Option 1

 * Article title
 * Rouge (cosmetics)


 * Article Evaluation
 * I would like to add to the History section of Rouge, as it is very short and could use some more information. I think it would be interesting to share the history of the reasoning behind the use of blush and the reason why many women have used it for many generations.

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Highlighter (cosmetics)
 * Article Evaluation
 * I think this is a very general article about the use of highlighter but I think the article could definitely benefit from a history of highlighter and the use of it throughout the years. It states that the use of social media has been influential in the spread of awareness on it but it does not tell the reader anything about which celebrities promoted it and WHY it is such a makeup staple. For example, when looking at the page for contouring - Contouring there is a very detailed history on which celebrities spread awareness on this product. I will do the same for Highlighter.

Option 3

 * Article title
 * Kabuki brush
 * Article Evaluation
 * There is a red hyperlink (Kesho) that is very significant in telling the origin of the Kabuki brush and unfortunately the link does not work. In researching what exactly the Kesho is, I know now that it would be very helpful to Wikipedia readers to know what Kesho is and why it is important in the narrative of the Kabuki brush. I would like to add more inforamtion on the Kesho, giving a brief description etc.
