Do you consider make-up a mask or an enhancement of your natural beauty?
Yesterday someone told me that I was hiding behind a mask. I asked him whatever did he mean. He said that if I'm wearing make-up that I'm not proud of my natural self and that wearing make-up is a way to manipulate men into thinking that you look different. Well, I'll be damned, I had to stop my fist from entering his mouth.
The question "Do you consider make-up a mask or..." is a thought-provoking inquiry that invites us to reflect on the multifaceted nature of cosmetics. On one hand, make-up can be seen as a form of concealment that hides one's true appearance and creates a façade. This perspective suggests that make-up is akin to a mask that people wear to project a particular image or to fit in with certain expectations.
On the other hand, make-up can be viewed as a tool for self-expression, creativity, and individuality. This perspective highlights how make-up can enhance, highlight, or transform one's features to showcase one's personality, mood, or preferences. Overall, the question prompts us to examine our beliefs about beauty, identity, and authenticity, and to recognize the diverse ways in which people use make-up in their lives.

Unfortunately, people still don't know what makeup is for. I saw and noticed that a lot in my work as a makeup artist at the time. I've also experimented a lot with different makeup styles and products myself. I also got that mask comment thrown at my head... Show more
I prefer to see a woman in a natural way or who wears her makeup moderately so that she doesn't see the shine on her face, I think that when they use it in a basic way it's fine. I really love seeing a woman without makeup and appreciating her naturalness, although I respect women who use it consistently and in a fixed way.
Makeup may be necessary for a woman to feel more confident in herself and to face life in a better way
Speaking for myself: I feel like a mask when I wear makeup myself. It feels unnatural on my skin, which is always restless. But that says nothing about others, of course. Above all, do what makes you feel comfortable.!
One day my mother said daughter it's better to look natural that way they see you as you are and of course I loved wearing makeup until the day I had my first son that when they saw me pale the comments started and from there I put a soft color on my lips and try to look as natural as possible.
