What Is Makeup?
![]() Makeup is very controversial these days! People are asking all kinds of questions such as, “Is Makeup Feminist?” and “Is Makeup False Advertising?” The one question NOT being asked is probably the most important one of all, “WHAT IS MAKEUP?!?” To understand, I’ve broken down the essential elements of makeup for you to understand:
Mascara: It’s a statistical probability that there are tiny bugs living on your eyelashes that feast on your skin cells, sebum, and also mascara. 1. To make your eyelashes more pronounced
Blush: the only reason to wear blush is to play Liesl in a community theatre production of
Eyebrow pencil: heavy brows are all the rage these days. Get the “Cara Delvigne” look by lightly drawing more brow hairs into your eyebrow. However, if you have two eyebrows (as is the current fashion), making them match will mean chasing the brow dragon and filling them in more and more until you’ve gone from Frida Kahlo to Bert and Ernie.
Nail Polish: Actual paint for your nails. Only an anti-feminist, self-loathing misogynist would paint over her perfectly good, natural nails with some unnatural colour. Nail polish is definitely false advertising, leading people to believe your nails are actually really blue, or purple, or red with nautical stars, or ladybugs. Tsk tsk, for shame. |
