Makeup - The Decoy or Artistic Expression
| Posted on October 21, 2011 at 4:34 PM |
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?? |

The bible says that God helps those who helps themselves, therefore God provides me with a vehicle to express my creativity

I dont beleive that wearing make up hides who you are or that there is some underlying factor such as having a low self-esteem which contributes to you wearing make up . For the most part it is only cosmetic.

I think it works both ways. Every once in a while one shoud let their natural beauty shine through. Then again, if it helps to build self-esteem and makes you feel good about yourself then go ahead and have fun with it.

I prefer a woman who is both artistic and expressive in there use of makeup. I dont care if you embrace natural beauty or cant go out without something else to enhance your features. All I want to know is that you look good!!!!

Personally, I prefer a woman who uses just a little make up to ENHANCE, not produce the image of beauty.

I believe make-up was created to ENHANCE a woman's beauty. While some women may go over the limit and abuse the purpose of it, others utitlize it in moderation and in the end compliments their true beauty.

Sometimes our engineers could meet some problems during rapid prototyping.
Because the drawing is not suitable to be rapid prototype. Many designers
think that their works should be perfect. Actually it's difficult to
rapid prototype ,and it 's impossible to be moulded when mass are needed.
