We could just walk around wearing black, grey, and brown clothes and look very plain, and not braid our hair or anything, "because God made us naturally beautiful." But no. We think it's acceptable to wear pretty dresses and skirts with lace and frills and cute patterns and bright colors, and we think it's okay to put out hair in elaborate braids and curl/straighten it. What's the difference between sparkles in my dress and sparkles on my eyelids? What's the difference between a pink skirt and pink lipstick? How come curling my naturally straight hair is okay but putting on eyeliner is unacceptable? The problem with make up is that you are trying to be something which you are actually not, therefore you are deceiving ppl.Make up becomes wrong when it becomes an idol. When you base your worth and beauty solely on what make up you wear and how you look, that's when it becomes wrong. But anything can become an idol. Even our clothes can become idols, but do we say clothes are wrong? (I'm not talking about being immodest, I'm talking about thinking only pretty clothes can make you beautiful) God made masterpieces when He made us, and we shouldn't be ashamed of how we look, or think we should depend on powder and ink to be beautiful. But on the other hand, it's just powder and ink. If you want to do something a little extra, or if you want to play with different colors (have you seen some of the eyeshadow designs makeup artists have done??? Such talent! It's gorgeous!) or if you want to clean up a little for picture day or whatever, you're still beautiful. God still loves you. Makeup does not define you. You are beautiful with and without it. God loves you with and without it. You can go to church with and without it. Your significant other should be able to accept and love you with and without it. It's not tattoos or piercings. It's makeup. It's fine. Chill, guys. The other the bible never said you can't braid your hair and wear "pretty" stuff This what Ellen White says "“Let us remember that the elements of beauty lie not so much in feature and color as in the expression of intelligence and benevolence. The use of lipstick, unnatural shades of fingernail polish and similar cosmetics employed in the common ‘make-up’ partake of the artificial and are out of keeping with Christian simplicity. Cleanliness and Christlike modesty should also be observed in the care and grooming of the person seeking at all times to please and rightly represent Christ our Lord." @kwesi Do not let your adorning be external—the braiding of hair and the putting on of gold jewelry, or the clothing you wear. 1 peter 3:3 |

You're not glorifying yourself, so it should be okay. I don't wear makeup. I find it too hard to put on, and frankly I just don't care for it. But if other girls/women feel more at ease and confident wearing some makeup, I don't see why they can't. And also wearing make up is bad for your skin The thing is, many women don't wear makeup for guys. They wear it for themselves, because they like to apply it. It's a form of art for them.  |

Ok, I'm a guy so forgive me for stating my opinion, but let me say this, makeup is not inherently evil, it can certainly become an obsession, but in moderation is not nesesarilly a bad thing. However, it is not very good for your skin long term, which is honestly why I'm not really in favor of it, however, wearing it doesn't make you a bad Christian, even the verse in 1 peter 3:3 doesn't really say out adornment is bad, it just emphasizes that you don't want to be a (paraphrasing Jesus here) whitewashed tomb that's beautiful on the outside, even a work of art, but on the inside is empty things, and death and destruction. So, it's not wrong, but like many things, if you choose to do it, do in moderation, don't go all human Barbie

Use makeup to enhance your appearance, not cover it up. |

Personally, I find it sad that we as a society have degraded others to the point that they need to wear makeup to feel confident about their appearance, but that's just me. However, coming from a girl who would wear a little makeup but knows that if she started she wouldn't be able to stop, the reason that girls wear makeup to feel more confident is because they believe that more people will like them if they're beautiful, thus making them feel popular, in control, and having value. Also, notice how how the definition of a "little amount of makeup" changes from fashion season to fashion season? A couple of years ago, it would have been defined as a bit of foundation and a smear of brightly coloured lipstick. Now it's more along natural lines. It'll probably change again in a couple of months, which goes to show how much those insecure people are influenced by the fashion trends. They think that by being in fashion people will respect them more. Also, @whoever said that no one these days would notice if you wore a bit of makeup, I will lol. I pick up really quickly whether someone is wearing makeup or not... |

And also wearing make up is bad for your skin The thing is, many women don't wear makeup for guys. They wear it for themselves, because they like to apply it. It's a form of art for them. Ok, but I know that the "elements of beauty" do not depend on what color your lips are or how sharp your cheekbones are or how long your eyelashes are. I know that I am absolutely stunning without any makeup whatsoever. But if I still want to change things up a bit and do some pretty eyeshadow or blush or a cute lipstick, how is that wrong? It's no different than deciding I want to curl my hair today for no reason than to look cute, or putting on pretty shoes for no reason but to add an extra boost of "I'm feeling good today." Makeup is like an accessory, like a cute purse or scarf or headband. It's just something pretty you put on just because. And about the deception...I don't think I'm deceiving anyone. It's pretty obvious that my lips aren't naturally a dark pink or that my eyelashes aren't naturally black. You think it's wrong to "deceive" someone into thinking I naturally have rosy cheeks? And I don't do makeup for guys. I do whatever I feel like for me, and if a guy happens to like whatever I happen to be doing, whether it be makeup or no makeup or curled hair or heels or a glittery sweater or sweatpants and tennis shoes or straight hair or whatever I feel like doing, then whoopdedoo for them. If I do makeup, I do it for me. If I want to wear a pretty dress to go to Walmart or attend a party in sweatpants and a t shirt, I do it for me. And my boyfriend doesn't care what I'm wearing as far as my clothes or my makeup. He thinks I'm beautiful as a person both ways. And that's how girls should think of themselves. Beautiful human beings no matter what they wear, makeup or not. Obviously if someone has decided that they are only beautiful if they wear makeup, and if they're trying to attract guys' attention with makeup, then makeup turns into a problem. It's the way you approach the makeup, not the makeup itself. |

It wasn't to be vain, it was just to have a sense of normality, and make her feel the same way she did before cancer struck her life. Anyone agree with me out there? #OperationTimeTravel |

Honestly, I don't think God would see any problem with what she was doing. It wasn't to be vain, it was just to have a sense of normality, and make her feel the same way she did before cancer struck her life. Anyone agree with me out there? #OperationTimeTravel There is a big difference between someone wearing a wig, and drawing eyebrows on their face because they don't have hair, and someone who obsesses over their makeup everyday for no particular reason, other than they are vain and want to look better than everyone else. |

I wear foundation, sometimes mascara, eyeshadow, and lipstick but I try to do it in a way that is natural. I don't understand why I'm evil for doing that

It just means you have different convictions and boundaries, and that's totally ok.  |

The arguement that we shouldn’t use makeup to cover up the way God made us is not a good one. For the record, I’m not a fan of makeup, but I have issues with this particular arguement. There are people born with severe facial deformities who were certainly not meant to look that way. God will give them a new face if they go to heaven. Since we are so imperfect, God will probably give us all new faces, meaning that our current looks are not all His design.
Now, there are other reasons why I would suggest against wearing makeup, but this arguement is not one of them. |

It's funny how some guys say they like women who eschew makeup and jewelry, but then ignore the girls who follow that principle.

also an update from me for like makeup and stuff, i don't think there's anything wrong with wearing makeup (most of the time). however, it is not a big priority to me, and i personally do not feel like spending time every day applying makeup when i can be sleeping instead haha...

I personally don’t wear it because it’ll probably mess up my skin. I honestly think it’s sad that some people only feel beautiful with it on, natural beauty should always come first. But if that floats your boat, go ahead!

On the topic of makeup:
I believe that we should try to maintain our natural beauty. However, some people wear makeup because of their profession, and for other reasons. In short: Makeup is okay, to an extent. It's a rather simple opinion really. The majority of people have this opinion I'm sure, and the reason some people here on Guide seem radical is because they are the talkers here. |

I remember this topic, wow...
As someone who now wears makeup on occasion, I don't see the big deal. Then again, I think a lot of us have grown up and realized what's more important than wearing makeup or not wearing makeup. That doesn't mean we should go buck wild and become a walking Bratz or Barbie doll, but if it's minimal and natural I don't see the big deal. But just please blend your foundation properly.
