I've only ever worn make-up once (for my debs, because my aunt has Ideas about what a girl should look like for that), and can't really stand to wear the stuff personally. It feels wrong, for lack of a better reason. But my granddad and my dad were both make-up artists for the local theatre, and the craftmanship of it has always fascinated me. Stage make-up is different from everyday make-up, of course, but I think the layering of materials to create an image is the same, and it always fascinated me to watch them work as a kid.

There is a craft to it, I think, and a fascinating one to watch in action.

+1 for the fascinating craftsmanship of it. I hated having makeup applied when I took dance as a kid (there was an assembly line of moms whom I could not sneak past or bargain down on their application), and while I've had it put on much more nicely since then for weddings and the like, it's not my thing. But one of my sisters had a Kevyn Aucoin book (Face Forward), and I was amazed at the different personas he was able to create with skillful application, even though I think it mostly falls under beauty/fashion makeup. Plus, the way he wrote about the models and the work was affectionate and appealing, not intimidating or insinuating anything about what women or men should look like.

haha, are you me? I hate having the stuff on my face - it just feels wrong. Exception is when I'm cosplaying, but that feels like a costume to begin with anyway - I'm looking like someone other than myself. But I think the application of makeup for costumes and stages and stuff is really cool; sometimes even looking at different ways people do their makeup day to day. It's not something that I feel is part of my look, but I'm impressed when someone makes it part of their look in a creative way and really expresses themselves with it.
