The Look That Guys Find Most Attractive on a Date

The next time your hair or eyeliner is just not cooperating before a first date, take a deep breath. First of all, this guy is going to be way more impressed with your charm and wit than he will be with your makeup prowess. And second of all, most guys actually prefer a more subtle look.

According to a recent survey from the online dating site Zoosk, men like a more natural beauty look on a date. Of the 1,200 men surveyed, 66 percent said that they didn’t find a date any more attractive if she was wearing dark eye makeup like a smoky eye. As for your hair, 82 percent of men said that a natural hairstyle was the most attractive and 84 percent preferred natural-looking hair color over hair that was obviously dyed.

So the next time you’re preparing for a date, skip the crazy-expensive blowout and opt for one of these quick and easy hairstyles. Then swipe on one or two of these awesome beauty products for after hours and call it a day. Voila—easiest primping ever.

Of course, the thing that’s really most attractive is confidence—so if you feel hottest with a blowout and a smoky eye, then you do you!
