definatly depends on the girl and the guy.
I personally think I look good with some make-up on. I don't 'paint' my face though. I rarely wear make-up though. Like someone else said--I hate the 'get ready' process. Not to toot my own horn, but I have fairly even skin tone that's pretty healthy--so if I wear make-up, it's a dusting of blush (because my skin is very fair), some mascara, and a lip gloss. For more 'extravagant' situations I do the whole foundation, eyeliner, lipliner, powder thing--but I always stick with classic colors and don't cake it on. Some women look radient with just a lip gloss and some mascara, some women look great when they do the whole shebang. It really depends on what they look like, what skin tone they have, etc.
It depends on the guy because they all obviously have different perspectives. My fiancee
says (key word--says) that he prefers me not to wear make up--he says I have a 'glow'--but he's partial. We have a very open relationship and both believe in the 'look but don't touch' theory so when he tells me he thinks 'the woman at the other grocery store line' is good looking, or the 'girl across the bar' looks nice--they usually have make-up on--but he always tells me he prefers my 'glow'.
