Pastor Enoch Adeboye, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), stated that women who wear makeup demonstrate a lack of faith in God’s perfect creation. During the RCCG ministers’ conference in Ogun State, Nigeria, Adeboye expressed his beliefs on the subject, suggesting that women who use makeup are attempting to improve upon God’s work.
Adeboye emphasized that humans are wonderfully and perfectly made by God, and each person is unique and special. He argued that trying to enhance one’s appearance through makeup is foolish, as it implies disbelief in God’s design.

He said, “When you marry, you cut your coat according to your clothes. Some of you want to be like the people of the world. I can’t even imagine some of the things I see now. It wasn’t so in the beginning.
“People spend hundreds of thousands of naira on ‘shoot out’ (photo shoot). And then, on the day of the wedding, the girl put on all manner of decorations. Those who do make-up are those who do not believe God did a good job.
“When God created you, He did a great job, you are wonderful, perfectly made, and you cannot find any other fellow like you. You are special.
“When you begin to paint, and you think you can improve on what God has already done, you are a fool. You can never improve on what God has done.”
