Make up does what?

I don’t care who wears makeup, but I was wondering if pimple cream counts? 

As a 'product for women'? I mean some of my straight classmates use it. I don't think there is as much stigma about personal hygiene products as there is for makeup products.

Just FYI, this is not true. Women's razors are designed for legs, so they have the blades spaced further apart, usually fewer blades, and tend to have a significantly larger moisture strip around one or both edges, because women tend to shave large smooth areas with thin, vellous hair, rather than small and irregularly shaped areas with coarse hair. That's why men's razors work better on the bikini area! (Beauty protip ) You might say men's razors give you more bang for your buck as they tend to have more blades, but they're certainly not designed the same.

Not that I disagree with your overall point.I just thought I'd dispel this misinterpretation of the very real problem that women get charged more for inferior yet pink products. 

i'm talking about men body shaving razors vs women body shaving razors but work

You guys don’t understand how business works I swear - it’s great to live in fantasy land where everyone loves everything but it’s simply the truth that more women buy makeup than men and to open up to a new market, you have to find a way to appeal to them.

No. I was just wondering if pinple concealer was considered a makeup product for any gender.

I thought you were saying pimple-curing stick. I think it is considered a makeup product.

Why not? If women can wear makeup I don’t see why men shouldn’t.

You can do whatever you want to do, but that doesn't mean the world will accept it. I mean, I'm pretty sure wearing make-up as a man will badly hurt your career if you wear make-up to your work/school. Nobody is gonna take you seriously.

And, I'm not saying that's a good thing, but it is the world we live in.

Very strange concept, and an odd way of tackling the gender issue. I would like to think that there is a very naive attempt to try and break down gender norms in there’s somewhere but I’m like:

I find this really stupid but it's the only way to make it more acceptable for men. It'll take a long time but it'll happen eventually.

This is wonderful.  It may not seem like a big deal - and it's not really tbh - but the world is slowly changing and that's always good.

@Kween

you should add this to the op 

South Korean actor Lee Dong Wook will be the face of the campaign.

this is the very first time that a Korean celebrity has been chosen to model for Chanel rather than act as a brand ambassador.

heres a promo pic:

I agree that makeup is a genderless concept considering I wear full glam all the time but I think this is a great step for the world in a different way. This isnt meant for gays who want that full glam look this is for men who care about self image and want the better looking skin and more defined brows without having to worry about looking "gay". 

I have noticed that more straight men are open to the light amounts of makeup to smooth out their skin and help with discoloration and that's exactly what this is. 

I think it's great
