No Makeup, NO TRUST?

I always felt that people treated me differently when I adorned makeup. I was never a glamour queen. I stuck with the basics, mascara and blush. Still I could sense I was treated differently.

Rebel that I am, this annoyed me! I wanted people to like me for who I was, not what I looked like. So, I tended to wear little or no make-up. A tool of trust. A filter of sorts to weed out the insincere and bring closer those who really cared for me.

Funny how things work out. According this this study, I was getting quite the opposite result. People were actually weeding me out!!!
