Make Up Shaming

I often hear things like "She wears too much make up!" and "Make up should be illegal, it's unfair and deceiving to men!" and "Girls who wear make up are fake." As an aspiring make up artist, (and a girl) these statements are obviously very offensive to me and make up wearers in general. Why does it bother people so much when another person wears make up? Have you ever considered that we do it for ourselves, that it is an art form and way to express ourselves, it's hella fun to apply, and getting dolled up just gives that extra boost of confidence? Its a great way to accentuate one's features and hide some minor flaws. I'm all for embracing natural beauty, and I think we all should, but kudos to that person who had the patience to wake up 2 hours early to look extra cute. And if men are so worried about being "deceived", why not go for the girl who is bare faced? At the end of the day, if you're truly in love with somebody you're going to fall in love with their soul and accept them for who they are in all aspects. I don't think people have the right to assume that we're trying to deceive them by putting on make up. Staying true to who you are on the inside is the most attractive thing a person can do no matter what the peanut gallery has to say. Besides, who is stupid enough to think that a girl is born with purple lids and winged black liner on them?
