Women wear make up for different reasons. Others are for costume parties, others to hide some beauty spots or the disguise the deepening lines and wrinkles. There are also those who want to add to add color to their pale skin, so they add some blush and lipstick or the shimmer of lip gloss. But perhaps the most common underlying reason for wearing cosmetics is to look good.
However, while make-up is a main concern of women, men also have their say on how their women, and women in general, look. So what are the looks that men hate?
1. Heavy foundation or a thick layer of powder. Men find it a turn off when they kiss a woman on the cheek and find that the foundation has stayed on their own cheek. They have the same sentiment on flaking make up.
2. Uneven make-up application. Having uneven skin tone is different than having uneven application of foundation. One man said that it is like the woman applied make-up in the dark.
3. Neon lipstick. A lot of women went neon on their pouts for the holidays but it seems that the men could not accept the unnaturally bright color.
4. Eyebrows that are barely there. No explanation needed.
5. Bold eyeshadow–both in application and color selection.
6. Rosy cheeks.
7. Two-toned lips. This happens when you use a lip liner that is darker than your lip stick.
8. Glitter. Getting glitterized is nice but it should not be too much.
While men like their women to look good even with the help of make-up, it is apparent that they do not like looks that are too unreal.
