Default For the Ladies...

How concerned are you while camping about your appearance? I really could care less and enjoy being able to not worry about being expected to have shaved legs and styled hair...but I see some women bringing makeup kits and mirrors and still taking time to work on their looks.

I never worried about makeup, but when I was single and went camping with friends, I was a little more concerned with my general appearance. I still like being at a site that has shower facilities, but the razor rarely makes an appearance.

I don't worry about styling my hair or makeup, but some face cleanser wipes sure do help make me feel "fresher"! And no, the razor doesn't even come along!

I think any type of wet nap can be a good thing to take along with you, but of the campers and hikers I know I could really only think of one I know that would worry about her makeup. My sister and its still cute too she can break out a full set of makeup just about anywhere.

I never even take my make-up with me although there is usually some lip gloss in my purse. I don't even buy facial wipes I have a small child so I just use the diaper wipes I always have along with me.

I don't worry about makeup but I do bring my razor with me. I can't stand how I feel if I don't shave. As long as I get a shower every day and am clean and can shave I am good to go.

We usually stay at a site with showers, so I will still shave, but the hair gets pulled back and I'm ready to go. Outside in the heat and humidity, and doing the outdoor activities we like to do, I couldn't imagine trying to keep up with makeup.

I don't worry about my hair, it's usually in a hair tie if I'm out. Where we camp, short pants are not an option and makeup has perfume that attracts bugs.
