Hello, friends. I know this is a sensitive topic, and I don't want it to turn into something that anyone gets upset over. I'm looking for education, as I have been researching this, "but I still haven't found what I'm looking for." I randomly thought about why people use makeup, the past week, and after looking into it, I'm even more confused as to why Christians use it.
When researching the context the Bible uses it in, and what scientific research says about it, and also history, I'm wondering why it is so popular within Christianity. And I don't want to sound judgemental, as I imagine most people who use it aren't doing it with ill intentions.
But that raises another valid question, why shouldn't men wear it as well? If it is good for women to use, it seems men should be able to modify their looks as well.
I would be grateful for anyone who can help my understanding. Thanks!
