I get hit on most by guys out running errands after playing tennis, riding my horse, or going to the gym. AKA sweaty, gross, and no makeup on. SO I cant say I agree with the above.
The flapper era, which is what I have been speaking of, was synonymous with the 20s and Prohibition, raised hemlines, rolled stockings, a bound bust, dropped waists and gossamer, sleeveless dresses.
I am really not sure what the heck you are talking about.
1890s Belle Epoque has nothing to do with it.
Ah! Kshe95girl! She can steal my heart without make up!!
exactly!! rep. you do get treated different for not wearing it. i don't wear it most of my life and notice this but yet the male still will claim they like 'fresh face, no make up!' yea right. also they do act all crazy over the heavily done up girls. seen it myself.
it's a shame you will wear something that irritate your skin just so guys don't treat you differently. frankly i don't see how they're even worth all of that.
Well to gym I wear no makeup or just eye makeup as the foundation and such just rolls right off with the sweat. lol But then if I stop in store afterwards I get treated like dirt by other women. To be honest I feel makeup on women is more to get acceptance from other women. Heaven forbid you don't wear it to a doctor appointment or job interview or else you get treated like a low-life by the staff. The article I read recently from CNN I think stated women are viewed as less professional and unintelligent if they don't wear makeup to work.
I will easily pass up a Woman donning make-up for someone without. I'm not fond of surprises
Point and Case; During exams My PROM date passed by in the hallway and I thought my gosh that girl looks odd.
moments later she blups my name in disbelief I did not notice her, totally
unclear who she was for nearly 2 mins. She was extremely hurt!
She never once looked like a clown; her makeup appeared natural.
Point I'm just not a fan with makeup.

That is odd being most bimbos I have come across bathe their face with tons of make-up.
I wear makeup (not clownish) and am happy with it, or without it. It's fine that some men hate makeup. They need to go for the girls who don't wear any. I'll continue to wear mine. I just like it; it's fun, it's creative.
Some women need makeup to cover up discolorations. Not everyone is born with an even skin tone. If these women were to go without it, then men would complain about how rough and dog ugly they were. I think men should not dictate what a woman should and shouldn't put on her face.
I've seen before-and-after photos in magazines of women with and without makeup, and I always think the "before" photos show the women as much more personable and approachable. Their personality and warmth shows more. The mask masks that, and seems to put up a subtle barrier between her and the world.
No one in my neighborhood, adult or teen, nor in my extended family, ever wore make-up, except lipstick for special occasions. It wasn't part of the culture. Make-up for mass consumption didn't exist until around the 50's sometime, when Max Factor adapted Hollywood make-up supplies for the general consumer. It took awhile to catch on in some circles. It wasn't approved of, it was considered more a tool of the trade of women who sell themselves, there was a stigma. California beach culture was more about a healthy natural look, and a tan (not too healthy, though no one knew at the time).
