Make up has been used over the centuries to basically enhance beauty. It’s primary function is accentuate the features of the face to make for a more striking form. The main components of a make up kit are lip stick, foundation and blusher or rouge, mascara and eye shadow. Many people now include lip gloss to this list as an essential.
Historically make up has played a part in human life since Ancient Egypt but this type of make up was applied in a more theatrical fashion rather than what we see today. Today everyday make up users try to achieve a more natural look saving the razzmatazz for evenings or social occasions. Transvestites apply lots of make up often stepping over the line to the ridiculous but this is done purposefully as it is all part of the act. One famous male make up wearer is Michael Davis of Morecambe in England. Davis paved the way for many misunderstood men to openly wear make up in public.
More women than men wear make up on a day to day basis and in the twenty first century the idea is to create a youthful look, full lips, large eyes and eye lashes with high cheek bones and define nose is the order of the day. But it can go wrong when young girls apply make up to look older but end up looking ridiculous, youth is wasted on the young after all. Or when a poor soul has never been shown how to apply it properly and end up looking more like Coco the clown than a Channel model.
