Why do many women incist on wearing excessive makeup even though most guys preffer less makeup?

Question

Also, fyi, most guys prefer real breasts, even if they aren't that big.

Good point, most guys can't tell real breasts from fake, sometimes though there are bad jobs that are obvious and those times when you know that someone has because you knew them before you may think they looked better befoere.

Answer 1

some women "hide" behind their makeup. it also gets rid of blemishes. sometimes a little makeup wont get it all so they put more on to cover it up all the way. also some people dont know how to put it on light and just keep puting more on. if they messed up and didnt want to go back and fix it they would just apply until the problem was gone and then soon it became a habit to put on a lot. its hard to start wearing less after you caked it on for a long time.

Answer 2

This reminds me of an article I read in Cosmo. There were three pictures of women one wearing no makeup, one with a little, and one with full makeup. They asked a group of men to pick out which woman looked the best. Most of the men preferred the last picture with all the makeup and even went as far as to say that the first woman was unattractive. The pictures were all of the same woman with varying degrees of makeup. But I agree some women do wear too much makeup.

Answer 3

In my experience, most guys have no idea how much makeup a woman is wearing at any time.

The key to makeup is whether it is artfully applied. Guys don't seem to mind when women in the Victoria Secret fashion show or in magazines, or anywhere else in reality or quasi-reality are wearing a lot of makeup. They only mind when there is a lot of makeup that looks bad. But I think you would get the same negative opinion with a woman who wore a little makeup poorly. And guys clearly don't seem to favor women who wear no makeup. So the problem really isn't with women, or makeup, its with inartfulness and your perception of reality.

More fundamentally, I disagree that guys don't like women to wear a lot of makeup. And there are plenty of guys that like fake breasts just fine.

Artifice is great, it just takes a lot of work. Most guys don't recognize that. And the worst guys get all bent out of shape when they discover that they've been had. Tell me we don't do the same.

Answer 4

Welll...

The best answer I can give you is that makeup is a security blanket for a lot of women. We want to be sexy and beautiful for our boyfriends, and we think that makeup can help us do it. Of couse, that backfires when it's too much makeup, but sometimes women don't realize it.

I agree with you though, natural beauty is the best (as for fake breasts though, I wouldn't know lol).

Answer 5

various women human beings have subject matters with their self photo via media and such, some are raised to placed on it, some attempt to conceal their flaws. It does no longer objectify all of us/some thing by technique of using make as a lot as ones face. by technique of that common sense doing some thing to your self is objectifying e.g. eating food. i do compared to makeup because that's pretend and that i want a lady who's inherently appealing because i trust her cost is more advantageous than someone who has to apply makeup to get an same seem. adult males won't be able to placed on makeup to conceal their flaws, a minimum of for the most area with no need made relaxing of, so I also imagine that that's unfair. If a lady has to placed on makeup each and every of the time i trust she is insecure and hiding flaws that's unattractive to me. clone of how their isn't any one race, one coiffure, one outfits type, one which each and every one women human beings locate appealing in adult males there is not any one component that each and every one adult males like. some adult males have grown up round those who placed on makeup each and every of the time and for this reason like women human beings with makeup. I mean there are endless causes for someones pastime in some thing.

Answer 6

Well,why don't most men follow a good skin care
regimine or program? Alot of guys would look way
better if they followed a skin care routine on a daily
basis,so why don't most men do it? They really
should!!!
why would women let men tell them how to look?
A womans breast size doesn't matter,just like if
a man had a normal size penis,why should he
long for a huge one,ect.....?

Answer 7

How sweet... my husband has been telling me this for years and now that a total stranger is saying it, I finally believe the sentiment!! (LOL!!)

I agree... make-up in excess is not only unnecessary, it is unflattering. I am not against make-up, however. I have drawers and drawers full... it's a girly thing, I suppose.

My eyes don't look like tarantulas, but I can't leave the house without at least a minimal sweep of mascara and lip gloss.

Answer 8

Some women are so insecure about their personal appearance that they feel they are not attractive unless they wear make up.

Men could try to reverse that by building up their girl's self esteem and remind her consistently and daily of how beautiful she is. Drive the compliments home even more so when she doesn't have the make up on.

Over time, she will begin to believe it.

Answer 9

Have you seen some women without their make-up? Scary. The sad thing is that once we start using make-up we can never turn back.It is possible to create a 'natural' look with it though.Real breasts over fake? Im pleased to hear that ;-)

Answer 10

Because women are conditioned to believe that men find that attractive.
Men are conditioned to like that because it fans their fantasies.
Most guys cannot tell real breasts from false ones unless they actually know you before you got them or get to see the scars on the underside.
