There’s a new social media trend that’s perfect for our age because it takes a stance and gives people an opportunity to compliment you.

The new trend is called The Power of Makeup. Women are posting selfies with makeup on just HALF their faces, and nothing on the other half.

We assumed it was to show how makeup isn’t necessary, and you’re beautiful without it, and blah blah blah. But, it’s actually the opposite.

The whole intention is to show that it’s cool to wear makeup if you want to, even if it’s more trendy these days to say you’re anti-makeup.

Which is kind of a funny cause, considering how self-righteous the Internet usually is.
