| The other day I was sitting around and saw a picture poking fun at women who wear make up. It basically said along the lines that they want a man who is honest, yet they hide their true looks behind a mask called makeup. It got me thinking about how some women are really skilled with makeup, and how some look drastically different when they don't wear any. That brings me to my question, do you approve of makeup? Do you think women should wear makeup as a means to make themselves look and seem more appealing to others while men typically can't wear makeup, or wont? |
| Yeah they should if they want. Should men not gel their hair or shave or whatever? Or is that fake too? People shouldn't be shamed for wanting to look nice and if make up is the only way they can achieve that then let them cake it up. Wherever you heard that from sounds like some grade A feminist bullshit. |
depends on what kind of make up.  bad  good no one wants a clown as girlfriend |
 |
| I'm on the fence with it. I Don't care but at the same time I really dislike lipstick for some reason. |
 |
| I think women should be allowed to wear makeup. The media really pushes the idea that a woman should be beautiful and flawless, it's only natural that women would try to follow up with that expectation. I don't care if someone chooses to wear makeup or not, whatever makes them feel comfortable. I personally don't wear makeup, but I know my friends wear makeup to make them feel better about themselves, not for men to gawk at, and certainly not to fool them. |
 ▬▬▬▬▬✿♥✿▬▬▬▬▬ change of heart |
| You can never have too little makeup but you can definitely have too much. Go ahead ladies, use makeup, just use it sparingly and don't go overboard with it to the point where you look like a clown. |
 |
| There is nothing wrong with makeup, and people who claim otherwise are retarded. Makeup should ideally be used to accentuate and compliment your natural features, and at the same time hide imperfections. There are obviously girls who overdo it and cake their faces with so many layers of makeup that they become unrecognizable--too much of anything is rarely a good thing--but generally speaking, there is nothing wrong about wanting to look good, and it's certainly not dishonest. Should men stop using hair products and grooming themselves, too? I get the idea that these negative mindsets belong to butthurt men or these dumbass new age feminists who think that dying their armpit hair cyan is "fighting the powah/patriarchy." |
| I don't make a little bit of makeup to make like her eye look brighter and stuff but I don't wanna be able to rub it off easily too like if she has 2 inches of make up in her face. |
 |
| Only proper make up that's enough to keep your face away from dirt and sweat, not the ones that turn your face into ghastly, pale white monstrosity (The reason i rarely check cosplay). |
| The thing is if someone is wearing such a large amount of makeup to the point of it making them look really different, it should be quite easy to realise that they'd look pretty different without it. If you're that stupid to think that's how they 'naturally look' you deserve to be fooled. |
| It depends how much they wear and how they wear it. |

| Yes makeup is scary and you should avoid girls with makeup at all cost |
Stay in yesterday 時を止めて |
| Yes, I wear make up, it makes you feel good about yourself, just like what Vaginkle said. There's nothing wrong with it as long as you don't go overboard, it also depends on the occasion. |
   |
| I don't mind it on girls. Just a bit I suppose. Actually I do quite like mascara if it's done well, dark eyes look very sophisticated. And some light lip gloss can be nice too. |
Trance said: I'm a guy and I can imagine buttfucking another guy. I don't find the thought repulsive, and I can even imagine kissing another man. |
| I believe that everyone should want to look their best. Makeup helps hide flaws and enhance the beauty of a woman so I definitely approve. |
TheEntropy said: I believe that everyone should want to look their best. Makeup helps hide flaws and enhance the beauty of a woman so I definitely approve. Or in some cases like Yui Ogura, the makeup makes her look even more perfect. I approve of it even on men. |
 |
| lol the kind of guys who say shit like that are also usually the ones who see a picture of someone in natural makeup and think they aren't wearing any at all (and then proclaim it as their ideal, "makeupless" look). Their ideal is unrealistic, they are just too stupid to realize it. Natural makeup often take more product than something more obvious anyway. Basically what I'm trying to say is like no one actually prefers girls without makeup and if it makes someone feel better and be happier then shut the fuck up about it. |
| I think we all know what invention everyones still waiting on |
 |
| I think that women should be allowed 2 wear makeup if they choose to do so, although I am more attracted 2 natural beauty. |
| yes I hate makeup , I got catfished once because of makeup there was once this macedonian dude and he took a picture of himself with long hair and makeup and told me he was a female I was so shocked when I finally learnt the truth , I've always hated makeup since then |

| It doesn't matter if males approve of or disapprove of makeup. Females will continue to wear it regardless because it's not like we only wear it to gain male approval. Quite a few females wear it because they like the way it makes them look, and their main reason for wearing it is to make themselves feel happy. As for my personal makeup preferences, I prefer a light amount. I like to wear liquid eyeliner on my upper lash line, a light layer of eyeshadow on the corner of my lower lash line, a bit of powder on my nose, and either chapstick or clear lip gloss on my lips. I personally don't like the way lipstick or nail polish looks, in fact I really hate those cosmetics, and I'm not a very big fan of blush either. |
 |
| So I used to look down on girls that wore make up or got extensions or anything like that for not being naturally attractive (blame my mother for drilling that one into my head) But now that I'm older I've realized women wear make-up a lot of the times for themselves just because that's how they want to look that day. It's not even to appeal to men half the time. So now I believe women can do what they want, it's not hurting anybody. If you don't know what your girlfriend looks like without makeup on though that's weird. I still hate the lash thing though. Why glue hair to your eyes that's the strangest trend. But like I said it doesn't harm me any. |
| i could care less, unless they look like lady gaga |
| It depends how much they use. Some makeup can make a girl look a lot prettier while too much makeup is always a bad thing. zombie_pegasus said: I think the anime girl rule could work: if a girl uses makeup to make her skin more smooth (foundation or cover up) or to make her eyes look bigger (eyeliner and mascara), then it's fine. Lip stick/lip gloss and eyeshadow usually look like shit in anime and they only work well on a few girls in real life. |
  |
| fine by me. it can make people look really beautiful. |
| Approve of make up? Who the hell needs someone's approval to put on make up? Do you call your friends every morning before you eat breakfast to make sure it's okay? You must think pretty highly of yourself if you think someone needs your approval to do what they like with their own bodies. People need to realise they aren't as important as they might think they are. |

| Nothing wrong with makeup. Girls usually wear makeup for themselves. It gives them confidence and amplifies their attractive features, I approve. When I notice someone with makeup It makes me think that they care about how they present themselves and they take care of themselves in a way. |

| As weird as it may seem, even if girls know that guys don't find their makeup attractive it can still make them feel better. Female psychology is pretty weird. There are girls who wear certain clothes that make them "feel pretty" only when their boyfriend isn't around because he doesn't like those clothes. Some girls will wear makeup to actually be more attractive, but this isn't always the reason. I bet this whole concept is very different for lesbians. |

Well thats certainly true about peoples reactions making you feel good i mean. I usually slob around but feel nice when I dress up. Feels like people are nicer to you and they see you more. When you just throw on a hoodie your invisible but people really see you when you dress better they approach you and talk to you on level. Makes you feel good. This makes me want to be better presented when in public. I used to never take care of my image ( like now ) but I felt so much better when I did. |
|
| I don't have a problem with it. I personally don't really see the point in it, but that doesn't mean other people don't have reasons to wear it. No one does anything without a reason, after all. |
 |
| They can use whatever makeup however they want. If she feels better with it, than why not. Heck, why would You not allow them to? Why should she care that You see her as a monster from Amnesia: The Dark Descent if You are total stranger to her. But maybe OP wanted to ask "Do You find girls with makeup more attractive", who knows. |
| Maybe just a little bit if they absolutely have to. I don't dig chicks who cake their faces in makeup.. |
| People who say they prefer the "natural" look don't realize that what they're into is still a caked up face. If you're completely bare, people will think you're sick or lacking sleep. "Natural look" http://www.studios4u.co.uk/Slide-Make/large/Beauty-Makeover--76.jpg No makeup http://imagesmtv-a.akamaihd.net/uri/mgid:file:http:shared:mtv.com/news/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/marc-jacobs-no-makeup-jessica-stam.jpg?quality=0.85&format=jpg&width=480 Again, like what Usagi said, most females don't even wear it to get guys. It's just something that gives you better presentation daily. I still don't find the need to wear makeup but I do my eyebrows if I go out since it makes the entire look more neater. |
Shaheen- said: And they feel happy because it makes things easier with males -- or females if they're lesbian. Come on, it doesn't take much to get into the 'reasons'. There are plenty of different reasons why makeup can make someone feel happy. Being more successful with males can certainly be one reason, but there are plenty of other reasons that have nothing to do with males. Some like to use makeup as a form of art, some like to seek approval from their fellow females, some like to hide blemishes that may not even be noticeable simply because they become obsessive about said blemish, some like to enhance their better physical features so that they will notice the things they don't like about themselves less, etc. Self-satisfaction is a thing. |

Mildora said: this idk why but lipstick always disgusted me. i guess i don't see the reason why you would want to change the color of your lips.I'm on the fence with it. I Don't care but at the same time I really dislike lipstick for some reason. |
fairygood said: it can pull off a different feeling to your entire face. like bright red lips can make enhance your makeup and give focus on lips. darker shades can give you a sultry, darker look overall. also, one may not have pigmented lips in the first place so they want to accentuate their lips.i guess i don't see the reason why you would want to change the color of your lips. i personally don't like lipstick either (feels gross) but tinted lip balm is alright. |
Usagi said: some like to hide blemishes that may not even be noticeable simply because they become obsessive about said blemish, some like to enhance their better physical features so that they will notice the things they don't like about themselves less, etc Concealer is a god send, sometimes my nose likes to turn red like when its really hot out and its noticeable. Don't know what I'd do without it probably stay in. Luckily they make it in my colour, ghost. |
|
| As a guy, I don't have anything against it. To keep this reply simple though, I'll just say this: I prefer a girl who uses makeup to accentuate the features of her face instead of using it to remodel her face. (In my opinion, makeup shouldn't be used to hide who you are, but to do the exact opposite) |
 |
How is that in any way a "natural" look? |
|
| lol women are so ugly, unlike us men. They need to fake up their face to look pretty, lol. What do men do? Shave. Proof that men are superior. |
 |
| a lot of males would think that she's not wearing any makeup |
Mayuka said: a lot of males would think that she's not wearing any makeup No...no they wouldn't. Not unless they had recently suffered a severe blow to the head. |
