    because some girls think it makes them look prettier, when in reality, it hides some of their natural bueaty

    LOL! Bryan! you are right don't know why some girls/women wear so much,they must see how bad it looks when they use the mirror! never worn much make-up at all only ever special occasions really. Think some women are that uncomfortable with themselves wearing make-up to the paint shop factory accident degree!helps them to feel more comfortable with the image they have.

    Ooh, looks so tacky and unflattering that over- painted doll look.

    Less is definitely more, I think! Just imagine the length of time it takes to get that much slap off when it's been applied with a trowel and an emulsion brush in the first place!

    Some wear so much slap to hide their imperfections. Others wear so much because they dont know how to apply it properly and some girls because they mistakenly think it makes them look better. I think less is more. A lot of young girls wear a lot because they are experimenting and until they really get older and much better at it they dont know what suits them. Perfection in all things takes time and experience.

    I totally agree man, I think it is because all women are naturaly more attune to emotions because of estrogen. Don't ask me to prove that, but I have seen/experienced real life examples. That makes them naturally insecure., and vulnerable to Madison Ave. advertiving strategy. Insecure women usually buy more cosmetics, clothes, etc.... to make themselves feel better about themselves. I have had women tell me that complete obsession with their own appearance was a completely normal way to be. No wonder most of them are unhappy, and insecure. They need to lear that true beauty lies from within and that they have the power. I think some women are just to stupid or vain to realize that. Men do have a part in this, finding pre-pubesceant anorexic supermodels "hot". A bunch of closet pedophiles if you ask me. Give me a full bodied woman over a bony girl anyday. SO many women need to ditch all of that vainglorius crap and be happy with who they are. Not everyone can be beautiful and famous.

    personally, i only use eyeliner cuz a. guys like the natural look,

    b. it makes ur eyes stand out. besides, all that crap does is robv u of ur beautiful skin tone. and some girls wear that much makeup cuz they ''think'' it looks nice and walk outta the house looking like a mess. i always ask my guyfriends how i look before leaving the house. i never had ''an accident in a piant factory'' day in my life.

    perhaps they had an accident in a paint factory or just want to look like Aunt Sally or Ronald McDonald - for a laugh or something.

    Well, I think some girls see beautiful women in the media with dramatic looks and try to emulate them. Unfortunately, normal girls can't afford a team of make-up artists, designer cosmetics and a strategically applied airbrush, so they don't quite pull it off.

    Other girls, of course wear it as a mask so they don't feel so exposed in day to day life which is understandable.

    To be fair, although I know Lily Savage is so last season, some women look equally as awful with no make up at all. You have to be naturally pretty with healthy skin to pull that off successfully.

    Anyway, who are we to judge? We can't make people up to suit our own personal tastes so if a woman is comfortable in her own skin and feels good, she's pretty much sorted and probably doesn't care much about what others think of her taste in make up....

    The younger the girl (13-15) - the more make up she wears... like the old ladies with bright blue eye shadows... horrible! No taste at all

    what kinda girls have you been hanging around? well, not everyone has the flair for applying make-up, just like not everyone is a good dresser. sometimes it actually depends on taste, some people like bold and daring, others prefer looking mild and simple. look out for the latter, they'd prolly appeal to you more

    Coz some of them think that guys like all the outer beauty and make up. Some of us like the "natural" look, and go for personality rather than looks and s3x alone
