Do guys prefer girls who wear loads of makeup, just a little makeup, or who don't wear any makeup?

Little or no makeup is what looks nice to me. A little help but still a healthy "girl next door" look. Not trying too hard.

Heavy makeup looks fake and the wearer walks around paranoid about disturbing the paint job. So no hugs or kisses. And really heavy makeup can, I don't know the word for it, but crack? Basically she smiles and the makeup can't stay attached to the skin where laugh wrinkles appear on her face. Lastly she'll be constantly checking the paint job and running to the ladies room to touch it up. High maintenance.

The guys I’ve known aren’t into makeup when it comes to the gal they want to take home to mama and stick around with long-term. But I’ve seen loads of guys appear completely mesmerized by gals who have the makeup piled on, their hair done up and enough plastics and injections/fillers to make her more of a Barbie doll than a woman… 🤷🏻‍♀️

Lot of make up but "natural", that's what they prefer. Men cry about how women only want 1% but oh boy those men be going crazy if a woman does not look flawless.

Preferences vary among individuals. Some guys appreciate a natural look, while others like a more polished appearance with makeup. Ultimately, confidence and personality often matter more than makeup itself. Wear what makes you feel best and comfortable. 😊💄

HawkPerception · Answer

I've noticed over the years, the amount of makeup girls use is incredibly more than it used to be. I genuinely believe makeup is one of the worst inventions in humanity. It takes away from the natural beauty from girls and the majority of women overdo it nowadays.

I'm okay with a little eyeliner to emphasize on the eyes and a touch of concealer to conver blemishes, but anymore than that starts to take away rather than add to someone's look. Most women nowadays look like clowns with the boatload of foundation and crap they put on their faces and lip filler/injection crap.

FunkyMonkee · Answer

I kinda prefer no make-up but have no problem with her wearing SOME. Like, my ex-fiance would mostly only wear lipstick. I had no say in it, it was just her choice.
Although very made-up girls CAN look VERY pretty, I'd much rather see who I'm, looking at rather than what she wants to look like.
I don't mind if she wants to wear a little eyeliner and a touch of rouge and lipstick.
I know this girl that reminded me a LOT of Susanne Sommers (from, "Three's Company"). She was VERY pretty and sexy. A few years after I met her, she started caking on the black shit around her eyes `til she started to look like a raccoon! Last couple times I saw her, she wasn't wearing any make-up at all, from what I could tell, and, although she still looked very pretty, even though she stopped wearing all that black shit, it made her look worse BECAUSE she used so much for so long! It's like her skin absorbed enough of it that she just couldn't get rid of all of it.

Makeup can make a woman glow and look fresh.
But I hate too much makeup with obviously fake-looking eye lashes, too much eye liner, eye shadow, blush, etc.

I much prefer the subtle, almost imperceptible "no makeup" makeup look that covers shadows, enhances eyes, and makes her lips look soft and tender.

Kaneki05 · Answer

I would say little bit. No make up is great, but in gerenal a little bit is what most guys want.

They don't want you looking like another person with it on, as they want the same person without. So a little makes sense.

You'll find guys who want a lot will only want that for ya know sex after they leave.

Stevepro68 · Answer

Listen I mean this in the kindest way because you are young. The amount of make up a girl woman wears can be of no concern. There are always exceptions. To use an apology. It's like watching a TV show HD UHD 4k 8k pictures. Yes there is a difference... but he is more concerned with the show not the quality of the picture.

rybukakes · Answer

I like a woman who walks the street without wearing any and reassuring me that not all women have this weird fear of walking outside "naked" when they don't wear any makeup.

But I assume prefer means for dating purposes and if I am being honest, looks do matter somewhat for me and I find a little bit of makeup on a woman quite attractive to look at. That doesn't mean I would choose a woman purely on that basis, but if everything else was a tie, then that wpuld be my choice.

TheSpaceGnome · Answer

No make-up.
Make-up is just false advertizing, a way to make less attractive girls seem like more attractive girls. I want to pick a girlfriend based on looks and personality, and I can't do that if I have no idea what she actually looks like.

LiamS95 · Answer

For me little to none, I do recognize the fact that some very pale very fair blondes may need a bit of eye makeup to defi e their eyes but I'm not a fan of a lot of makeup. I do like when women care for their hands and look after their natural nails keeping them manicured and I like nail polish on their cared for finger nails.

OlderAndWiser · Answer

Some girls look great with no makeup and some look great with just a little makeup, but very few girls look good when they are wearing tons of makeup.

BarryLiverstone · Answer

Think we can all agree that loads of makeup is too much. Have you ever played around with your makeup and seen how differently you can look? Guys like to feel an attraction to what a girl looks like and would feel disappointed if they saw her in makeup one day (if it’s a lot) and she looked really different once the makeup came off.

Makes sense?

itsannalee · Answer

Men just like beautiful women, actually they don’t care with or without makeup. As long as they are good looking, that’s the most important thing.

MemeSupreme · Answer

don't ask them lol a girl could go for a natural look and a lot of guys wouldn't be able to tell she has makeup on

AviatorTom · Answer

I prefer a natural look, the way the woman would look when I wake up next to her in the morning. I acknowledge that most women like to wear makeup, and prefer she wears as much, or as little, makeup as she wants.

Blunky · Answer

A little makeup goes a long way and shows an understanding of her features (if it looks attractive). Too much makes me feel like I'm being swallowed by an amoeba when they get near.

Bricealan · Answer

@chloe1808 I see a little make up as just fine... some lipstick, and perhaps a little 'blush' on the cheeks and enhancing the eyes many times make a girl a knock out!!!

Joshydavid25 · Answer

Just a little makeup is fine.. I don't expect women not to wear any makeup.. Caked on is fine too as long as I know what she looks like under the mask..

LifeHitMeandRan · Answer

Little to no make up is desirable. Too much make up comes off as false advertising... Scam.

Zoommergal · Answer

Whatever attracts him, probably just a bit is good. But most guys literally dont care once you're dating, and a lot don't otherwise either. Just do what you're comfortable with and what you like!

bddddd · Answer

I like women. I don't understand why you would plaster your face with things that make you look less like a woman. My $0,02.

Anonymous · Answer

Never heavy makeup. Light, tastefully done makeup is great for when she is in public, at work or on a date. But I much prefer my wife with no makeup at all at home. To me, she is at her most beautiful right when she wakes up.

Mac-One · Answer

Natural with possibly just neutral lipstick and nail polish.

DeepInsideJLOPEZAZZ · Answer

IF the girl has a pretty face... angelic like... or even just pretty then it's best with no makeup. Tons of makeup looks fake and doesn't make us as horny. We like things more natural and girl next door looking. Most guys anyway.
