Girls who don't wear makeup are usually called *basicas* which is funny to me because at least we don't depend on makeup to feel pretty.
There are women who keep instilling in the mind of other women that they're average looking withouth makeup so they have to wear it, which is a disgusting mindset to have if you ask me. A lady should be confident with and without makeup and if she doesn't wear it that doesn't make her a basica or an average looking woman, it honestly makes her stand out. Wearing moderate makeup is beautiful but please don't encourage women to wear it just for the sake of male attention. Encourage them to be confident with their natural beauty.
I'm still curious to know the answers to this question though 😶

Is it true that girls who don't wear makeup get less attention from guys?
I love answering your questions because you are smart you are intelligent you have passion you have desire you look at everything and not in one way but in all ways you are a leader you are a voice I agree with you 100% with everything you just said but for me I think I give more attention to girls without makeup and girls with and I'm not a girl and I'm not that girl but when I look at girls I see the beauty within can I see the Beauty written all over the face of somebody with no makeup now I understand and I respect girls that wear makeup like going out on a Friday or Saturday night and they want to feel a certain way I see that's cool you don't have to overload but at the same time be who you want to be feel what you want to feel and don't let anyone suede you is Direction to choice you pick who you want to be or do like but I love you have a nice tan their skin looks healthy clean and refresh but as a guy I think no makeup this the best for me LOL and if I was a girl the no makeup would be the best for me too LOL and I just want to thank you for all your questions you have the best you have a lot of good questions your teacher 2
I answered a question like this a while back and many girls and guys found it informative so I'll add a portion of it here.
You will notice most guys say makeup does not get more attention but women with experience recognize that this is not the reality. It is not that men are lying but most men are very unaware of when a girl is wearing makeup or not. Some men also don't like the idea of make up because it can mistakenly be taken for fakeness, bitchiness, too high maintenance or insecurity. On top of that, I believe that many men want women to feel beautiful in their own skin although some men may have some selfish ulterior motives.
The truth is you will get less attention without makeup because makeup is designed to get peoples attention. It doesn't necessarily mean you'll look better although if often does make a girl look better. If the makeup is noticeable most guys will also see the makeup and subconsciously think that she is looking to meet someone and guys want to meet girls but nobody likes to get rejected so many guys feel that if a girl is looking to meet someone, then there is less likely chance for rejection. Guys won't necessarily flock towards you if you're wearing makeup though because most guys don't have balls, but girls who've gone out with and without makeup will usually tell you that the makeup definitely gets more attention.

I think that a woman who looks good without makeup is better than one who looks good with makeup. Naturally beauty is better than prettiness from chemicals.
I personally think that cosmetics are unnecessary chemicals that create vicious circles. When a woman/girl thinks that she looks better with makeup, she continues to rely on it to look good, but the chemicals in cosmetics destroys her skin, and she looks older, sicker, or paler without makeup in comparison to when she does, so she continues to wear makeup. Cosmetics damage her skin more, and she continues to wear makeup to cover up damages.
I have only worn makeup for very special occasions, such as prom, graduation ceremony, scholarship dinner, etc. and if I was to attend someone's wedding.
I don't find it necessary to spend money on cosmetics and time putting on makeup. I also have sensitive skin and I'm allergic to cosmetics and/or makeup remover. I don't know what ingredients since I don't wear makeup to figure out which, but whenever I wore makeup, I had edema (swelling) around my eyes from concealer, rashes around my eyes and on my lips from eye liner/eye shadow and lipsticks. I even tested a little amount of cosmetics on the back of my hand and removed it, I ended up with a little edema in that area.
I have always heard that guys prefer women without makeup on, you can see almost all of the guys on your question have said the same thing. I personally don’t think I look good without makeup on. I always wear some minimal makeup every single day because I just can’t stand looking at myself without makeup on I look terrible I can’t go barefaced. I have even considered on getting permanent makeup but there’s cons to that so I honestly don’t know if I will. I know that can affect me with relationships; but I am not attractive so at least I have that to make me feel better. Now girls who are naturally gorgeous can definitely go without makeup on if I was naturally gorgeous believe me I wouldn’t wear makeup.
Unfortunately your opinion is true. I am a photographer and try to champion natural beauty. However I think society has accepted that putting makeup on for women has become the norm. You get people saying stuff like natural makeup, that still is makeup is it not? Us guys don't slap it on to get perfect smooth skin. Yes put makeup on if you want but don't use it as a tool to hide behind and cover your insecurities. When I do photoshoots I prefer makeup that fits the theme or is used in an artistic way. Not just because the model feels more comfy covering her flaws. If you want to be a model then you should first be comfortable with your natural self. It's the same with editing I only do light skin smoothing for artistic effect. I refuse to work with models who expect me to give them a quick bit of plastic surgery. That is sadly the world we live in you are either a prude and hate women who strip nude for the camera or you slap on lots of make up and sexualise yourself because you can and know it gets you money. Not that I have anything against the adult workers etc. It's just manor in which some manipulate guys for a quick buck and know what they are doing.
I tend to do active sports n stuff and partners taking part don’t usually wear make up.
also most guys rarely get passed the boob part of the body.
For some girls they may have the odd acne scar or similar so wear concealer.
as mentioned above, I tend to do active stuff, so a days mountain biking makes makeup pointless lol.
however make up is designed to highlight features such as eyes and lips, so it’s there to signal and others do pick up on it, both girls and guys.
a bit like body type, etc, for me it the person not the exterior as such.
Wearing make up may give some a touch more confidence (acne scars etc) but it does not give some one a sense of humour, having a laugh, being interesting etc (unless linked to confidence)...
The answer to this is simply not true it's a no, a real guy and a real man wouldn't care if you wear makeup or not he will care about your personality more than you look a boy on the other hand will care about more than your looks and your body and how many body counts you have then your personality. Cuz personality never goes away.
There are studies that prove that women who don't wear makeup do get less male attention. Whether this is a good or bad thing is up to personal interpretation, e. g. the male attention missed out on may be from guys you wouldn't want attention from, to begin with.
I actually notice when women are so naturally attractive that they need little make up. It usually means that when they do wear make up they are more obviously beautiful. It depresses me that there are so many attractive women that it would be impossible to get to know all of their orgasms. It makes me want to be proactive and simply explain to girls I find attractive and tell them, " I'm infatuated with the arousal and orgasms of different women so I;d like to get you on my schedule and experience what so many more girls orgasms are like. I think we use a snowflake as an example of a large number of things all slightly different. It's more acceptable to tell some poor 8 year old that no 2 snowflakes are alike. Most children would probably prefer to know that no two women cum the same than a boring example like a snowflake. What was the question again?
I absolutely agree with you! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Just because you're a woman it doesn't mean you should wear makeup or base your beauty on how much makeup you're wearing. So, I don't believe that is true. Plus, each man has his own preferences.
Getting "attention" and being fetching are not the same. You can get attention getting your tits out, doesn't mean you'll be going home with the man of your dreams, as a result.
Likewise, makeup and looking stylish are often misconstrued. You can do either or both, simply because you want to. Not because you need to. Plus not all attention is good attention.
I either find a woman beautiful or I don't. If I see a woman without makeup and I find her attractive, it will be no different than if she had makeup on. Women are most beautiful without makeup, because makeup is not part of them. It's an accessory. A woman is either attractive or she isn't.
I don’t think so, depends on the guys preference probably. I do wear makeup most of the time but it’s natural looking. However when I’m off doing adventurous things outdoors I only wear sunscreen. I haven’t noticed a difference in attraction from guys really, but maybe the environment plays into that too since outdoorsy guys may also prefer women who wear less makeup, who knows.
Makeup can improve the look of someone, sure. But many with natual beauty tend to cover it up. But sometimes the best thing one can to is facial care to improve complexion and health to bring out attractive traits. Wearing makeup all the time can clog pores and ruin the natural beauty. Personally i would like to see women start a movement where women just do skincare and no makeup for 6 months to see how society changes their view around them
With enough makeup you can look like a completely different person, but the problem is that guys would rather your real face be attractive that be with someone who they only ever see with their fake face on.
Being attractive without the makeup is *far* more valued. If you are not attractive without makeup, then makeup can't really make you attractive, rather it hides that you're unattractive.
Its funny cause I get told "you'll look so much prettier without make up" so often yet I get called pretty more often when I wear makeup than when I don't... I worked with a guy who said this, he doesn't talk to me when I don't wear makeup 😂😂
It may be a little confusion so let me explain - they call you pretty more often when you have makeup on because makeup is design to bring attention. To catch his eye. Same way a flashing light will catch our eye. But the fact that we later consider you "pretty" is not because of the makeup. It's because you're just pretty. When you don't wear makeup, it's just harder to notice you in a sea of other women with makeup. Hope I helped :)
Yes, because he notices you more. Makeup was originally made to fool male's eye into thinking that you are close to orgasm. That's why to this day you put red, warm colors on your cheek and dark colors on your eyes. The fashion of the makeup changed over the years but that was the original purpose - to make you look like similar to a natural state when you are close to cumming. But again - just because he notices you more, doesn't mean he will consider you more beautiful :)
Yes, as I said, those fashion choices changed over the years. And in some cases, girls don't use those colors. But in general, those are the tones and colors makeup uses. Just because you don't wear this makeup, doesn't mean it's not true. Look at the shades of lipstick. Yes, some girls wear black, blue or purple shades. But the vast majority of colors revolves around one color - RED. Light red, dark red, vibrant red etc.
All of the men I've dated said they preferred me without makeup. But perhaps they equate makeup with being the type of woman who takes care of herself in other ways upon meeting her.
Most of the women I have been most attracted to, and loved, never used make up!! I loved them, just being them, who they naturally are, and just amazingly BEAUTIFUL, without all that paint shit!!
I would definitely talk to a woman with no makeup before talking to one wearing enough makeup to patch collision damage on a car first, if that answers the question.
Not necessarily, no. I for one tend to admire girls with less make-up more. The ones with too much make-up also get my attention but more like in a 'damn! that's too much!' way.
If you put two girls in front of me one with no makeup and bland fashion and another with makeup and a cool look, I'd choose the done up one all things being equal.
It's about putting effort into your appearance not needing it to look pretty.
One time for my training at the hospital, I turned up to shift with zero makeup on to save time as I was exhausted and running later than usual. When the doctor came onto the ward to do his round he was looking at me more than usual, and I just felt like I must have looked really ill or something like he was doing an assessment as to why in his head 🤣
@NorthShoreCalling I will guess he was saying to himself wow she looks great without makeup. especially if he was staring more than usual. I think if you looked sick (him being a Doctor) would have said something
