Why is that each and every scene in gonzo porn these days has to have woman with such overdone makeup? It's as if they grabbed mud and smeared it all over their eyelids. Then when they get cum all over their face it's like the makeup is running down their face.
Maybe it's just a personal preferance, but does anyone else actually love or even like that deep, dark mascara or whatever it is? It's nasty and only a few woman look good with it. I'm sorry, but it's true. It would have looked nice back in the 80's, but not today. Very few woman looked good with that heavy dark makeup, maybe Jayna Oso was one. She was ok. It all seemed to start with the American Bukkake movie and now it's as if it's in every single new Jules Jordan movie. Feeding Frenzy 7 was pretty much ruined because of this. It's a turn-off. I was so happy when I saw one scene in it where it was not like that. I haven't made it to the 2nd disc yet and don't know if I will.
If you want to have lots of makeup, it's OK, just not heavy, thick BLACK. An OK example, is where you have a woman like say Katsumi in a nice costume. It's ok to have her wear some creative makeup or whatever. Nothing wrong with that. She looked good in Ass Worship 6!
I realized this topic has come up a lot, but so what? Obviously producers aren't listening, because they keep doing it. Maybe you could say i'm overdoing this and it's not such a big deal.."it's ONLY porn". I don't think i'm overdoing it at all. After all, we're the people making people like Jules Jordan rich. Do people really love this look? I don't think it makes them look any better. It makes them look like a hooker. Sure it makes them look really nasty, but not in a good way. I don't ever, ever want to call porn stars "sluts" but I guess this is one way of making them even slutty than before. Maybe that's what men like? I don't know. Not me. Again, makeup isn't bad. Just don't overdo it!!
No, I agree, I absolutely hate it when there's alot of heavy makeup. I want to see what the girl looks like. I don't get the whole makeup fetish (if that's what it is) and/or degredation thing. It's not hot to me.
Seems like you're just watching the wrong movies. Of course you'll see heavy makeup in a Jules Jordan video- that's just his style. Try some of the stuff by Digitial Sin/New Sensations.
It would be good if the size of the false eyelashes could be reduced in some cases too, or even not used at all. It's a bit like false tits, i just don't see the point of them
I remember reading on ADT one time when a poster referred to the fake eyelashes as caterpillars glued to the chicks' eyelids. I always have that image in my mind when I see false eyelashes now.

Caterpillars Mason! Can't say i've thought of it before but now that you come to mention it, i see what you mean. Lets hope they get smaller or even crawl off altogether in some cases.
Yeah, it's interesting how supposedly heterosexual directors just LUV to slather young starlets with so much eye makeup, etc, that they look like drag queens with something to hide ... Is it just macho tastelessness, the need to turn the actress into a generic fucktoy, or the flowering of repressed homosexual tendencies (the last two theories are not mutually exclusive)?
I like makeup. I think a good makeup job can make all the difference in a scene. That said, heavy black mascara is easy to over do, and if it starts running, you're talking total woodkill.
Not for me. I think that it is very hot when girl has a lot of maybe. I really like fake big eyelashes. I really like non-traditional makeup colors. Like green mascara and stuff, yellow lipstick, fashionable color schemes. I think that that is totally hot.
I completely agree Alex! This sounds really hot. Although it can be completely overdone such as the ludicrous makeup in "Artcore 2" from Anabolic.

Yeah I agree, sometimes it can be overdone, and sometimes it can even look scary but in general I really like makeup and look forward for hot girls with good makeup.
try Lewd Conduct,,,, there is a gal named Honey with extreme eye makeup,,, i think it looks extremely hot,, she is referred to as the "clown" she is hot in her scene and my only complaint is that there was no anal later
Most of Jules productions it is very stylized but it's damn well done. Whoever does it knows what they're doing and it does look great 90% of the time.
My wife brought home one of her chick mags (Jane maybe) and it had a fashion spread with a pic of Jenna Jameson with almost no makeup what-so-ever. I swear it took 10 years off her face. I honestly don't think I'd ever seen her without makeup on before in all the years she's been "public". It may make some of the younger girls look more mature but in Jenna's case, she ought to start going natural. She's even hotter without.
How much makeup is enough and what is way too much depends a lot on what the scenario of the scene is about. I don't mind if some of the makeup runs at the very end of the scene after taking a facial, but makeup running in the middle of the scene from just sweat and saliva or even tears is not very sexy, IMO. I can definitely do without the color green in makeup kits, 98% of the time. I am thinking of Taylor Rain's eye shadow in her scene for Kick Ass's 10 Man Cumslam series. They couldn't succeed in making her face not pretty, but they sure tried. The exceptions where green makeup might be okay are some ebony and asian girls that look okay with it, or a scene with a mardi gras, masquerade ball, or showgirl theme where the costumes have lots of sequins and feathers, or a St. Patrick's Day scene for a website that updates several times a week year-round. I don't understand fake eyelashes, but what is usually a bigger peeve for me than eye makeup, lipstick, or nail polish is foundation and blush that actually helps to accentuate the girl's facial pores in closeups. I see it somewhat frequently in some Europorn paysites, and although it is not a wood killer, I do notice it.
LOL! I can see it now. A new series from JM Productions. Each scene has caterpillars crawling on a girl's eyelids. Multiple guys take aim trying to shoot them off. Title of the series? Here are some possibilities...

What makes the scene is the performances by the chick(s) and the stud(s). If the make-up makes the chick look like a two-bit whore and she performs like one then great. If the director is going to have the chick wear slutty make-up then he or she needs to be sure the scene fits the make-up.
As I wrote a while back about Tiffany Mynx, when she's getting pounded this way and that, her face is all contorted, she's screaming, "Oh f*ck!...Oh f*ck!" and her mascara is runnig all over the place, fantastic!
I like to see the women in makeup. I like both “nasty makeup” and “tasteful makeup”.
I am defining “nasty makeup” as the type of heavy makeup only seen in porn that would be in totally bad taste to wear in public outside of the adult entertainment industry.
I am defining “tasteful makeup” as the type of makeup that even if worn heavily can still look glamorous.
I don’t think that either type of makeup is necessarily degrading to women. I also don’t think that “trashy” lingerie is necessarily degrading to women.
I am not sure why I like “nasty makeup”, but my guess is that it is representative of brazen sexuality and disregard for the traditional societal mores of propriety. I admit that it is probably not a good idea for women to wear the “nasty makeup” in public outside of the porn world.
In general, I like it when women make an effort to look nice, although I don’t think they should be too self-conscious.
Obviously it is a fetish to some to see dripping black make up. Another conquer for the guy. He "ruined" her face. I love sexy red lipstick on girls, but am no fan of overdone eye make up. It gets in the way of seeing her actual expression in her eyes (hoping she has one :) About the caterpillar remark w cheap false eyelashes -- I agree. If you go to a nice salon and have them put on by a pro, they look good. If you do it yourself, usually its the cheap kind and will look like a caterpillar sometimes.
