    Why do a lot of women go for this type of look.......?
    When I say this look, I mean the fake, TOWIE look? I mean is it cos they think it makes them look good?

    I mean it must cost a fortune to do and take a hell of a lot of time. Most men (myself included) prefer more natural girls. I mean fair enough if they find it fun but whenever I see girls like this, I stay well away cos they're pretty likely to be shallow and simple (not always) and lack any sophistication. I completely understand why women would use makeup as if well applied it can improve your attractiveness a fair bit but I just cant understand this.

    Most likely due to insecurity. I don't know how anyone can do that to themselves!

    That picture actually looks like someone's shopped her head onto her body. Comparing to the picture next to it, her neck's shrunk and her skin colour changes dramatically from back to face. That picture really does look fake, despite it being (probably) real, so if that's down to her make up I think you have a solid point.

    Insecurities. They think, if they put enough make up on, it will cover their insecurities too, which is not the case.

    That looks clownish. I don't actually know anyone who looks like those women, but I do see them around... I'd say that thankfully most women don't look like that.


    I think it actually depends on where you are though. I hardly ever see this in Canterbury, but back home in Torquay a lot of girls attempt the look.

    It's the plastic fake look. Not attractive at all.

    They do it because they want to look like people from the television.
    Regardless of the fact that they look stupid.

    Because many men find that look attractive? It makes them more sexually appealing? They would be more respected?

    This would be a question for the Greek philosophers if they were still alive.

    It certainly defeats all common human logic.

    As a girl I try and stay awake from this look, fair enough some make up to make a girl feel good but some people take it to an extreme where it changes completely who they are.

    Can't wait to leave Essex to go to uni in a decent part of the country. The saddest thing is that other guys seem to fall for this look, yet when you express your disdain, you get picked on. I can't help it if I like girls who have more to offer than this Katie price look.

    This.

    Men and plain girls is like women and nice guys. Guys say they like plain girls but the caked up ones are the ones who get hit on the most in clubs.

    I'm not jumping on that band wagon I honestly believe that women look better with make-up on however that much make-up is senseless, all things in moderation and all that

    Because they get compliments and attention when dressed like that.
