Women 's Influence On Women

“Makeup is not a mask that covers up your beauty; it’s a weapon that helps you express who you are from the inside,” words by Michelle Phan. Makeup has become an art and has grown to become some men and women love while also becoming one of the top purchases in our consumer’s market. The process of makeup reveals women wants to enhance their natural beauty but also has some use of masking insecurities.

Accordingly Makeup can be used for many things. The ancient Egyptians used makeup made from oils and cream to help clean and protect their faces from the hot mild wind. Today we are using makeup for a totally different reason. Makeup isn’t to cover up what's underneath, but it can be a work of art. Most of women are so unhappy with their look and they want to change it. You want these sleepy under bags to disappear? You want to cover the freckles? No problem!! All thanks to makeup.

Makeup has been around for thousands of years. In places such as Egypt, woman used kohl to imitate what we now call eyeliner. In China people stained their nails with beeswax, gelatin, and eggs to represent social classes. Blood, flour, rice, and various plants such as mint leaves, were other ways people achieved the look of wearing makeup. Cosmetics can be used to clear up your skin, hide imperfections, and enhance the faces natural features. I started wearing makeup in fifth grade. I saw my mom using it and wanted to try too. I started with the basics and eventually developed a love for makeup. It is fun to go shopping for makeup and try out new products. Some of my favorite makeup brands are Too Faced, Benefit, and Maybelline. I use to wear makeup to school everyday, but now, to save time i just wear it on special occasions or to go out with my friends. Woman and men use makeup to express themselves and to feel more confident. In Ancient times both woman and men used “makeup”. Today, it is much more rare for men to use it. However, recently young men such as James Charles have made appearances in famous makeup magazines including

It is in human nature to procreate. However, in the years before hospitals and physicians, women were forced to give birth within the confines of their homes with the help of midwives. Midwives were people who had been through what the soon-to-be mother has been through. This changed when midwives gave way to physicians who spent their lives studying all the ins and outs of childbirth. Physicians were strictly men at the time, and it was recently that women became physicians as well. This caused much controversy because men did not know what it was like to be pregnant or to give birth so they could not relate to the women screaming and writhing in the hospital beds. Although both parties knew what to do in adverse situations, physicians were considered optimal because of their college degrees. Regardless, women now had a choice between the two. Early on, childbirth put the mother in danger, and there were no drugs to tranquilize or numb the pain of natural childbirth. After births began to move to the hospital, opiates were given to the patients to numb the pain, but this did not lower the death rate of both mothers and their newborns. It took many years after unnatural childbirth for mothers to be certain that they would not die due to childbirth. This is why mothers would have so many children during the earlier times of childbirth. Oftentimes, around half of the newborn babies would die as well as the mother herself. As long as the women have sufficient information about

From its beginning childbirth had been a thing between women. Childbirth as a social event created an impenetrable support system of women rooted in the common song between those who give birth. Before the medicalization of childbirth, women knew a more autonomous procedure. Why did men decide that childbirth needed them? Almost instinctually, I believe that men saw the power of a united female population and trembled in its wake. The same way that white men trembled in the eye of flourishing black and brown continents and islands and destroyed them for their own enrichment. Throughout my research, it has been interesting to see an inherently feminine space, that never made room for men, being taken over by male intervention; what I will

The British feminine ideal that was affiliated with the powerful Victorian middle-class, was the ideology of true womanhood and the “Woman Question”: the Angel in the House was a stereotype that would exemplify all ranks of Victorian women and also became a representation of oppressed women who were restrained under the dominance of the Victorian male. Previously, women were deemed as sexually ravenous, passive, and morally suspect both in their effects on men, and in their own behaviors and attitudes. Women were assigned a subordinate status in the predominant ideology because they inherently and illogically represented the flesh and its snares. By the nineteenth century, these perceptions of femininity were reconsidered with a positive

Women and girls are expected to be caring, gentle, sensitive, compassionate among other qualities. They are also expected to look a certain way and act a certain way, these are social constructs that are implemented on women and young girls. Women are typically expected to have thin bodies, no hair on their bodies other than their eyebrows and head, any other hair is seen as masculine and “unappealing” on women. They are expected to look natural, but wear makeup and to look a certain way. When a women and even more so now younger girls femininity is questioned when they do not fit this picture of how a female should be. Sometimes women are held up to a social ideal of femininity that may be unattainable by the average woman who does not have the resources, or who do not want to take part in these ideals and their femininity can be questioned by others, affecting women mental health. Do these unrealistic expectations of women and girls in american society hurt them more than benefit them, when they are expected to look presentable, have a good job, and take care of their families and homes. These unrealistic expectations are hindering to women and girls, low self esteems, confidence, and feeling as if their voice does not make a difference. Women and young girls face social stigmas that men may never face, yet they are implicated by them to control and maintain their power over women and girls.

“Makeup has been used to enhance the beauty of both men and women for over thousand years. It its through teaching others how to apply makeup, we can strive to help others feel comfortable and confident in their own skin. Wearing makeup help embrace our natural features and may also help express the ideas in a creative way like art.”

Every woman has their own preference on what kind of make up to wear and how to wear it. Lucky for me, I can get away with not wearing any makeup and still being beautiful, but I enjoy wearing makeup ever once in a blue moon. Over 50% of woman wear makeup on a daily basis, which boost the confidence of many. Even though, I like applying and wearing this beauty ware, it brings a few difficulties for me. Three reasons I don't wear make up often is the time consumption, lack of beauty knowledge and taking it all off my dainty face.

Makeup only used to be for men and women to enhance their beauty. Now makeup is still used for that very same reason but it’s for themselves, because they aren’t trying to impress anyone but themselves. From 3000 B.C. men wore wigs and makeup to make them more eye catching. All women would use makeup to make themselves prettier and so did men. The egyptians were the first people to create cosmetics. They wore it for special occasions like festivals or celebrations. They also would put themselves at risk because of the things they were putting on there face to make them look more beautiful. Things like: using burnt matches for eyeliner, they would use berries for their lip stains, they would try to make their face paler (because it was deemed more beautiful that way) with leeches, arsenic, mercury and lead (Gardner). They didn’t have to do that though because Disney

This whole article alone touches on the fact that women are seen as less than man, but are also comparable to a new family dog, in the sense that they are disposable – if they cannot do the tasks that the husband requires or even work he has the right deemed by not only the women, but also the culture to either: hit, divorce/leave or remarry, just like a family selling, abandoning or hitting a dog for it’s bad behavior. Not only /does/ the ability a woman has to satisfy her husband play a role in their relationship, but also her social role in (rural) Bangladesh. The social dichotomies in Bangladesh afford men positions of power above the women in their households and their communities; this creates an insecurity for women.

The role of women has always been an issue in all religion cultures from primitive era to now, they have been targeting for religion purposes or socials purposes. They always get pointed out for their values, self-respect, rights. Now it comes to the point that why do women always struggle for themselves? Is it religiously? Women have been treating as inoffensive in every cultures by plea of religion or God. The reason that is creating this situation over decades which is a narrow mentality among people, some kind of cultural belief that they have been upbringing in themselves that women are born to serve men or society and they blame religion for that, which is totally wrong. If we look at the world’s great religions like Judaism, Christianity and Islam, the religions have guided in detail about women’s right. For example, in Islam there is no restriction in Islamic law that says a woman can not work or have her own property, the definition of an Islamic society can only define if there is a female nurse, doctor, teacher and physician; also it is tilted more towards women when it comes to financial, economic rights. Women have their full rights on their property even the father has to raise them in equal as his son. Prophet Mohammad (peace and blessing be upon him) said in hadith, “it is only the generous in character who is good to women and only the evil one who insults them,” he also said in another hadith, “who has two daughters and did not bury them, did not insult

Beauty is defined differently through each person’s eyes, so to find the ideal description of what beauty is can be difficult. It gets a little tricky when society can ridicule an individual for wearing too much makeup or not enough. In the cosmetic industry, it can be very broad and diverse but one thing you can narrow it down to is either the consumer like to be natural or do a full on make over. Some of the factors that may contribute to whether a person like make-up or not may be because of personal reasons, or their knowledge about cosmetics, or they want to show off their individuality. Ever since 10,000 BC, people have been using cosmetics—albeit for different reasons and in different forms—making it one of the more defining characteristics of our species (Enjoy The Moment Rituals, n.d.)

Women use makeup and cosmetic products to change and enhance their appearance. They apply makeup to make themselves look prettier, younger, or to cover up imperfections. Some women choose not to wear makeup, but a study in the newsletter, Marketing to Women: Addressing Women and Women 's Sensibilities found that “seven in ten women wear makeup in America” (6). It is common for women to wear makeup every day, even if it is just a stroke of eyeliner or a splash of eye shadow. American society stresses the idea that makeup makes a woman more beautiful, and a woman who does not wear it is not beautiful. This idea is instilled at a young age and continues throughout a woman’s life. Cosmetics and beauty products are essential to many women. They will not go to work, school, or even a quick trip to the grocery store without applying some type of cosmetic. This shows how America holds expectations that women look feminine, young, and beautiful through the magic of makeup.
