The power of make-up (very interesting and funny)

I just ran across this series of pictures. And although it ends in a joke it still make me think about how many 'fake' women are out there. And how easy it is for women to make themselves so different in appearance to their actual self. Not to say men are any better, they just don't tend to wear makeup haha

I thought 3, 6, 8, and 11 were pretty good-looking before the makeup.
I do find it pretty funny when guys are always fawning over these porn star looking chicks with super super heavy makeup. All I'm thinking is, "You would probably not be in love with her without all the art on her face."
Personally, I think that all beauty pageants should have a rule... that none of the contestants should be allowed to apply barely any makeup at all. The problem is you are cheating when you cake on 5lbs of makeup for something like that. You are not going in with your true face, but a slightly modified version of it.
I'm aware of the power of makeup, I've done photography work and always had a makeup artist that would change the look drastically from the subject's original state. Interesting random observation about models: Most of them have TERRIBLE skin.
I really wish magazines and media would just put people's natural state on, instead of applying all this makeup and photoshop to make you look super-human. Because nobody can possibly look like that 24/7, it's just not possible.
I personally never wear eyeliner or anything on my lips, especially for everyday wear. I also don't wear a lot when I'm going out on dates, because I don't want to end up with a guy who ends up being horrified or sees how different I look once he sees me without makeup. But I actually get quite a lot of compliments from men when I go out with them, and they can see what I look like without very much makeup on.
Here are some porn stars without makeup:

But probably the best makeup artist I've ever seen hands down was this. I'd like to hire her for my wedding!

I've always thought the same thing, but then I've never dated someone as ugly as the women in those photos.
Some people really need it. 
A few of them aren't actually bad looking.
The rest, Jesus fucking Christ what a trainwreck of a face.

I also feel like the power of photoshop a little bit for some of those. Face proportions change and I'm pretty sure make-up can't do that.

Ohhhh the great make-up debate.
Would you guys date a girl who looked like some of those women without her make-up on?
If yes, would you want her to wear make-up to improve her looks or would you walk around holding her hand, proud and happy to show the world that she is your awesome girlfriend?
Or should these trainwreck women just be cast aside to make way for more naturally beautiful women for you to procreate with?
What do you do when you just didn't get lucky in the genetic lottery?
Why is there so much negativity associated with make-up? I can understand feeling sort of cheated because the package looked so good on the outside but not so much when unwrapped. But I don't know, it seems to me like wearing make-up is a sign that you're concerned with improving your appearance, which I associate with taking care of oneself, which is a good thing. Comparable to going to the gym and maintaining good hygeine, wearing clothing that flatters you and whatnot. It shows that you care enough to make yourself look presentable. Who wants to be with someone who just doesn't give a fuck if they look nice or not?
This is making me want to research the history of how women got started wearing make-up and why. It would be interesting to know their reasoning for wearing it. There was a debate about this subject in the Ladies forum and most ladies that responded who wear make-up said that they wear it for themselves to either improve their appearance or because they just like some extra pizazz once in awhile. I wonder how many women feel pressured to wear make-up because they feel like men would consider them a trainwreck and un-dateable if they didn't?

Then why do some of you wonder why so many girls cake on the make-up? It is knowing the truth--that many guys wouldn't give them the time of day if they saw their real face--that makes them feel that they have to put on a mask so to speak, just to find a mate.
Now obviously I am just generalizing as there are always exceptions, but I am just saying that the opinions of society and media do influence the way that people choose to present themselves.
It kind of seems like a damned if you do, damned if you don't situation to me.

Some of those girls' faces just look unhealthy. They have sunken cheeks and eyelids and lips like they have spent a solid little chunk of their lives overindulging in stimulants. I believe that looking healthy = looking beautiful. If you are healthy, you physical appearance will give off healthy, positive energy---there is no need for make-up.

It's not just in regards to makeup - there's tons of negativity to go around simply regarding women here. Unless you are willing to post tits on command.
Guys in general seem to praise Mila Kunis. Have you seen the photos of her without makeup? Would you all still be so hot for her if she looked like that in all her movies?
How many women posted in the naked women thread don't have makeup?
Those here that spout "natural is best" - do that apply to pubic hair too?
And for those who are probably thinking I'm one of those fake chicks - nope - I maybe wear makeup once a month at most and even then, it's very little.
Some girls want to wear makeup, some don't. Whatever. Live and let live.

Seriously, some of them are pretty mangy looking and I still think most of them look better without makeup.
Ballerium, if it makes you feel better, from a man's perspective I can't even understand a lot of guys' sense of attraction. Sometimes I think they don't know what they want or what they are missing, but maybe that's egotistical of me.
Anyway, you have nothing to worry about. I've seen your pictures, it doesn't seem like you overdo the makeup and you are very pretty.

Thanks for the compliment. It's not so much that I am concerned about my own appearance. I do wear make-up but mostly on my eyes, and some mineral powder to even out my skin tone because I do not have perfect skin.
It just surprises me that men wonder why so many women wear make-up because it seems like a no-brainer to me. Everyone wants to be attractive and if anything, I feel that women are more pressured to be attractive than men are.
I also think that a lot of men's dislike for make-up comes from seeing women with overly caked-on make-up with bright lipstick and gaudy eyeshadow to match. Guys seem to like that understated natural look which can easily be achieved with make-up, and most guys would be none the wiser.

I know what you mean. I won't say that I never enjoy the look of makeup, it can be done artfully. But, especially when I really like or love a girl, I prefer to see her true face. Loving someone tends to make them glow in my eyes, no matter their physical appearance. I guess it's unfortunate that so much rides on initial attraction, then.

My girlfriend doesn't wear any make up and I think that's awesome! Make up can be a huge turn off for me. I think I've only seen her with make up on once, and that for our first date. And it was only "cat eyes" that were super sexy.

I think this is an important statement. I've noticed when most men state their distain for makeup its not makeup in general. Its when women turn themselves into someone they;re not. Theres a huge difference between caking on make up to the point where you look like a different person (see original pictures), and using makeup to accentuate what you already have.

The fact is that you are hiding the truth. The truth is that I have a pimple. If someone is that shallow to reject me based on that then fuck them. Id rather someone like me for my mind than my looks. This is me, these are my scars, these are my imperfections. Love me or leave me alone PEACE.

I'm not a make up hater, but I do think a lot of these girls are very pretty without it. Most of them just look like they could use some sleep and a healthier diet (Granted, I don't actually know what they're eating, but legit food will work wonders for your skin).
Make-up, imo, can't make an ugly face pretty, but it can cover up the signs that a person isn't taking very good care of themselves. A person isn't ugly or shallow because they wear it, but it's sort of a... "beauty shortcut" if that makes any sense. Like painting over a crack in the wall rather than repairing the wall.

I mean yeah, there are plenty of male models that look good. I don't disagree with you there. But why do women generally spend more time getting ready to go out somewhere than men do? If men wanted to, I'm sure there are plenty of things that they could spend time doing to add some pizazz to their appearance. But most of them don't, unless they are like metrosexual or something. Why are women the ones you always hear about taking forever in the bathroom to get ready?
We generally have longer hair which can take longer to style, for one thing. But then you have other cosmetic things like make-up, and having to keep pretty much all hair below the neck shaved or trimmed. Most guys don't do those things because why would they? There's no societal standard that makes men feel pressured to shave off all their body hair or have a pretty face and perfect complexion. You don't see guys rushing into the stores buying the latest skin care products.
Its things like those that make me feel like women are more pressured to make themselves look attractive. Guys can get away with more in that regard, IMO.

Is time spent at the gym not time spent working to improve one's attractiveness? How about time spent working working working to afford the nice suit and the cool car and the expensive watch?
You really think men don't get sized up based on their appearance as much as women?

Sure going to the gym counts. But women go to the gym too. I am pointing out things that women do that men do not, in order to strengthen my argument.
Women also work to afford their nice clothes and jewelry too.

The difference between male and female standards of beauty, is that males don't feel like they have to completely change their looks, or be completely different from their natural state, in order to get a woman. Going to the gym improves the actual you. Wearing false eyelashes, eyeliner, lipstick, hair extensions, and breast implants uses fake things to completely alter your looks.

There is no societal pressure for guys to look like anything because guys don't respond to it.
The reason: we don't look at other men.
Ever noticed how guys have a hard time judging the looks of another guy? That we struggle to come up with a verdict on how attractive another dude is?
We are not wired to care about or pay attention to other dudes.
It's this testosterone thing that drives us to dominate and think we are better than other men who are all douchebags. Call it arogance... it's a blessing.

We size up the competition, look at health, how built they are, how good of a 'provider' they are, who would win between you and him in a fight, etc. Maybe not consciously, but subconsciously all men pay attention to that type of stuff.

I agree with the points you make. None of them are based on looks though. Providing & strength type of stuff. That's probably why some dudes are sensitive to the muscle race. Protein shake it baby.

It's not:
"I want my biceps to be as well looking as his"
It's:
"I want to bench press more than him and beat him in a boxing match"

Really? I find it pretty hard to believe that most men are incapable of telling an attractive from an unattractive man. I do believe that many men are far too homophobic to admit that another man is attractive, however.
Sure, I might not be able to tell a 6.5 from a 7, but I can put them in the ballpark. Same as straight women with other women I'm sure. Not to mention that attraction is so subjective in the first place.

yea i can almost promise most men have no problem judging the attractiveness of other men. A lot of men just happen to be insecure in their own sexuality and think that recognizing an attractive man makes them "gay".

It's easy to spot hot people and ugly people no matter the sex.
Then again, in the end its all a matter of taste and opinion

It's this testosterone thing that drives us to dominate and think we are better than other men who are all douchebags. Call it arogance... it's a blessing.
Sorry but that is BS. For starters in latino culture men exhibit high testosterone fueled "machismo," and they care about their looks, their bodies, their tan, and their hair.
Also in ancient athens, men were bi and considered the primary objects of beauty. Men back then probably had higher testosterone levels than the men of today. Estrogen levels among men are high today in our society.
Know how else its bs? Cause every single man can tell when a guys ugly. They're simply too insecure and jealous to admit when they're good looking

I don't know, I've been told I'm ugly, average, and very handsome by girls my age. I see myself as myself. I can't distinguish my friends who are better looking than I because, shit, usually I feel I'm better looking. For instance, I actually brush my teeth very often, floss constantly, lift weights etc. I got a small lazy eye but fuck it, I just don't look to the right too often and it hides it.
I know to judge a good looking guy based on how often women oggle at him. I don't exactly see it right away. It's only after seeing these bitches get all emotional or wet over some dude that I know to emulate that. My famous "I live with this girl" who seriously just looks at guys all the time and says which guys are hot or cute. Gets annoying as hell hearing it daily but truthfully, it helps me to know what to try to fix.
Now, this same girl puts a SHIT TON of makeup on. I made a thread saying she looked like helga from hey-arnold and I stick by that. However, she puts so much makeup on for things like church that she looks like she's finna make some porn.
I, personally, would not date this girl mostly cus her fucked up, vapid way of doing things but even if I liked her a bit, I still say a more natural way of doing things is better. That applies to pubes as someone stated. Eating better, sunlight, exercise should all be routes to choose before any makeup/surgery. It's what I do and I feel better earning something.
Shit... this girl just came home making weird baby voices for her dogs and cat. She fucking kisses her cat before she leaves every morning. I need a irlfriend quick.

And what's wrong with that? It's weird she loves her animals? Seems pretty normal to me. I would probably do the same if I had a cat or dog

Are you saying you can't tell if any of the Chippendale's guys are good looking?
I mean, clearly you are into working out, and you stated that you admired Arnold's looks, clearly there's a standard of beauty that you have for males too.

Yeah I mean I know when dudes could probably slay any pussy they wanted, and I see muscles as the epitome of dedication and hard work. Both of which eluded me in high school and so I make up for it now. But even then, it was usually an objective trip that made my body look too small and thus... I began a transormation into a majestic butterfly or some shit

Same here. Even for women, I think women who look athletic and muscular are the best-looking women. I don't find porn star type girls very attractive, all voluptuous with huge fake boobs and blonde with lots of plastic surgery. I also don't find curvy "thick" women to be the most appealing. I'm also not impressed by model-looking women who stay very thin and petite and frail-looking. I think women who have muscle and are athletic (but while still retaining their femininity), like your typical fitness model, look the best.

Why is there so much negativity associated with make-up?
It's not just in regards to makeup - there's tons of negativity to go around simply regarding women here. Unless you are willing to post tits on command.
Guys in general seem to praise Mila Kunis. Have you seen the photos of her without makeup? Would you all still be so hot for her if she looked like that in all her movies?
How many women posted in the naked women thread don't have makeup?
Those here that spout "natural is best" - do that apply to pubic hair too?
And for those who are probably thinking I'm one of those fake chicks - nope - I maybe wear makeup once a month at most and even then, it's very little.
Some girls want to wear makeup, some don't. Whatever. Live and let live.
You have got to be kidding me...
I don't think there's that much negativity towards woman in general here.
Also unless you post tits on demand, really? You've got to be kidding me.
I know many wonderful female posters here, and I've only seen the tits of like two of them people, and that holds no bearing on how I view someone.
And yeah, a lot of guys here do like pubic hair for some reason, I personally do not.

I personally think completely shaved pubic hair doesn't look right on adult women. Especially adult women who are petite, and more flat-chested. It makes them look pre-pubescent, like little adolescent girls or something. Deliberately looking puerile is just..... creepy.
