I know am not the only one who have noticed that excessive makeup...especially the one they call 'foundation' make young ladies look old! Why women have refused to see this or rather find the courage to refuse this thing is beyond me. For me, some makeups are for age enhancements and young ladies (worse on their wedding day), have no business coating their face the way they do! angry
tell them!!!

I've visited many blogs but I've never visited a blog that completely covers everything I need. I was surfing the net when I stumbled on this blog. At first, I was'nt optimistic about what I was gonna find inside but after I visited it for the first time. I couldn't stop but visit it over and over again everyday. I've decided not to be selfish, so I'm gonna let you visit it too and have the fun that I had.

While sipping Twining black tea, flavored with mango and strawberry this morning, I reflected on the growing dependence, of today’s woman on makeup. From contouring, to plastic surgery, fanatic exercise and eating regime et al. All this, to attain the perfect peak of “beauty” for varied reasons, which may or may not stem from, self-esteem conflicts and end in one word “MAN”.



Dwelling on this Achilles’ heel of females, I recalled the words of Havelock Ellis “The absence of flaw in beauty, is itself a flaw”. This quote sums up most of my feelings on the issue.
That chin, jawline, broad nose, big lips, overbite, thin browns or round face, you are trying to cover or restructure with contouring and other beauty tricks, may just be the most appealing thing about you that draws the eye. What you perceive as a flaw, is perfection to someone else.



My question is “Why settle for commonality, by looking like a thousand others, than uniqueness by looking like YOU?” Don’t get me wrong, you can be adventurous with makeup just to switch up your looks but over-dependence on makeup is a character flaw or weakness that runs deep. Moderation is key!

Today I leave you with the words of Reverend Sean Parker Dennison “The ability to see beauty is the beginning of moral sensibility”.

asians and europeans do as much make-up as blacks, they're just pale, so they have to put twice the average black person's make-up for anyone to notice. @topic, na una dey toast girls with plenty make-up, na una go still complain about am. What do men want?
