Noramlly its to make them look flawless. They don't want your imperfections to show on camera or on the stage.

Actors also wear stage makeup because from the audience their faces can look washed out, especially under bright lights. The makeup is then used to make certain features such as lips and eyes stand out so from the audience, they look like a normal person. Stage makeup can also be used to transform a person into something else, such as an animal, an old person, etc.

Does Nick Jonas wear makeup?

not usually but on stage he does because if he doesn't he will look dead. I'm not kidding either. I'm a dancer and i know about the stage. you look really pale and dead-like if you don't wear makeup. Yes, he does. I just looked at more photos of Nick Jonas than I ever thought possible...in them, he's wearing concealer, foundation, powder, light-brown eyeliner, blush and nude lipstick. This is just basic stage makeup for a man, and he has to wear it or he'd look terrible up there.
