    Default Makeup for Guys.

    What are your thoughts on this matter? I mean, there a lots of products for men these days, so I don't see a problem with makeup on guys. Personally, I only wear a light Foundation on my face. I have some questions, I need some answers:

    • Is it normal that my foundation fades, and become shiny at the end of the day? *Shiny face*

    • How much Foundation should I normally use? A handful or what?

    • I use the Max Factor for Men Foundation. What do you recommend?

    I have guy friends that are better at putting make up on than me, then again I was friends with a guy that looked better in a dress than me.

    Foundation fading is pretty normal, I don't wear it often cause I hate having to constantly re apply it.

    Use as much as you need I guess, thats what I do.

    Can't really reccommend any.

    *yawn*

    Well I prefer no make-up on a guy but foundation is fine. It's only when they start getting all lip-glossy and blushy. That is when I am scared!

    o It's perfectly normal for your foundation to fade! Because during the day you're bound to sweat and stuff like that! I know when I use foundation it's always gone at the end of the day.
    I guess the best thing to do is touch up if you can! :D

    o Well ... I think less is more! I only use foundation to cover blemishes and things like that so a handful is a bit much since I'm not actually covering my whole face! Plus if you use too much it looks really unnatural. >:

    o I do not know an answer to this one! n____n;

    I don't think it's normal for guys to wear make-up. You only need a small amount of foundation. I recommend Covergirl True match. Apparently it's really good. I use liquid to powder foundation at the moment.

    I agree with that. I would never wear anything but a light Foundation to cover up the... bad parts of my face. xD

    I don't have a problem with dudes wearing make-up. Why should it be restricted to girls? Girls are allowed to wear stuff that was originally intended to be for guys.

    I agree. People think it's perfectly acceptable for "movie" stars to wear it, but when a normal guy wears it, he's feminine. Come on! Rock stars wear black eyeliner, and that's okay? ><

    Men is makeup is "ok" because it's harmless. It's still a pretty feminine thing to wear. Like a girl in a baseball cap and baggy jeans is considered a tomboy.

    I love it when guys wear Makeup. Lauri wears eyeshadow and eyeliner and he looks hawt.

    Wear whatever you feel comfortable with Chris. I use the EXTRA FAIR foundation as Im so pale, but it works for me so I stick to it.

    Its natural that your foundation will fade, mine does, but I don't bring my makeup to school. Maybe you should try concealor? It covers up blemishes and under eye bags and keeps to a natural look.

    I abhore the use of make-up on men, with the exception of one man;



    It's easy to see why the rule wouldn't apply. Keep it Piratey.
    There is no signature here. Move along.

    Lotions and foundations would just make my beard sticky.
