Not debating whether or not makeup has been used.
Too many people commenting on this post are leading with
"well it's been done since the dawn of age" as their argument.

My question maybe I need to be more clear -
Does a 17yr old boy being a brand ambassador for a company
known exclusively as a company for women say anything to the
general public?
Will children see this and be swayed?





Definitely. It will turn all of the children gay. It is a sign of the End Times. It is the fall of western civilization. Are you happy now?

I also don't download child pornography but still
consider it an issue that affects us all.
Are you saying you're apathetic to it's impact either good for bad?

Is that how you really feel?
I'm not trying to illicit anything you don't actually feel.
This is an opinion piece.

You just compared a crime that takes advantage of minors to a private magazine choosing to put something on the cover you don't approve of? Really?

Another place where maybe I should have used emojis or something. It was sarcasm, I feel the opposite.

Yes. It says that we have seen and recognized the success of other ad campaigns, by other companies, and wish to emulate them.

Absolutely and probably not. They might get some different makeup ideas though.

I'm not sure how a teenaged model wearing makeup could possibly be viewed as "demoralizing" to our culture...that seems more than a little melodramatic. It's not as if crossdressing is some newly discovered trend. Men have been wearing makeup for hundreds of years in this country.

Transsexualism isn't new, either. And it is extremely common in the modeling, makeup art and salon industries. Some of the best makeup artists out there are men, and a large number of them are transgender. The only reason it even crosses the public radar is because someone makes it an issue...as if it is some alarming new development that somehow poses a threat to our society and way of life.

If a teenaged boy wants to model women's makeup, so what? Don't buy that brand of makeup if it's so offensive to delicate sensibilities. Change the channel if the commercials feel threatening and scary to watch.


There are a whole lot of actual issues facing this country, real problems that actually do pose a serious threat to our society and our continued way of life. Teenaged boys wearing eyeliner and lipstick are not one of those.

Not sure..does this qualify as hiring men only, or just proving that men even women better than women


men have taken over and won female fighting competitions, soon all sports, and next, all womens scholarships and other jobs. Just identify as a woman and voila...nudge them broads right out of their own gendered spaces.



Still for the identify as anything mindset, progressives?

If you consider information lame regardless of its medium than that's lame.
For future purposes where would you like me to link from that I can stand
on high horse with you?

So don't buy their magazine anymore. Oh wait, you are a guy and you probably don't buy it anyways right? Looks like this is a non-issue to you.



It's a make up brand, not a magazine. Just thought you might want to know.

Aside from that, I think it's a non-issue for everyone and I don't get why anyone would be bothered by it. It's just sensible marketing.

It's just common courtesy to post news from a news source. Youtube isn't a news source.,

They do in fact have a magazine. Though, true, the point of this will be commercials and print ads.

It's very clear that you don't understand marketing, beauty trends; the effect of social media on beauty trends; the effect of gay culture in women's beauty trends; or, the influence of men, both gay and straight, in the giant world of make up/skin care/hair care.

I knew it was the fall of Rome/Babylon/the USA when several years ago my daughter brought over a few friends and they were going out. One of the boys asked if he could use my straightener and hairspray. I shouldvr beaten him with bibles and chucked him out of my house, but I gave in to sick sick depravity and actually helped him do his hair. HE was fabulous. Oh yeah.. he isnt gay either. Just has a weird sense of looking good... like a lot of teens do.

But that kid for Covergirl looks dippy... still.

Thanks for the correction. I'm a guy and clearly don't buy their products so I forgot.

What's next, David Duke as Black Man of the Year by Time Magazine...?

There's much more than just "marketing" to this.

Step by step...

"Mommy my friends at school say it's wrong for boys to have ding dongs"

It's on it's way.

In a world where everything seems to be turning on it's side.
Where men are women and women are men and some men are 7yr old girls.
When this this stop?
Is this part of the politically correct inclusion for all?
Is this just shock and awe marketing?
Does this just set us closer to the demoralizing of our culture?

What are you thoughts on this new event from such an established brand?
Does it send the wrong message to girls and boys?
Does it send a message at all?

(I do not know how to embed but if you so please by all means)
For reference, several hundred years ago it was as normal for men to wear makeup as women.
