You hear all the time from women (mostly from those who only walk around wearing make-up and look like men without make-up) that they do not use make-up for others but only for themselves. But I just don't get it, why should you do makeup for yourself? Then why don't women wear makeup at home when watching Netflix or something on a rainy day? When, as a boy, I do my hair beautifully or dress it up, it's only for other people. Regardless of whether I want to look attractive to girls or just want to look well-groomed, the fact is I do it for other people who see me. Why do women just not want to admit that or maybe they don't lie but I still don't understand
I think there are some who just put on make-up for fun. Those are the ones who can really do it. It's like drawing, just on the face. And personally, I sometimes put on make-up when I'm sitting around at home on a rainy day because I just came up with the new glitter eyeshadow. Perhaps a holdover from childhood now that it is no longer appropriate to scribble on paper with glitter pens.
And sometimes I just don't feel like looking at my impressive shadows in the mirror…
A few do it to please men, many just for themselves because they feel more comfortable with it, and some also do it as a kind of hobby to try out new things and compare them.
Yes, they feel more comfortable because it makes them look better. But why do you think it's so great when you look better? Exactly because other people see you and perceive you differently. Otherwise you wouldn't put on make-up for the netflix as I said
Yes, then you are an exception. 99.9% of women do not put on make-up for watching Netflix and if they do use make-up that day, it is to practice and prepare (see what it looks like) for other days when they leave the house
How do you want to know? Just because you don't understand something doesn't have to mean that other people don't feel that way. I don't run around saying, "I'm straight, so everyone who isn't straight lies." It's just as stupid to say, "I only dress for other people, so everyone else does too." The reasoning doesn't make sense.
Well then I just don't get it
It is like that. I even have makeup (said glitter stuff) that I never wear when someone sees me because it just looks ridiculous and nobody would take me seriously anymore.
Some already put on make-up for themselves because they feel more comfortable with it, so they also have more self-confidence, which they can then of course carry outwards again, others start with because they are carried away by friends or other influences.
You may be right, sometimes you certainly do your makeup because you want to please someone else. Personally, I have never put on make-up, I'm all in all very satisfied with my natural look and I also stand by my flaws, which does not mean that I look like cabbage and turnips, I also pay attention to a well-groomed appearance, but for Personally, I don't have to resort to make-up to achieve this goal, nor would I do it for others, if only for myself.
Why should you put on make-up in your own four walls if you won't be seen anyway?
you still do it for yourself because you don't want to show yourself to others if you feel uncomfortable. It's about your own feelings. You don't notice how others feel about it.
or would you go out with greasy hair if it weren't for others? Hardly likely. You wouldn't feel comfortable doing it.
I find it hard to accuse women directly of lying. Just because you don't get it right 🤷🏽♀️
