This depends on the guy. Some can pull it off, others can't. I'm one of those who can't. If I put on make up, I wouldn't look goth, I would look like a serial killer lol

It's not so much about looking "goth" but learning how to augment whatever natural attractiveness you've got and demonstrating a level of self-assuredness and self-awareness. Knowing what works for you is part of that.

"Goth" just happens to be a very bold and somewhat easier style to look decent. A more "nude" look is, counterintuitively, pretty difficult but there's almost no masculine individuals who wouldn't benefit from it.

That's very well put.
Does anyone have resources they'd like to share to that end? For absolute beginners for very subtle men's makeup.

I have nothing "for men" specifically but there's a million and a half tutorials on how to use primer, concealer and foundation. So long as you don't start doing any contouring it should all be pretty gender agnostic.

"Why so serious?"

Been winking at the freaks all day and nothing happened.

You're missing the 2 litre where it counts, fam.

I've met some very pretty serial killers. You do not look that good. Sorry.
