Makeup makes Carrie Underwood feel better

Singer Carrie Underwood says she never goes out without makeup as it peps her up.

The "Blown Away" hitmaker has confessed she doesn't feel comfortable leaving the house bare-faced and prefers to put on a full face of makeup so she feels as if she has made "some sort of effort".

"I don't think I ever have makeup-free days, to be honest," usmagazine.com quoted Underwood as saying.

"I wear makeup for me. I don't want to walk by a mirror and feel like I haven't given some sort of effort. I just feel better when I have a little on," she added.
