I’m a Type C student female member. I’ve been seeing my papa (a male supporter) for about six months, and we’re going to stay overnight together for the first time this month.
This content is machine-translated.
I’m really looking forward to it because I adore him, but I normally wear contacts, so before bed I have to wear strong prescription glasses, and I look like a completely different person without makeup.
I absolutely don’t want him to see me without makeup and wearing my strong prescription glasses. Would it seem strange to take my makeup off after my papa has fallen asleep?
Also, would men be put off if a woman woke up already wearing a full face of makeup in the morning?
I’m Tetsu, a male member.
I understand that women want to look their best, so personally, I appreciate that kind of thoughtfulness. On the other hand, some men may say they prefer you without makeup because they’d like to see what you look like naturally.
Since this is your first overnight stay, I think you should do whatever feels right to you. As you meet two or three more times, worries like this will naturally go away.

If you’ve been seeing each other for six months, it’d be a good idea to bring it up before the trip—maybe jokingly say something like, “Is it okay if I look completely different without makeup?”—and communicate with her about it. See how she reacts, then decide what to do. Even if you choose to keep your makeup on, it wouldn’t be unnatural as long as you both agree not to show each other the behind-the-scenes reality. She’d probably accept the time needed to “get ready” without finding it strange.
A while back, I knew a girl—not through a club, but someone I was almost involved with—who had the same concern and kept dropping hints. Apparently, without makeup, Face ID wouldn’t recognize her, so she couldn’t even unlock her iPhone. I laughed and said, “Seriously? Is that Apple-certified or something?” But it did help me prepare myself for what to expect. I think it would reduce the risk even further if you showed him videos of people looking like a completely different person with makeup on, while gauging his level of understanding and gradually helping him get used to it.
First, get to know the other person. The more information you have, the easier it is to narrow down your options. If you’ve been seeing each other for six months, you should be able to do plenty. Make the most of that advantage.

I’m an old guy, but if I’m planning to sleep in, I can easily sleep until noon.
I have a girl I’m in a monthly arrangement with, and we often stay overnight together. The first time, she wouldn’t let me see her without makeup, but from the second time on, she did.
Honestly, if an older guy really likes a girl, I don’t think he’ll care that much.

Maezawa from the CEO’s office here as well.
Thank you for your question.
What matters is how close you’ve become over the past six months.
For now, it might be a good idea to sleep without taking off your makeup—though I feel like one night should probably be fine.
You could also wait until you’ve stayed over several more times and feel comfortable, then say, “Actually…” and open up about it.
That said, some people say that after seeing each other four or more times, you stop worrying about appearances. Since you’ve been seeing him for over six months, I feel like it would probably be fine if he saw you without makeup.
Still, if he happened to be disappointed, you’d feel awful, so it might be better to wait a little longer before showing him your bare face.

This is Mei Uehara from the Tokyo branch.
Since you’ve been seeing each other for about six months, why not honestly tell him that you’re embarrassed? I’m sure he’ll reassure you that it’s okay!

Staying overnight means seeing each other without makeup. I think the best thing about an overnight stay is that you get to spend time with someone as they really are, not all dressed up for going out. Women tend to worry about looking bare-faced, but you won’t look as different as you think, so don’t worry.
That said, if it really bothers you, you could take your makeup off after your papa (a male supporter) falls asleep and put it back on before he wakes up.
Come to think of it, my partner takes off her makeup, but she never brings her glasses when she stays over. Why not take out your contacts right before bed and just sleep like that?

I’m in Seattle.
If you’ve had a good relationship for six months, it’s totally fine to go makeup-free.
Honestly, I find it endearing when she feels comfortable enough to do that. If she always had perfect makeup on, I’d feel more of a barrier between us.
I totally get Riichi’s point—LOL.
I also wake up at 5 every morning without even setting an alarm.
