I began to thumb through a fashion magazine and came across an article related to this topic. Three pictures were taken of the same woman. One with no make-up, one with moderate, and one with heavy make-up. The hair styles were identical. Numerous people were shown one of the three photos and were asked to give their impressions of the woman in the photo. I'm sorry, but I don't remember which magazine it was, or the date of the issue. Results: No make-up - Shallow person, timid, boring and uninteresting, Moderate make-up - Self-assured, capable and professional, an achiever. Heavy make-up - Dishonest, loud person, probably a hooker. Is the moral of the story 'Moderation in all things', or is there more to this? Comments?
