Well, I am not a guy but I say : Do what you want. Wear how much you want, wear none, wear it natural, wear it colorful, whatever :)! Guys should accept you as you are. I don't think it's necessarily a turn off if it's done right. I know girls in my high school who even thought try to obtain the natural look, you can see their foundation a mile away lol. And when some guys say :I like natural girls. That isn't natural haha. That natural is obtained by at least 15 minutes of applying make-up, but it usually looks good, I gotta admit.
I don't really wear make-up mainly because from my friends I think I am like the only one with a pretty nice skin, no acne, smaller eye bags stuff like that. And I am still young , so I like to keep my face young as long as I can't. I will probably use make-up more when I am a bit older, but right now I am fine like this and don't care that much. Guys aren't attracted by me anyway, but I've been told I have a nice face while not wearing any make-up.
I know you probably want to hear a guy's perspective but, I say do what you want. Wear makeup how you want to wear your makeup. It doesn't matter. I was told I wear too much makeup and I was told I wear the right amount. See some of my guy friends said to me "You wear too much makeup" When my everyday look is liquid eyeliner and lipstick or lip gloss. I don't wear eyeshadow ever, only on special occasion, but to some of my guy friends that was considered "too much makeup". Guy's perspective on makeup is so bizarre, cause even if you wear eyeliner and eyeshadow and lip gloss they'll still say "It's too much" if you just wear eyeliner or mascara or something they'll say "It's too little" So really guys have a weird perspective on makeup and honestly I don't think there is a rule to makeup in my opinion. I believe in doing what you want, if you like getting dolled up, then do it girl! :) Flaunt it, and forget these guys if they say "it's too much" cause that is ridiculous.
Guys are full of shit. It really annoys me. It's like they think they're being different by saying that they like girls who don't wear make-up and saying they prefrr chubby girls over slim ones, and that's the only reason they say it, because they think it makes them look better for not liking what "normal people" like. As upsyndrome said, if two girls look the same the made-up one will get more attention than the one who isn't. That's why they do it in the first place. Sure, if it's really overdone it looks bad, but if done right it makes you look better.
Girls are the same when they say they don't like muscular men. Every guy I know who works out says that women show them more attention when they're bigger, and it has been the same in my experiebce. I had a fenale friend who said she hated muscular men, yet whenever we went out she'd be all over them.
Sorry about the rant, its just annoying lol.
Make up isn't a turn off, but I find less is more. I have seen so many girls who cake their face in make up that I mistakenly believe they are applying for a job with a travelling circus.
Make up is not a problem, but I find with make up more often than not less is more.

Being able to see your natural face is soo amazing. people would always say to my girlfriend "aww your pretty" and i would barge in and say "You mean Gorgeous? yeah thats her natural beauty" ... please dont say "well sometimes makeup is the only things that makes certian girl look/feel pretty. Be ause personally, going without makeup gives this glowing confidence that literaly shows in a girls smile (: not a turn off but it warms my heart when a girl doesnt, makes me proud to say "hey, i saw that girl once" lol... just tey a week without makeup, even without "just mascara" lol... according to my gf "your opinion of life changes, with only 7 free days... i imagine everyone within the fifty foot diameter' of me will change if i go a month!" ... haha. she's so cute and exaggerative and perfect (: ... she recently decided about six months ago to stop wearing makeup, which was a week before i asked her out... sorry about the mini "life story" you just got haha!!
1. Make up done the right way isn't ever a turn off
2. As long as I can see the person beneath the make up and it's not all caked up it's ok
3. Someone who does make up to change their looks all the time is a turn off - not the make up but the thought :)
4. Being dolled up is cute but I'd sure like to see the person beneath it too :)
5. I don't want to taste make up every time too lol
6. If that's your pic - you're cute :) just don't overdo it that's all (refer to point 3)
I like seeing a woman wearing makeup. I don't like it caked on to the point of not recognizing her if she were to take it off.
Makeup should enhance a woman's beauty, not cover it up. I do like seeing a little more for a nice night. For every day, don't over power it. If she likes going natural, cool too. Her personal preference and style.
I'm a girl but in my opinion i don't think its a turn off to men. but i think if you're wearing make up because you are self conscious of your looks then that will probably be a major turn off for a guy. men like women who are confident. so i think wearing make up to your liking is perfectly fine, but you have to be able to be comfortable and express yourself in front of your boyfriend at times without your make up on. (some men LOVE women with beautiful make up) i think maybe a turn off would be if you look like a full blown panda with your make up. the case where you hear all the guys complaining about girls wearing make up, probably he has met/talked to other girls who wear a TON of make up and complain saying things like "i look ugly" or "do you think im pretty" of course that would annoy anyone after awhile.
I only wear bb cream, concealer, powder, bronzer, blush, a light eyeshadow, mascara (nothing overly noticeable), I fill In my brows, and I wear lipstick. It feels light and bright and it boosts my confidence. If a guy doesn't like that ehh oh well you should do what makes you feel more confident. But I heard that guys prefer natural looking make up
If it's like this then yea.

from my experience if there are two girls of equal physical attractiveness (except one needs make-up to reach that level while the other one doesn't) and personality.. the one with make-up will get approached over the one without
It's a turn off for me, but a small subtle amount placed only to conceals or enhance can do without being a turn off. Most women use too much, and virtually all girls (young women, and teens) do.
It depends on how much makeup you put on. In your personality picture are you waring makeup?
Steep generalization, but in my experience the more apparent her makeup is, the more narcissistic she's been. Girls who wear little or none tend to be down to Earth, and are more my type.
it can be.
a friend of mine i had once only wore make up around her eyes. and it was amazing
^^
To me it's to much when it no longer looks natural or you look like a clown.
only use makeup to enhance your natural beauty not to hide it
You look fine with little make up, dont push it.
Wear enough to look really healthy is what I like.
