I want to say it doesn't matter, but it does seem like if you have a lot of pimples or uneven skintone or something that it reflects badly on you in a professional environment. It's bullshit, but that's reality. Same for hair. I have crazy curly wild hair and on days when I get up and I'm running late and don't have time to style it straight, people definitely give me disapproving looks in the office. I don't give a shit, because I work for a state agency and nobody is going to fire me for having curly hair, but I definitely wore foundation to even out my skintone and I styled my hair straight for the interview.

So no, it's not required to wear makeup (I hardly ever do at work), but it certainly helps you land a job (not in the sense that you look desirable or attractive by doing so, it's mostly that wearing foundation or effectively applied "natural" makeup means that interviewers won't focus on something like a pimple on your face, etc.)
