Right, but worn by men and women alike. Makeup today is targeted at women and filled with harmful chemicals that close up the pores on your skin, cause greasy spotty skin that cracks with time and make makeup a necessity not a choice.
In fact in the victorian era it was widely regarded by both sexes to be Vulgar, primarily associated with sex workers.
It is a very recent thing that has pushed for marketing it at women specifically. Within Last 100 years or so. Especially post ww2.
