[post_page_title]Amish women generally don’t wear makeup[/post_page_title]
While not necessarily hygiene in the narrowest sense, grooming is a huge part of not only how we look but also how we feel. External appearance influences the way the world perceives us – and the Amish are all too aware of that. In fact, according to the Amish cosmetics use leads to vanity.
Amish women, therefore, wear neither makeup nor jewelry. The only exception is teen girls, who sometimes wear makeup during Rumspringa – but only because they’re not yet official members of the church. For the Amish, what counts is inner beauty, which stems from leading a Christian life.
