I can find something bad and unacceptable while fully acknowledging that it's art. Art is also not an "illimitable" form of self expression. There's obvious limits, whether they're physical or intellectual. Imagine someone getting a tattoo of a child getting molested. It's "ART" and it's "ILLIMITABLE" and it's a form of "SELF EXPRESSION", yet I can still criticize it, find it disgusting, awful, bad, terrible and unacceptable. |
| I only skimmed through so I didn't see every single comment and maybe somebody already touched on this but- it's saddening and concerning to see that most of the disapproval of makeup is aimed at women, when we're not the only ones to wear it. Aside from idols and celebrities there are thousands and thousands of men who wear makeup, for the same reasons most women do, for themselves. Makeup is a form of art and self expression and most importantly a way to build confidence and self acceptance. Being comfortable in your skin is most important. I love makeup and whoever wants to wear it can go ahead- do it for yourself, or if you want to let your natural beauty shine through without any help from makeup then do you. My only tip is take care of your skin after a long day, exfoliate it and treat it to a mask once in a while lol (*˘︶˘*) |

A fascist, such as I, would ban certain "art forms" (which is really just terrible makeup application). |
| Yes, I think women look so much better with makeup tbh. |
 |
| As long as she doesn't look like a clown lol. |
  |
| Sure. Anyone can do whatever they want with their face/body. |
 |
| It's not like they're hurting anybody. If someone's wearing enough makeup to drastically alter their features, you'll know, regardless of your familiarity with it (unless ofc you've only seen them in pictures, then glhf) |
 |
| I don't care if people wear it or not. |
Yoshiie said: it's the same thing as putting effort in what you wear. there's nothing "under confidence" about it. also, people need to use their looks to attract one another and then get to know someone better. at that point, people will show their true faces.I'm a guy and I think that the girl is just hiding her real self because of under confidence or whatever, I think if they want to go out with a guy and the like then they should show themselves as they really are.

Oh i like the second one. light make up But actually if it comes to make up, i am prepared to fight to the end of the world to prevent anyone from putting some on my face bah ahaha |

In the second picture, the girl has tons of makeup, as well as more than likely photoshop. The difference between the first and second picture is that the second girl used more neutral colors. |
| I do wonder what the guys who said they prefer a bare face mean with that...... Also why would a girl use make-up just to trick a guy? lmao never heard of that before. I do use make-up myself, usually naturally but from time to time a bit more. Naturally still includes foundation, consealer, powder and mascara though. |
 |
| I love make up, but I don't like going overboard with it. I like to be more simplistic. |
| yup girl should wear makeup if they feel comfortable and confident with that nothing wrong....you westerner really have nothing to do ha asking silly questions first world problem i guess |

Aah now you mention it =w= I'm not really good at this lol |

| I don't wear it. It feels uncomfortable on my face. As for the question of approving it, I don't really approve or disapprove of it. They put so much nasty stuff in make up, I don't know why people would want to put that shit on their face. |
| Personally I don't believe in make-up. If people don't like my face they don't have to look at it. |
| from my personal experience i've seen women wear makeup more to impress other women than to impress men. |
| HA. But on topic, I think a lot of girls do not need makeup and look beautiful/better without it, but I also do think it is cool when used in theater or for complete transformation. But I agree, prepare for a whole different person underneath! xD |
 |
| I really like lipstick on women (I really like classic red and dark red). Lips that aren't a shade of red (pink is really hit or miss) kinda looks silly to me and I don't find it attractive 70% of the time (like green, blue, purple, orange, blank, etc). Other makeup is complimentary, but I don't feel any attraction to it. |
| I'm in a glam rock band, so obviously I'm pro-makeup. I think everybody should wear makeup if they want to, and if they don't want to, that's cool too. |

| I am up against a lot of makeup... just some puffs here and there are fine |
 |
| Make up is distracting TAT I dont know why people really love make up like if you want to appear pretty you have to put at least a dozen of them =w= |
|
| only if they use acrylic paint........ |
