Really interesting. Do you perhaps have a link to/more detailed source information on the Cosmo study? I'd love to see the difference between the three pictures the men were shown.
I like make-up on a girl as long as it isn't a massacre but at the end of the day there is nothing more beautiful then seeing my baby girl in all her glory (without make-up) all natural :)
You're completely right, men don't usually realize when girls *are* wearing makeup. It's true they like it, that's why they've never gone for me. Still doesn't mean I'm going to change though :D
I'm a guy. I used to look nerdy. Now I work out, eat lots of fruit, nuts & vegetables, run, cyclie, drink lots of water, take vitamins, avoid the sun, do facial exercises, cleanse, tone, exfoliate my skin, shave carefully & use Retin-A to stop my acne. No makeup! I dress well. It works. Girls stop, stare, point me out to their friends, or sometimes ask my number.
I hate that girls get away with just face-painting I avoid those girls and go for ones with interesting personalities.
Makeup is used for covering up a defect. I would much rather see a womans real beauty rather than try to look like something else. I see a woman with makeup and I wonder what is she trying to cover up. The name of the one brand says it all. "Coverup"

AWESOME ARTICLE. Thank you. You finally answered the question. Men actually love makeup, they just don't know their girl is wearing it ;]
Sorry, I don't mean to make this an argument, but like I said, these kinds of studies irritate me lol
That's an interesting assertion, Skeptic. I wonder how you're able to tell, at first glance, whether a girl is wearing makeup or not.
Great article! I totally agree with the importance of NATURAL looking make up. (Even when it's 10 different products patted onto their face.)
I wear mascara and foundation, when its a special occasion eyeliner added to that mix. I am honestly to lazy to put makeup on in the mornings.

Mostly agree with you. I personally like make up when it complements the girls features.
And most don't know that they like makeup. - Indeed. ^^
I only like makeup on a girl if I've seen her without it first.
Thanks for this article! :P I'm a Makeup Artist and agree with this ;)
if they love the face they wake up to in the morning, that's all that really matters.
So what's supposed to happen when he sees you without make-up?
I'd have to say yeah makeup is not necessary but I like a little. I like no makeup the best
I think if they can see my face --- I'm good to go. I'm sure they won't mind curled lashes and a delicious lip gloss.
My two cents.
No and yes
it depend how good you really do look we can see your face behind clown makeup but if you hide it you look less repulsive. not you but other lol
