If you're talking about western society, then most women put on make up to accentuate and/or hide certain features. Most women feel "prettier" after they have put on make up. On a recent TV talk show, there were some women who had the "make up bug" so badly, that they could not leave the house without it.
Women have been conditioned by society and their peers that "make up" is a necessity when in reality for MOST women, just a little bit is enough. Hey, I like heavy eye liner, solid foundation, thick eyelashes, lipstick and all that on women every once in a while, especially when we all go out clubbing.
But usually, most men prefer just a little bit of make up instead of a lot on women. But to answer your question, most women put it on because they it makes them feel prettier. And many women use it to hide skin blemishes, acne scars, and any other "perceived" imperfections.

I use makeup just to cover up my flaws and emphasize my attractive features. I know that guys don't seem to like the reality of makeup but the most attractive girls are those who wear at least a little bit. Most movie stars and women we consider among the most beautiful in the world don't look that great without makeup. Women are pale and have acne scars and uneven skin tone just like men do

To highlight our assets, makeup can really change the way a person looks, especially the eyes, if you learn how to accent the eyes, it makes a big difference.

We believe that makeup makes us look beautiful... it enhances our appearance and makes us feel beautiful when we have it on. That's what we like, feeling beautiful, and often makeup makes us feel that way

I wear it to enhance my appearance and feel complete. Makeup is what differentiates women from men (supposed to anyway). I feel sexier when I put it on too.
