Do I have to wear foundation when wearing a "bold" lipstick (or any lipstick in general)?

I read and often heard that you should be wearing a foundation, is it a must? The only makeup I like to use is an eyeliner, mascara and lipsticks. I don't like the foundation, concealer, highlighter stuff..

Guys, does it look bad when you see a woman with natural skin, no foundation but with eye makeup and lipstick on?

Honestly do what you want and don’t make decisions based on what a stranger online says is attractive or appealing. I have an Asian friend who didn’t wear dark or black eyeshadow for years and years because she was told by a professional makeup artist that it’s not flattering and would make her already small eyes look smaller and tired. One day she just decided she was going to wear a Smokey eye because she wanted to and that’s the look she gets the most compliments on now. So do you!

No you don't have to, do whatever makes you happy.

I don't like foundation either and never got what's the point in wearing in. It just accentuates any pores, texture problems, skin blemishes, or looks too cakey and ends up making me look older. The only makeup I usually wear is lip stain/lip gloss, blush, mascara and some eyeshadow in the crease

Just make sure you drink a lot of water and your skin is moisturized
