Women who don't wear makeup are much less attractive, which significantly reduces their social status and their dating market value.

This crossed my mind as well, but for me spending 3-5 minutes on makeup in the morning is enough to make a substantial difference in my appearance. One has probably reached a point of diminishing returns by the time one makes it to 91 hours per year.
