you wear, can give people that confidence that they need and the only person who can change that confidence is you.
I've heard numerous people state that women may only wear makeup or dress a certain way to attract or impress men (or other women). Makeup and clothing are simply cognitive tricks in which people use to feel more confident and happy. Of course, it can be a wonderful way to express yourself and perhaps correct some imperfections too, but the choice of wearing makeup or not or a particular type of clothing or not can really influence your emotions. It is okay to wear makeup and it is okay not to. Doing what you want to do in this situation will always make you happier.
You don't have to impress anyone but yourself.
