why do alot of women think they need make up to be beautiful??!!?

Question

i personally don't see the big deal in make up, it just teahces young girls to be fake about their natural beauty..

i mean don't get me wrong now and then i do wear make up but like just to go down the road my friend all puts on the foundation, eye sahdow, blush.. blah blah blah.. i mean is it really worth it??

and what would you do if your money runs out one day and you can't afford make up?? tell me your views on this.. :)

Answer 1

Probably because "society" says you have to cover up any "flaws" you have. I choose to not wear makeup, i only wear eye liner or shadow. I believe that girls should choose whether they want to wear make up. Girls wear make up to "look better" but really, when too much is put on makes them look scary. And that's no good. I heard on tv today that "America's image of beauty is distorted". And sadly it is. =[

I've loved makeup ever since I was a kid. But I don't require it to be beautiful. In fact, I rarely wore makeup for years. It's only been in this past year I started wearing it most days. Makeup is a fun tool. You can create so many different looks with makeup. I rarely do the same thing twice. In a way, it's a medium I use to express my artistic side. Personally, I don't care what people think of my use of makeup. I wear it for me. It's a joy in my life. And some days, the time I use to put on my makeup is the only "me" time I get all day. If I get to the point that I can't afford makeup, well, I guess I'll go back to not wearing it. But then I'd probably go back to cutting my hair every other week so I could do something different.

Make-up is not at all necessary for a human being. Its a big time wasting and money wasting job. I think inner beauty is more important than outer beauty. We all prefer to have a friend who is good from heart, whether beautiful or not. We can also look beautiful without makeup. Some people are really self conscious and because of that they want to be the most beautiful. This goes on and one day they become so mad about the thing that they can't live without that.This leads to psychological imbalance.
And using makeup all the time spoils your skin nature and makes it dry and look old producing wrinkles.
so don't be serious about anything and don't try anything artificial on your skin.
Take Care of Your Beauty Dear!

I don't mind wearing makeup... I think we don't need it but it helps bring out our most prominent features. I like being able to change my makeup to match mu outfit and spice things up a little when I go out at night. Its fun!

I think some women put too much faith in their makeup thinking they must wear it or else they aren't pretty but it doest concern me. To each their own. Everyone has different views and who am I to say we should or shouldn't wear it. I agree that our media and society puts to much emphasis on us always having to look out best and not telling us that you can achieve this by just being confident, instead they say we can only be beautiful if we wear it but it all filters down from Hollywood, magazines etc. And they are that way cause that industry puts the strain on them about it. Its a big rat race,

Answer 5

Honestly I think I look best when I wake up in the morning and have no make up on and my face is still puffy from sleeping. But I like to wear makeup because I think it accentuates my features. Sure women dont need to look "perfect", but theres nothing wrong with trying your hardest and getting as close as you can.
All i wear is abit of powder to make my skin colour consistent and smooth, mascara to lengthen and darken my lashes, light eyeliner on my bottom lid, and sometimes some light blush. I sont go all wild with the eye shadow like some people do, or liike black lip liner with pink lipstick (ew!).
Honestly I dont think it even looks like I wear makeup.... thats th elook i like to go for.
If my money ran out for makeup I would be just fine with no make up ;)

What is wrong with enhancing your beauty? You use makeup and you are well aware that it makes you more beautiful. It is not a big deal, unless you make it a big deal. If you are stuck to any one single aspect of your life, in this case makeup, it is not healthy. So be it makeup or anything else, one should have balance in everything.

Answer 7

I only wear a little makeup. In fact, I only use cover up, lip gloss and mascara to accent my features. I see girls my age (13) and older (younger sadly enough too) and they have tons of makeup piled on top. With me you cant tell I am wearing it unless you saw me right before I put it on. and I could easily go without it, I just like the way my mascara breings out my eyes!

Answer 8

I think it's a very basic feeling of having done something good for yourself. Having done something to look good. Just the way we feel happy when we wear a new outfit or loose weight. You feel a sense of control, that you can do something about things you are not very happy with. It's a personal choice. I believe one should try and do things that make them happy. Money shouldn't come in the way as long as one is not overdoing it.

Answer 9

Some women REALLY need makeup because they look ugly without it. Make up is used to enhance/define your facial features. I'm not really into makeup and I wear it every now and then. Would you believe that I don't look too good in makeup??? Weird huh?

That could only mean one thing....Im NATURALLY BEAUTIFUL!

Answer 10

I wear makeup- as you can see by my past question...

I don't wear it every day, its only when I have a bad skin day or I don't feel confident

Women hide behind makeup, it makes you feel confident. But I don't say I do...

I would survive without makeup, easy. But it is fun, to extenuate your best features and make yourself feel beautiful. Every one loves that, and I'm sure you do!
