What do you think about men wearing makeup?

[Daniel3035]

Before I start i'll just say this make up was primarily invented for men before women used it.
So on special occasions I wear kind of make up for stuff like weddings (wasn't my choice at first it was part of a package or something but it kinda started from this) etc. The idea came from male celebrities who wear make up before going on Tv etc too.
But I don't contour my entire face or use lip gloss or mascara etc it's just the the odd bit of makeup under the dark circles of the eyes or that sort of thing.
Opinions?

[fauchelevent]

Meh, I don't care much... I don't think I'd find it all that appealing if the dude was countoured and had lipstick and mascara and eyeshadow and stuff on since I don't even do any of that for myself, it'd be a little too odd for me. Stuff like make up for dark circles and stuff like that is totally cool.

[Sunburst223]

Honestly? I don't think it's a huge deal. It can look odd, since it's not what I'm used to seeing, but there is no reason why men should not wear makeup. There have certainly been times throughout history where it even used to be a relatively common thing that men did.

[RJGraveyTrain]

I mean, if it's just to cover dark circles I could live with that. But if he starts filling in his brows and high lighting his cheeks that could get weird. I still feel a touch weird about it just because of how I was raised I guess but it wouldn't be world ending.

They can use like sunscreen and wrinkle creams , moisturizers all that is fine...
but real make up it's a little creepy because m then I'm going to compete with a guy who does the best makeup ne or him! Lol

[Daniel3035]

Well we have centuries of experience in our DNA so

[Opinion Owner]

I think as long as you keep it natural is fine
But I don't like let's say pink blushing or red lipsticks or heavy mascara I mean stuff that girls do that's a no.

[Daniel3035]

No no not like that no lip gloss or madcara just look at men on tv shows that's pretty much it

[Opinion Owner]

Then that's fine. Totally normal I would really like if a guy I date would do that it means you are neat And care!
Also in Asia that's totally normal but for some reasons guys in Europe and USA are still primitive. Lol looking like Godzilla and such

[Opinion Owner]

Oh and that's true not only make up was invented for man and for the richbut also heels too... nowadays it's only proper for women but years ago high class man used to wear heels!!

[MackFreeze]

Well here's the thing, women or male makeup? If it's a man using women makeup then no way. I don't think me should wear eye shadow, fake eyelashes, lip liner, etc.

Male makeup? Sure, but I wouldn't join you. Maybe face paint I would be cool with. Makeup, too much work for a lick of a difference

[Daniel3035]

Well womens makeup is male makeup it's universal tbh

[Cryostatic]

I don't know, I mean, literally every man you've ever seen in any modern television show or movie was wearing some form of makeup.

Can't be that bad, right?

[Daniel3035]

It's ok/good tbh I don't think much of it. But I sort of feel like I shouldn't allow something made for us initially go to waste but i'm not going go looking like a painted doll sort of speak.

[Cryostatic]

Well, clearly nobody wants to see a man walking around like a 17th century French noble with a powdercake face and fake mole, but I don't see there being anything wrong with using it to say, hide blemishes or even out your skin tone.

[Daniel3035]

Yh exactly. 😂 reminds me of barbossa from pirates of the Caribbean. I'm happy with it it's just because other people may see it I was wondering what they thought.

[gayaf]

I think it's incredible. It isn't a new or revolutionary concept either. Men throughout history have worn makeup, dresses and even pink (gasp!) Makeup is simply art and self-expression. If a person doesn't like it, they don't have to look.

[Daniel3035]

MHO for you

[gayaf]

MHO?

[Daniel3035]

Most honest answer

[splashofyellow]

I think men have just as much of a right to wear make up as women do. Knock yourself out.

[Emij97]

No, total turn off for me. I like manly guys/natural... i think make-up on guys is kinda creepy🙈🙈sorry

[Daniel3035]

It's not for turning on girls just for special occasions

[Emij97]

Hmmm you know. To hide blemishes or something okay... but like really heavy make-up... I just don't like it... maybe it's just because I'm not used to it? Just not my cup of tea...

[Daniel3035]

Not heavy make up just imagine celebrities on tv shows that kind of thing

[j_lima96]

straight guys? no
gay guys/trans/drag? sure

I will never wear makeup. I was in a school play in 10th grade and they tried to get me to put eyeliner on. I almost fought everyone in the dressing room

[Alexgagnon]

when the stars put on make up. it's not light eh. they use the same amount on women too.
And makeup on anyone is not good

[Daniel3035]

The women disagree.
I'd say thanks for your opinion but it's clearly biased.

[xerosagas]

I don't wear it except for Halloween costumes but I don't particularly care if other men do or not.
I'll make fun of it if it looks bad - I do the same with women.

[AdamThomas]

Make-up is for women. I look naturally beautiful anyway.

[Daniel3035]

Check again just saying

[AdamThomas]

I just checked again - I'd still fuck me if I was a woman.

[Daniel3035]

Make up was initially made for men

[AdamThomas]

Gay men.

[Daniel3035]

No just men 😕

[AdamThomas]

Ok, men in the closet.

[Daniel3035]

Men in public imagine barbossa with makeup

[TheOriginalCris]

Makeup is for girls. Always has been. Just like hair buns and tights. But some guys just don't get that sadly...

[zagor]

People on TV have to wear makeup or the light makes them look like crap. In day to day life, I see no point in it.

[Anonymous]

as long as you don't look gay, trans, etc and still look like a guy, I'm alright with it but prefer if they didn't

[Anonymous]

I was messing with a guy who would contour use blush and mascara. Kinda freaked me out. He was a douche tho.

[Daniel3035]

I'd never use mascara my eyelashes are long enough

[Opinion Owner]

Mine too

[TheChocolateWriter]

A bit uncomfortable, but then again, most stars wear makeup, so...

[Blitzkrieger]

Its a waste of time and money fo both men and women.

[Anonymous]

Yeah. It's a bit difficult to find a good match of garments for my red glossy lipstick...

[Daniel3035]

Read the question lazy

[Opinion Owner]

I did, I'm just a troll. But it does sound a bit weird to me tbh

[Daniel3035]

At 30ish?
It may sound weird but then again it's only weird until everyone says it ok then it's normal. But thats what people did in the past

[Opinion Owner]

That age was random, I'm much younger. At any rate you have my opinion

[ANITIMA]

for the camera, most definitely.
everyday life, maybe not so much
girlfriend playing around, anytime

[Blueymusic]

What? No. Non-appealing. Gross. WRONG.

[Daniel3035]

Why?

[momo770]

what do u mean it was part of a package?

[Daniel3035]

Just part of the wedding for those who are walking out holding the rings etc

[momo770]

I've never been 2 a wedding (10) where men have 2 wear make-up. If it's your thing, just own it.

[Daniel3035]

It's not have to but the wedding reception had a package where they had stylists who would do makeup for those walking out women and men and hair and everything.

[momo770]

Oh, gotcha. so u like it?

[Daniel3035]

Umm I kinda do but i'm pretty neutral about it. It's more the benefits of using it for pictures and stuff. I'd do it from time to time but not everyday.

[momo770]

ok, tc:)

[Daniel3035]

You too 😊

[TacosRAwesome]

If its not noticeable I don't mind it.

[Lumberman53]

I think it's disgusting

[Anonymous]
