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
Istijlal 8 Asma 183 B.E.
And we ask Him (exalted is He) to make thee a helper unto His religion and a regarder of His justice, that thou mayest rule over [His] servants as thou rulest over those of thy kindred, and mayest choose for them what thou wouldest choose for thyself.
‘Abdu’l-Bahá – A Traveller's Narrative, p. 82
