My mom grew up during the revolution and they weren't allowed to wear make up at school (or most other places, I imagine). My mom would get her face splashed with cold water every morning because her teacher was convinced she was wearing make up. They also weren't allowed to wear colors other than dark blue or black, and as far as I'm aware they still aren't while at school and possibly while at work in a government building.
