¿Esto suena natural? A: Do you think she is a great beauty?
B: No great shakes! You can easily see a gal more beautiful than her.
C: It's her make-up that transforms her. I bet her natural look would be a far cry from all that meets our eyes.

Poco natural
I think it seems a bit unnatural just because you tried to fit so many idioms in there (good for you for practicing though!) Here's how I would have written it:
A: Do you think she's pretty/good-looking/ beautiful/attractive/hot?
B: No, definitely not! You can easily find a girl that's prettier/hotter than her.
C: It's her makeup that makes her look so good. I bet the way she looks without it is way different than what we're seeing.
(Also, I've never heard the phrase, "great shakes", it's probably old-fashioned) :)
