"Thus,if i have been properly understood, painting the face is not to be used with the vulgar, unknowable intention of imitating the fair face if nature, or competing with youth. It has moreover, been observed that artifice does not embellish ugliness, and can only sere beauty. Who would dare assign to art the sterile function of imitating nature?
Make up has no need of concealment, no need to avoid discovery; on the contrary, it can go in for display, if not with affectation, at least with a sort of ingenuousness."
C.B "In Praise of Make Up"
