@Olivia S.
I understand your opinion but I have to disagree with you and also say you're being a bit rude. You're a wonderful person but your comment came off very rude.

Yes, someone isn't having another day. It's terrible, it's horrible, it's awful. But who knows? This could be Georgia's coping method! For me, I found a way to not be so sad when my best friend died through my makeup and clothing. I would have probably posted a similar post to this is I had been on this site at that time. You don't know the situation so I do not think it's appropriate for you to judge her so harshly.

I'm sorry for your loss; whoever that may have been. For makeup just stay very simple. In fact, I wouldn't even bother with eyeshadow. Just a basic face and some waterproof mascara. If you really want to do eye makeup I recommend a very natural eye with no liner. Don't use the sparkly colors. I'd use probably the white on my lid, brow bone, and inner corner. I'd then blend the 4th shadow on the top row from the left (that sort of light greyish brown) into the crease. Finish it off with a waterproof mascara

I wouldn't go with any eyeshadow, just some mascara or if you prefer something a little more maybe some natural false lashes of some sort :)

And I'm sorry Olivia but it did sound rude and tbh quite innapropriate considering that wasn't quite relevant to her question.

Olivia, I understand how you feel. But you absolutely came off as rude 😞 I never knew that wearing makeup was a form of "celebration". I also wouldn't worry about makeup for a funeral but we are all different. You could have gotten your point across in a different & more respectful manner. Just because shes wearing makeup doesn't mean that she isn't hurting.. Who are you to verbally attack her when she may have lost a loved one recently? WE have no idea what shes going through so who are we to judge her for wanting to wear makeup?

Please look up the definition of a verbal attack before you LOL. I was not being mean to you in anyway shape or form Olivia. Its very sad to me that out of all I said you are only defending yourself & still not taking her feelings into consideration 😞

I will have to agree with olive. I saw this and thought "what? w...why are they worried about it" when my grandfather died, I slapped some foundation on and that was it. I didn't care, because I as too busy grieving. as expected though, his sister's showed up with loads of blue eyeshadow. I just see that as vanity, honesty. Yes I know I'm being rude but I'm being honest. I am terribly sorry for your loss, it just struck me odd as to why anyone would care about makeup when they lose a loved one.

L@olivia S. you should still answer her question what make a suggestion I don't care if you against. it or nah if you just commenting to be rude why did you go on the thread?? and to answer your question I would do a waterprrof mascara and that's probably all I'd do.

BUT we are all different. I would skip the eyeshadow or if you want, maybe just a subtle look like 4th color in the top row in the crease and the second color on the bottom row in the lid. But if you except to be crying a lot, just skip the eye makeup because it'll make a huge mess.

When my 8 year old cousin died in November I wore darker colors but not too dark, I'd use waterproof eyeshadow like the eyeshadow pot by mabeyline and any water proof mascara you can get your hands on. I'm very sorry for you loss by the way.

Makeup would be the least of my worries, personally, maybe just some black in the crease and waterproof mascara? Btw you're not like a horrible person for wearing makeup to a funeral lmao. Don't let people make you feel that way. I personally believe you should rejoice in all the good times you've had with your loved one rather than beat yourself up over something that you will NEVER have control over. :) I personally feel like being depressed and crying over a deceased loved one is selfish, but that's just me. It's very hard but in personally one of those people who try to make light of it and be happy at such a sad time. sorry for your loss.

I'm sorry for your loss, and don't worry about your makeup as much. I'm sure you're not a bad person and I hope everything turns out well for you.

As for the makeup I would keep it simple like just neutral colors, no glitter/shimmer

@olivia S. Kind of has a point yea maybe she could've of put it across better but none of you need to verbally attack her because it don't make you any better. We aren't here to argue we are here to help one another so please ✋ As for makeup keep it light and natural

Okay. This argument is silly. Everyone's beliefs are different.
In my family we actually celebrate and morn at the same time. We celebrate the passing because they move on to a better afterlife (which is my families belief) but we still morn that they won't physically be with is anymore. It is an Irish tradition in my family. We get dressed all nice. Nothing like extremely fancy but it doesn't have to be black. We have the a day were we have a ceremony as then have something kinda like a cook out.
So I think wear what ever you want when it comes to makeup. But nothing really dramatic.
