Beautiful things, like a sunset or a piece of art, make us happy because they bring harmony, balance, and evoke positive emotions. Makeup works the same way—it has the power to highlight and enhance natural beauty, creating a sense of order and symmetry that pleases both the wearer and those around them. Whether it’s the perfect winged eyeliner or a glowing complexion, makeup can trigger a similar release of dopamine, giving us that little boost of confidence and joy.
Makeup isn’t just about appearance; it’s about how it makes us feel. It connects us to our creativity, allows us to express ourselves, and taps into that same appreciation for beauty we find in art or nature.
When you apply makeup, is it more about how you look or how it makes you feel?
