View submission: What's something you never understood about the opposite gender?
Your conclusion is just one of many possibilities based on the data, heavily influenced by media, as you're already aware.
You going from your normal makeup routine to none is a substantial change, so of course people will ask, especially guys, who aren't able to tell makeup vs. none.
Go barefaced from the start or an extended period of time and you wont have that reaction. Immediately after a long vacation, do sunscreen only for a month and I bet you'll have much different reactions. And if you have the same reactions, then you may have to reevaluate your life, as you may be way too stressed or lacking sleep/nutrition/sun lol
Lastly, men are not one dimensional, they like the no makeup look for many reasons: represents a level of trust & comfort, confidence, the GF vibe, etc

Yeah... No. These aren't "one off" days where women suddenly stop wearing makeup at random. This happens to an overwhelming amount of women even when they go long stretches without makeup. It's the norm. And it's not just women who are sleep deprived or need a nutritionist. Tell me you're a man without telling me you're a man.
