If you sat down and explained to him that you frequently get sad and by wearing make-up makes you feel better then he probably will respect your decision. You have a right IMO to be your own identity and not allow others to tell you what to wear or what not to wear.

I think so often that when we have young children, are younger ourselves and are married, we spend most our time "living for everyone else and being who they want us to be". As time goes on and we mature we find that we have lost some of our own identity. I am by no means saying this is the situation you are living with.

You are your own person - and if you as a person desires to wear make-up then go for it.

exactly! I agree 100%

Do whatever makes YOU happy girl.
