...Many mascaras promise elegant or seductive eyelashes, yet most companies vaguely explain the extra couple makeup accessories necessary or the application technique necessary to gain the desired effect – unintentionally false advertising. Most companies will argue the expectation the customer already knows how to apply mascara, others will simply apologize for the dissatisfaction of the product. It is often the customer who is making the best of an unsatisfactory product, but the companies adding the slightest bit of information can result in much improved results. CoverGirl’s Bombshell mascara in the LashBlast line becomes the example. The Bombshell mascara is promises to deliver “big, sexy bombshell lashes” (“Bombshell Volume By LashBlast Mascara”).

Drugstore make up seems to be the most advertised on television, and the two most advertised make up brand is Maybelline New York and Almay. Both of which are very popular and favorite brands of consumers, come up with so many different types of products for each feature of the women's face.

...How to Be “Beautiful” (or something of that nature) Almost every supermarket and drugstore in America has one section filled with lights, mirrors, bright colors, new music, and hundreds of options. This section is commonly referred to as the beauty section, or what I like to call “the money hole.” Makeup industries oftentimes advertise their products so well that women will go to any extreme to get their hands on what they feel is the fountain of youth in a bottle. Countless amounts of creams, blushes, lipsticks, and bronzers all give women the promise of looking better than they naturally do, when in actuality, many women have never heard the phrase “less is more.” Society has moved past that stage, and the phrase “use every product you can find” is more applicable. Here is how to look “beautiful” today; which means abiding by the new and so-called improved phrase. Before stepping foot into the beauty section, look in the mirror and analyze what exactly needs to be corrected, whether it be a toucan nose, bug eyes, or ghostly white skin. Be sure to base all decisions off of the views and opinions of others, rather than your own thoughts. There is a product for each and every flaw, so be sure to look for them all. If needed, ask the opinions of enemies – they are always a very reliable source. Once all flaws are found and the inevitable tears are shed, head to the closest beauty store. Upon arrival at the store, head straight to the beauty section and find an associate...

...COMM 10- Elements of Public Speaking Master Make-up Artistry (Informative Speech) Specific Purpose Statement: To inform my audience about the three major types of make-up needed to be a master make-up artist. Central Idea: High Fashion, Character and Prosthetic/Special effects make-up are all skills required in order to be considered a master make-up artist in the industry. Introduction When I was about 3 or 4, I remember watching my mom put on her make up and being completely fascinated by it. Well being the curious little kid that I was, I decided to be exactly like mommy and do what she did. Bad idea! I ended up in the emergency room because I had super glued by eyelashes together. Needless to say, my first experience with “make-up” was not what I’d call great. Since then though, I have grown to love make-up and so I started to wonder what makes someone a master of makeup. Body I. High fashion make-up is the foundation or rather the basics of all three make-up types. A. It’s used to identify a person’s skin type, bone structure, eyebrow and face shape. 1. Identifying all these factors into helping determine what products to use on an individual. B. Its application is solely for beauty purposes. 1. You mostly see this kind of make-up done in editorial spreads in magazines, on television, in films or on the runway. II.

...successfully, hiding their natural beauty as well. Since cosmetics give them confidence, they do not want to look at the health problem that it causes. And they are absolutely willing to spend a lot of their time applying makeup and a good portion of their money buying makeup. As a result, their grades become lower while they become addicted to cosmetics, and they feel anxious and uncomfortable to see themselves when they remove their masks. Despite the positive effect that makeup has on beauty, restraining from using cosmetics can help college girls attain a more successful college life. Media always has a huge effect on the way people think. In many fashion magazines, TV shows or advertisements, we can see most women wear makeup such as mascara, lipsticks, eye shadow, eye liners, and foundation. They tell us how they feel confident under the cosmetic condition. Eventually, they affect people’s perception of female’s beauty—if women want to show their attractiveness, they must wear makeup. Many college girls like fashion. Through the media, the images of those beautiful women plant an inaccurate message in college girls’ minds: cosmetics can make them as attractive as those models. Therefore, they intimate that women wear makeup in order to fit into the society’s ideal of beauty. However, many college girls put their lives at a risk while gaining this artificial beauty from wearing makeup. Many cosmetics are made of toxic chemicals that can cause some serious diseases such as...

Since the Research and Development does not have any age defying solution ready at the time, the younger women segment can be addressed with the already developed products. The company has already loyal customers in this segment and has introduced some foundation products before. The mature women segment is our ultimate target since it is this segment that uses more face products. While penetrating the younger women segment...
