Why was makeup invented? We must be self-conscious by nature or something.

The best day of my life will be the day when all the celebrities show up in public without any makeup on. It’s sad to think that male actors wear makeup. I’ve always thought of makeup as a girl thing. Well, I guess there’s always stage makeup for thespians. Many female celebrities try to put on this image that inner beauty is more important, blah, blah, blah, but then they go and get plastic surgery or wear heavy makeup. It’s hypocritical.

Why was makeup invented? We must be self-conscious by nature or something. I don’t know. Or maybe makeup adds to our personality and gives girls something to talk about. Actually I take that back. I’ve seen some guys wear nail polish. Guys also wear earrings. (Which I guess actually qualifies as jewelry, but you know what I mean) This could open a whole new can of worms…

    Great points. Lest we forget “guyliner.” I think it’s a just some grand design to get us to spend our money. In nature, it is the male of the species that are the pretty ones.
