What are some of your favorite beauty moments from movies/TV?

All of mine stem from things I saw as a child:

 

I loved it when Elizabeth Taylor wrote "No Sale" in lipstick on a mirror in "Butterfield 8"

And Bette Davis's crazy makeup in "Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?"

I always loved Homer Simpson's invention of the "makeup gun"

And I still want that machine that did Judy Jetson's hair on "The Jetsons."  I couldn't find a pic.

Remember how bad Mad and Hel's makeup from "Death Becomes Her" wound up at the end b/c they were spray painting themselves?

 Mine would be the "Geisha transformation" scene from Memoirs of a Geisha...the makeup application is fascinating, but also the cinematography is incredibly executed.

@Madeline7 @AMK721 For some reason I don't recall that scene from the movie - but I loved the book!  If you enjoy that genre, I recommend reading Lisa See (she has several good books) and Amy Tan (I liked The Joy Luck Club movie better than the book which is super rare, but I adored The Kitchen God's Wife and The Bonesetter's Daughter was decent).

one of the women the book is based on, Mineko Iwasaki, went on to write her version of the geisha life called Geisha: A Life (alternatively Geisha of Gion).

@greeneyedgirl107thanks for the book recommendations!  Always on the hunt for a good read.

Re: What are some of your favorite beauty moments from movies/TV?

@Madeline7that is my all time favorite book.  I loved the movie too. Agree the makeup was stunning.

I have to post one more, from "The Little Mermaid:"

How could I have forgotten Scarlett O'Hara pinching her cheeks?

I just thought of another one!  The scene where Joan Rivers applies makeup to Miss Piggy from "The Great Muppet Caper."

The matchmaker makeup scene (especially that lipstick application!) from Mulan immediately comes to mind.

@lmi82 If only makeup was that easy to apply!

Re: What are some of your favorite beauty moments from movies/TV?

I love, love, love Mulan. I see your lipstick scene, and raise you the best makeup removing sleeve EVER.

Anytime I watch Rupaul's drage race and you get to see them creating their looks with contouring/baking and doing their eyebrows it AMAZES me. The way they transform their faces is truly incredible.

Re: What are some of your favorite beauty moments from movies/TV?

@vront The contestants are very talented!

I always loved Kate Beckett's makeup in Castle. 

Re: What are some of your favorite beauty moments from movies/TV?

@alexasteph Very pretty!  Her look appears effortless, but I bet it's hard to do b/c they say the natural look is the most challenging!
