You are correct.

I was reading some commentary and re-watching the bathtub scene, and a going theory is that Stannis' former wife was able to see her for the old hag she was. Hence her extra disgust.

Maybe the necklace was just for effect though. Perhaps she can turn the illusion on or off at will. Or maybe the directors were just showing us the way she sees herself, which is her true form.
