Though this post is old and seems to have devolved into a pissing contest, I thought I'd chime in since I have pluto exactly conjunct my libra ascendant. Although I appreciate beauty and enjoy dressing up, for many years of my life I made a sort of semi-conscious effort to *not* 'do myself up' like other girls that seems to have been rooted in: 1) Not wanting to mislead guys into thinking I looked differently than I did (! you know how guys complain about the girl they think is fine but then looks like a dog without makeup); and 2) Not wanting to attract a guy (and believe that he liked me) who didn't really like ME and how I really looked. So maybe it has to do with just wanting to be real, and only attract real things.
I bet you can guess how that turned out. lillybelle knows of which she speaks. So now I just don't even **** with people on that level. I 'do myself up' because it is a fun, girly thing to do. But you can best believe these shallow men who are so easily and obviously swayed by the most trivial superficialities like clothes, makeup, fake everything, are nowhere on my radar. People are ridiculous. Those things don't have anything to do with a person's soul or value or inherent character, or their place in your life. They can be bought on a credit card (you don't even have to have real money), and they can be gone as soon as the credit runs out. Librascorpion knows of what she speaks as well.
