To Maisie's surprise, she received a more negative response than positive ones. After seeing her natural face, some commentators even stated that Maisie had cancer or alopecia.

Maisie got shocked to receive negative criticism from her followers. One of the commentators said, 'Take her swimming on a first date.' One commentator said, 'I will punch her in the face if she woke up next to me.'
Later women also started criticizing Maisie on her looks.
Some ladies even claimed that they don't need to wear makeup because they are naturally beautiful. Her confidence started to decline with the harsh comments on her looks.
Later this brave teen decided to avoid the negative comments on her appearance.
This teen believes that makeup is creative and essential part of fashion. Maisie spends half an hour each day applying makeup. She was overwhelmed with the positive comments for her half-makeup selfies.
She stated: 'There were very few remarks if I'm honest, and it is sad. But I was aware that if I was putting it in the public domain, I am opening myself up to criticism. But the positive remarks did make it all worth it for me; it was nice to have some recognition for what I do outside of family and friends.'

Maisie has good knowledge of different makeup styles including fresh and dramatic ones. She stated- 'Personally, I love putting makeup on, it's what I do for fun. I wanted to show that I like makeup, and I wear it for myself, but I'll also happily get on the train brow-less if I want to. It's sad that this is how society is now. Makeup can and is a part of fashion and girls like to experiment and be creative; we don't wear makeup to hide our faces or deceive people. We don't wear makeup for other people; it's something we do for ourselves. Women shouldn't be criticized or called fake or unnatural for wearing makeup in the same way they shouldn't be called ugly if they're not wearing any.'
