What is makeup?

How Makeup Relates to Math

Makeup is a cosmetic that is used to make people look beautiful. It can include mascara, lip gloss, Chapstick, eye shadow, foundation, eye liner, and many more.

Mascara

To make makeup, you first have to measure how much of each ingredient is needed. Also, containers come in a variety of geometric shapes. The weight of containers also can be different from one product to another.

Mascara is applied to the eyelashes to make them thicker, darker and longer. There are different formulas for making mascara, and what is different in each one is the percentage of each ingredient. Long ago, mascara was made of 50% soap, and 50% black pigment. Now, different ratios are used, along with more than just two ingredients.

Eye Shadow

Eye shadow is applied to the eyelids and under the eyebrows. It comes in many colors and styles, and is used to add depth and dimension to the eyes. There is evidence that people used eye shadow as long as 12,000 years ago in Ancient Egypt.

Chapstick

Chapstick is a brand name for a waxy lip product that protects the lips. Sometimes it has sunscreen in it. It can be scented or unscented.Typically, the weight of a cylinder of Chapstick is .15oz. The product sometimes comes in a 3-pack, so the total weight for that package is .45 oz.

Makeup and Geometry

Lip gloss

Makeup relates to math because of geometry. People can have different kinds of shapes of faces. These geometric shapes can include a circle, triangle, square, or even oval. Makeup can be applied to these geometric shapes of faces to enhance beauty.

Lip gloss is used to protect lips and give them a shiny appearance. It can be purchased in many different shapes. This has to do with math because it comes in different solid shapes, such as a cylinder or a sphere. Also, lip gloss comes in different weights, each a decimal. A typical tube might weigh .15 oz, but a sphere shape might weigh .25 oz.
