Personally do not wear the stuff often myself. Find it a bit demeaning or degrading actually unless it is put on lightly to where it looks natural
. No woman really should feel that make up is a means to make herself look presentable, let alone attractive to a man. Just as a man surely should not feel he should have to be pumped up on steroids or built nicely in terms of muscle tone to be found appealing. The inside is what truly matters. The heart in itself carries much more worth. Only a shame that the media tends to promote messages that indicate otherwise.
I have been fasting from make-up. I am fasting from makeup for 40 days. I haven't gone more than a few days without it since the sixth grade. I know God wanted to show me that my make-up is not the valuable thing about me, but I must confess it has been very difficult for me. I feel like I am very ugly without it, I am embarrassed and feel ashamed. I wish I had your wonderful attitude lost lamb. I would appreicate prayer, because God is working on my "self" esteem, that needs to turn into "Jesusteem"
but to answer your question Mr. Slayer... I wear make-up because I feel ugly without it. I know that is soooo wrong, because God worked hard to make me, and it's rude to say I don't like the job He did (murmuring) I am hoping at the end of this I have a godly, healthy (for lack of a better word) "self" Image, like Lostlamb does.
Love, Kelli
