If that was really the case then the vast majority of women wouldn't apply it religiously every day. And please don't tell me that the majority of women don't, because the majority do - whether it's copiously or in smaller amounts.
It's expected of women. (I usually don't bother, unless I'm with a client.)
I love to se women who don't need it still wear makeup anyway because it pushes them to over the top beautiful. The trend I see are the pretty women who don't need it are the ones most likely to still use it while the women who "need it" don't bother.
Jay, we need more guys that think like you do! I totally agree....
I wear makeup but I certainly dont "need" it. I wear it because I feel more polished and I tend to look young for my age so I wear it to look more mature.
Are people here going to tell me it's not plain as the sky that some of these women do look rough?
They look fine to me. When they choose these pictures they usually pick the worst angles and lighting so they can perpetuate the myth that women need makeup to look presentable.
Imagine if men were required to wear makeup, how silly would that be?

The makeup topic comes up quite a bit here. One thing I have not seen many people point out is how makeup can be used to cover up blemishes and scars which would otherwise be distracting. If you were in a car accident and had a scar on your face, or deep dark acne scars, makeup can be useful. People want to know they are looked at, and not their scars. Nothing wrong with that.
Not many folks wear much makeup around here in Hawaii, it's too humid and makeup feels real nasty. We visited the mainland this summer and slathered on the moisturizer and lip balms. If we lived on the mainland, I could see using makeup every day, especially if it had moisturizers in it.
We also have a different social climate. Folks are pretty down to earth around here and if you get too dressed up folks wonder what you're up to. Socially, being humble is valued and it's not humble to dress up and wear a lot of makeup.
Folks are also in and out of the ocean a lot, it's a bit hard to keep on makeup while surfing.
For those who think women don't need to wear makeup look at the pictures of actresses without makeup.The pictures are shocking which is why the tabloids publish them. While its obvious the female celebrities look better with makeup the same could be said for all women.
