They may or may not be doing permanent damage but women do a lot of horrific things to their faces with makeup, eyebrows, makeup tattoos, and surgery.

There is a pretty big echo chamber with fashion and it can send things off the rails fast. Same thing happens with body builders, plastic surgery aficionados, and looksmaxers and basically any group you can think of.

    Sure. But plenty of women enjoy doing makeup to please themselves, and there's nothing inherently damaging in most of it, some is even made to help your skin.

    My husband likes the no makeup too, but he sure would not try to tell me it would "ruin my face". I mean - at this point he knows it doesn't as I'm holding up a lot better than he is. But regardless, it's just not really his call.

    Those eyelashes, yeah - I think they are dangerous. Also filler, Botox, not gonna do any of that, they don't look good long term and would not object to an "intervention" if I did because it's at least ruinously expensive if nothing else.

    I agree that isn't the best way to phrase it and that how a person feels about how they look matters way more then someone else's opinion but we are basically saying that what women tell each other what men like and what most men actually like can be very different things.
