ICYMI (you probably didn't, but some people need a little reminding): women do their makeup for themselves [1], not for men. The latest person to weigh in on this topic is none other than Katy Perry [2], who spoke to People about her bold beauty looks — which she puts on just for herself, thank you very much.

"My makeup is an expression of who I am and who I'm trying to be, not a reflection of who I'm with," the CoverGirl spokeswoman [3] and American Idol judge told People [4]. But boldness comes with age, as the 33-year-old also spoke about how her idea of beauty has changed as she's matured.

"When I was younger, I'd wake up early to make sure I had a full face of 'natural look' first thing in the morning," she said. "That's a couple hours of sleep I'll never get back!" Girl, we feel you — I can personally attest to setting a 5 a.m. alarm to get ready for high school. (A habit to which I now say, "boy, bye").

From her cryptocurrency nails [5] to her striking blonde pixie cut [6], it's clear Katy's tastes are all her own. So glam shamers and makeup haters, kindly swish swish out of here.
