I got remembered of this song we learn in primary school..
Nobody likes me, everybody hates me,
Guess I'll go and eat some worms,
long, thin, slimy ones; short, fat, juicy ones,
Itsy, bitsy, fuzzy wuzzy worms.
Down goes the first one, down goes the second one,
Oh how they wiggle and squirm.
Up comes the first one, up comes the second one,
Oh how they wiggle and squirm.
Friends say making-up is a form of politeness to others, giving a "polished finish", it can be fun making-up, playing around with colours,and some say it's an art-a skill and a craft. Without foundation/powder, the feeling of stickiness and the oil produced by the glands/hormones may be a little uncomfortable. Oil blotter is not good for the face as more oil will be produced after using it. Women have worn make-up for centuries and as girls grow up to a lady, self-awareness is born. Society is partly why women put on make-up. Otherwise, based on each unique personality and character, some girls feel more confident by putting make-up, perfume, accessories and dress well (does not have to follow the fashion) to look good. It cannot be explained but felt solely by that individual. Just the same as why men put aftershave. Part of good grooming. To look beautiful is however not as important as the person you are, the inside... and learning and doing things to cultivate the soul. :) Most men look at other pretty and beautiful women (some are even attached or married) That is a reason why outward presentation is important...
First impression is important in the working life...especially in interviews. Inner presentation is even more important. Both go hand in hand. Botox injections and plastic surgery done for one's career, for example look at celebrities around.We can easily pick few out of 20 who does either one. If it's for a personal reason, it could be vanity or for men? -.- They have waste their money on these in exchange for other things that cannot be bought for money...

Make-up and basic grooming as a form of courtesy. Hmm... interesting viewpoint and one i definitely not considered before. However, how much is courtesy and how much is pleasing others? Does that mean, for example, I tell you I prefer you look botak that the next day you will shave your head for me as a sign of courtesy?
Does confidence come from the clothes you wear and makeup or is it fashion that produces confidence? Do women dress up because they feel confident or do they gain that confidence from dressing up? Im sure, the answer depends on the aforementioned woman. However, there is a striking difference. Confidence based on outer appearances, or on how other people think are often flitting and short-termed. People who rely on such confidence grow to be close-minded (since they perceive the world is only about how they look and how they dress), or easily depressed(imagine a scenario where people would chide a particular style or a mention of her putting on weight).
Of course there is the practical aspect in maintaining pleasant outward appearances. This pertains to careers that make a living out of their looks, i.e. actors and models, or the interview aspects of jobs as u hav mentioned. So... how much is too much in 'investing' into a career?
p.s. not 'most men' look at beautiful girls, but ALL men...
no, not all men, all STRAIGHT men HAHA!
haha best SH
