Yay! Hillary Clinton ditches make up and wears a scrunchie.

I noticed David Cameron had a bit of an oompa-loompa orange tan the other day. Maybe, the tide is turning and men will start having to get "dolled up" to be taken seriously.

Oddly, in the "no make-up" pic of Hillary, she still seems to have a bit of lippy on.

I know! I love it! (Most of the media was being vile and judgmental about it though).

Good thingy in Jezebel about it.

yes Mardy the normal expectations for make up on women are so high that a woman can wear perfectly obvious lipstick and still have people say she isn't wearing any Confused

Good on her. I love Hillary Clinton and think that it sets a great example. Woman don't have to be covered in make up to do their jobs.

Much as I love Hilary she is most definitely wearing make-up.

Does Angela Merkel use cosmetics? If she does, she seems to go easy on it. She's the most resolutely un-glamorous woman I can think of in public life right now.

Angela Merkel is fairly pared down if she does use cosmetics.

I think Hillary looks more animated in the sparse make up pictures. She looks like she would be harder to connect with as a person when it's troweled onto her.
