Make up banned on Iran's state television?

Iran's state television will ban make-up for women, "unruly children", "abnormal music". An Iranian newspaper reported this Wednesday. According to this article, The broadcaster's top manager, Ezzatollah Zarghami, told his managers that female presenters wearing makeup are to be taken off air, saying the wearing of makeup was against the law -- even though millions of women in this country use it. He said there "should be no insulting of family elders by children."

Iran's state television has had major backlash from supporters and opponents of the government, stating that their programs are relatively dull and not able to appeal to the nation's middle class. The Middle class in Iran tune into foreign networks instead.

Geee i myself can't live a day without a little touch up let alone being exposed bare faced on television that must be a total nightmare. LOL
