Mary Beth’s Makeup

Margo777 — Thu, 16 Nov 2023 13:38:41 GMT

I love Mary Beth. I have watched her from the beginning of her QVC career.
Watching her this morning on inspirational jewelry, I couldn’t help noticing how heavy her makeup appears on tv. She is such a beautiful person, please change your makeup. It doesn’t do you justice.

@Margo777 That's TV makeup. Mary Beth is very fair and if she didn't wear a lot of makeup she would look like a ghost on the TV screen.

She should change her makeup because you don't like it? Why not tell her on FB?

@Margo777 I'm not a makeup artist so I can't judge someone else's makeup or tell them how much they should wear. I have to agree with another poster, you should contact her directly and tell her how to look better. I'm sure she'll appreciate your input.

I think MB is lovely.

I can't imagine having to adjust makeup under studio lighting

She and I are the same age, and there are days when I pass a mirror in a big box store and I look completely different than when I looked in my home mirror. Ouch lolol.

If we pick on someone's makeup @ the Q I would say Mally is the example of a redo. She likes it, not my look, so let it go ....

IMO, just about all the female hosts overdo their makeup which makes them look older. If it's noticable to the viewers, I can't imagine what they look like in person.

I haven't seen Marybeth up close lately. I heard her on this morning while I was getting ready for work. I think though that since they all do their own makeup now, it is probably much harder, especially if you aren't the best at applying.

I notice that some look more natural than others. I know a big part is the lighting when you put on your makeup. That has happened to me before, and I got somewhere and looked in a mirror and had too much blush on..

I always thought that Sandra Bennett and Jill Bauer looked the most natural even when they did have makeup artists....

I also agree that the older hosts especially should definitely stop with the harsh black liner around their eyes, it is too harsh as we age..

I don't wear much makeup and probably should wear more! 😂. One thing I have read is that as we age, we should stop using the heavy black eyeliner under our eyes. A softer color is more flattering. I am a few years older than MBR and Jane Treacy, who both would benefit from that advice, IMO.

@kaydee50

I agree!

I wouldn't know how to "do" my face so that the camera wouldn't capture every single flaw.

'In some ways we feel blessed by high def tv but in other ways it is a curse!

I can hardly wait for the days when I can have someone take a picture of me with the grands and only have a filter and edit on JUST ME!

Also, it would be nice to have the feature when filming videos...just think... it could correct lighting too!

Of course, we would then probably never recognize REAL politicians and tv personalities IRL ever again!😘

I thought her make up was too harsh for her as well-----not a fan of the all black look anyway. I often wonder if these hosts bother to check themselves out in a mirror before they go on TV---am thinking of SK especially---

Do the hosts have stylists and makeup artists doing their hair and makeup before show time?

I agree that MaryBeth's makeup can sometimes look harsh. However, on a pleasant note, I thought her hair looked much better than it has in a long time on the jewelry show this morning.

Having that black eyeliner on the top and bottom of her eyes is very aging. She has always worn her eye make-up like that and it looks so out-dated and harsh. I noticed that one of the new young hosts (black hair) has tons of make-up on and it looks awful. Terri Conn and a few others look so gorgeous and natural with a light touch. During Covid I noticed that most of the hosts looked so much better when they were doing their own make-up.

MB is the consummate professional..... She has beautiful hands but the rest of her ,from the neck up, is not aging well. Her neck and her face .....at least she is aging without cosmetic surgery.

She has no eyelashes and needs to wear fake lashes, she looks half made up. Some are good at makeup, she definitely is not.

I think they used to...before Covid. Now I believe they do their own makeup and hair.

@Effie54 I think they do their own makeup and hair as well. Some are better at it than others.I would be perfectly fine with the makeup-hair is another story. Especially after having it professionally done......I think after Covid, the makeup artists and hairstylists never came back.

You know, I thought that it was odd that the makeup and hair stylists never came back after Covid. It wasn't long before the salons in my area opened up on full schedules. I agree that some hosts are better at hair and makeup than others. I can't be critical of any of the ladies because I don't know that I could do any better.

Her make up doesn't bother me, but, those loooog , long pants that need a 4 in. hem does. We're the same height 5'4-5'5 and I take a 28 inch hem.

She must wear a 32 in. can't even tell if she has shoes on. She's gonna stumble and fall one day.
