Men who appreciate natural beauty clearly exist (I caught one myself, actually). It also seems like most men CAN appreciate natural beauty: The Schwarzentruber Amish have about ten children per couple and they ban everything from hair cuts to the removal of body hair and they only take a bath about once a week. I have tried to find estimates of how much sex average people must have to have ten children. Unfortunately that was difficult to find. The fact that Schwarzentruber Amish seem more attracted to each other than the mainstream population makes a great argument against the use of cosmetics.
It would be very interesting to know how many or few men actually appreciate the efforts women make with their looks. A few clearly do, a few clearly don't, and then there are those in the middle who officially like the natural look but who can't tell the difference between the natural and skillful make-up, unwittingly rewarding the women who deceive them.
A great measure to discourage interaction with mainstream society, huh? I’m not Amish, but grew up with that particular habit. Only after puberty, when I began to stink in earnest, and my classmates made a point to show their discomfort, did I learn that anything less than showering every day was considered very disgusting.
We seem to be a bit at crossed purposes here. Your focus is on the naural look vs madeup look. My comments have been about something else.....that some people are just a lot more desired than others.... and this huge intra-sexual dimension tends to get shied away from in discussions about sexual relations which tend to get framed in entirely inter-sexual terms: "this is how it is for 'Men'" and "this is how it is for 'Women'".
