Essentially, the dark eyes. The eyes are the most imporant part of it all.

I love girls with very little makeup, or at least seeming like they do.

That and black lipstick. MMMMM

Church 02-26-2004 06:43 PM

I like the 'light' goth look. Other than that, for sure the eyes, I don't like a lot of makeup, but eyes are one of the first things I notice on a girl, and if I can fall into them, then I'm all hers.

Ustwo 02-26-2004 06:46 PM

None.

If they don't look good without makeup I don't want them.

i8one2 02-26-2004 06:49 PM

Goth! Black hair(colored) with straight bangs, red lips, piercings, and pale complexion

Or straight, black and white stuff.

sapiens 02-26-2004 06:57 PM

I guess I don't pay enough attention to makeup to pick a favorite style. That said, I find women who look attractive without makeup or women who wear makeup, but it is so seamless that you don't notice.

I have to agree that I prefer girls with little to no makeup. I tend to find that a lot of makeup will usually look bad or at least detract from the natural beauty of a person.

Holo 02-26-2004 06:59 PM

Eyeliner, understated eye shadow, and bright red lipstick provided it matches.

JStrider 02-26-2004 07:12 PM

if i notice a girls make up its too much!

its hard to say exactly how i like it... it should enhance whats already there...

kurty[B] 02-26-2004 07:33 PM

Subtlety is what I like. Raccoon eyes are disgusting, but shaded eyes are great. Basically I like eyes a lot, so if make-up brings attention to them that's good! But too much and the attention gets drawn to the make-up and not the eyes themselves.

I just don't like circus clowns... That's really what it comes down to.

soccerchamp76 02-26-2004 07:41 PM

Too much is definitely bad.
I am not a fan of lipstick as much as lip gloss. Bright red lips are not as appealing as natural shiny lips.

But the eyes are #1 and are the first thing I notice.

World's King 02-26-2004 07:50 PM

Simple.

nothingx 02-26-2004 07:57 PM

None for me. I hate that shit. Sometimes my girlfriend experiments with eye makeup and such, but I don't like it....

... so says the guy with the white face and black lipstick ...

SecretMethod70 02-26-2004 08:52 PM

Well, for me, there are two answers to this question...

Essentially, none. On the base of it, I find makeup to be extremely artifical looking and senseless, not to mention that someone wearing it every day screams low self-esteem to me or, at the very least, so little self-awareness so as to not recognize that they can, in most cases, look just fine while rejecting the socialization that has been thrust upon them.

So, when looking for a girl, I'm looking for someone who doesn't wear makeup often. Someone who not even once says that they have to put on their makeup to do something.

There are a few key elements to my consideration of makeup in this regard then. First, is that makeup when worn should never be "not noticable." Makeup that is "not noticable" is the equivalent of using it to cover up perceived flaws, otherwise where is the need to wear it in a style that is not readily apparent? I don't like makeup ever used to cover up "flaws" but only, when worn, to enhance, or create an "image."

Then, there is the fact that some items of makeup I don't like at all. One, is any sort of base or foundation. There are essentially 2 reasons to this one. First, there is no use for it besides "covering up." The only way in which to wear it in accordance with my first consideration of makeup - being intentionally noticable - is to wear something like white foundation. *shrug* if someone wants to do that that's fine, but I don't find that attractive and there's also the problem of the second reason of disliking foundation: why would I want to kiss makeup? When I kiss a gil, I want to feel - physically and intellectually - that I am kissing HER not the makeup she's wearing. So, while foundation IMO shouldn't be "not noticable," there's a problem if it's noticable too, so I'm always against the foundation.

Eyebrow pencils: no. Looks tacky first of all, looks just plain stupid second of all, and really, I don't even fathom the point of it.

So, what DO I like with makeup? Well, I DEFINITELY DEFINITELY like the dark eyes. They rock. It's not makeup worn to make up for some perceived flaw in the length of eyelashes or anything like that, it is worn specifically for the sake of itself. In this sense, it becomes more like clothing than makeup. And I think it looks sexy. Looks best with black or dark brunette hair, but also looks really good with very light blonde hair.

Second to the very dark eyes is colored eyes. Green and purple are both cool colors for this. Example: Marion in Requiem for a Dream. Her eye makeup if I remember correctly was quite cool in some scenes in that movie.

As for lipstick, I'm not generally a big fan of lipstick and I really only would like it when someone is going that extra step to look really made up. Probably the only circumstances I'd like lipstick is something like clubbing, where everyone essentially works hard to look their sluttiest/sexiest (depending on different people's interpretations) or if you're just putting it on for a special wild night with a significant other. Lipstick in everyday ocurances I'm definitely not down with and, even in formal situations, I find it totally unnecessary.

Lip gloss I am much more leniant on. It can look equally as sexy - and many times even moreso - than lipstick in those situations mentioned above, AND I think it's fine for everyday life as well. Lip gloss is just more laid back to me, so I find it much easier to accept looking at it. Not to mention it's shiny :p

That's essentially it though. Lip gloss and heavy eye makeup. Anything else is unnecessary/unattractive IMO.

They key to all this of course is that the girl doesn't wear makeup more often than she does. Makeup is something I look at to be used specifically for a noticable, artifical, play into a particular image one is going for. So, in most cases, it's not preferable, but it's great for that every now and then that you're planning on particularly getting someone's "engines" going or even going out and showing yourself off to other people. I guess you could sum it up in the idea that I don't think makeup is something that should be a part of everyday life as much as it should be something more like having a little "dress up" fun :lol:

Give this man a prize. :) Hoorah for that style.

ReggErving 02-26-2004 09:08 PM

Less is the best to me. I like the fact that a woman can look graet without the crap on. This isn't to say that women don't improve their lokos with it because many do, I just appreciate a woman that doesn't need alot of it.

Amen to that.
Makeup is often used to conceal "flaws" when instead it should be used to enhance the natrual beauty. Artificial beauty is not desireable only natural is. (to me that is)

soccerchamp76 02-26-2004 09:59 PM

That is why I am a big fan of the dark eye makeup. It is used to enhance the image of a girl and give her an extra "sexy" image but is not used to cover up anything.

sailor 02-26-2004 10:00 PM

If I can notice it, its too much.

Are you sure the thong didn't have someting to do with it? :D

As a girl...i like other girls wearing very little make up. nice pink lip gloss, a lil blush, and minimal eye make up.

Sometimes it's cool to see girls get creative too by the use of eye liners and what not a la "goth" style.

In pictures and on tv though, make up is a different story.

Exactly. :D

And pink lip gloss rocks too :D

Kllr Wolf 02-26-2004 10:29 PM

I like them to wear makeup that is not noticable or no makeup.

analog 02-26-2004 11:21 PM

*ahem*

GOTH! :)

or

None (little as possible).

I'm with you, I never liked the blond bimbo/tons of makup look.

Anything that looks like this is ok with me though. ;):

Mmmmm... Adriana Lima...

bermuDa 02-27-2004 12:01 AM

none, or very little. makeup should accentuate what's already there, not make a whole new person. If that's what the person is going for then I won't stop them, but I don't find that attractive.

PredeconInferno 02-27-2004 12:23 AM

I always enjoyed very subtle makeup.

never that gaudy crap. ick

CinnamonGirl 02-27-2004 02:09 AM

No makeup...natural is definitely better.

I DO like green eyeliner, though...

losthellhound 02-27-2004 02:32 AM

I agree with Ustwo (damn *g*)

none

Lebell 02-27-2004 03:23 AM

For company or going out: simple and to the point.

For sex: trashy, veery trashy :D

*sigh* Lebell, you said it far more clear and concise than I ever could have. Thanks :) (although, I'd go so far as to say none for company or going out in most cases)

Amen to this, but... Depends on the girls style, I also love the goth look, the preppy look, etc. Perfer as little make up as possible, but sometimes the total style is really cool.

My wife tends to wear nothing, I mean no make up, and I'm totally cool with that!

Destrox 02-27-2004 08:54 AM

LIttle to none, why delay disapointment?

WarWagon 02-27-2004 09:01 AM

As little as possible. I do like it if a girl has beautiful eyes and uses a little eyeliner and such, but aside from that, if I'm remotely interested, then they're good looking enough already.

Bleed Me Dry 02-27-2004 05:00 PM

It depends on the situation. Sometimes light make-up is better, then again I kinda like the smokey-eyed trashy look too.

Well said - less is more.

mystmarimatt 02-27-2004 10:14 PM

Depends. too much is obvious, but on some girls, it can make them even more pretty, on some girls, it detracts, and they should wear none. there's no one style i like, it's really up to them.

bigbad 02-27-2004 10:44 PM

I prefer a little makeup, not much though, I got a real softspot for pink lipstick though.

TopRamen66 02-27-2004 11:06 PM

If makeup is the first thing that I notice about the girl, its too much. Subtle is the way to go. And yes, eyes are key.

Boo 02-27-2004 11:15 PM

Very little or none for my vote.

A little lip gloss, nice tweezed brows, no facial hair except the peach fuzz and nice skin = yummy.

BoomTruck 02-29-2004 06:20 PM

Minimal.

I knew a girl that went for the Tammy Faye Baker "tropical fish in 20 minutes" makeup look. That will make you very not fond of makeup in a hurry.
