Wearing make-up makes a woman as fake as posing with somebody else's bank account makes me dishonest.
The fake-ism part is simply the serious attempt to disguise the true nature and appearance of your physical features.

It is an attempt to lie. In fact, make-up is a non-verbal lie of the physical type.

I don't wear any. I only wear Chapstick or lip balms/moisturizers, which I don't consider makeup. Makeup is too much of a hassle. I've never felt like myself the two or three times I've worn it. Some people can carry it though. I'm not one of them.

Seriously, my make up gives me confidence. Wen am waering it, and a man compliments me, i believe him whole heartedly. But, if am witout it, and a compliment comes in, i see it as mocking.

Okay, I actually exaggerated the HBP part. But make-up can cause quarrel between me and my wife. I even dislike jerry curls and all other forms of hair treatment that is not African/natural. Why you wan make your hair look like oyibo when we know say you nor be oyinbo? Who dey deceive who with fake hair? The day my wife make mistake wear brazilian hair ehn....Lawd have mercy!

Has it occured to you that some of us dont like deception, and that we like things/people to be as natural as possible? (and which Angel did you see in real life talkless of whether he/she has mascara?)

On the flip side, how would you like your husband/boyfriend to have a fake beard, fake muscles, fake baritone voice?
Oya, answer dat one!

Kudos!!! I like girls like you who always admit that make-up was made because of them... Dont forget that your confidence lies in you,not the make-up.. Next time when going out,dont put on make-up and let the world see the real you.. Always remember that there is always an obj or taribo west waiting for you out there.. dont take my comment the other way round oh!!!

Half a lie, is still a lie. Half make-up is STILL make-up. Abi did your chemistry teacher tell you say half-plastic exists?
Plastic look is still plastic look.

Thank you for this honest assessment.

It means we men (who clearly, all this make-up is aimed at attracting/seducing/convincing) have to help boost the confidence and sense of self-esteem of those women that are addicted to make-up. It wont be easy. But it has to start somewhere.

How would the world be if men were to use fake beard, fake moustache, fake baritone voice, fake muscles, etc? Is it not bad and hurtful enough that you women have to endure fake stories and fake declaration of love from men? Think about it PLEASE women...and use your HEAD to do the thinking, please, not your heart (or your mirror) smiley

Rubbing make up makes u classic ,It's lugubriously abysmal that most person lack sense fashion and presentativeness.i make up as a boy to make me more attractive.I don't appreciate girls without make up. Morethanthat girls got draw a stalemate both moderate and overdose of makeups.

Hair longer than your natural hair FAKE
Eyelashes not your natural ones FAKE
Nails longer than your natural nails FAKE
Patches of different colours on your skin FAKE
Are these not enough to say the person who has all this is fake?

Kai, haba. Thats below the belt. What happened to 'giving someone benefit of doubt'?

If she says AND believes she is beautiful, thats all that counts to her. Not even her man has the right to make her believe otherwise. Honesty and integrity is a gift that only you can give to yourself.

True beauty is not physical. It is a state of mind that affects how the heart and head function with self-confidence. The day many women will actually understand and practice this, then indeed, they will be liberated. And their true beauty will come out for all to see. Until then, many of you will keep sentencing yourself to life imprisonment in the penitentiary of self-deception.

Do you know what you are actually saying at all?

merriam-webster's dictionary defines pyrrhic as:
(something): achieved at excessive cost <a Pyrrhic victory>; also : costly to the point of negating or outweighing expected benefits <a great but Pyrrhic act of ingenuity>

Pyrric doesnt sound so cool now, does it? Mr. Make-Up.

The point is, my wife KNOWS that whenever I say she is beautiful or looking pretty, she is sure that it is not down to a thick layer of chemicals plastered all over her face, lips or wherever. You say my opinions are disturbing as if wearing make-up is the default way of life. You say my wife is trying? No, I think she is comfortable, honest and happy with herself! And so am I.

I dont deal in fakes. Neither does she. Simplez.
