Although male grooming remained popular for a time after, it faded into the background during the reign of Queen Victoria I. Whilst it is a possibility that the negative side effects of cosmetics led to a decline in their usage; it is undeniable that Royal persuasion acted as a major factor in their regression. Queen Victoria I declared that the use of cosmetics and makeup was vulgar and impolite. As a result of such, she asserted that only whores should wear makeup. Curiously male actors were also exempt from the rule and encouraged to perform in drag, as female actors were forbidden.
Additionally, during the reign of Queen Victoria I, The Church held much more power than it does within today’s society. Religious values unquestionably played a part in the decline of male cosmetic use, and may explain why men who wear makeup face ridicule – even within modern society. During the Victorian era makeup was considered an abomination and to be the work of The Devil.
Due to the stigma against men who use makeup during this period, the link between vanity and the feminine associations of homosexuality may have formed. The femininity of such may have besmirched the churches name therefore resulting in the ridicule of make-up wearing men.
From the reign of Queen Victoria I to present day, many societal factors may have influenced the use of cosmetics by men- for instance, the pressure to be masculine within a war driven and homophobic society. However, the recent proliferations of ‘metrosexual’ ideologies mean that men are taking more and more pride in their appearance. In a world where the importance of aesthetics is as prominent as it always has been, men have begun to use makeup again – reassured by a more accepting society. In addition to this, unisex androgynous models such as Andrej Pejic promote an approach to fashion that does not conform to gender stereotypes.
In a society that is ever evolving, gender roles become blurred and our outlook upon fashion becomes increasingly liberal- makeup included. Our brief journey into the history of male cosmetics has been an interesting one, however, I believe there are areas untouched and many more developments to be made in the future that will make our make up history more exciting than it has ever been before.

The history of makeup is quite ancient; women probably started wearing makeup around 4000 BCE in Ancient Egypt, and the use of various substances as cosmetics may be even older. Archaeological evidence clearly indicates that both women and men in Ancient Egypt wore makeup, using kohl sticks to blacken the eyes and copper to create rich green eyeshadow.
