Applying light make up and talking when meeting a potential spouse

Q: In the situation of meeting a potential spouse...

1. Is it permissible for a girl to put on some light makeup when the boy comes to see her?

2. How long should they speak for?

3. Should she take her parda off when talking?

A:

1. Yes.

2. Our shariah has given a concession just to view the girl, not to sit and chat with her.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
