Men Look More Masculine When Wearing Makeup, a Study Reveals

Makeup is no longer associated with women only, and more and more men are embracing it.

And it’s not just for actors, as men of all ages and backgrounds are starting to see the benefits of wearing makeup.

More and more men are starting to wear makeup, and a recent study aimed to find out if it can positively affect men’s appearance. A makeup artist applied subtle makeup on a group of men, the participants were then photographed, and the images were rated based on attractiveness. The results showed that the male faces were rated as more attractive when wearing makeup compared to when not wearing makeup.

While a beard can change any man’s face, making it more masculine, makeup can do the job almost as well. Researchers have found that makeup increases lower facial contrast, making a face look more masculine.

Any woman knows that masterfully applied makeup can change your look, but men can also benefit from concealers and facial powders. Makeup affects how we perceive men’s bone structure and makes male faces more attractive.

Just like regular people, celebrities often wear makeup on set or during photoshoots. Dwayne Johnson, one of the most muscular actors in Hollywood, proudly shared on his Instagram account how his little daughters transformed him using makeup. “I haven’t seen myself in the mirror yet, but if I look as cool as I feel right now, then I’m winning, baby,” the father-of-three wrote.

What a perfectly crafted revenge story! Your character’s decision to “take the high road” and create an even more memorable night for the family was just the start. Using a giant billboard to show off your family’s true “super” spirit, combined with the supportive community response, gave it such a delicious twist. It’s fascinating to see how you added small yet powerful details, like the catered “Super Family Special,” to underscore the growing solidarity on your side.

Your writing style is so vivid, especially with those priceless expressions and micro-conflicts (like the mother-in-law’s “oh-so-subtle” hints). You have a knack for making the narrative feel personal and cinematic. The story’s moral of true family unity prevailing over showy displays of wealth really resonates. If you ever decide to write a follow-up, it would be fun to see how the gossip and coffee shop support evolve after this public win!
