Now that's a practical, legitimate reason to wear makeup, and I wouldn't fault anyone for it (or to cover, say, a large port-wine stain or something like that.) I don't have an issue with actors using it either. If it's literally your job to look good, makeup is a necessity. And of course there are moments when everyone feels it's important to look their best.

It's the colossal waste among people who don't actually need to wear it constantly, or who buy and/or use far more than they do need, that gets to me: time, money, packaging, plastic containers, ingredients (some harmless, some toxic, some environmentally costly,) all for the dubious purpose of looking pretty, which backfires as often as it succeeds. And for generating profit for cosmetic companies, which it accomplishes very well.

There are other hobbies and habits that can also be frivolous and wasteful, obviously, but for whatever reason this particular one just hits every single button I've got.
