    I hadn’t heard all of that. I don’t wear it because it’s pointless. I don’t think there’s any deep reason for wearing makeup or not wearing it.

    I don’t wear makeup because I have good skin and a natural glow. I only wear lip gloss and sometimes if I’m going out I will wear mascara and eyeliner but that about it

    If you were truly beautiful, why would any female wear makeup.

    It’s like covering a book’s cover and expecting to recite what was said on the front cover.

    I wear makeup because I like to. I think I’m beautiful & that makeup only enhances my natural beauty, I’m not doing so to cover up my “ugliness”. Plenty of black women I know wear makeup.

    No, makeup is made for women…not just WHITE women, all kinds of women. I know plenty of Black women who wear makeup…just not foundation b/c the Black girls/women i know have good skin that they don’t need it. I wear makeup and i’m Hispanic.
