The reason for this fear is men know that sooner or later they're going to see you without makeup! So if makeup is used to the point that it obscures who you really are then it's going to suck when we see the real you. I think makeup is cool when it's barely there, or if you're gonna go full-on goth or sk8ter grrl which for some reason I think is pretty hot (something about the excessive eyeliner?)


Nothing like waking up next to a hot girl that looks exactly the same as she did the night before because she didn't wear makeup.

i guess the funny thing is, i don't wear it very often, and never very much. so it was like being told it was scary because i might wear it.

inside us all is that beast we must keep tame...


nah you seem fine as far as all that goes. most guys would probably get a kick out of seeing you mad scientist your way through mixing powders and such.

Most guys i've been around prefer minimal makeup because yes, its scary when they look totally different without it.





Certain looks require certain amounts of makeup. But when you have enough foundation on to require more then one facecloth to get off, you should probably lay off.





And if you dont wear any, don't worry about it, most of the time, guys don't really notice unless its too much.

I love makeup. But i wear only enough to kind of enhance things. And I hate lipstick. It just doesn't feel good to me, and it always wears off too fast. But I dated this guy who REALLY likes girls to wear makeup, especially lipstick. It was kind of funny. My ex hated makeup.

I prefer minimal makeup. Lipstick is a plus. What I do not like is tomakeup all over my shirt or jacket. This usually happens when a girl has used a putty knife to apply the makeup.

I prefer no makeup at all, but if she really must wear makeup, only enough to make it look like she isn't wearing any. To be honest, when women wear a lot of makeup, it makes me wonder what she's trying to hide under all that stuff. Although I once had an English teacher who painted on her eyebrows. I didn't wonder what she was hiding under those. *shudders*

I want my match to look her best AND feel her best. If this requires some makeup then this is fine though the motto should be less is more. If it is obvious that you have makeup on then it is either too much or you are going to scare me when I wake up.

I wore makeup for New Years Eve. Can't remember the time prior to that. Had to change at work, so unfortunately couldn't hide from staff either.. Weird. everyone, including my date, had very nice things to say. which makes me wonder about what they think the other 99% of the time.


couldn't wait to wash that stuff off my face.

I don't know how guys deal with it. Some drunk woman kissed me once and all I could taste was the danged lipstick. Yuck!!


I take it she wasn't wearing 'cherry chapstick'?


Nothing so exotically tasty. It tasted like one's grandma's lipstick smelled. Synesthesia at its worst!

thats funny. when it comes to women, it isn't the taste of the lipstick that makes me wonder how men handle it.
