I personally like wearing it and feel more comfortable & think it's a good way to enhance features, cover any imperfections.

yep I don't wear it every day, only when going out out

It's an artform. Even if you don't like wearing it, it'd be weird to say it's a "dislike" to see it done well.

I never wear it nowadays.
But I love to see people making the best of themselves.

I really enjoy it, it's fun to put on, even if not going anywhere. I don't wear it every day but when I feel like I need a bit of pep in my step I go for it and it helps. :hee:

I love watching other people put makeup on, but only in real life, I don't find the videos that exciting.

On YT its so competitive with the makeup tutorials, there's soo many on there :rolleyes: lol . i can't be bothered watching them either . I've seen clips of some , but i think people find the horror movie makeup more fascinating to watch .
And i find it more amazing and clever seeing people use makeup to look like celebrities like this

Especially the 80's more so , bright lipstick and heavy eyeliners were the fashion.

Marc's original point wasn't even about Fife.

But, yes, LT can't be seen to be accommodating, wouldn't want the big footie lads thinking he's gay. :worry:

Not that I’m not conventional by modern standards either but men started wearing these things long before women. Same goes for pink, long hair and high heels.

Men wore these things in the 1570s. I think the issue’s with baby boomers thinking their generation is the most ancient.

Yes people seem to get very confused with the whole age ranges of these categories, a lot of folk who think they're millennials aren't either, 25 is the youngest age of a millennial and everyone seems to forget Gen X which a lot of people accused of being "boomers" are.

'Boomer' is supposed to be an insult, after the boomers are the silent generation who were born before the war or during and they are also being lumped in, it's ignorance really, and just a pathetic way to attack people, basically gen x, baby boomer and silent gen are all boomers in some peoples eyes, and yes 4 to 19 are gen Z, not millennials at all :laugh:

My 11 year old nephew thinks he's a millennial and my brother (his dad) is a boomer, neither are correct, in fact at 43 my brother is much closer to being a millennial than my nephew :idc:

:wavey:

“Baby boomers (boomers for short) are the demographic cohort following the Silent Generation and preceding Generation X. The generation is most often defined as individuals born between 1946 and 1964, during the post–World War II baby boom.”

Either way you’re definitely not part of the silent generation.

Gen X is before baby boomers

The Silent Generation: Born 1928-1945 (74-91 years old)
Baby Boomers: Born 1946-1964 (55-73 years old)
Generation X: Born 1965-1980 (39-54 years old)
Millennials: Born 1981-1996 (23-38 years old)
Generation Z: Born 1997-2012 (7-22 years old)

I actually chose to wear makeup because it’s how I express creativity. I have pretty clear skin and my skin tone is even I like my face a lot without makeup but when I put on makeup (blue eye makeup reviews (https://fashionkit.net/eye-makeup-for-blue-eyes/)) it’s because I enjoy it and finds it to be a fun hobby!

Blates. :joker: They don't even try to be subtle about it.

"Gear." :laugh:

May as well address the thread question; on extremely rare occasions I'll do the smokey eyeliner look like Johnny Depp.

Morally I think makeup is fine and everything but you start to disrespect yourself when you cake on layer and layers to completely change your face. The best use of it IMO is subtle use to simply make your existing face "pop" a little bit.
