Make-up For Men
Make-up that downplays facial features instead of accentuating them | |
I read somewhere that attractive women exhibit a lot of
contrast in their facial features and that attractive men
have low-contrast faces. (With all the misinformation on
the subject in various media, I took that piece of
information with a grain of salt, of course. It certainly
sounds plausible,
though.) Make-up for women typically
accentuates facial features by making the "background"
of
their skin whiter and the "foreground" of their lips, eyes,
and eyelashes more pronounced. Proposed is make-up
for
men. Properly applied, nobody should be able to tell it's
being worn. It would make the major features of the
man's
face LESS pronounced. The lipstick would be dull and
skin-
colored, for example. Fake axle grease applied in
random
spots and perhaps a scar or two would finish the look.
NOT like this

I believe the correct taxonomy is 'metrosexual'. |
|
|
a cream that looks likes facial designer stubble but softens the skin and has a pleasant aroma. |
|
|
Those Mitt Romney photos - is he promoting facial harmony? |
|
|
Never had much luck with cosmetics or stinkum personally, but whatever floats your boat. |
|
|
I think this is called a natural tan. Why buy something that mimics hard outdoor manual labor? |
|
|
*Fake* axle grease?!... mind you, the real deal's never worked for me. But maybe that was the 'eau de la transmission' aftershave. |
|
|
If softer faces are better then why were MEN in old movies
(pre 1960) shot in hard lighting to get as much facial
contrast as possible? |
|
|
"better looking" is entirely dependent upon what year it is. The worse something looks, the more likely it will look magnificent two years hence. |
|
|
The U.S. budget deficit ? |

I'm not falling for this. I'll use pit-stick. I'll scrape my stubble. Heck I'll even uni-brow tweaze, but gentlemen, the line must be drawn somewhere or we'll soon all succumb to insidiously nepharious subliminalties trying to convincing us that 'we're worth it'. |
|
|
We're not worth it... we're really not. |
