During the Victorian Age, in Britain, wearing visible makeup was associated with low morals and rouge lost a bit of its popularity for some time due to the fact that it was believed to be used only by prostitutes.
Throughout the years people have tried to ban makeup several times due to religious beliefs or morals. People thought that women were fooling men by wearing makeup.
