Apart from a bottomless pit of profit, what is the point of make-up and women's beauty products in general ?

Why are women so embedded in feeling they 'need' so much of the stuff?

@whowasthatmaskedman The cosmetics market is huge and it’s not a farce. The weight loss marked is a farce.

@whowasthatmaskedman Properly applied makeup shouldn’t look like “war paint”. It should just accentuate the good bits :)

And most women appreciate you telling them that you noticed their make up :)

@justanothername Seriously? Do we have to?? Fashion and style have ebbed and flowed since before Egyptian times. even womens weight and shape (and mens) have gone up, down and sideways. For example Mae West to Jayne Mansfield to Twiggy to Kim Kardashian I just think the person inside is more important, and thats how I followed my path. Its not do much that I think your way doesnt happen. Its just not how I have chosen to be..😷

@whowasthatmaskedman I’m not interested in history. I’m taking about now.

Ask your wife, or any woman out there if they appreciate it when a guy tells them they look gorgeous when they have make up on.

They would be lieing if they said no.

Because they have been marketed to by the fashion and cosmetics industy to compete.. Either for a place in the female pecking order. Or Bachelor style for the man. Its a farce.😷

@whowasthatmaskedman The cosmetics market is not a farce. Women always want to be beautiful and cosmetics make that happen.

The weight loss market wether it be pill or ready packaged meal is definitely a farce but they keep pulling them in.

@justanothername We will have to disagree. The original body decorations were tatoos, given to both men and women in different cultures and for different reasons. But adornment of that type for purposes of "beauty" was rare and for the wealthy. until recently.😷

They have found women's makeup in ancient ruins. It is not a new thing and meeting that demand is not a sign of runaway greed. It there were no market to begin with.....

To meet the needs of a huge market that has been around longer than most of us have been on this planet.
