I've yet to meet such a person. I've seen women who look great with makeup and pretty good without it, or so-so with it and gross without it, but never great with it and gross without it. Unless they have a Hollywood makeup team spending hours on them per day, that just doesn't happen, and even then it's rare.

It's telling that you apparently view sex as something one person "gives" to the other rather than something two people share together because they both enjoy it. If my partner was sexually withdrawing, I'd want to address it and for us to come up with some kind of compromise or solution. Ultimately, though, if we weren't sexually compatible in the long run, I would see that as reason to end the relationship, for sure.

I've made it a point never to wear makeup (except for some bb cream) on the first date.

That might actually explain the lack of dates after that....

I just don't want any nasty surprises and I want to present myself as naturally as possible. No 'shapewear', no makeup, my hair as close to natural as possible etc. If he doesn't like it, that's his problem.

As for the sex stuff, there's almost always a reason sex drops off after marriage and I would work really hard to figure out why and then try to fix it.

In my experience, if a woman looks "gross" without makeup, she doesn't look that great with makeup.

I think it usually is women who withdraw sex after marriage simply because SOME women's sex drive is not as high as men.
Typically not the case in my household...the last couple years I've been the horny one...

I'll chime in here- I am one of those girls who looks like a totally different person when my hair and makeup are done. Like, you wouldn't even recognize the before and after. I don't wear heavy makeup (as seems to be the assumption on here). Rather, I wear professional makeup I spent a LOT of money on. Think Chanel, Laura Mercier, the best Kevyn Aucoin brushes. Fake lashes, etc. I spend 45 minutes every day on it in front of a magnified, lit mirror. I also wear clip in extensions. Spend another 45-1 hour+ a day on that. The first time my guy saw me natural and bare-faced I was so scared. But he loves me either way. Some guys are into the natural thing... mine likes me and accepts me as a high maintenance type. If a man is mature, he should know what he's getting himself into. I'm not ugly without makeup, just incredibly plain. He knows the only time he's going to see me like that is when we are alone in the very late and early hours. And is smart enough to know any of the celebs you see are pretty much the same way. I'm the one that always wants the light turned off. He's always like "Baby, turn it back ON!".

Probably not!
Why does he tell them?

Some of those pics I see of celebrities with no make up is shocking at how plain and sometimes downright homely looking some of them thar ladies look. I saw a pic of Adele recently and while she's still an attractive woman, I wouldn't have recognized her if I saw her on the street though, looks very different without the war paint on.

If I were a guy, plain without make up yes, gross no.
No sex after marriage, depends on the cause but no.

A. She needs to look just as good without makeup if she is going to use it.

B. I would divorce in a heartbeat. Who gets married to not have sex?
