I prefer a women who wears little or no makeup.  I love a women that
will excuse herself to "make herself a little more presentible" and
return with her hair neatly combed... her clothes neatly (and
professionaly) pressed... and her lipstick freshened a bit.

Making one's self presentible is a gesture that says "I'm doing this
for you good-looking because I like you."
