Makeup is no longer associated with women only, and more and more men are embracing it. In fact, by accentuating facial features and hiding blemishes, makeup can actually make men look more masculine. And it’s not just for actors, as men of all ages and backgrounds are starting to see the benefits of wearing makeup.
It increases attractiveness in men.
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.
It makes men look more masculine.
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.
Makeup can enhance the facial structure.
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.

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.

Another user expressed a similar opinion but also praised his character, saying, “Sorry William, I don’t like the stubble But you’re kind, thoughtful, caring, and a lovely family man, so who cares what I think \.”
Expressing concern for the prince, someone else wrote, “William has lost weight and seems to have aged. He needs to rest and take care of himself. With all the pressure from Harry, his father, and his wife, he’s carrying a lot on his shoulders!!”
In contrast to the criticism Prince William received about his stubble, some fans were enthusiastic. One admirer swooned, “Looks good on him,” while another exclaimed, “Love the beard!!!!” A third fan gushed, “Even more handsome with his beard.”
Referring to Prince Harry, one social media user noted, “[They] told William not [to] grow his beard, so now he’s copying Harry, even though [he] had a [fight] with [him] to [shave] it. William is always copying Harry.
Some of the details about his family were included to shed light on the characters and personalities in Prince Harry’s life. He recognized that even the information he chose to share might be hard for his family to forgive.
The Duke of Sussex also stated, “But the way I see it is, I’m willing to forgive you for everything you’ve done. I wish you had actually sat down with me properly instead of just saying I’m delusional and paranoid.”
He also stressed the importance of having an honest discussion, saying, “Actually sit down and have a proper conversation about this. What I really want is some accountability and an apology to my wife.”
