Greetings @Steemit friends, today I want to tell you an anecdote which I had the opportunity to experience or live with my cousin Milagros 10 years ago, in particular we from very small we liked to play that we were "professional make-up artists" and tell me Which girl since she was born, grows and develops does not like this type of games? Well my cousin and this person who writes today @ lanena were part of that group of playful fantasy girls where they were only attracted to those games of big girls.
Although our mothers did not have how to buy us those makeup cases for girls that are still used today, we never left that little ME (inside-inside) that made us playful and extroverted wanting to achieve with this game reality the final purpose that was always make up or make up to others learn even more of what little we as a girl could understand.
The truth is that we were approached by our aunt, my cousin Milagros, one day we played as always "make-up artists" to scold us, because she saw us crushing (until she made dust or bits) or crushing other rocks (mineral) with a rock. of colors like: orange, blue, green, among other colors making them and at the same time using it as makeup; Well, let's say that my aunt did not like the idea of us making up our eyes with that rock dust, since it could cause us some allergy to damage is our skin.
Since then I am curious to know and investigate Where does makeup come from and who make it possible for the whole world to enjoy these beauty cosmetics today? We used to use that powder because we saw that it painted our eyes the same way or better than the cosmetics (eye shadows) of our mothers and the few makeups that they bought us.
Every thing that happens in this world has its background to reach its goal or final product, today I am 22 years old and I recognize that I was always struck by the topics that had or has to do with the "Makeup and where does it come from? ", so I took the time to study, research and learn more to share this post called" The dark side of beauty (THE MAKEUP) "; It may be that there is a lot of information related to this topic but in particular I want to write what I have been able to learn by reading, we know that we are in a social network which seeks original, good and above all own contents that help contribute or contribute something of benefit, satisfactory and novel for anyone who reads these contents which are for those who currently integrate or are part of this great community called Steemit.com.
Many times we do not know the origin and what is behind each beauty cosmetics we use daily, but the important thing is to know and be able to inform ourselves about it and then make a conscious choice of what we as human beings sometimes do or provoke others as it is the damage to others, many times without ourselves knowing it or without having any minima fault of what is happening.
What are make-ups?
"The definition of Makeup affirms that it is the practice of adorning or embellishing the skin of the face and other parts of the body, in the search of good appearance. Through techniques such as Colorimetry and then Claroscuro, imperfections are corrected or disguised and the best areas are highlighted. Throughout history, in order to look good and especially when looking for a partner, the first powders were essential elements. An example of this is the following painting by Francisco Goya "El Quitasol". Made in the year 1777. This oil measuring 104 cm x 152 cm and is located in the Museo del Prado, Madrid, Spain. There is a woman with very white skin and her sunshade, sunburned. Women of high society, began to show their skins clear, marking a lifestyle, beauty, constantly differentiating.
Undoubtedly one of the great milestones in the career of Makeup. Trending, Status and LifeStyle.
According to:: Article by Silvina Kanowsky for LMC
Makeup is an art that has been perfected over time. The goal of any makeup is to be more favored than with a washed face. Observe first the parts of the face that must be corrected and then those that you want to highlight.
Do you know where your makeup comes from?
According to: Source
You could stop shining as soon as you know it, to make your cosmetics shine, the L'OREAL brands and this Lauder use a mineral called MICA. 60% of the world deposits are in Jharkhand, in the INDIA country where approximately 20 thousand children work in illegally mines no matter that they are only 5 years old, state companies produced the mineral but since Jharkhand banned their production the mafias seized all the mining and to "avoid conflicts" the government ignores it while the work Children and the terrible working conditions end with the lives of thousands of children and men who inhale mica dust causing lung cancer, silicosis, tuberculosis and asthma.
"We know they use MINERAL NICA in the powder and lipstick make women look prettier but look what it does to us, the diseases we have to live with for all that."

I do not want to say that with this you do not use make-up, but if you think for a moment that thanks to the work of these children today your image or appearance can change and look a little cuter.
.- Reflection.
That the things that you obtain are by your means or by a gift, you have to value them, take care of them and love them since you will always see or there are people behind all this and that made it possible for you today to obtain or see as a final product what today today you have in your hands.
No matter how small the work, dedication and dedication that each of the people make, so that we can always obtain all the novelty that we have today, it will be something new and a great contribution for all humanity or the whole world.
