Make-up: white is sexy, brown is ugly



There is that make-up thing I don't get with Thai women; they will put white powder on their face until they look like a ghost, or just as white as the guys from Kiss.

White is still beautiful to them, and trying to convince them from the opposite has no effect at all, as another characteristic from Thai ladies is that they don't listen so well, as some might expect... :-)
Yes, most of them can be sweet, caring, ... whatever. But don't try to tell them that their natural brown skin looks far better then the ugly, white ghostpowder.
There are exceptions, of course. But not too many.

The effects of the white powder may even turn out dramatic on pictures taken with a flash.

So be it. Anyway, after a shower, they will look nice and Thai again.
And try to take pictures without a flash... :-)
