Although makeup is considered to be mostly worn by females, these makeup-wearing males defy all traditions and slather on the beautifiers with pride. With the bevy of makeup looks smeared on male canvases, it's clear that guys are getting in touch with their feminine sides.
From bold lipstick looks to statement-making guyliner, these makeup-wearing males are challenging all of the females out there with their creativity. You might not even be able to tell if the makeup wearer in some of the shoots is a guy or a girl.
Take a look through this collection of makeup-wearing males and you might be surprised to find that guys can still look good, although unconventionally, even with some lipstick and eyeshadow on.
