The Face Palette wants to know your views on men enhancing their palette.     Is it ok for men to do facials, get manicures, pedicures or wear chap stick and lip gloss?

The debate is long-standing as to whether or not women should wear make-up or just to let their natural beauty palette speak for itself.   The school of tradition argues that all women have been created in the image of God, so there is no need for any enhancers to this image. They also argue that women who wear makeup take it too far by pasting and caking their faces thereby hiding their 'true' beauty.   It is also often expressed that women who place a value on makeup suffer from low-self esteem and in a bid to hide this cover it up with makeup.     The school of modern thought however, view women who wear makeup as liberal, independent and artistic.   They do not see it as a decoy to hiding low-self worth but as a vehicle for women to enhance their imageand beauty.   Modernists argue that it is these women who know the true meaning of 'beauty' as they are able to identify their beauty enough to want to enhance it and culture it.     The Face Palette wants to know if Makeup is - A decoy or vehicle of artistic expression -What is your take??
