I'm not a makeup artist, but I know a thing or two about the stuff, and I have some friends who've worked at cable networks.

The thing is, when you do makeup for TV, it can be really different from what a woman would normally do if she were going to a party or something. You can use makeup to contour your face - so to make your nose look thinner, you could use a stripe of lighter colored makeup down the middle. This might look really natural on TV and kinda funky in person.

Also, if you are being filmed from a distance, you might use makeup to make some of your features look stronger (bright lipstick, lots of eye makeup), and that looks really strange up close. This is a good example of how makeup can distort a person's appearance: http://z.about.com/d/dance/1/5/Z/2/-/-/before-after.jpg

One of my close friends used to work at CNN, and she said they would absolutely cake makeup onto people before they went on air, and often that's not the best look in person.

... and now everyone who read this post is dying of boredom.

My wife actually noticed the same thing for our wedding. She almost never wears makeup, but the person at our wedding really caked it on her because of the photos and video. She said it was because the camera tends to strip away quite a bit of detail in outdoor pictures, and so she had to accentuate certain areas so that they would still be present in the photos. After looking at the results, I kind of agree - my wife looked really different to me in person, but in the photos she looks just like she does most days, save with a bit more color. And yes, even I'm bored with this post now...
