Hilary Clinton’s Makeup is a Thing?
There was recently an article published on Slate, which explains the importance of Hilary Clinton not wearing make-up when giving a speech for the Children’s Defense Fund. The article explained that the prior presidential nominee was forced to walk a tightrope, to properly express her femininity while appearing to be a competent presidential hopeful. The article relates her lack of makeup to a more stern approach and not attempting to meet the expectations of potential voters and politicians. It was noted that she has been more harshly judged than her male counterpart and was often the target of sexist ideals. Headlines not only commented on her not smiling enough and even to what she was wearing.
With her recent appearance was hailed for appearing as a natural woman that was properly expressing her age who was impassioned and keen on the issues at hand. Her appearance was seen as a pivotal change in not only her appearance, but gave the writer a reminiscent glean of her realness in relation to prior issues and speeches she has made. The writer applauded her powerful speech and her ability to bring attention to important issues at hand.
