Makeup

To be told:

Makeup, the many shades and decorations,
That brings out beauty on all faces,
The eyes, the lips and the dark eyelashes,
All the ways beauty can be expressed.

From a blacker than night eyeliner,
To the sharpest cut of mascara,
A pop of color can be seen,
In the shimmery hues of everything.

A soft stroke of blush,
A simple rub of gloss,
Give a hint of gorgeousness,
As it is thrown into all the chaos.

From the lightest to the darkest of days,
The many shades of the world,
Makeup can be an accessory,
A great way to make a comment.

The way it brings something to life,
A beautiful thing to say,
It can bring beauty to all,
In so many different ways.

From a smoky eye to a bright highlight,
You can create a new look every night,
The art of defining your own style,
As crafted by the makeup we apply.

The art of redefining beauty,
The craft of experiencing yourself,
The many hues of makeup and shades,
They all make a brand new story to be told.

About the Creator

Dharu

Everything in life is writable about if you have the outgoing guts to do it, and the imagination to improvise. The worst enemy to creativity is self doubt.
