sportygirl89 Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 Do you like a little, a lot, or none at all? I haven't dated in almost three years so I know with all these girls I'm around I'll have to put minimal make up on.

carhill Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 15 minute make up always worked good for me when I was married. ExW got tired of doing eye liner so had it tattooed on and she was pretty minimal except for more public stuff if going for a special look. That preference of mine ran pretty much through my entire relationship history.
SomeDude16 Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 eye liner and natural lipstick is enough for me 1
Author sportygirl89 Posted December 21, 2015 Author Posted December 21, 2015 I've recently become and addict to the It cosmetics brand at Ulta. They focus on making your skin look good (not focusing on your make up looking good--at least that's their motto). So far it's given me a more natural look and I love it. The fact they came up with airbrush type brushes for make up is really good!
lino Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 None necessary for me, I only get involved with girls I find naturally beautiful. Excessive make up, hair colouring, fake tits, fake tans, etc are disgusting to me. Told every girl I've ever been involved with to save her money and not put make up on for me. All have ignored it mostly because they were wearing it to impress other dudes. 5
LostOnes05 Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 I feel the same as lino. I'd rather a gf/wife not wear any makeup and still make my eyes bulge out like a cartoon character when I see her. Especially since that's the person you'll be waking up to. 2
TheArtist Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 Very little. I really like the natural style of make up, whatever that's called. Definitely not the stuff that leaves a face print in the drapery. Not that my test is to push a cushion against their face. Ahem, I'll leave it there. 1
Daisy-oliviaWentcher Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 probably a problem then if a guy says " hey I love you but do you mind wearing MORE make up? I don't think you have enough on" There are guys that like Kylie Jenner make up with big lips,heavy contouring and raccoon eyes. They just like it and prefer it. But the majority of men don't want to wake up to a girl and find she has a completely different face to the dolled up one the night before. It's funny, woman want to impress other woman with make up and clothes. Men just prefer clean teeth and lovely eyes. 2
Haydn Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 My Mum is never without a load of `Slap` No idea what she really looks like.... Individual taste i guess as regards to the OP question. 1
introverted1 Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 OP, I would turn the question around: how much makeup do you like to wear? Wear that amount and let the guys who like that look find you. I hate the feeling of makeup on my face. Occasionally I wear a bit of eye pencil but otherwise, my face is bare. There's been no shortage of men in my life, so I tend to think that there are guys out there for every look, including my minimalist one. I definitely don't think you have to wear makeup because there are other girls around. After all, you want to attract the guys who are attracted to the genuine you, right? Good luck! 3
d0nnivain Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 While I have never known a man who likes the caked on look all the time, like anything else it's a personal preference. Some men will like it, others won't. The better Q is what do you think about your own make-up routine on your own face? 1
AspenBaldwin Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 I've been meaning to get myself one of these: 2
Sunlight72 Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 I've only been attracted to & dated/married women who wear very minimal makeup, or none. I'm now 44. Current Super Hot Girlfriend wears no makeup.
MoreAmore Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 Most men I run into say no makeup, but when they point out women that are attractive, it's always women with A LOT of makeup in a way that's tough to apply. The "natural look" is actually one of the tougher ones to perfect. I think they really believe it, and just believe those girls are more attractive and brighter than the girls truly wearing none. I do not care, so I just don't wear makeup. At all. Almost ever... when I do wear makeup, it's mascara, lip gloss, and maybe eyeliner. I don't even own foundation or blush or any of that other stuff. I only own a single each of the former. If a guy doesn't like it, we can both agree I'm not the girl for him. It's not held me back. So, I'm not sure makeup is going to make a difference in finding a good guy or not - and that's whether you wear it or don't. Not wearing makeup isn't morally better, or worse, than wearing it. So, moral of the story: do what you like. 5
Erik30 Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 It's too much when I notice it, and the girl has that fake "plastic" look. Also, if the girl looks like a completely different person with make up on. So I would say I prefer very little, however I probably wouldn't be able to tell in some cases. What I think is natural, could actually have been a lot of work.
losangelena Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 With all due respect, I would take a man's answer to this question with a grain of salt, only because often times they think they like "no make up," when really the woman in question is at least wearing SOME. However, I agree with some of the others here. Make yourself up how YOU want to look. 7
hasaquestion Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 Men saying they like girls without makeup is kind of like how girls say they just want someone with a nice personality. Makeup exists for a reason. If you aren't dumb with it, it looks really good. Obviously you need to be attracted to a S/O without it for things to last. But that goes both ways. Guys aren't always in their best mode. 2
dobielover Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 Most women that men think isn't wearing makeup or very little makeup is absolutely wearing makeup, and often a good amount, she just knows how to apply it well. 2

This. ^^^ By the standards of this thread, I have always worn "a lot" of makeup. Foundation, contouring eyeshadows, eyeliner, mascara and whatever shade of lipstick looks best with my outfit. Thanks to my age, I've now added brow shadow. Despite what the majority in this thread are reporting, I have never had trouble attracting - and meeting - men. Not a one has asked me to tone it down after meeting me. Do you, OP. "If you build it, they will come." 1
wb1988 Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 I find all the "don't over do it" comments laughable, as if we're surrounded by girls that put too much makeup on. Personally I think the more the better. I'm really digging that contour trend thats picking up (the one that drag queens did in the 80's). Ladies, wearing no makeup is like not taking a shower. Please don't make yourself be seen without it.

"If you build it, they will come." If a guy says to tone it down then he's attempting the creepy white knight approach. If a girl tells you then she's trying to lower down the competition — when was the last time a gorgeous girl with makeup said to "tone it down"? It's always only the uglies.

Yeah I also noticed that. Every single time I've asked a girl if she was wearing makeup (because she looked good, but also make-up free) the answer was yes.
