Does makeup help, or hurt the way others perceive you...


Women who wear makeup are not only seen by others as more likeable...

...but also perceived as more attractive, competent and trustworthy. In a recent study by Harvard University researchers, 100 photos of 25 women's faces were judged without makeup and with three different applied makeup looks - "natural," "professional" and "glamorous." 

The results: When viewed for 250 milliseconds, all three makeup looks increased ratings of attractiveness, competence, likability and trust compared to the ratings of the same faces without makeup.
