Make Up Games: Boys Wearing Make Up


Should boys wear make-up? It’s up to the boy, but if you have friends that think it would be fun to try out some mascara and eyeliner to make a gothic or creepy Halloween look, you can certainly help.

Boy Makeup
Some boys wear make up all the time just like girls. These are boys who are looking for a dramatic rock star look or boys who happen to prefer the oil free glow of a fresh face, in other words, the boys are models or want to become models. Most boys would never food with makeup unless their girlfriend pushed them to try it.

If you’re going to put make up on a boy, start with three basics – eyeliner, mascara and maybe chapstick. Boys don’t usually wear base or powder as these are too much like “girly” make-up items to use, but they might be willing to ring their eyes in liner to get that intense brooding punk look.

Help your guy apply black eyeliner around his eyes staying inside the lash line. Boys should probably line the whole eye – not just the top of the eye as girls do. Think of the boy makeup more like theater makeup than “normal.” Finish off the lined eyes with mascara and a bit of chapstick and your guy is good to go – until he gets tired of the game and washes it all off again.
