Riddle 3

Humble they are not
Extravagant and ostentatious 
Generous if fussy
Fragile and irresistible 
Exquisite, over the top
Such is their nature
Waxy and delicate is their complexion
Demanding and theatrical
They are not above artifice
To increase their appeal
Whatever their makeup
They can't be ignored
Basking in adoration 
Of hordes of humans
What are they? You've guessed it?
It's not about women
Who can be all of the above too,
If given the chance
So! What do you think?
