Ever know anyone (female) who looks better without makeup?

Asked by Jude (32198points) January 5th, 2011

A friend of mine, she is stunning without makeup. With? Not as pretty, which I find odd.

You?

Yes. My friend Susan looks much better without makeup. When she wears it, it’s more like decoration than anything. Like taking a Tiffany’s box and then adding a ribbon and bow. Just not necessary.

I think a woman without makeup can be more beautiful as in their natural beauty. I do also appreciate a well applied bit of makeup when she is all dolled up. ;)

@Cruiser I agree. :) When my girlfriend goes au natural, I find her sexy as hell and want to eat her up. Her hair pulled back, and a fresh clean face; very sexy. :)

Yes, my wife. She has a natural beauty that makeup generally gets in the way of.

Of course, she, like most women, applies a bit of base to smooth out the complexion (even though she has great skin), but for the most part only applies the extras like lipstick and eye liner for very formal occasions and almost never applies the “war paint”, unless, of course, she is doing a belly dance show (an ongoing hobby for more years than she would care to admit to).

If it’s the right product, no. I think some people may not know what to buy for their face, making them look better when they just use none.

Yeah the wife! Cheesy but oh so true. Luckily she doesn’t wear all that much anyway, don’t need it.

My cousin certainly looks more beautiful and natural of course without make up.
She has lots of freckles which look so cute, but she always covers them up with lots of foundation which looks awful.

More often than not I find make up to be unnecessary and unattractive. A tiny amount sometimes is nice, but typically I favor nothing.

Milo here: If Gail paints her face (which she does rarely thank goodness), I refuse to escort her anywhere unless she removes the stuff.

All women look better without make up on. I reckon.

There is a tendency for some women I know to go over the top with make up, it’s the fashion you see!? :-/
Kate Price syndrome I call it, they really do look much better without the slap! but try telling them!! :-/
Besides it’s a nightmare to get off my pillow cases!! :-/

I know lots and lots of women who look better without makeup for several reasons:

People with freckles like me look dusty or stuccoed if we put on foundation.

People with fine lines, makeup makes those stand out.

Women with “baby” faces, they look better without foundation or standout eyeliner… unless they want to look like porn actresses.

Women who wear a foundation a different tone than their natural skin shade and you can see their neck and/or chest skin contrast against the face skin.

I think women with make up look like (expletive omitted).

My daughter is extremely beautiful without makeup. She’s just at an age now where she is experimenting with makeup but I think she looks better without it.
