A really attractive woman won't need makeup.There are some that look good with it.But 2 me the best one is the one who has enough confidence not 2 wear make-up(or very little)that will look good when they wake up the next morning. That's true beauty.Make-up is an illusion.LIKE FAKE BOOBS.
AIN'T NOTHING LIKE THE REAL THING SO...GET REAL!!!

That's not true C. Everyone looks better when Make-Up is applied Correctly some women just over-do it. But there is nothing wrong with Glamour and if you think something is wrong with that and that is a part of being Female,well then there is something Wrong with U and we already Know there is cause U are a Guy using a Picture of Naomi Cambell. Certainly Don't make such a Stupid Generalization as that! Even Models Wear Make-up. don't be So Absolute. Simply state that u don't like Make-up.

And here's another thing C.Sometimes Fake looks better than Hanging Sloppy Boobs! God R U the Dumbest Cretin in the World. Actually a Moron. Stay with all of the Dogs in the World. U stupid Fool! Sorry,but it just isn't True in Hollywood . Maybe just in the Ordinary World. Youth and Glamour Sells in Hollywood not Fat,not Ugly, not Homely. Don't U watch T.V.? Ordinary ,everyday people can look this way but if U r in the Public Eye U must Look good. U must be MORE Attractive than just the general Public! Who wants to see Anybody Ugly??? Everybody wears Make-up because of the Lights.

Nobody has 2 dictate 2 me either but making Sweeping Generalizations like this are Retarded! If that works 4 U fine,but Don't take away a Woman's Choice to wear Make-up or get Plastic surgery. U don't Know What it is Like 2 be a Female Unless U R 1 Yourself! U have no Idea how Much Competition there is. It is Foolhearty to say these Retarded Things!

makeup means u r making something up. and any1 who thinks makeup is what makes someone attractive: perhaps u r only attracted 2 the makeup and not the person. beauty is within

Of course. But actually it is being Healthy and Happy that shows. Good Health. There is no such thing as Beauty from inside! Stop trying to be Smart and thinking about TMBGITW. Personality, Health, Good Happy thoughts. This contributes to a person's Beauty. Anybody who is Negative and just thinks about getting even or Vengence or Garbage thoughts spinning Evil in their Twisted little Minds,since they couldn't Possibly be Intelligent if all they do is fight and Gossip all the Time. These are Small-minded Moronic People without Lives or Jobs and have nothing Better 2 Do then make Trouble. I call These so called Dregs "Parasites." We must Try 2 be Positive Christ-Like people not Dregs Of the Earth.

Very simple answer to this.
The fact of life is that people get tired of the same old same old.

People want change. People want what they think is new. Again, people want what they THINK is new. Some people will go on with no makeup on and on. Maybe forever. But sooner or later, people want to adorn themselves with whatever because they get tired of no makeup, no jewelry,etc. And even a new attitude becomes desired. That's life.

But the secret is, people grow more if they can shed and bare their true selves to the world. The time has come to get real. That will be a lesson to learn. I've stated it but many will read it with blurry eyes.

Just so I get this straight... are you saying that someone who does wear make-up isn't being real and isn't baring their true selves?

I hear your sentiments, but to me make-up has nothing to do with whether someone is being real or not... I mean, if we follow that logic, baring our true selves would require throwing out clothes too eh?! And shaving.. yea forget about that... etc etc

I think people should do what makes them happy ...whether it is wearing make-up, or not wearing make-up.. and wearing no make-up doesn't exactly make one noble or necessarily true about who they are... because who one is has little to do with whether one chooses to wear make-up or not... it's about who you are and how you live your life... whether one is true to themselves in their behaviours and the way they lead their life...

But then again that damn mascara may be blurring my eyes, and I might just be missing the true meaning of what you're trying to say... razz

I once heard a preacher (her church is in Compton, CA) say that if a woman want to either get a man or keep her man she needs to wear make-up in order to effectively compete with the other women that he might come in contact with outside of the home. Do you agree?
CandyEyce]


a PREACHER is saying that??? i don't remember hearing anything about that in the bible... in fact, it's the opposite of 1 peter 3:3,4, that says makeup and hairstyling can be a distraction from the real self that should shine thru...

some women look better w/out makeup, IMHO. especially young girls who have good skin. they mess up their complexions w/ foundation, trying to cover up freckles and the like... or trying to look older.

First of all...makeup to enhance is okay because we all accentuate in one way shape or another...but as to "hide" something...that is different.

I am attracted to the natural woman...most of all. But some is tolerable...

But for a preacher, or anybody for that matter to make such a statement is simply perpetuating the insecurity...

Diva, you are saying good things. I am with you.

People want change. People will want to do makeup. And then they'll get tired of it and stop. Shaving is actually a natural part of life that gets us thinking about change on a daily level, actually. So maybe people will let that facial hair grow on because they believe it's time for a new look or attitude. Make up is enticing because there are rainbows of options to apply to your skin. New you everyday, hey. But if people chill and just 'go' then makeup becomes a lesser portion of what you can do good in this world.

No, a woman has not to wear make-up to be attractive. A woman just has to feel good with herself, with and without make-up. Myself I don't like to wear a lot of them and don't 'need' it allways.

Funny thing is that men biologically find makeup attractive on women because the cheeks and lips naturally blush after sex. Females buy products to create the illusion of this affect throughout the day. Oh the useless facts you learn in college, ho hum smile

I don't know Mani or Mayte,however in my opinion Mani needs to Sexy herself up. Mayte seems like a sensitive person,Mani seems a little Shy and Proper. Loosen-Up Mani. Get Wild!



you make the assumption she isn't wild. her sexiness is for her husband not for the world so her proper ways are correct. Mani could very well be more sexual and sensual than any of Princes other women...we will never know.


And on the preacher comment, I've heard the same thing but not in a harsh way. It was coming from a female pastor who was talking to married women about "staying" eye candy for your husbands. Her point was more about keep doing the same things you were doing to get the man...if that was working out, wearing makeup, dressing nice...she was saying don't change because you got him...those were some of the things why he may wanted you. I don't necessarily disagree with that.

Lastly, I was raised with a mom who puts makeup on to cut the grass and who thinks i'm depressed if I don't wear make up. I've become with age more of a "natural" woman but in my 20's, I was superglammed out...weave and MAC make-up, nails done...blah, blah, blah. I became a trophy to men and they never really dealt with the inner me.

So I have my demons evil with make-up and beauty issues.

#1. No I do not think wearing make-up is ungodly. I wear it but not too often, only when I feel like it really and I do not over do it. As far as my looks are concerned I am attractive and I do not really need make up but I like to wear it. I also do not need any "extra" enhancements. I always remember though, to be modest because of what I represent. I would not dress all provacative and sexy for everyone to see, I do that only for my husband. Even before I was married I was modestly dressed. I feel inner beauty is truly the most important and I feel for those woman who think they need to be a slave to the high standards of beauty we find everywhere, the ones who have paid a very high price (not only money) just to look good and feel good about themselves.

#2. Mani is a modest person she is also a wife now, she is certainly NOT ugly and does not slave to any particular standard of beauty. She is a compliment, helper and Friend to Prince. Prince loves her Prince married her. It does not matter what anyone thinks about her.

#3. I met Mayte in person a few years back after one of Prince's concerts and she is beautiful, the only time I have seen her with no (or it could have been very little) make-up was on her website. She is a little beauty even without make-up it seems. As far as her womanly body is concerned, she is not what one would call "well-endowed" in the chest area but it does not matter, she works what was naturally given to her and that is all that matters.

---OR---
Do you think a woman who wears make-up is ungodly?

Would those of you who rag on Mani think she looked better if she wore make-up and tight suggestive clothing?

Would those of you who like Mayte think she was ugly without the make-up and revealing clothing?

Question #1- No.

Question #2 - No. She is an attractive young lady with or without make-up

Question #3- Mayte is attractive without make-up. She just looks totally different.

Whatever makes you feel good about yourself is all that matters. The nice thing about makeup these days is that it is made so well that you can use a little just to accent your natural features w/out looking "made-up".

What's on the inside can never be camouflaged by makeup anyway wink

Speak for yourself honey. Some women don't need make-up to look or feel good about themselves.
