Physical Education

• Understanding the importance of skincare and makeup hygiene can connect to the overall wellness and self-care aspect of physical education.
• Exploring the physical demands on models and performers wearing makeup can lead to discussions about body image and self-expression, tying into physical and mental well-being.

Science

For continued development, encourage students to explore the historical and cultural aspects of makeup, its role in different societies, or the evolution of makeup trends through the ages. Students can also be motivated to experiment with creating their own makeup products using natural ingredients, learning about the chemistry involved and the potential societal and environmental benefits. Additionally, linking makeup with performance art or character development in drama or literature can provide a rich interdisciplinary experience.
