An interpretation of makeup dreams

An interpretation of makeup dreams

This interpretation is from ""The Dream Interpretation Dictionary: Symbols, Signs, and Meanings" and is provided by J.M. DeBord aka "RadOwl". He is the author of several acclaimed books about dreaming, the host of The Dreams That Shape Us podcast, and is a moderator of r/Dreams, one of the largest dream sharing communities on the internet. Makeup covers, so applying makeup can be thought of as covering up something. It can mean you are hiding or concealing something about yourself, such as personal flaws. The heavier the makeup, the more you are trying to conceal—especially when makeup is used to cover skin flaws. See: Hiding, Skin Makeup is part of growing up for females, a rite of passage. Some females begin using makeup regularly at around puberty, so it marks a time of life when childhood is left behind. For a female around that age, dreaming about makeup can symbolize trying out new aspects of her persona as a female between childhood and adulthood. Then for the rest of her life, any rite of passage can be symbolized through makeup, especially the application of it. For example, a woman dreams about stealing makeup from a store and trying to hide in the dressing room, but the attendant won’t allow her to enter because she looks like a boy. The dream sums up the dreamer’s experience as a teenager when her mom forbade her from wearing makeup and she was made to feel that she couldn’t be like the other girls her age. Stealing makeup symbolizes the feeling that she has to hide the fact that she uses it, even though she’s an adult, and generally feeling uncomfortable wearing it. The associations branch out to include subjects such as loss of innocence, sex appeal, and cultural ideals of beauty and femininity. Many personal associations can come into play when you dream about putting on makeup, especially if you regularly wear it. For example, makeup is associated with feminine sophistication. The more sophisticated the makeup, the more sophisticated the woman. Some women compare among themselves and judge each other on how well they use makeup, so the symbolism of makeup can connect with subjects such as feeling judged by appearance and how a woman compares with other women or lives up to cultural ideals. Using too much makeup can symbolize compensating for perceived weaknesses. See also: Actors, Beauty, Compensation, Disguises, Dolls, Faces, Hiding, Imposters, Lips, Masks, Skin
