I don't understand this. I posted here before and I knew many Hippy chicks that wore makeup. Not plastered all over their face but enough to make them feel about themselvs. There is nothing wrong with makeup. And it is not a hippy thing at all. We wore no uniforms. There was no right or wrong way to dress. Or to wear your hair it was up to you. So if a guy today says he is a hippy and he hates chicks in makeup then he is wrong about the being a Hippy part. He just does not like chicks in makeup. Just be yourself thats what it is all about. Peace
I'm pretty hippy-ish and I have to say that no, I think makeup is fine. Makeup that accents your natural beauty is aweseom. You know, like a subtle shade of lipstick or something like that. And plus it's not like we sit around and think about makeup all the time haha. Just be yourself. That's what hippy guys like.
one cool thing about makeup is it protects the skin on your face from the harsh effects of the sun and environment. i was raised and live in california and i think wearing makeup regularly, not a ton of it, and not all the time, but a 5 minute makeup job on a regular basis can make a difference for a woman as she ages. i do get compliments from women on my skin ... part of it is genetic also.
i don't know. i saw leg warmers and bright disco colors are back in fashion, like in the 80's. maybe in 10ish more years we can all sport tin foil again.
i love wearing makeup.... because it brings out my eyes... my whole face is one color........... ALBINO... so make up just brings out my features for me.... it really is a personal choice
I believe most men, hippie men or otherwise, like women on occasion to doll themselves up and look very sexy and ultra feminine, in a sexy dress, or skirt and blouse, nylons, high heels, with makeup on, long dangle earrings, etc.. Dolled up, beautiful, feminine women turn most men on. Every so often you see a scruffy, long haired, bearded, hippie sort of guy wearing jeans and a t-shirt, a musician or whatever, walking down the street with his arm around a stylish, high-fashion sort of woman who is all dolled up in a sexy dress, nylons and high heels, wearing makeup, long dangle earrings, maybe with a chic, short hairstyle, or long hair in a chignon updo, carrying a fashionable purse, etc.. Sometimes it is an opposite attracts thing, a scruffy hippie guy with a fashionable, dolled up lady. It is like the scruffy, hippy looking guys who are rock stars who sometimes date very stylish, dolled up actresses or women who are fashion models. My man is handsome and masculine, and he is clean shaven and he has a short businessman's haircut, and he looks fantastic in a suitcoat, slacks, nice shirt and tie, and when we go out I usually doll myself up very elegent, ultra-feminine and stylish, in a beautiful dress, nylons and high heels, a fashion scarf, long dangle earrings, with my long blonde hair pinned up in a chignon updo, or worn long and loose down my back, and he dresses masculine and stylish in a suitcoat, slacks, nice shirt and tie. We both like dressing up a little when we go out somewhere to a resturaunt or a nightclub, etc.. But I have been on dates with long haired bearded hippie sorts of guys too, and they can also be handsome, and fun to be with, depending upon the guy. I remember one hippy sort of guy I dated, and he had long dark hair halfway down his back, and a full beard, and a gold hoop earring in his left ear, and I went on a date with him one night and he was dressed very simply and plainly in a flannel shirt and blue jeans and work boots, and I was dolled up ultra-feminine in a very stylish, beautiful, flared and layered, knee-length, red silk/chiffon dress, with nylons and red high heels. That evening I was also wearing eyeliner, mascara, eye shadow, and red lipstick, with a pair of gold and diamond long dangle earrings, a red chiffon fashion scarf, and slender gold braclets, wearing some French Hermes perfume, and my long blonde hair pinned up in a chignon updo. He had no problem with me being dolled up, in fact he told me that I looked beautiful, and we had a wonderful night, we had dinner, then to a club and then back to his place. It was lovely. He was a sweet guy, very loving and affectionate. It didn't seem to bother him at all how I was made up and dolled up ultra-feminine, in fact he loved it! The next date I had with him though, I wore a long, flared, gypsy skirt and a blouse with my long blonde hair up in a high ponytail, and large slender gold hoop earrings, so maybe that evening I looked a little more like a hippy lady. I love the attention I get from handsome men when I am dolled up ultra-feminine, in a beautiful dress, nylons and high heels, my makeup on, long dangle earrings, etc.. It's lovely how they will pay more attention to you, look at you with desire, open doors for you, refer to you as mam'am, maybe tell you that you are lookin' good, or you look beautiful. It is fun to flirt just a little with handsome men, and use your feminine charms on them. You can do that anyway, but when you are dolled up very sexy, beautiful and feminine, you feel that way also, and men pick up on that, not only how you look, but how you feel so feminine and beautiful. When a lady is dolled up and dressed very feminine, and carries herself in a very feminine way, it makes men feel more masculine around her, it increases the mutual attraction betwen the feminine lady and the masculine man. Of course women are naturally feminine, with our without makeup, but a beautiful lady really dolling herself ultra-feminine can just enhance her femininity, which I does turn handsome men on, and can make them feel for masculine around the feminine lady. And it is fun getting dolled up. It is something feminine ladies like to do every so often. I do it alot actually, and my handsome man loves it. I love getting dolled up beautiful and feminine for my handsome masculine man. That is one of the fun parts of being a lady, to on occasion, make ourselves look very sexy and feminine!
i need makeup today. i was up LATE playing rock band. LATE. and up early, 'cause i have kids. i'm frightening.
Not a big fan but it can look ok if done tastefully. I wouldn't like my lady to wear it all the time as I feel she's better without it, though she wouldn't want to either.. Subtly on certain occasions, going somewhere a bit arty, upmarket or something she'll wear a bit and it looks great- I too am partial to a really subtle touch of eyeliner on one or both of my eyes if going out somewhere smart heh...
Right on Soaring Eagle, I like women with little or none at all, and can't stand when they drench themselves in perfume either. Make up is to bring out and highlight the natural beauty, not put on so much they need an ice cream scoop to remove it. It's like kissing a chemi-kill factory...yuk. Some is fine, some can be hot, too much is not!!! LOL...cheaper too.
I agree...this is great great advice to so many questions. Be who you are...if you enjoy makeup....go for it, if you don't....don't wear it. Life can get quite complicated when you're trying to please others or fit into a category. eace:
I prefer no makeup, and natural hair, and so on. Atleast more so when you're just around me, I'd like you to not always care when around me, even if you're in a baggy shirt and sweatpants. Be real, I don't like it when people hide their trueselves all the time.
