A Roman philosopher Plautus once said, “A woman without paint is like food without salt”. It is in human nature to always strive for perfection and new ways to express our selves, cosmetics is the way. Hair care, skincare, toiletry, perfumery and decorative cosmetic products are all used in our daily routines to keep us clean, maintain healthy skin and teeth, to look good and smell nice. European laws that ensure the safety of these types of product call them ‘cosmetics’ and this is the term. Beginning with the Ancient Egyptians 10,000 years Before the Common Era up through today, the 20th century. Civilizations have used forms of cosmetics for centuries in religious rituals, to enhance beauty, and to promote good health. The entire population with large use of cosmetics honored gods, although some of the ingredients were poisonous, allure of cosmetics did not lessen. In Rome, there was a period of time when women were not considered beautiful if they did not wear makeup. England almost accepted a law in 18th century that enabled men to divorce their wives if they caught them wearing makeup. Century later, Queen Victoria publicly declared public use of cosmetic improper and vulgar.…
This interview with Thalia Zuniga compose of ideas of how makeup is expressive of a person’s individuality, how makeup is introduced, its relations with insecurities, and if it is considered an artistic form. In addition, she comments that makeup is a perfect way to express yourself differently, she believes that it helps boost a person’s confidence, and she argues that makeup is composed of a mixture of a lack of confidence and an artistic talent. The overall point of Ms. Zuniga is that makeup is both an art and a cover up of insecurities and that it is a confidence booster. Nevertheless, Ms. Zuniga provides a strong belief of makeup being both an art and a lack of confidence and the thought of it being an expressive act of showing the world…
Most women wear makeup for themselves. We do things that make us feel good internally, that is a part of human nature. Some women feel that putting on gold eye shadow, wearing red lipstick, filling in their eyebrows, and contouring their cheekbones are just a few makeup tricks that are fun to do and heighten their confidence. Shaming a woman for wearing makeup is like shaming a person for getting their ears pierced, or shaming a person for purchasing a pair of jeans they feel makes…
In ancient egypt (c. 3150-31 B.C.) makeup was extremely important to everyone then. The Egyptians viewed makeup as a sign of holiness. Traders traded makeup often, and tombs have been found buried with cosmetic pallets. Ancient Egyptians believed makeup had magical healing properties, and wore makeup less as an aesthetic, but for religious purposes.…
Makeup has been around for quite a long time. Some people might think it is overrated. To some makeup is one of the best things they have ever laid their hands on. Girls and boys can say that makeup has become one of the best things that has happened to them. I, for example, can relate to this.

The uprise of the cosmetic industry and platforms created by beauty gurus has altered the way women are perceived by the opposite sex. Men often believe they are being fooled due to the enhancement of a woman's appearance. Its is no secret that makeup can help a woman appear as she wishes and even be seen as a completely different person. In present times women have become known for fashion and makeup and are now making a living out of this profession. I believe makeup is not only serving for negative purposes as men believe. Makeup has brought a woman's attributes to light and proves that women are passionate, confident, and driven.…
Women in today’s society are constantly being reminded of what is considered beautiful. There are thousands of advertisements that promote this elusive beautiful image to women of all ages, shapes and sizes. By glorifying celebrities and super models, society has built up impossible standards of beauty, which led to feelings of inadequacy among women. The YWMCA reported that $7 billion is spent each year on cosmetics (Beauty at Any Cost, 2008, p. 2). Among those big sellers were Cover Girl, Revlon and MAC. From a young age, girls are taught to experiment with makeup to increase their attractiveness. Different amounts can be applied as needed, and it works as a temporary boost in self-esteem. What is so appealing to most women about cosmetics is that it can be a quick an easy way to temporarily solve beauty problems.…
Makeup brings many girls the self confidence it takes to go throughout their day. I learned throughout this experience how important others opinions were. I learned how bare my face felt without it, and how different I felt. Because I noticed these things I realised how strong a person I have to be without makeup (or things that make me look like what people want). I noticed how much people expected of me and how much they judged on simple facial features. I learned that I felt much better about myself when I was around those who I trusted would not judge me, for example my family or close friends. My personality is what makes me, but people did not care what my great characteristics were if they could see the simple flaws on my face. This made me upset with myself and I felt that I needed to make it more evident that there was more than meets the eye. Sometimes I felt obligated to wear makeup, like society had ingrained how important it was for me to "look the part". Overall, I feel that I have become a stronger person through this process and how important it is to notice my self worth and individuality.…

What would be the life of women without makeup? As I am speaking on this topic today most of you will think I’ll start of with a funny mockery and make you laugh, I’m afraid i wont! I won’t follow the same track! For us beauty works like a drug, and many of us are addicted. The evidence is everywhere and ironically, it is not pretty. Beauty has rewards in our society. Big ones! Society tells women that their beauty is ever-loving important. Put on your make-up, quickly hide your true face with this doll face! It teach them to hate their face and hate thier skin to look at all the other girls and women around them in school, while walking on streets, while working in office and on tv and in ads and teach them to feel like they are monstrosity in comparison. So with the pressures of living up to maternal or domestic ideals, with the oppression of the existing culture of beauty women are forced, they are compelled to ware concealer and foundation and powder on their face, and lie to them selves about what they really look like Now what if they don’t wear any makeup for a change what if they do whatever they want with their faces . will we accept them, will we look at them, talk about them be nice to them as we used to be when they wore makeup NO! we wont! They’ll l be punished by our ideology that is using attitudes , economic pressure, and even legal judgments regarding their appearance to undermine them psychologically and politically So that is the reason why…it’s not a matter to laugh at, we laugh when they wear makeup; we laugh and tell them they are ugly when they don’t! So we should just stop telling women that they should find themselves beautiful and that they should love themselves when we are standing right here judging them on how they may look without makeup, ready to laugh at their appearance I think it’s time for us to realize that instead of telling them to find their inner beauty we should be working hard on not forcing them to follow this oppressed…
The Stereotype that says woman only wear makeup to impress guys has really gown in today's society. As makeup gets more popular and more types of makeup has come out people have started this stereotype. Makeup is for girls it helps us feel more confident in ourselves, it gives us happiness, and it gives us a way to express ourselves. When I do makeup I never think about how a guy is going to react, I think about how my best friends are gonna boost up my confidence when they see my highlight, or they see my contour. When a girl sees herself in makeup she feels more pretty because we can hide our imperfections. Makeup helps us express who we are whether we are in simple day to day makeup or makeup that is more flashy for night time. This helps…
Dave Barry, the author of the essay “The Ugly Truth about Beauty”, in the text Mirror on America believes women are too concerned with the way they look. He implies that women are never satisfied with their look, while all men “think of themselves as average looking” (35) .

The author relays this message when he talks about supermodel Cindy Crawford giving out makeup tips:…
