[17] Now at that time the group-of-six bhikkhus (bhikkhu) smeared their faces; they rubbed their faces; they powdered their faces; they marked their faces with realgar (manosilā); they applied coloring to the body; they applied coloring to the face; they applied coloring to both body and face. People complained, criticized, and spread it about, … "just like householders who enjoy sensual pleasures" … They reported this matter to the Blessed One. … "Bhikkhus, the face should not be smeared, the face should not be rubbed, the face should not be powdered, the face should not be marked with realgar; coloring of the body should not be applied, coloring of the face should not be applied, coloring of both body and face should not be applied. Whoever should do so commits an offense of wrong-doing (dukkaṭa)."
