    Guys what kind of make-up do you like? POLL
    Hey guys!
    On this forum and in real life i've heard guys claim that they like "natural" girls much better than dolled up girls and i've always wondered whether this is true. I used four different girls (mixed race, vietnamese, norwegian and chinese) and tried finding pics of each one of them with different types of make up on ("natural", cute/romantic, hot, fake/strong, colourful/night out)-however it was very hard since most of these girls usually only wear one type of make-up look, so apologies if not all the pics for each category accurately depict the look.
    So guys which look do you prefer? and girls share your opinion as well.

    before anyone asks :

    girl one=jasmine sanders


    girl two=michelle phan


    girl three=emilie voe


    girl four=angelbaby (Angela Yang Ying/Angelabab)



    "natural":

    For most of those girls even If I didn't like the makeup I could see past it.

    No makeup, just who they are.

    Some detail can be nice little a little eyeliner for example but, in general, none is the best.

    I only ever bother with make-up when it's a special occasion or night out. I generally go for a natural look, but even when it's colourful I don't go overboard. I never use foundation or blusher or any of the endless products, just some eyeshadow, eyeliner and mascara (and lipgloss, hate lipstick ugh). I really, really don't understand the obssession with fake tan and fake eyelashes the size of Texas :facepalm:

    None, I can't be ****ed with the "oh let me go fix my makeup", "oh wait 30mins before we go out anywhere".


    Colorful/night out looks awful. :yucky: They look like prostitutes.

    Makeup that suits them, very light make-up though.

    Also red lipstick on black girls, stop. Red lipstick on ghost white girls, no.

    Just keep it simple, if anything you should focus on making your skin look nice and healthy. Make-up makes your skin worse.

    Why did you put quotation marks around natural?

    Yeah, i prefer a minimalistic approach
    A little makeup is fine but i would like a girl to show her natural beauty rather than mask it with hundreds of artificial chemicals!

    As long as she isn't caked in make up i really don't care.

    If a woman needs this to feel confident i don't see how its an issue, i'd kill for an equally effective way to improve my confidence relating to appearance.

    Because they're still wearing make-up but it's not made to look obvious. Natural
    make-up is usually just foundation, concealer, mascara, nude shades and maybe a bit of gloss. (Doesn't have to be all of them! XD)
