should any men wear speedos?
I actually rarely wear make-up and usually only wear a bit of concealer. The main reason I don't wear it often is that it blocks your pores and its worse if you are being particularly active. Since I am usually running round with the kids I don't bother but I recently had a week off and wanted to look pretty.
God sees beyond the outside though so I don't think He minds if you wear make-up. He is much more concerned with what's going on inside.

Unfortunately, that type of argumentation "he's much more concerned with what's on the inside than the outside, therefor makeup", can be used to justify a lot of things.
he's much more concerned with what's on the inside than the outside, therefor [substitute any external activity]
Also, I think scripture is pretty clear.
1 Peter 3:3
Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as braided hair and the wearing of gold jewelry and fine clothes.

I personally don't see how women wearing simple makeup could be sin or be harmful spiritually. I don't usually put makeup on but sometimes if my acne looks bad, I'll put on SOME makeup. But not much at all. But I don't see the point in wearing a whole boatload of makeup. God created you just fine. If you wanna wear a little makeup, dress yourself up a bit just for fun or if you're attending a wedding or going someplace nice, go ahead. But the using half a pencil of eyeliner and half a thing of mascara...no point to it.

I'm not interested in women who find their confidence and beauty in outward adornment, but rather the inner-beauty of submission to Christ.
1 Peter 3
3 Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes. 4 Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight. 5 For this is the way the holy women of the past who put their hope in God used to adorn themselves. They submitted themselves to their own husbands, 6 like Sarah, who obeyed Abraham and called him her lord. You are her daughters if you do what is right and do not give way to fear.
Indeed, he does.

it goes to show us,just how the world has influenced christ followers, and how little christ followers have influenced the world.
we want to be accepted by the world it seems ,so much....everywhere you look,it seems there is a worldly mentality,i wonder sometimes if christians truly or not aware.example(showing cleavege,tight clothing,buying material things to make you feel better,dying the hair,i don't mean to be overbearing,but either we are in the world and not of it,or we are in the world and kind of-of it.i guess thats called being a baby on milk.its ok when you are a baby,crawling and everyone says thats so cute,but if you are grown and you are crawling,there is something wrong about that.
