I think that men should have to wear foundation, powder, eye shadow, eye liner, mascara, blush, and lip gloss. They should also have to wear ankle bracelets that tinkle when they walk.

LOL that is great CC1... I can just see it now... I was cursed with those naturally smoked eyelids and I never knew they were to be envied... I was at a conference once with a bunch of girls and they were telling me how lucky I was, and that is what people try to achieve w/eyeshadow... oh, well.. can't say that I like them exactly...cause I hate having to put coverup underneath the eyes to hide the smokiness on bottom... aka dark circles. I would much rather add the color than try to hide something.. lol I say go ahead....just use color and cut the hair if its what you want to do.

Jezebel put on her face and fixed her hair because she was having company.
Because it was Jezebel who did that does that make her actions evil or would any woman do that when she was about to receive a guest?

Also, because Jezebel looked out the window, is that action evil also?

Well, I made a special decree (just to be safe ya understand) that my wife is no longer allowed to look out windows, lest the wrath of Reckart comest down on her.

True, but it does appear the rest of the things listed are not being looked upon with favor:

Because the daughters of Zion are haughty, and walk with stretched forth necks and wanton eyes, walking and mincing as they go, and making a tinkling with their feet:

In your opinion waht is wanton eyes? some say painting them. i do know women have can influence a man with her eyes.

My view? Pretty simple.

What are you doing, you devastated one?
Why dress yourself in scarlet
and put on jewels of gold?
Why color your eyes with paint?
You adorn yourself in vain.
Your lovers despise you;
they seek your life. (Jer 4:30 NIV)

God was not saying that it was a sin for her (Israel) to beautify herself. He said she was doing it in vain, because even after she beaufified herself for her lovers (other nations and their gods), they still rejected her... and Israel would face the wrath, with no-one to help her. That is what that verse, and that chapter, is about.

Using vain adornments will not sway her lovers, I got that.

Here's how the ESV translates it:

Isaiah 3:16
The LORD said: Because the daughters of Zion are haughty and walk with outstretched necks, glancing wantonly with their eyes, mincing along as they go, tinkling with their feet,

Strong's sez:

wanton -
śâqar

A primitive root; to ogle, that is, blink coquettishly: - wanton.

Isaiah 3:16 (New International Version)

16 The LORD says,
"The women of Zion are haughty,
walking along with outstretched necks,
flirting with their eyes,
tripping along with mincing steps,
with ornaments jingling on their ankles.

Isaiah 3:16 (New American Standard Bible)

Judah's Women Denounced
16Moreover, the LORD said, "Because the (A)daughters of Zion are proud
And walk with heads held high and seductive eyes,
And go along with mincing steps
And tinkle the bangles on their feet,
