C-section: the no makeup rule

Courtney • 28 years old • Just Married • Pregnant with baby #1!
What's the big deal with wearing makeup into a scheduled c-section? My preparation handout says not to wear any. By no means am I some glamour girl but I do NOT feel comfortable naked faced. Especially when those first few moments will be documented. I'm thinking of wearing powder and doing my brows regardless! Anybody have any insight/experience with this?
