It is no surprise that the faces we see on television, in movies, in commercials, in live performances, and in plays get the makeup treatment before going on the big screen or the big stage. Both men and women get makeup done when acting in or recording a movie, tv show, or commercial. It helps cover up blemishes, scars, acne, and sun damage to the skin, as well as being used to help transform a character into another type of creature, mythical being, or alien life form along with the help of CGI and costumes.

So take a few moments as you scroll your way through this batch of pics that show the power of makeup. You may recognize some big names in the ahem, 'entertainment for adults' business that you probably are used to seeing when your browser is in the infamous incognito mode.
