Make-up
Regarding Bahá’í women using facial make-up: individuals are entirely free to do as they please in such purely personal matters. As Bahá’ís are enjoined to use moderation in all things, and to seek the Golden mean, the N.S.A. can, if it deems it necessary or advisable, counsel the believers to use moderation in this respect also.
- Shoghi Effendi, Dawn of a New Day, p. 192
Quote of the Day

In the absence of such guidance, Mr. ___ is free to make his own decisions in these matters.
