Why do women wear mascara that makes it look like they just woke up and have the flu... in fact, why do women use mascara at all. Then again I kinda find most makeup extremely unattractive so I am probably more bias than most.

@freemo "Aesthetic adornment is a cultural universal and mascara can be documented in ancient Egypt. Records from around 4000 BC refer to a substance called kohl that was used to darken eyelashes, eyelids, and eyebrows.[7] Kohl was used to mask the eyes, believed to ward off evil spirits and protect the soul, by both men and women."
