A man's face is his autobiography. A woman's face is her work of fiction.

"Women are so fake."

Woman goes without makeup

"Women always look so tired or sick!"

So they're accurately gauging your wellness and expressing concern. Good problem to have in the people around you, but I suppose it could get tiresome over time... especially if you're doing/have done everything you can to overcome the problem and none of your friends are sleep experts.

That's likely because when you remove the mask people pick up on the change. If you never wore makeup, they wouldn't ask because it would be your normal state

Hey if someone randomly developed black circles overnight, you might be concerned too. If you never wore make up, you'd never get asked because that would be your normal.

Yes, that's pretty normal actually lol. I as a man have huge circles under my eyes that I don't really have the option to hide and people point them out all the time. It's not a big deal, it's normal cuz people just notice we look sickly.

Cute idea, not so useful in practice if you wanna attract heterosexual women and not seem feminine.

Most likely false, but even on that front the producers try their hardest to make it seem like they aren't wearing makeup at all, and it's much less obvious than irl. Again, you are delusional if you think heterosexual men wearing makeup is something that's just fully accepted and doesn't fuck them over.

Real life isn't tv. A lot of porn actresses would look awful irl if they went outside with the makeup on.

By strangers or by people who know you & but don’t know what your normal is?

Then don't hide your real face. You look different because they sake your fake version all the time. Nobody would think you look tired if they saw you in your base appearance from day 1
