Then God said, Let us make man in our image. Genesis 1:26. A beautiful woman
lacking modesty is like a beautiful god ring in a pigs nose. Proverbs 11:22
Your image is what the world sees. That includes how women wear cosmetics. It has an
impact on how people see you. It has been said from psychological studies that most people
form first impression within 15 seconds. The image you project is very important. (Grimes,
2003)
Cosmetic practices are unique to humans as no other species on the planet has a history
of bodily adornment and modification for the sake of modification. (Kligman, 1985; as stated by
Tyner, 2008)
If you think you can, you can. If you think you cant, youre right.

Self-Esteem refers to our feelings of self-worth and our liking or
disliking of ourselves. Research suggests that self-esteem is strongly related
to motivational process such as specific self-efficacy, self-set goals, and effort
as well as emotional processes, such as anxiety and regulating emotion. Selfesteem is positively related to job performance and learning. (Phillips &
Gully, 2011)
The majority of research on women and their self-esteem has
historically been related to how they feel about their body shape and size
(Trampe,
Siero,
&
Stapel,
2007).

Makeup is femininity made tangible. Makeup can mean a lot of
different things to a lot of different women. For many, makeup is a way to
invoke ones self (LaBelle, 1988). Using different products and colors, women
can use makeup to explore and portray their own individuality. According to
Beausoleil (1992), many women report having different makeup routines
depending on what they expect to do during the day. Women often engage in
specific appearance practices to distinguish between day and night looks,
basic looks and looks for special occasions, etc. (Beausoleil, 1992).
