WHY WOMEN USE MAKE-UP

• WE DOT IT FOR OURSELVES- WOMEN PUT ON MAKEUP FOR THEMSELVES. IT MAKES THEM EXTRA CONFIDENT ABOUT THEMSELVES.

IT CORRECTS THINGS THAT WE CAN’T CORRECT OURSELVES

• IF YOU HAVE A PIMPLE ON YOUR NOSE, YOU WOULD PUT ON CONCEALER TO HIDE IT. OR IF YOU LOOK PALE YOU WOULD PUT ON SOME BLUSH. WOMEN PUT ON MAKEUP TO CONCEAL ANYTHING LIKE ZITS, BLOTCHINESS, AND BLACKHEADS.

IT MAKES THEM FEEL YOUNG AND BEAUTIFUL

• THEY WANT TO LOOK GOOD, THEY BELIEVE THAT THEY FEEL GOOD WITH IT ON, AND THEY DON’T WANT TO FEEL UGLY WITHOUT MAKEUP ON.
