Barefaced and apprehensive

Ally Edgar is the 37-year-old head of a successful construction recruitment business in Newcastle. She firmly believes that you only have five seconds to create the right impression and has been wearing make-up since her teenage years. And not only at work: she always wears make-up on holiday and in the gym.

Her friends (and ex-husband) say that she looks great without make-up, but she isn't convinced. She's worried that not wearing it will seriously affect her confidence in her professional and personal life. She wonders how she'll cope winning new business, around a table of strange men, and also going out in the evening with her female friends.
