quotations about makeup
I want to see you
Under the makeup
Let all the worry
Vanish away
I want to hold you
Like it's the first time
Like you were still mine
A-HA
"Under the Makeup"
Now you must wake up
All dreams must end
Take off your makeup
The party's over
It's all over
My friend
SHIRLEY BASSEY
"The Party's Over"
You can see all these girls leaving a party at the end of the night, and they look terrible because they were too out of it to reapply their makeup or even glance in a mirror. This is a huge mistake. People remember how you look when you leave as much as they remember how you looked when you arrived.
PARIS HILTON
Confessions of an Heiress
I must doubtless admit that the paleontologist's view that heavily made-up women are prone to hysteria is an extremely astute theory.
KOBO ABE
The Face of Another
When my makeup is done I look in the mirror and hope I always wear makeup. I hope I'm 70 and still popping on fluffy lashes and highlighter.

"I'm done being makeup shamed because I'm a guy", Cosmopolitan, November 3, 2017
I don't see makeup as a defense. I see it as a creative outlet. I am a woman who has my extreme vulnerable side and my baggage--and at times I feel extremely weak. And who's to say a little mascara doesn't make you feel more confident when you pop it on and look in the mirror? It helps, especially in my position, where I have people waiting down the street to take pictures of me so they can evaluate and criticize every little flaw on my face.
CHRISTINA AGUILERA

There are no rules and there should be no judgement on how you blend your highlighter, whether you wear lipstick and eyeshadow together or what colours you choose. Makeup is fun, it's creative and that means anything goes.

"Why this medic is over being makeup shamed", Cosmopolitan, November 1, 2017
I want a girl who will laugh for no one else
When I'm away she puts her makeup on the shelf
WEEZER
"No One Else"
All you are is a paper doll
Cardboard cutout
Just like all the rest of them
That don't know how to stand out
From that one-trick crowd
Oh you're just a paper doll, doll
Dressing up
Go put on your cheap makeup
AUBRIE SELLERS
"Paper Doll"
She don't wear makeup, only red lipstick (only red lipstick)
And she looks so fine, 'cuz she is so fine ('cuz she is so fine)

After a hard day
I need to wake up
After a hard day
After a hard day
It's time to wake up
I need a make-up
GORILLAZ
"The Sounder"
She never leaves the house
Without a royal blush
She slaps on the pancake
And it's never too much
Old Blue Eyes on the hi-fi
Now ain't that a scream
Max make-up for the
Beauty queen
GOLDEN EARRING

Wash your face before your faded make-up makes a mark
The mirror will watch over you
DAVID BOWIE
"The Mirror"
take a look at me,
tell them what you see.
just an ornament,
ready to decorate.
like a figure in a magazine,
position me to best suit your needs.
under microscope,
calculate and probe.
now delineate,
your image on to me.
it's alright.
perfect smile.
seamless style.
make-up on.
