wouldnt be prepared to let him see what she looks like with no makeup on.

I feel like an old hag, but if you feel that your relationship is at the stage where you are getting your kit off and having sex then surely you should feel able to let him see what you look like without any make up on?

I totally understand that make up can build confidence and it can make you look fab. But there is surely a point when you are close to someone where you are able to wear a little less /none at all?

So this has been sparked by some random survey about how many men have never seen their partners without make up.

my DH say im cute without makeup on. clearly lies, as ive just found out im now old and pregnant again, so my skin is awful, but i appreciate his sweetness.

tbh, as long as im wearing mascara i dont really bother. i just feel a bit more awake having poked myself in the eye with a mascara wand a few times that morning...

Don't wear makeup (only very rarely)
will wee in front of each other (and fart) but no poos

The wonderful man snoring upstairs has in the past had to help me dress, clean up blood and bathe me when I've been too weak so worrying about makeup seems a bit silly.

I can't believe people who wont let their other halves see them without makeup on have full grown up relationships. How on one hand can you discuss intimate stuff if on the other hand you worry if you've put your slap on. I find it very odd

'Eyeliner seems like pissing in the wind now, tbh.'

tethersend as so many times before you make me want to laugh, but have realized that this is probably etching in the lines still deeper
