As I paused on my way to ECCIE this morning, I came accross this article/photo play about porn stars and makeup.

Interesting - any comments?
Some look rough but who knows if its 5 in the morning or whatever. Originally Posted by stuckinsyracuseThat's what I was thinking. Plus, without makeup some people probably just take bad pictures. There are probably like 4 good pictures of me taken in the last 10 years. The rest usually come out looking horrible. Maybe I should start wearing makeup.

One disturbing thing, though - some of the "before" pics look like these girls have obvious PT issues (whatta surprise!).
Actually, most of them don't look so bad without the paint. Ever see the pics that some of the scandal mags post of the major "Hollywood" stars in this situation? Some of them look much worse than these girls. I remember seeing some pics of Heather Locklear a few years ago that were absolutely terrifying. And that is without considering her big cellulite-ridden ass that they showed also.Cameron Diaz is another one who looks horrible when caught "off guard."
Still, it is quite impressive how much a skilled makeup artist can change someone's appearance! Originally Posted by rooster

That is always done in these types of things. One of the biggest things that they play with, in addition to makeup, is lighting. Anyone who has ever taken more than a couple of snapshots knows that bad lighting can make anyone look horrible. Surprisingly, though, they did not play that game much with the few pics I looked at in the links in this thread.
