I never believed in make up until my hostel mate showed me some of her pictures and said that she is a movie star. Nobody will say that she is a movie star without make up. She is not even an average looking person. I saw that there is a big change that make up adds to her. She looks like an entirely different pretty girl with make up. Do you think make up can really change the look of a person?

Me too... it definitely does change the look. it depends on how thick/thin makeup is applied. there are also women who look better with makeup than without it, and vice versa... movie stars appear to be that glamorous and all but wait til you see them without makeup. you can say that they're just the same as ordinary people...

Thanks for sharing the information with mylotters. Yes, it is true that movie starts don't really look that great. It is make up that adds a lot of value to their personality and looks. Also, hair style change the look of a person a lot, especially when it comes to hair style of girls. I have to concentrate on make up atleast when I go for parties.

i don't know much about makeup but i have seen few actress with and without makeup and they look entirely different.. makeup might make you look beautiful but there are also side effects on face after applying them which will show-up after aging..

hi dalia, of course it can change the beauty and the personality of the girl.. i really believe on it, there are many ways of making yourself beautiful, and we know that putting make up is the main thing a girl can do to make beautiful always.. i admit i am a make up lover.. i love to be beautiful, i love to experiment.. i also love to watch a program on the television that talks about make up and making girls beautiful.. i am a certified make up addict.... we can also site more examples to girls who do put lot of make ups and it can really change them a lot.. of course we have those rented girls, honestly they are not beautiful with out a make up.. they hide their real beauty on those make ups, and yes they just appear during night time, also time plays a big role to girls to be beautiful. night time is the best time to be beautiful and feel so sexy and seductive.. janebeth..

yes my dear friend, make up really changes a person's looks. it's really magic. make up can bring out the best looks in you, it enhances your personality and even make a character out of you. for those who are into direct service like dealing with patients, clients, etc. are advise to add some color into their face to project vibrance, energy and friendliness. it's not good to see a service provider looks more sick than her patient. you don't have to be in full make-up... a simple dash and touch of it will do. bottom line is you have to be presentable and make up in a way WILL help you improve your LOOKS! look fresh and stay beautiful inside out!

I think make up can not really change the look of a person.Though make up may take some positive influence for one's look,but it can not change the essence of ones look. But in my opinion that little make up is essential for one who wants to change in their look.It really will make you became different after you make up a little.

Absolutely! Whether he/she will more beautiful or otherwise, it will depend on the technique. Besides, we already saw movies stars and their pictures without make up. Some have a very huge different that we never realized it's the same sparkling and stunning person that walk on the red carpet. But it's important not to wear too much make up on your face or you'll hide your real look.

I personally use make up very sparingly but when I do use I see the change...It becomes a little difficult as to spot ans diffrentiate the diffrence...I do look more photogenic, though I do not like to see my self with make upon the mirror. But I have seen photos of actress with and without make up and to be true, there is sae chang ein both the photos...They actually conceal a lot with make up...I had though make up enhances your look!!! I read this thing about a very successful actress her in Indai who has done a few english movies too who came to the city on a late flight and when photographers intended to take snaps, she just flung all her hair to her face and hid it!!! Also this same actress takes more than 2 hours to just put on make up!!!!

I agree that make up make girls glamorous, but simplicity is beauty especially for a young woman. Also, make up has so many side effects to girls face skin, if you wear make up everyday, for a long term, you can't even go out with out make up. I prefer make up when there is a party or formal occasion, that means respect the others. But it is not necessary in ordinary living. And I see that make up cost a lot for some girls, is that right?

It's certainly that make up can make any one different ,either prettier or uglier,either older or younger.But any person's heart can never be changed by make up. Thus what I always focus on is pepole'immenence.

Yeah it can really change the look of a person. It can make a person more attractive or beautiful. But for me I rather choose a girl who doesn't wear makeup. Simplicity is beauty.

I also agree that simplicity is beauty. But, make up can really make a change. If you see many of the movie stars without make up, you may not be able to identify them. I don't use too much make up. But, I will use it once in a while especially when I go for a party or a function. I don't use make up if I just sit at home. Thanks for the response.

I think makeup can really change a person. You can find the movie stars before and after makeup photos and it will give you a big shock. Even if an ordinary person will look great if she has a nice makeup. I love China

Yes without make up, some movie stars really look different. In Tamil film industry there is a movie star called Simran who is one of my favourtie cine actresses during her hey time and once i happen to see her without make up. Oh! my god! I couldnt see her without make up. I was almost scared after seeing her without make up. Lolz.. Nice to see this discussion in Today's top. Have a great day.

Yes makeup can change the look of a person. If the right shade is used and the right amount is apply it can make an average person look prettier. When I was younger I used to wear makeup but I do not wear it very much anymore. When I put it on I could see the change in me.

I believe that make-up can enhance someone's beauty. As far as making someone beautiful, make-up can only go so far. Natural is more beautiful than a face clouded with make-up.

I think girls with make up are definitely more pretty than usual people without make up. These could help them brighten up their facial expression which make them have a fresher look using make up. But needless to say, to those who are too keen with makes up, when they go out without any make ups, then they would become like ghost. It's the truth. If you see some of the movie stars or singers without make up, it's definitely looks weird on them. Some would be very ugly when they look natural without any make ups. Therefore I always prefer girls who are natural and without too much of make ups. Soft layers of make ups would be ok for me.

Appropriate amount of make-up will bring out the glamour in someone. However, over doing it will make things worse though.
