I prefer the look on the right… I don't really need women to look like a Star Trek character

99% of the time women look prettier without heavy makeup. That's just my opinion that nobody asked for though 🤷‍♀️

Studio makeup is on a whole different level. If you saw an actor in stage makeup you would swear they are wearing a mask. It's designed to look good under harsh lighting. Btw Kate Mulgrew has a face full of freckles.

I've worked conventions some of these ladies have shown up to.

[–] buddascrayon@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

Yes and they famously go to conventions without putting on any makeup whatsoever. 🫩

[–] mushroommunk@lemmy.today 13 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Yeah, I was on board until he ruled out Marina Sirtis. Tsk tsk.

[–] Bane_Killgrind@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Exactly. Denice or Gates? Even Barbara and Gwyneth, with our without the makeup, if I were quite a bit older.

Who the fuck downvoted me I'll fight you these women are all beautiful.

lol, yeah, but it's a matter of taste.

btw how lucky is jeremy who has obviously never been assaulted and locks himself in his basement every halloween

[–] SpruceBringsteen@lemmy.world 12 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Jeremy also likely isn't a real person

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 12 points 4 days ago

But if she’s willing to wear a Starfleet uniform…

[–] kibblebits@quokk.au 4 points 4 days ago

Right? (meaning yes)
