A contoured T with a well-fitting pair of jeans would suffice for the guys. I wear very long Indian skirts embellished with mirror bits are worn to impress myself, other women including my female T, those-men-who-appreciate-the-creative-expression-part-of-clothes, and... to be in harmony with the universe! |

Without makeup, she has a lot of raw sexual attractiveness. With makeup, she loses the raw sexual attractiveness but gains the ability to, say, sell shampoo - her hair looks very professional. As someone with naturally curly hair that looks totally different if straightened, I can add that the two pictures above are not just "without makeup" versus "with makeup". It is also "curly" versus "straight" and "curly" vs "straight" is like two different worlds. Not one better than the other but just totally different. |

I have long black eyelashes and do not wear mascara. My younger daughter has very long black eyelashes and does not wear mascara. My older daughter has sparse short light eyelashes (+ blondish sparse eyebrows, too, despite having long dark brown hair) and does wear mascara. Facial features are different and therefore objective needs are different - how can you answer this question with respect to "all women" - as it was asked? |

Jeans is my style!! And right now, it's shorts season. I do have some long flowing summer dresses, and I just appeal to my height and athleticism.

She looks like some dark creature that would eat your face.

Taylor Swift looks like a completely different person without make up, and I don't mean that in a good way, either. In our society, women are told that they HAVE to wear makeup. They are very rarely told to embrace their natural beauty (without the usage of makeup, anyway) because that just isn't good enough. From this, women are crafting completely new faces with cosmetics, soon forgetting the beauty of their bare skin and feeling ashamed when they face it. Makeup can be really wonderful. If can raise confidence and help people express themselves. But makeup is makeup, and that is all it is. We should not forget about the face underneath, even if the powered, lined and glossed one "looks better" or "gets guys".

So basically it's being covered in chemicals to colour, subjected to constant heating to style it, and then subject to more chemicals to keep it all in place. How healthy is it possible for that hair to be? |

I think she looks better with makeup. She looks so strange without it because the colors she chooses are so bold that she doesn't even look the same without makeup. That's when you know you're wearing too much makeup if you look completely unrecognizable.
That's why I don't wear makeup. I got a makeover once from Mary Kay and I thought I looked worse with makeup. It was too bold for me. Every once and a while I'll wear a light eyeshadow or contacts, but guys should like me the way I am, and I'm not someone who wears makeup or contacts. |

Her makeup brings out her cheek bones and makes her face appear thinner and more contoured

It also makes her look non human.
About the hair, she looks like she has the same type of hair as my friend. She is rather kind to her hair but it has always been coarse and with thick hairs. The only thing that softened it has been hair dye. Kind of backwards. __________________ |

Idk if you're asking me this question or everyone? I just responded to another poster who wanted an example of minimal makeup and nude tones look the most natural. Women have been enhancing their faces since the Cleopatra days and before that. Its up to the woman really and hopefully her /her partner can find a common ground. Whether a woman wears it or not isn't important to me. My oldest daughter has spectacular dark lashes but she still likes a bit of mascara but still her lashes look better than women who wear mascara. What bugs me in todays society is the mass lip enhancing - I can understand a little if a woman has super thin or barely any lips.....but these huge lips looks ridiculous on a face that's not structured for duck lips. __________________ This is our little cutie Bella *Practice on-line safety. *Cheaters - collecting jar of hearts. *Make your mess, your message. *"Be the change you want to see" (Gandhi) Last edited by lynn P.; Jun 19, 2013 at 07:06 PM.. |

Also in the past, men wore makeup or face paint. Just saying.

Since there are different faces, different situations, different lighting, and, thus, different needs. I am totally with on the mass lip enhancing. Such lips do look pathetic on a face that is not structured for them. Last edited by hamster-bamster; Jun 20, 2013 at 05:18 PM.. |

I think it's up to the person, really.
I never wore makeup until now that I turned 30 , and now I apply it as another method to strengthen my confidence a bit. I use only very little though, because I don't want to actually earn my confidence from the makeup. It also doesn't change my features much, because generally I'm a very honest person and couldn't bear wearing a face I cannot entirely call mine. But everything depends on the person and what she believes to be appropriate for herself. |

I decided to try wearing contacts and makeup today because my outfit looks amazing and it would look better if I fixed my hair and wore makeup. My makeup is just light eyeshadow, light foundation/blush, and lipstick, but it makes me look so different without going overboard! My eyes stand out and look very blue and vibrant.
So it's not a bad thing to wear makeup, but people tend to not wear makeup correctly and that's why I don't like it. |

On T. Swift .
I think she wears her make up like armor. It is not a natural look, but a mask to present to the world. It's similar to an Maori wearing tattoos on the face. __________________ Nammu …Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself.
