Make-Up is Evil!
« on: June 04, 2008, 05:34:35 AM »
Okay, maybe just lip gloss.

I've always wondered why women think this stuff is somehow good for your lips. It doesn't have a moisturizer, it doesn't have any SPF level, it doesn't do anything but make them shiny. And now... it may attribute to cancer.

As a female, your life is meaningless without a mate.
As a female, a mate is unattainable without painting over your ugly bits (or making your pretty ones stand out enough to overshadow them).
A meaningful life ended by cancer is preferable to a meaningless one ended in senility and old age.

Cherubim is plural; Genesis 3:24 specifies one flaming sword. Presumably flaming swords were in short supply."

Hate make-up.

Greezee crap IMO.

The few women that it looks ok on don't need it.
The ones that need 'something' just end up looking like clowns.

Make-up is the personal decorative equivalent to a velvet painting of dogs playing cards.

chiming in to say make up, when worn correctly, shouldn't be seen or noticed at all.

Everyone else is over doing it and just need to take better care of their skin period. Make up will not fix what you're not willing fix with basic care and maintenance.

I just think it is funny how they start off the article by saying that lip gloss doesn't protect you from the sun's UV rays, and then end up explaining how skin cancer can spread to every organ in your body, eating away at you from the inside... You will get gross disfigurements protruding from every orifice of your no-longer-human-looking body. It is a dire and dreadful way to melt into a pile of moaning agony.

All this from lip gloss? Come on? Don't blame the gloss, blame the sun.

If this is true, then we need to equip our military with lip gloss so we can use it on the enemy and give them a horrible death sentence. Imagine if they added a weapon in your favourite video game called Lip Gloss Gun, or LG Grenade. Who needs bullets anyway? hehe.

Eh... It's another one of those sensionalized media reports, at which, I like to make fun.

The sun does other things to the delicate skin of your lips, other than cancer, but they like to play on the worse possible case scenario (so do I).

I see girls glopping it on until their lips look plastic saying "It makes then feel so smooth". That's because you can't feel them anymore.

Come on, jump on the bandwagon. It's way more fun that all that logical reasoning stuff (ignore the fact that I have better chances of getting struck by lightning than getting cancer from lip gloss). Make-up is evil!
