Great Beauty: What Guys Find Sexy

Great Beauty: What Guys Find Sexy
By · February 24, 2011October 29, 2020
01
Your Makeup-free Face

The average American woman spends almost $200 a year on makeup; but guys actually prefer our skin bare. “I love how my girl looks when she first wakes up,” says Keith. “Fresh and natural.”

02
Your Belly

You’ve probably lost count of the hours you’ve spent doing crunches. But guys love our soft bellies! “As far as I’m concerned, there’s a reason they call ‘em ‘love handles!’” says Jermaine, 35.

03
Your Legs

Big ones, small ones, short ones, long ones—according to men, they’re all good. “I can’t resist my wife when she crosses and uncrosses her legs,” says David, 43. “She knows it, too!”

04
Your Eyelashes

Bat those lashes and he’s yours forever! “I love my girl’s eyes,” says Trevor, 36. “Sometimes she looks at me under her lashes and it makes me want to head straight to the bedroom!”

05
Your Natural Hair

News flash: Men love your natural texture. “Every day, Amy spends hours in the bathroom using that straightener thingie,” says Steve, 23. “I wish she’d leave it curly, at least sometimes.”

06
Your Scent

A signature scent will always remind him of you. Mike, 30, loves his fiance’s Jo Malone Vanilla & Anise perfume. “All her stuff smells like it,” he says. “I love smelling it on her pillow.”

07
Your Style

Time to break out your favorite trends, because he loves your style. “Sandy has a style that’s completely her own,” says Dennis, 31. “She’s always been a free spirit; I love her crazy hats!”
