…what?
Yeah I’m gonna need an explanation for this one
Indian Moms apply ‘mascara’ (actually it is kohl) to baby’s eyes and a black dot on baby’s face to protect from evil eye.
Those who are curious. This how every Indian kid looks till the age of 3 approx. We ar given kajal, nazar tika and tabiz combo pack at birth.

In my country Christians mutilate the genitals of newly born males, but leave the appendix, give them a gun and out the door — goodluck!
If your baby doesn’t have one of these, they’re gonna get the evil eye and that’ll make them hot, cranky and sick.
Facts.
Thank god whatever evil spirits are doing this to babies are leaving my general area alone!
Imagine thinking that giving a dried testicle on beaded string to a baby is normal.
I think it’s actually a seed. Also there’s a picture of some lady, so, +2 against evil eye right there.

Bro when I was a kid I was so ugly other kids would invite me over to scare the evil spirits away.
No, but the Swedes store theirs in a box.
Thats Finland.
I’m sorry, what?
Religious makeup
@IsoSpandy in Romania not really, but when you baptize them the priests are like yeah, drown that shit right there!
My completely spitballed and made up take is that perhaps in indian media “newborns” are shown with makeup and jewelry?
Mind you I have done exactly zero research on this
Its eyeliner and evil spirits warding talismans.
So it is indeed makeup and jewelry.
