Was it a demonstration of theatrical technique for creating a character for a movie?
If it was supposed to be a screed against makeup and for "naturalness" it completely missed the mark: nobody puts layer upon layer of makeup on day after day without cleansing their face in between.

I'm guessing it's saying how much all that make-up a woman puts on over the course of the year looks, if done all in one shot.

Looked like make-up bukakke.

Ever. Women/ men are beautiful enough without that crap.
All it is, is a way to demean people. I'm so against makeup for women but now I do have to include men. Come on how much money wasted? How much time wasted? Be yourself.
I am male. My wife of forty years may put something on her face once or twice a year. I keep telling her it's just not right. Be yourself.

Beauty is a billon dollar industry, based on telling a person they just don't look good enough. "Use this and be more accepted, more revered, more successful."
Tell them poop on you, I am just right, my wrinkles are my sucess, my skin is ok, I don't need you, I'm beautiful without spending all that money to make YOU a sucess.

Hate me, cuss me, put me on ignore, flame me. I really don't care.

Makeup is one of the best ways that women are held down, put into second place, subjecgated, all for a false sense of beauty. Get real.

Don't forget to wash your face every day?

Makeup is bad because it looks really nasty if you never take it off?

A little is OK, a lot is pretty awful?

Horrible stuff, don't wear any of it? Ever, for any reason?

I'm just not sure what is being said, here.

I get the sense I'm being "preached at," though....and that never goes over well!
