No, it should be applied minimally so you still look like a god damn human

I would be careful about telling people what they should look like. The societal pressures to look pretty is one thing, but ultimately it's their body and if they want to put a bunch of makeup on that's their right. Some people just do it because it's fun afterall. You'd also be surprised the amount of product and effort goes into a "natural" look.

Collectively though, society is not having fun. If you look at rates of depression among young people, particularly girls, the numbers have skyrocketed since the dawn of social media and a big part of that is anxiety over self-image.
