make-up on guys
 

Just out of curiosity, what kind of make-up do you like seeing on guys? ("You" meaning females and, I suppose, gay guys, though I suppose it really doesn't matter.)

When I used to wear make-up, it would be red and black eye-liner. Red lining my lower lid, and black along my upper lid, as well as just below the red.

Boys with dark, soulless, vacuous eyes are sexy. And eyeliner usually enhances that.

a little bit of smoky, smudgy eyeliner is nice

Guys who wear make-up is oober sexy. I like it when guys wear their make up so they look like girls. :)

I don't care how many of my friends (the preppy ones) don't like the idea of eyeliner on guys, they have to accept my eyes look more green with eyeliner.

^ Couldn't agree more.

I couldn't agree with you more there. :)

I also love men with a pale face, but natural looking, all with makeup. I suggest powder makeup, since liquid can be quite messy. Also, men with plump-looking natural red lips. That just enhances the already sexy eyes.

Same rule as with women, as long as they suit it. :)

I don't just like eyeliner on guys, but lipstick too, both black and red.

I hate red lipstick in itself; it looks too false.
But now, I love when the lips look naturally redder. Some lipsticks can do this, or stuff like constantly biting your lips.

Eyeliner is smexy.

DuWop's Lip Venom is intended to enhance the natural lip color, meaning redder lips without the use of lipstick. It's a gloss, but after the natural color has come, you may wipe it off. I use it for the morning, before school, and wipe it off when I leave.

This is a warning: if you have sensitive lips, then this is NOT for you. It is known to have a fierce burning sensation, since it gives an irritation to your lips to give off that natural red color.

You may buy it from Sephora.com, or your local Sephora store. It is $16, which is a bit too expensive for the size it gives. If this does not work for you, you may try other lip plumpers: Too Faced Lip Injection Extréme is one example. They have a sale for a set of their lip plumpers for $30, that's half off.

I like the way I look more with make-up on. I usually do thick and smudgy on the bottom as well as the top and sometimes with little pointed out-stickings from the sides and dark eye shadow up to my eyebrows. If I have my deathhawk up, I'll do a bit of shadow on my cheeks for the sunken, Johnny Slut look. I do lipstick on certain occasions and when I do its usually just black eyeliner (it stays on better) or purple, which is my favorite. I'm also pretty sure that badteccy has no problem with this. Hahaha.

eyeshadow, eyeliner, mascara, lipstick, foundation, and nailpolish... thats just the emo kids... ahhaahahha

I don't understand why that was funny. I don't know any emo boys that wear foundation, or too much makeup... And if they did, why would that be funny?

Tsk, tsk, xxkiss. Las time I checked, males didn't have to be an emo kid to wear makeup. There's "vampires", glam rockers, deathrockers, metal bands, and even crossdressers. I love wearing makeup, it's just difficult to hold back the pimples and crap that comes in its wake.

I usually enjoy reading your posts, but this time, well...

*SLAP!*

No no. You see, when emo losers wear make-up its only four or five specks of eyeliner because they're afraid of their parents seeing them in make-up. I also find it confusing as to why emo kids are asociated with wearing make-up. Goths and Deathrockers in the 80s and everyone else music-wise before them (Glam rock mostly) did it first.

Next thing you know, they'll be saying that KISS is emo. :D

Wait-- they're not?!

My world lays shattered at my feet!!

Hahaha. Silly mall-goffs. Everything pisses them off. It must be the plague of fake angst that seems to affect all of them. Hah.

One of the science teachers at my highschool dressed up as a Kiss-esque person. It was pretty awesome.

By the way, I like the smokey eyeliner too. Black lipstick can be cool too, if it's done right.

I love guys with make up on their eyes... just look at gerard way... my gawd

You're damn right I don't have a problem with it.

black or burgandy lipstick and thick smoky eyeliner...
me likes!

I wear eyeliner and eyeshadow, occasionally glitter. That's about it. I like it.

I don't like glitter. Never did. I'm not sure why, I just don't.

hehe... you don't know michigan boys then...

*sigh* thats not what i was getting at... i just ment those are the type of boys who wear make-up around here. the gothic boys just wear eyeliner or eyeshadow... they mostly think make-up makes them a "fag" jeeze you people take things to literal...

Although eyeliner was enitially<sp> made for women...
I <3 eyeliner.. haha

No, you just express yourself poorly. It's either that, or you're stupid. You choose.

Gosh, this topic makes me yearn to see more guys in make-up.


*hankers*

Not true. It began all the way back to kohl with the Egyptians. Although make-up was used by both genders, it was supposed to be a male accessory.

If you have noticed Tutankhamen's sarcophogus, his eyes are lined with kohl. Also, check out Ancient Egyptian paintings as well. Eyes are lined with kohl.

If they can wear it right, it looks amazing, on most guys.
All the boys I know that wear it do it really shitty. I dunno.

my brother has started wearing makeup...its so cute...he's all grown up...and stealing my eyeliner!
the screams of *i'm going to throttle you if you...* and *if you use my eye-shadow clean the brushes!!!* resonate through the house, like they did when we were little...:)

Reminds me of myself and one of my ex-girlfriends. She used to steal my make-up all the time...

:D

Guys with well done make- up (esp. on the eyes) make me drool... ;D No, wait, that'd stain my lipstick... nevermind. *laughs*

I'm rather used to seeing guys with make- up nowadays because I work a lot on big stages where they need to use it to make their eyes show. No black eyeliner there, though. But seeing one of my friends (he's more into the "metal" look) with eyeliner and a toreador costume made me realise how little it takes to make people look both silly and extremely handsome at the same time. :P

Well said Minyaliel. Fortunately, here there is only one other type of people that wear make-up besides me, and that is the kids wearing insane clown posse t-shirts down to their knees, and wearing black eyeshadow. So, I virtually have no competition, thus I am happy.

Haha, is that my bunny on your signature?:D

My boyfriend used to wear make up. He doesn't anymore. :(

I like eye makeup on guys. Lipstick really depends on the person and situation, even as a female I never wear lipstick. Foundation is fine as long as I don't notice it (that should be true for any gender!). And nail varnish is always nice.

I love lipstick. I have alot to work with too because my lips are rather big. Haha. Do they sell dark purple lipstick in stores? I was never able to find any. Maybe I'm not looking hard enough.

Hey, don't speak for all of them. But there certainly are a lot of "emo" kids here these days, eh?


Anyway, I must confess I don't particularly care for eye makeup on males. Well, if it's worn right and it suits the guy and the outfit, it can look very nice. Most people who do it just slap on some black liner to match their Tripp pants though....no disrespect to the Tripp-wearers out there.

Yes it is, it is an awesome bunny and needs more recognition. :)

Makeup on fine male specimens is the sort of thing that weakens my defences against lustful attraction.

This is a good thing.

Though the same rules apply to men as they do women: it should always be tastefully and properly applied, or it will look like shit.

Just a light amount of eye-liner on guys are okay. Sometimes nail polish, but I don't really like much more.

Make-up on guys should be limited with eyeliner, eyeshadow, foundation, lip gloss, and blush to only define the cheek bones. In my opinion.
