What 15+ Iconic Movie Characters Would Look Like If They Refused to Wear Makeup

Nothing is impossible for a professional makeup artist. With a few swift moves with the brush, a tired actress looks fresh and beautiful. Makeup artists know better than anyone that any woman can be turned into a gorgeous movie star with the right makeup.

We at Now I’ve Seen Everything were curious to find out what the iconic female characters would look like if they were on set without any makeup. And also, in the bonus part, you will see a very popular movie character that is impossible to imagine without his bright makeup.

We think that sometimes, with lots of makeup, it’s hard to see the natural beauty of famous actresses. And it would be great if movies showed regular women more often — without perfect makeup and perfectly-styled hair. Do you agree with this opinion, or should art remain art and there are enough ordinary people in our lives?
