Do Guys Like Lip Gloss?
One of the problems that some men have with lip gloss is that they feel that it makes girls look “too glamorous.”
As with other makeup, lip gloss can look amazing on some people… but not so good on others. But much of that is confidence. If you feel confident in lip gloss, don’t hesitate to add it to your lips!
One of the problems that some men have with lip gloss is that they feel that it makes girls look “too glamorous.” We’re not entirely sure how anyone could be too glamorous! But, we get the idea – being in a full face of makeup, including reflective lip gloss, can be intimidating for some men.
And, as you probably could already have guessed, wearing lip gloss can get in the way of some intimate moments.
Men find it more difficult to kiss a woman with lip gloss on. Generally, men don’t want a mouthful of shiny, bitter lip product or glitter when they go in for a kiss!
Do Guys Like Lipstick?
Guys generally seem more fond of lipstick, especially if it’s of the matte variety. That way, they don’t have to worry about any glossy stuff getting in their mouth. Also, they get to enjoy a more natural look and feel from your lips.
Lipstick is and probably always will be the standard, even if we may choose other options.
Men have also said that they prefer more natural shades than colorful, eye-catching colors when it comes to lipsticks. So, if you’re trying to impress him, go for a shade of lipstick that is close to your natural lip color.

Makeup That Men Like
Different men enjoy different looks. If there’s a specific man that you are trying to attract, try to figure out what he likes! But don’t compromise your comfort or preferences. If a man loves a completely natural face, but you like to wear makeup to feel more beautiful, you’ll have to figure out how to navigate that in a way that makes sense to you.

Trying to figure out what kind of makeup men find attractive becomes even more complicated. The fact that so many men say that they are put off by too much makeup and prefer a ‘natural look.’ Still, women tend to feel more confident wearing at least some makeup.
Men may find makeup attractive. But they may also prefer to see it on someone they don’t plan on approaching, like a movie star.
Regardless, here’s some makeup that men tend to find attractive:
1. Smoky Eyes
Smoky eyes are smoldering. But getting your point across doesn’t always mean using charcoal and black. You can try shades of Brown, black, brick, or even green to create a sultry smoky eye that works perfectly for evening and nighttime.
Just be careful with eyeshadow on the waterline.
2. Lush, Natural Lips
Rather than an intense vibrant red, you can still make yourself sexy with a more natural-toned lipstick.
It helps to choose colors that compliment your complexion and are close to your lips’ natural color. Also think about lip liner, and how lip liner and lipstick can go together.
3. Long Lashes
Full lashes make your eyes stand out and can really emphasize their color. Handy mascara applications or false lashes are perfect for getting this kind of look.
4. Red Lips
Even though this goes a little against what we mentioned earlier, perfectly applied red lipstick on full lips is something guys almost always go for. Yet, if you’re wearing a ton of the stuff, you might not get any kisses you’ve been looking for.
If you decide to rock red lips on a date, try to use a lipstick that will not paint your face if you end the night with a kiss.
Matte is best for this!
Conclusion
Confidence is unbelievably attractive! And this can do far more than the ‘perfect’ lip shade ever could.
There aren’t enough makeup tips in the world that will help you if you are not happy with your look. If wearing bright pink glossy lips makes you feel fabulous, then don’t hesitate to wear them.
If you want to rock a more natural look, that’s cool too.
Chances are the guy won’t even notice what you’re wearing on your lips!
