Men have stepped into the light and are proudly claiming their right to enhance their attractiveness publically. High-end cosmetic companies are grabbing their share of this global, billion dollar industry. Chanel, Sephora, Tom Ford, Fenty X, and many others are reaching out to their newest customer base by encouraging men to wear makeup if they choose to. Men are selective and are shopping for the best men’s makeup products.

Science of Why We Wear Makeup

In order to honestly answer the question of why men wear makeup, we should understand why women wear makeup. Research suggests that the use of cosmetics has far less to do with appearance for the sake of beauty alone. The growth of women’s makeup has a much deeper psychological reason. One study performed by Psychological Today explains that women wear makeup to present themselves as a young woman who is right for reproduction. The entire makeup scene when it is broken down to the facts, allows women to look sexually attractive or at least ready.

Beginner kit for guys

Unlike ladies, most men do not start collecting makeup as a child and by the time they are old enough to wear it well they have a selection. As you get accustomed to products, you will find your favorites. Here we will help you put together your beginner kit. Below, we will go into more detail. In the beginning, your goal is to enhance your natural attractiveness. Your basic kit should have items that look invisible. Women have a saying, it takes a lot of skill to put on makeup for 30 minutes and look like you have nothing on.

  • Primer
    • Primer smoothes the skin and prepares it for smooth makeup application.
  • BB (Blemish Balm) and CC (Color Correcting) Creams
    • The names explain why they are used
  • Foundation
    • Some men want the light BB cream instead of foundation. This is good for day. But, you may want more coverage at times.
  • Concealer
    • This is used to cover dark circles under the eyes or spots that need to be covered
  • Blotting Sheets
    • Women use translucent powder to set the creams and foundations. Men tend to use blotting sheets to leave the creams in place but to remove excess oil or shine.
  • Lip Balm
    • Clear balm works as well as natural color works. Hint: go for a matte finish instead of shiny lip balm.
  • Brow Gel
    • Men tend to have thicker and fuller eyebrows than women. Brow gel allows you to have a clean and styled look

Why we wear, what we wear

Concealer, foundation and blush

Concealer and foundation cover imperfections of the skin, giving the face a healthy look. A hint of blush adds to the glow. Some men favor the use of bronzer instead of the blush. They use bronzer to give their cheekbones and chin a strong shape and chiseled look.

Eyes

When a child is young, they have larger eyes that stand out. As the child ages, their face balances itself. A young adult will still have eyes that are prominent, Enhancing the eyes gives the illusion of a younger person.

Lips

Like the eyes, children have plumper and more colorful lips than an older person. The lips are considered to be one of the most sexy features. People are attracted to plumper lips and red lip color attracts sexual partners more than any other feature. Red lips are thought of as a sex organ and the only sex organ that is flaunted for everyone to see.

These are the primary reasons why women wear makeup. Men who always wore a bit of makeup, but not so much that it was noticed, are now pushing the envelope and wearing it proudly. Why? For the same reasons women do.

Men want to wear concealer to cover dark circles, scars, and discoloration. They want to look young and sexy without worrying about acne getting in the way.

Men are wearing certain eye makeup. They want to look younger, but they also want to enhance the sexy feeling that you get when a handsome man locks eyes with a sexual partner.

Men are not as open with lipstick when they are out in public. As a rule they wear lip balm, with a natural hue. Fresh skin, deep and mysterious eyes, and plump lips make a man look younger, full of vitality, and sexy to potential partners.

Be Your Best

Today men and women wear makeup. In modern society we are less primal. While our natural instincts may draw us to a person, we are controlled by our mental abilities. We choose to be at our best. We choose to highlight our best features and diminish our flaws.

Men in every walk of life are standing up and speaking out. They are not wearing makeup because someone says it’s okay. They are wearing makeup because it is okay. It just is.
