The beauty industry is one of the most popular and changing industries today. Wearing makeup is a way to express yourself regardless of whatever styles and trends you follow. In today's society there is often a double standard to makeup wearing. There are "rules" about who can wear makeup and how much makeup they should wear. People like to dictate just how others should wear makeup. While you shouldn't try to tell people how they should express themselves, hear are five things you definitely shouldn't say to them.

1. "You're wearing too much makeup."

Wearing a little or a lot of makeup is an individual, personal choice. The makeup look may not look good to you, but the wearer spend time and effort on it. They're proud and happy with their work!

2. "Why are you wearing makeup if you're....?"

You can fill in the blank with any kind of pronoun or noun. The point is, anyone and everyone can wear makeup. It is not up to you to judge. If you don't want to see someone's makeup, just look away.

3. "That look is... Interesting."

Okay, we know you don't mean this as a good thing. Just stop.

4. "That much makeup must be expensive."

Makeup caters to all different budgets. You can get good products for one dollar, or fifty dollars. You spend your money how you want and I'll do the same.

5. "You don't need makeup."

This one is an absolute no-go. I know I'm beautiful, with and without makeup. I'm confident enough to go without it, but I choose not to because it is a way to express myself. Makeup is a fun and beautiful art form.
