Dude Makeup: It’s All The Rage
July 30, 2008 Posted in Buzz
First there was Guy Liner.
Now, we have Manscara.
Looks like makeup for the male species is making its mark and not going anywhere. I suppose we have Pete Wentz to thank for that. Perhaps all you dudes should go a little easy on him? I mean, he is totally doing you a service right now. And ladies…don’t hate on the Dude Makeup just yet; there are so many wonderful things that come from it!
1. Cover up those imperfections. The idea of your man wearing a little makeup is far superceded by the fact that you don’t have to be embarassed about his narsty skin anymore.
2. You can share! We are all looking for ways to save a little moolah these days, and this is a great one! You only have to pay for half of a mascara, and Lord knows how expensive that stuff can get.
3. He finally understands why you take so long to get ready. And he will be right there next to you slowly applying that Guy Liner.
4. He will appreciate just how much it takes for you to spruce up for him. Putting on makeup gets old (fast) and guys never understand just how much work it is. Give them a little to play around with and the will learn (fast) that it is not such a cakewalk.
5. Blackmail: Even if makeup for men is becoming more popular, there is a (large) chance your boy may not want his boys to know. But you know. And he knows you know. And he knows you could spill the beans if things don’t go your way. Mwahahahahaha.

If I'm right, that's one of the members of Panic (no exclamation mark) at the Disco. And as any of us who grew up in the late 70's/80's know… rockstars have no qualms about adopting feminine fineries.
Bowie. Jagger. Guns n Roses. Motley Crue. Ozzy Osbourne. Prince… I could go on forever.
And here we are, 20 years later, talking about this like it's some sort of new trend.
Both aristocrats and artists for centuries have worn makeup in some form or another. I doubt you'll see a frat boy or some other average joe checking himself out in his MAC compact so this really doesn't mean anything…

the weirdest part would obviously be WATCHING a guy put it on.
I would feel all kinds of odd. Esp if he's really good at it.
