Of course, the second sentence of the article says that the editors of the publication "take the no-makeup route."

This would be like an article in Car & Driver advising people to buy cars while saying that the people who create the publication prefer the bus.

The shadow and liner are getting darker and simultaneously migrating to the outer edges of the eyes and beyond. The makeup artists are so in love with the drama, they don't see that their models look cross-eyed.

Soon, make-up will be declared essential health care and HHS or IRS or some government acronym will issue a mandate. Get ready to pony-up for the cosmetics.

She's an absolutely beautiful girl, but in that photo, she does indeed look cross-eyed thanks to a poor makeup job.

In "Fight Club," Bonham-Carter had her makeup artist put on her paint with her non-dominant hand so that her character would look unstable.
