is there really any need to be so rude? you have done nothing to answer the OP's post. all you have done is insult people. No I don't think I'm the centre of attention, it did seem a bit too much of a coincidence though.

On a day where I'm in a rush it takes 10 minutes, concealer, foundation and mascara. Days where I wear a bit more, like lipstick, highlighter and eye liner, it takes 15 minutes.

I wouldn't say my makeup is very noticeable really, I rarely go for say red lipstick or noticeable blusher or anything.

I can't see your point, all I said was I don't mind girls wearing make up. And let me rephrase my sentence from the previous post: I'm not a big fan of too much make-up. I don't know why you jumped to the conclusion "then u' ll feel disappointed when u see them without make up". Are you telling me to be disappointed whenever I see a girl without make up? Why do you wear make up anyway?

Depends how tastefully done their make up is.

even eyeliner/mascara/lipstick? With face stuff (foundation), I'd understand.


I guess it depends on how much you use. And if I want to get intimate with you.

:rofl: how is this guy banned? :confused:

Yes. But if a girl decides to wear a little make up then that's no problem:wink: By little I mean a dash of powder, mascara and lip gloss.

thanks guys:smile: I don't smudge the eyeliner further in because it makes my eyes appear smaller, might try just blending it more, I sometimes wear a small amount of black eye shadow so it's not so much of a contrast:smile:
I know it's in fashion not to have mascara/eyeliner underneath the eye but that doesn't suit me either it makes me look like my eyes are a really narrow shape! haha:smile:

I think you're going a bit heavy under the eye to be honest. Its difficult because everyone's face suits different makeup. I can't wear under the eye makeup as it makes my eyes look Even smaller and the same goes for anything more than light eye shadow.

So liquid eyeliner and mascara only for me.

In terms of eye shadow, once you've put on a darker colour blend a lighter one from the inner corner, I often use gold, and that helps with the issue you've been having of making your eyes look smaller. I know as I have tiny eyes so have to do everything I can to avoid making them appear any smaller!

I think your eyebrows are fab by the way, what do you use to fill them?

Generally I have found most people look better with makeup so I would say wear it. Do it for you.I spend about 10 minutes on makeup daily. For a night out maybe half and hour.

Some guys have this weird misconception that makeup completely transforms every single woman's face completely. There's a post in this thread saying that you'd be "disappointed" when you see a woman who wears makeup without it, that's completely untrue!

I wear foundation, concealer and blush on my skin and it literally looks like I have no makeup on at all on my skin. It just makes me look a lot less tired and evens my skintone! As for eyes, I sometimes wear a bit of liquid liner if I can be bothered, mascara and white liner on the bottom lashline to brighten my eyes (it's not noticeable at all, just makes a subtle difference). 10 mins on a college day, 30 or so mins when I have ages to get ready.

Even after all of this, I pretty much look exactly the same as before just a little more defined, def not a completely different person!

Make up should not be visible, its suppose to help you reach that natural perfect look. The problem is that most women do not know how to wear make up and go over the top. I personally do not think you can beat the natural no make-up fresh faced look, and that is achieved by skincare not layers of God knows what kind of chemicals many women tend to forget to wash off before they go to bed, the worst.
Mine takes 30 seconds to 5 minutes depending on how much of a rush I'm in. My boyfriend is not a fan of overly made up girls, fake hair, nails boobs etc and neither am I

I wear foundation/bb creams because I have quite extensive scarring from hormonal underground acne. Then a little kohl and have been using £ shop mascara for 2 years until I finally splashed out on a Maybelline one and actually still prefer using the £ shop brush with it...

Boyfriend praises me for not spending all day in the bathroom, thinks I'm beautiful without makeup but understands that I prefer to stick a bit of foundation on if we are going out. Not because I need to feel beautiful, just Not Ugly >_>

As an artist I really enjoy going a bit OTT now and then. This was specifically to match an Okami (Capcom video game) cosplay head, not to go out..



I'd like to think my everyday look isn't too 'fake' or offputting. Some guys on this forum seem really pissed off about makeup but we do feel social pressure to look perfect all the time as well as dealing with extra woman hormones... Forgive me for being deceitful @_@



I also don't really pluck my eyebrows.. They're a bit irregular from a skin condition that disrupted the growth for 2 years... I suspect more women are preoccupied with shaping them than men? Or should we make an effort to make them more lady-shaped?

One thing I noticed about women in porn etc is that their makeup is often done to really define features. I think that might be to highlight facial expressions communicatively to the male audience (statement eyeshadow, bold red lipstick OR shiny nude lipgloss, defined eyebrows etc How do you actually respond to that? Do you fun lipgloss and things tacky? Do you find stripper makeup attractive or does it purely serve the over-emphasises-facial-expressions purpose?

What do you mean falling asleep?

And yeah. It is insane because it's copying the markings of a Shinto goddess reincarnated as a wolf @_@ My boyfriend doesn't get any of that shot either and got to say a lot of cosplay just looks weird to most people. I draw the line at wigs.

But I like to the think the second one doesn't look caked on or hookerish. I just discovered some people 'contour' their entire face. Like put on a primer then foundation then highlight areas then use a bronzer/blusher, sort of shading the face as you would a painting. The overall effect is impressive sometimes but makes me feel a bit uncomfortable if that were my girlfriend. It must also be unbelievably expensive.

That must be thing that annoys you guys right? How much most of your women must SPEND on disposable products like makeup? Does it? Women tend to complain about men spending money on games or cars but at least those things are solid and in use for years
