Is Wearing Make Up Good or Bad?

And as Yinnie said, its fun. :'D

I saw a side photo of you recently without make up.

You have a nice tanned complexion..

I think the tired look around the eyes comes from not enough sleep, diet, not enough exercise and alcohol..

I went through a recent period of many late nights, to much alcohol, not enough exercise, and not enough sleep socialising over drinks nightly at my place.. It definitely makes you feel like shite in the mornings..

If I sleep well, eight hours, wake up, healthy brekkie, shower, good walk, and another walk in the evening, the next morning feels great..

I'm a male and have never worn make up and I think I never will, I see no point to do that. Now when it comes to girls, I like the natural look they get with no makeup, but I don't really mind if they wear it at all.

I am 41, and all male through and through.

I am very much part of the "natural look" generation, and having said that, i grew up with Gf's and a Mother that delighted in pastering themselves with the stuff.

My mother was a manager at CLINIQUE headquarters in Sydney, so she always had a huge stockpile in the top of the wardrobe, as well as other brands which other compnay consultatants would bareter with each other. My sister and her friends were always raiding Mum's bedroom wardrobe!

I always got a kiss on the cheek from Aunties which meant a huge impregnation of heavy pink or red lips.

It was always a turn off for me getting with a girl who was wearing lipstick as the taste was just to waxy.

It also annoyed me upon venturing out how I had to wait an extra hour for my partner/s to finish with their make up.

I am now involved with a partner is is a very naturally artistic type form Seoul, and I am happy to say that she is not into make up and having long wet kisses just make it all the merrier, even though I now have to contend with the tatse of Kim Chi!

My culture was definitely a macho man's one, the men were men, they were tough, and the women were delicate and beautiful creatures. Make up was definitely a women's thing.

Still, a guy that wears make up doesn't hurt my feelings, and all the best to him if that is what he likes.

Personally, I'm not a big fan of make-up. It makes me feel heavy and not myself.

At school, I see all these girls applying make-up or putting it on heavily. I just don't understand why they need to cover their faces up. I think it wastes a lot of time and energy; no offense to the people who do wear make-up.

I don't think make up is a bad thing by any means. I don't wear it myself though but that's because I can't stand having anything on my face. It just feels gross to me. I do however, think that it can look really good on some people be them male or female. There can definitely be too much make up though. When people wear too much I think it does the opposite of what it's intended to do and just makes them look awful.

I think make up looks best when it's used to enhance ones features and not cover up everything in an attempt at pseudo plastic surgery. When people where so much make up that you suffer a big shock when they take it off then that's when I think it's too much. Plus, I think make up tends to look better when it's lighter. However, I do love the fun eye shadow colors and things that people do but only when it's down well and not by someone who clearly doesn't know what they're doing.

I don't know, girls will wear whatever they want. But it doesn't work for guys in general so it's a moot point to ask. Some celeb in costume or something like that, I wouldn't count that in the same league as what women wear everyday.

What does that mean? You think she's not wearing makeup?

[xyzone]

I'm saying it's at least undetermined. Nevermind because she looks good or whatever, but evidently is at least wearing eyelash stuff.

But on second thought, yes, that's right. Prove she isn't wearing it.

We seem to have a communication breakdown here, afterall, Josh is asking you the question.

By the way, what's the sheilas name in your animated sig photo?
