Yeah, I know. Hard to find scripture against it, but my thoughts if not wrong then none of it's wrong. I question what is purpose of bright purple lipstick?? Hard not to come a conclusion it's to accent the lips and why would a lady want to do that?

But we're not discussing changing color, we're discussing what is alluring.

I guess they think it's pretty, the same way they think a bright scarf is pretty.

I personally don't care for lipstick, period.

Well, if bright purple lipstick ever actually comes into fashion, in some dark "Blade Runner" type future, then it wouldn't be wrong, or at least not look stupid.

To me this isn't a comparison between makeup and perfume but rather someone spending 10-15 minutes applying make up versus someone spending over an hour teasing every single strand of their hair into perfect shape in their might hair dos.. I could post countless pictures but you all know what I am talking about.

Re: Adornment!!

I don't know if I have brought this up before. But the Bible teaches that males are the ones naturally adorned. You know the lion with the mane, the peacock with the beautiful feathers, etc. Sooooooooo, men get busy with the makeup. Women it's a sin against nature to wear makeup.

You missed a word.

Males are the ones... naturally... adorned. No make up needed. Just buff up.

I brought this up earlier that it is odd that in all of nature the males are the adorned of the species and yet humans have turned that norm on its head.

Humans did, or God did? I think it was God's design that made women the fairer sex.
