lol honestly i think its dumb.
Should I alter my face, pad my shirts to make me look like I have muscles. make myself not even look the same?'
I don't think its a sin but I do think its pointless and deceiving. The intentions of it though are questionable

Woman are beautiful without make up.
How would a girl like if a guy put on things to make his muscles look bigger and things to make his face look more clear and a ton of gel to make his hair look a way it never does?
If you think about it you might think it sounds funny but honestly. Some girls fabricate every section of there self to appear like something there not so they get specific attention. I really don't see any good coming from wearing a mask lol.
What do you think?

Hi,
Im not saying it should be banned but God made you the way that you look and why would you want to change it?
If God wanted you to wear makeup you would be born with it but I guess its like the clothes story, Eve and Adam were ashamed in front of God they had sinned and tried to hide away because they weren't wearing any clothes.

Not saying that because you wear makeup you have sinned but you trying to hide the image that God made

I think you're referring to those girls who wear too much makeup and spends so much time looking their selves at the mirror rather than reading books or watnot...

But it doesn't mean other girls (specifically Christian woman) try to fabricate/cover our TRUE PERSONALITIES just cuz WE wear make-up...

Making yourself presentable is not at all synonymous with hypocrisy...

well yes and just the phrase look presentable. Why don't you look presentable without it? Honestly all it really does is give confidence. Men and women are presentable without any fabrications. Since society makes make up such a big thing it makes every woman think she needs it to look halfway decent when its not true at all.

Makeup huh?! I dont wear it...at most ill wear mascara and eyeliner and maybe some chapstick (if that's even considered makeup lol). I enjoy looking at people in their natural state. Everybody looks sooo different and I like seeing that. and also, I always think about this one silly thing. I think that if a guy sees me with makeup for the very first time and thinks, "wow shes beautiful!" well then the next time that i dont have time to put on makeup and he sees me, he might be disappointed that i may not look as beautiful. shallow on the guy's part, yes and silly on my part, yes, but something ive always thought about haha! so better to be in ur natural state, i say ;)

hi Aya! hehe natawa ako hay naku talaga? kapagod ba magexplain?:D

Can we get over this please.

The original post was posted almost a year and a half ago, and I have explained myself several times within the thread; responses which later posters are clearly not bothering to read.

This is now becoming boring.
I wonder how Sharp feels that no one bothers his post:D
People listen! He is begging.:D

Banned? What do you mean with "banned"? I do not think it should be banned. The ladies, sho use it will help themselves otherways if make-up would be banned. I think each girl or lady Christian shoud be carful herself and think well, if it is good to use it or not. If the make-up is not too transparent and the woman does not really look like a menhunter, I believe it might be OK.

But - and that why it is so discutable - if there is a problem within make-up, it is in men s feeling about it. So, if you are a man, and you have a sister st church, who is using so much make-up and so transparent way of it, i think it would be good to warn her.

You know if any think this or that tradition or act of our own will make a difference, yes our lives our habits change with the newfound friendship to God the One God Alone Only found in His crucified Son But He WILL remind ANY of you that the prostitute with all her Make-up like the Thief on the cross will be the First at His Supper Table in Heaven for simply with maybe even a Dying breath I know what you did for me Jesus I love you!

Sharp doesn't beg...he orders, rants, raves, commands, instructs, decrees, signs into law, demands, imposes, lays down the law, puts his foot down, reads the riot act, and if that doesn't work, he REALLY gets pushy...but he does not beg.

I unfortunately do not possess natural beauty. I need the make-up to look presentable. Some women are naturally beautiful and do not need it, you are correct.

put it like this...if your a man and you feel the need to wear make up, chances are you really do need it...in which case you've probably got other issues that are of greater concern...
