Everything But The Weed

American women are finally starting to use  less makeup, but it doesn’t appear  to be helping their pocketbooks any.

During the recession, it is  chic to put off those bigger  purchases, and at the same time the smaller purchases seem to have taken on a new significance in people’s lives. Because its the ” only  thing” they get to buy, they want it to be quality. The beauty industry appears  to have no problems filling this pattern  .

Although sales of beauty supplies have fallent  in recent years, the price of these products has been steadily accelerating  . Even as consumers buy less product, the margins on these products have gone up, keeping the beauty companies feeling pretty.

But is $45 really worth it for lip gloss? $250 really worth it for a skin moisturizer? Someone forgot to check through discount beauty supplies.

The background news is that regardless of the number  or price of products being bought, the industry itself is based on a false  version of vanity. 

Pretend version of vanity? Isn’t it vanity itself? Not in my opinion.

To be vain is to love  how you look and to be overly  concerned with how you look. Well, when you put on makeup that covers up your natural skin, then I believe you are no longer yourself. You are now a cartoon, a false  notion of self that now must be cared for  or it will wash off  .

I guess not all beauty products fit in with my ideas, moisturizers and some few other products are meant to keep your skin in healthy condition, but even those are becoming less and less helpful to you.

As the price of these beauty products accelerates  more and more, it takes more work  from you before you are able to buy these products. You have a job to buy your beauty products, but you have to have beauty products to go to work. In other words, you are walking in circles.

My advice? Start being vain. Think about how your natural body looks and what you can do to  take care of that natural body, not cover it up. Or at least, buy discount beauty products to save yourself some work hours  . Love yourself, and save yourself time, energy, and labor!
