This is directed to Female Business Professionals: ?

Are there any of you who do not wear makeup?
Or is it the social expectancy to wear it?

I wear makeup simply because image sells. I know it sounds very harsh. Business is social and you need to stand out, unfortunalty I’ve noticed women who don’t wear makeup and "for lack of better words" are invisible, they don’t leave a lasting impression at all.

I will answer then that, yes it is a social expectancy to wear it.

I kinda feel like not wearing makeup to work is the same as turning up looking dowdy or with scruffy clothes. Plus it helps me feel more confident. Though having said that there are alot of girls i work with who wear minimal makeup.
