According to a New York Times report<\/a>, a new study reveals that women who wear makeup (without overdoing it) are perceived as more likeable, competent and trustworthy. Not surprisingly, the study also reveals that makeup increases a woman\u2019s attractiveness.<\/p>\n

In a previous blog post, \u201cBusiness portrait, the why\u201d<\/a>, I gave a number of arguments in favour of having a portrait of yourself on your website, LinkedIn profile or Facebook page. You wouldn\u2019t buy something from someone wearing a mask, and if there isn\u2019t a picture of you for potential online customers to look at, you are effectively wearing one. A photograph subtly tells your audience you have nothing to hide and makes you more trustworthy.<\/p>\n

All of these observations indicate that it is definitely a good idea for business women to have a professional photograph with good makeup on their website, LinkedIn profile or Facebook page.<\/p>\n

The pictures in this post feature\u00a0 Stephanie Buckley, who was a joy to work with. The makeup artist was Maria Carmela Chierchia, who has been in the beauty industry for nearly ten years.<\/p>\n
