Hi, well some people like to wear makeup to feel good about themselves. Some people just like to dressup, instead of playing with dolls they put makeup on. Others want to impress people by wearing makeup. I'm not sure how true this is, but I did hear that if someones ugly then makeup won't help, and if their pretty then they don't need makeup. So some do feel that there is no point in makeup. However, many woman nowadays feel that makeup is apart of them.

Depends on who you are...

Some people try to cover, features they dont like about themselves. (making their nose smaller, lips bigger and fuller )others try to enhance the features on them, that they feel are important.

Some people try to be differant, and want a new look for themselves, or individuality that their natural look doesn't always give them.

Some people hide, certain features like freckles, scars, and acne, or dark spots

Makeup oftens boosts their self esteem a litte, and helps them feel more safe, and less vunerable, to people who care about personal aprearances.

Some people are "make up is for -insert sterotype-". but it's not like that, It's no better or worse, than wearing deoterant, you dont really smell that fresh for that long!, shaving your legs, Your legs aren't that smooth, wearing a wire bra, your breasts aren't really that big. coloring your hair, your hair isn't that color,

There is always something, no one escapes from the trying to change your physical features.
Ex: highheels, smaller shoes, earrings, hair ties, barrettes, rings, bracelets, perfume, lotions, sprays, hair sprays/ gels, glitter, anything that isn't nude, is an extention of yourself....of something you want to show to other people. Make up is just one of those many options.
