Makeup has changed quite a bit throughout the years. From the sharp, Instagram-worthy brows of 2016 (you know the ones) to the iconic Anastasia Beverly Hills palette you probably still haven't hit pan on, and the art of baking your under-eyes until they could withstand a heatwave, makeup has been through quite the glow-up. Trends come and go—cut creases, matte lips, glass skin—but one thing stays the same: the ritual.

Doing your makeup isn't just about looking good. Yeah, the end result is a perk, but the real magic happens in the process. It's the pre-game with your besties, setting up your mirror, laying out your brushes, and pouring a glass of wine. It's debating which playlist will set the vibe (which will probably include at least some Beyoncé and Rihanna) and hyping each other up while someone inevitably asks for help with their eyeliner wing. Makeup isn't just about concealing flaws or enhancing features. It's a true bonding experience most men will never understand.

  • Makeup isn’t just a hobby, it’s an investment. Shoutout to the OG YouTube girlies like Jeffree Star, NikkieTutorials, and Jaclyn Hill, who convinced us that yes, we absolutely need that $50 highlighter to glow like the sun. Fast forward to Sephora, where you’ve filled your basket with essentials (obviously) and approached checkout with delusional confidence. Then bam…the total flashes on the screen, and you suddenly owe your life savings, your firstborn child, and possibly a kidney for a fresh beat. But at least you’ll look flawless while eating ramen noodles for the next month.
