All of the ladies that I've seen have obviously spent a good bit of time preparing, in an effort to look their best. How would you feel about a request to look "natural"...little or no makeup, etc? Would it be a case of "cool, less to have to do", or "uh-oh, this stuff really adds to my feeling of beauty"? Inquiring minds (OK, maybe just me) want to know.
Since you guys will invariably chime in, am I alone in thinking that this might be an interesting change of pace? I don't mean it as an everytime thing.
I was just having this discussion with a provider friend of mine. A few days ago, I saw a Geena Davis movie called The Long Kiss Goodnight. She's a suburban housewife with amnesia, realizes she really a CIA hit-woman and adopts her old persona, including very heavy dark eye makeup. Looked so sexy! Something about mascara and heavy eyeliner gets me cookin!
"The natural look" was only option on the menu at home, so something a little wild or sexy is nice when I'm hobbying.
I'm with you Acidom in that I prefer the natural look. I wouldn't ask the question that you've proposed, though. I would just find and stick with the providers that wear very little to no makeup.

actually get it. I think 1st impressions are incredibly important, so providers will (and probably should) doll themselves up for the 1st encounter. However, there are a couple of ladies (MML & ST) I regularly see that I've told its OK to meet me in your sweats. They are that beautiful in person.
So, the moral of the story look before you leap. Let the ladies get dolled up for you on your 1st date, then after the activities, turn on the lights, and check what's there. You might be pleasantly surprised, or you might just want to pass.
The person that I was considering asking is somebody that I've seen before. I actually thought it might make things easier for her, and she's plenty pretty. But everyone has given me plenty to think about.
The trick is to wear makeup like you're not wearing much. Only enough to enhance your features like your eyes and lips. I probably wear like 20 different things on my face (lotions and makeup) but youd never know it. I dont cake it on and its very tastefully done and light.
I think asking a girl to not wear makeup is not really a good idea. I know I would be pissed and not do it. Its just part of me and my ritual, and no it doesnt make me insecure. I look just fine without makeup, I just prefer to wear it. If I can cover that pimple and make my eyes appear larger, why the hell not? Its like asking you to shave that mustache of yours that youve had for years, just because it tickles my clit. you know? Just find girls that wear very little. Reviews will tell you. Makeup doesnt have to be gawdy and overdone.
Anyway, some girls do look scary without some makeup. do you *really* want to see dark eye circles and pimples and scars? hmmmm at the very least concealor is a girls best friends, next to diamonds of course

Are just like you
They dont like alot of makeup

I use the electric beach so i dont need any
You'll get the best of both worlds. Hopefully, you won't be startled by the difference. Fortunately, my ATF looks fantastic made up or scrubbed clean. It makes her a delight to see when I wake up.
Thanks for the idea, but my SO wanted me home before morning. She claims to miss my snoring and hogging the bed.
I think it's a way for a provider to stay sane. Just as a business executive wears a suit, a soldier wears a uniform, or a minister wears a collar, many providers use makeup to get themselves into the right frame of mind to perform their best work.
It's for much the same reason why providers often have separate outfits for work and normal life. Again, it's about staying sane and avoiding burnout.

Makeup is fun, and sends a definite message when applied artfully, but the slightly flushed natural just-out-of-bed look is a sexy, sexy thing too.
When working f/t I employed a slightly more natural look than the typical Vivid porn star look. When you're entering into vigorous activity, sometimes it's nice to know that you won't look like a beat up prom queen/Tammy Faye nightmare at the end.
A little flushy blush, some gloss, and wine-stained lips can be just right.
Find a natural beauty and I'm sure she'll be happy to oblige. Great suggestion!
I like light makeup..and sometimes I am thinking about the gentleman I am with in his suit...more than likely he is married..mak-up on it would not go off very well...I think the "painted" look is part of the uniform...so I add a "little" more..but still light.....
My expertise is within me not my "make-up"
If it's a first meeting I'm going to put on my party face. If it's someone I'm familiar with and I understand their tastes, I put on my make-up to suit them. Some want a porn-star look with lots of heavy mascara and eyeliner and bold lip colors, some want an elegant model look with soft tints and enhancements, some don't want anything at all (or think they don't).
When a gentleman caller doesn't want anything, I do put on a base (to even my skin tones, cuz I really am blotchy) and a nice clear lip gloss (cuz I like kiwi-watermelon and it looks kissable) and no eye or cheek color. That seems to satisfy their desire for the "girl next door" look, and allay their fears of make-up on their clothes.
I don't think I would be comfortable going with absolutely zero make-up, unless it was someone I had known for a very, very long time and was very, very comfortable being that casual with.
I battled a case of nasty adult acne and as a result I have acne scars on my chin and forehead. I am using a fade cream but it's taking some time so I use foundation and transluscent powder. I always use color on my cheeks. I love doing up my eyes with mascara and I use lip gloss not lip stick. For evening appointments I like to wear shimmery eye shadow to add some pizzazz to my appearance. lol
I like lite make-up and light sexy and shiny lipgloss. Of course having those sexy lips for that gloss really helps as well.
I tend to do 2-hour dates, and they are wearing the war-paint in the beginning. But, by the time the second hour begins, and we've cleaned up once or cooled down with all the sweat and other splatterings LOL, the war-paint is suddenly gone.
On each occasion with very veiew exceptions (and probably because of the experience if anything) I was very pleased with the natural look and could not wait to finish my tour of duty with this lovely unkept, soiled and un-made-up beauty.
It's all good in other words... or those are the words..
