Could somebody tell me why this comment was instantly "deactivated?

I have been having an ongoing problem with my comments instantaneously being "deactivated" with no actual reason given aside from a vague reference to 'violating community standards'. Most of these deleted comments are simply asking for clarification or expressing a personal opinion on the article - and always politely, civilly and without foul language of any sort. Below is my most recent comment. Can anybody tell me what was so awful that the robo-moderator decided it didn't deserve to be posted? 

Body makeup? Self tanning? No thanks! In my book a beach body means throwing on a bathing suit and grabbing a towel and heading to the beach! I live in Florida - that makeup would melt off in 10 minutes! Instead I just wear loose, cool and comfortable clothes that don't require unnecessary fussing to wear and just go about my days. FWIW, I love colorful, fun and funky clothes, worn with whatever jewelry I feel like on any given day, and generally get big smiles and appreciative comments, and I don't have a model stick figure!

 

What really burns is that I regularly see seriously snarky, rude and obnoxious comments that somehow pass muster!

Learn something new, walk somewhere beautiful, and be grateful every day,
