I've pointed out before that if you look at Miss America contests pictures from 1900 you'll see that by modern standards almost all of the women had meh or worse faces. But they all had A+ bodies. When mass photo advertising and movies came along people started judging the average woman based on the upper 3% of best looking female faces. Something that wouldn't have happened in older times. But it goes deeper than that too because our modern idea of "A+ body" is also warped. In the old days almost every single woman had hot fit body because they (and men) were doing lots of manual labor that kept them in shape. Plus they had good quality food. Not over processed junk. Nobody had to pay for a gym membership. Even when I was a kid, most of the mass produced food was HEALTHY. Getting back to your question:
1. Re-program your mind not to value women who slather makeup on like the Kardashians. Then you can compare apples to apples which would be looking at women with little/less makeup and finding some attractive. Then...
2. Yes, some will be gross. Some will look great. Your whole idea of 'mediocre" vs. not is warped by being brainwashed by mass media.
3. This doesn't mean that I'm in the crowd that says "whatever women say is true". If a 450 pound woman tells me she looks hot I'm not accepting that. It is about what YOU think. Not about what she thinks. But let's be fair about it. Let's not compare a woman who spends 5 seconds on makeup to a woman who has $5k worth of makeup and professional photoshop experts working for 2 hours on every picture she publishes.
I NEVER liked the 'tons of makeup' look. I laugh at guys who get surprised that their girlfriend has skin like a zombie. Do yourself a favor and learn to ignore the ones who go overboard on makeup.

Wow. Certainly two ends of the spectrum. Women look better with some makeup to smooth out the blotches and give the face more color and interest. There is a limit though and the makeup on the right is just clownish. Most guys too can benefit from a bit of color and smoothing over the blemishes and discolorations, especially past 35. Personally I like the French approach to make up which is less and more discreet. It's a personal choice and nobody should have to defend wearing or not wearing makeup. It's not high on my list of must-haves in a relationship.
From my own experience, I don't wear makeup. It's a nice way to save money and I can focus more on my health and passions.
However, women don't always wear makeup to hide their insecurities but rather as a form of art. Unless they do wear makeup for their insecurities, then I believe it's a problem and that woman should work on loving and accepting herself. But to answer your question directly, I believe every woman is beautiful with or without makeup, although I prefer a more natural look. And I like the left more than the right.
Real attractive women don’t wear makeup.
Makeup is full of chemicals and makes your skin worse. I have sensitive skin so I wear it occasionally. And when I do wear it,
I remove it as soon as possible.
I don’t get how girls wear it at a young age and everyday.

your question does not make sense, because the most attractive women are considered more attractive when they have a large face size this is also called the golden ratio, which indicates a high symmetry out of the ordinary, this arouses a sense of pleasure in most of the women. people who look at them, those few idiots who answered you with a "yes," are people who do not know the existence of objective beauty and the golden ratio, others say it because they have a bad or mediocre partner and envy those who have a partner considered beautiful by many. they do not even have the intelligence to understand that if, for example, a woman has a bad nose, a crooked face, you do nothing with make-up, make-up only serves to highlight the eyes or to cover skin imperfections, but only some women have acne and bad marks to cover, not all of them. and then the physicist do not consider it?
Just about every girl looks better with makeup than she does without it (assuming she is skilled at applying it). However, how stark the difference is will depend on how attractive or unattractive she was before the makeup, how much makeup she uses, and what kind of makeup she uses. I don't think the difference is as stark for most women as the example you used. And even in your example, I think that girl is still fairly pretty without makeup if it wasn't for the acne, and would even look better than she did with the makeup because there's just sooo much of it. And honestly, if you can't tell when a girl has that much makeup caked on, or don't have the critical thinking to realize "Oh, if she's wearing that much makeup, she probably looks drastically different without it, and may not be very attractive", and then end up getting fooled by her, you only have yourself to blame.
I don't think the girl in the picture is particularly bad looking, acne is her issue, but I don't find her that attractive in either picture anyway.
The point is, anyone can look a lot better with makeup on and anyone who looks better without without it, probably isn't applying it right, I mean if I knew how to wear it, I could simply make my skin tone look more even and I'd look better too.
If nothing else, the comparison of makeup vs without makeup can be harsh.
This is the way I look at it:
If the average guy is about a 5/6 without makeup, then so is the average without it.
Whilst makeup helps, it's kind of like a cheat code in my opinion, but I'm not taking away anyone's right to wear it.There is attractive with make up and attractive without make up. Natural beauty and cosmetic beauty.
Both are beautiful in their own way, although natural is the real thing. It's just that medias push cosmetic beauty (only because it makes money for selling products) as the only one that exists and people are enough disillusioned to trust media more than real life.
Do you want proof? If you're a woman, than you probably had experience when there were situations in which you didn't care about the way you look and you were more approached than when you were in full set-up make up condition.You either feel it or you don't. I prefer seeing women without makeup when I'm attracted to her and with when I'm not. Most women I don't respond to her pheromones, but when I do she's the most beautiful woman on earth. Women I am compatible with I prefer no makeup so I can get used to her real face, but so many women wear it for work, social gatherings, and the relationship. I don't like it as I see it as a lie and it messes with my head. I can still recognize her, but somewhere in the back of my head it seems off as she looks different. It doesn't bare on her attraction, but makes me uncomfortable in excess. I have some beautiful female friends, but the feeling is neutral. Externally they are pretty, but the physical response isn't present. I find attraction to be a physical response that enhances appearance. Some women are just desirable, but when you are actually attracted they appear more so.
If she just got rid of the acne she’d be very attractive...
I think most women look worse in makeup, at least face to face, they may look better on TV and in pictures, but even then, a lot of the time they don’t. Reality is most women don’t know how to apply makeup to begin with. It’s a security blanket, and to me it says more about them than just appearances. If I know a girl won’t leave the house without makeup under any circumstance (even if it’s “just” some mascara) it’s a huge turn off for me. You do you but that’s my feelings on it.That woman isn’t even attractive. Her features are ugly and her skin is horrendous so obviously she looks meh without the layers of cake. She doesn’t even look amazing with makeup.
No not all women look bad without or even with makeup. It depends on features. You clearly don’t know how to judge what features are conventionally attractive.I would say you need to see someone barefaced to know if they are attractive or not. Or should I say, ‘a natural beauty’.
A lot of people look worse with the thick makeup they wear. Just as someone average can look pretty decent with the right ‘face’ on.It's hard to say, because most woman I see wearing makeup, I never get to see what they look like without it
The girl in the pic is very pretty. She may not have flawless skin without makeup due to acne, but that doesn't make her any less pretty in my opinion.
I can sometimes tell by people's facial features if they'll be attractive or not without their makeupI will never forget the first time that happen to me, thinking you hot chick, and then see her in the morning. And you're like damn, I wasn't that drunk...
Most younger women can get away with little makeup, and use more as they age. Somewhere after 35, many have to conceal wrinkles. I have seen so much foundation that that they changed the shape of their face.
This girl is hiding blimishes. Most of which is causes probably from oily skin and too much makeup.I'm pretty sure all that makeup is the reason she looks so bad without it, her skin never gets any sunlight so its weirdly pale and I'm sure the makeup is why she has acne.
I like girls that dont wear makeup, they have more natural beauty, it's like once you go makeup you can't go back cause it messes up your face and makes it only good as a canvas for makeup.Remember that app from a few years ago that removed makeup from a womans picture and how women called it misogynistic and sexist?
there's at least one answer for you.
If a woman is going to wear it, it shouldn't be much.
there's another answer.We look beautiful with and without but this is a nice way to tell everyone you have never had a girl sleep over 😌
My problem with this perception of makeup is that the girl in the photo is wearing a looooot of it. It might seem normal on camera but if you were to see someone with that much makeup on in real life it will be really obvious and unflattering. A woman who wears makeup 9/10 times does not look like that.
A lot of girls can’t step outside without their house makeup. Everyone has flaws. It’s just that they try to hide everything with makeup. And then they go onto say that they don’t need them and they look beautiful without it. Once you go with makeup there’s no stopping it. How many times have you gone outside and gotten attention and craved more of it? People can deny it all they want but no one ever loves their natural selves. It’s that simple. Don’t even get me started on the girls that post 1 pic without makeup and 300 with makeup. They proceed to say be confident baby to their followers 🤣. It’s like a fat man wearing a compression shirt to make himself look slimmer. It’s gonna come off sometime or later just like a girls makeup. And when it does the confidence will fade.
So here's the reality of it, you don't have a fucking choice!
Or actually, you do;
You can choose between a mediocre woman without makeup,
the palm of your sweaty right hand, or, ask your mom (she'll understand).I'd say nobody is perfect without makeup. Why would miss world and miss universe promote makeup? It's best to learn to b happy with sometimes and sometimes without makeup.
The girl in the picture has very attractive facial features. Just some blemishes in the skin which as we can see can b managed with makeup.
But the makeup in the picture is pretty heavy I guess. Could tone down a little may be. Ofcourse depends on ocassion.Truly attractive women look incredible without makeup. It's the ones that use a large amount of makeup to cover up the fact they're not that attractive that are a turn off. Believe it or not, I actually find the girl used as an example to be more attractive without makeup. She literally just needs to work on her acne and she'd be a diamond. The makeup makes her look like a clown. I do admit her hair does look better in the second photo though.
You can obviously do a lot with hair and makeup. Some girls need more “enhancement” than others but yeah... no one looks as good without makeup as they do with it. That’s just the nature of cosmetics. People still have a certain amount of natural beauty underneath though.
I think they look good with and without makeup. Makeup just covers flaws and enhances certain features. Most women ik don't really wear makeup and when they do it's just bc it makes them feel confident.
Tbh tho I wish makeup wasn't so normalized. I feel like a lot of people automatically expect me to wear makeup just bc I'm a girl.
