Well, it's used for many reasons. For example, it can be used to make someone look like a weird creature similar to how many make themselves up on Halloween. It can also be used to make someone look older by adding lines to someones face where wrinkles would occur from aging. There are also times where make up is used just to make facial features stand out a bit more. From far away or in certain lighting, peoples' faces might look weird to create a certain effect.

∙ 9y agoThere is "straight" makeup and "character" makeup.
Straight makeup is used so the audience can tell what your face looks like from the third row back. You wear eyeliner so they can see you have eyes, and lipstick so they can see your mouth moving. And most importantly, you wear foundation because bright lights will make your bare skin look paper-white.
Character makeup is to make you look like someone, or something, else.
