Today March 13, 2018 we met.

Hi Blanca, How is it going finding things to update/revise about the Makeover page? In order to earn credit for week 6, please post a log like this:

I copied and pasted part of my article into my sandbox. For now, I'm just focusing on the lead section and the first heading. I re-read those articles I found last week and saw that I needed another one. I spent about 90 minutes searching ProQuest, and found one more article. It's Robinson, Janice "The tale of two mice" published in Japanese Magna Quarterly. I noticed there were some issues with the lead section and posted my suggestions for revision to the talk page. Depending on what feedback I get next, I'll post my revisions of the lead section to the mainspace. I updated link #15, which took you to an old site. And spent some time combing through the other links. Most of them work and take you somewhere relevant.... so far. I'll continue this next week.

If you have questions use "Get Help" in our WikiEdu course page or email me ASAP. No credit for week 6 work after 3/11/2018 Springerhe (talk) 19:00, 7 March 2018 (UTC)


A makeover is a radical change in appearance. When the word is used to describe a change in human physical appearance, it may imply a change in clothing, haircut, or cosmetics. A personal makeover might also include cosmetic surgery, dental veneers, or contact lenses.

In media

Television

[edit]

Makeovers are often popular television subjects. Long a staple subject of daytime talk shows, they have recently moved into the limelight in television shows such as Queer Eye. Other popular makeover shows include What Not to Wear, How to Look Good Naked, Extreme Makeover, MADE, Ambush Makeover and Pimp My Ride. See makeover reality television series.

Computer software and online tools can also be used for performing what are known as Virtual Makeovers. Using a photograph of a human face, software can apply cosmetics, hairstyles, and various eyewear such as contact lenses and sunglasses in order to allow users to visualize different looks without physically trying them on. Today, virtual makeup works in real-time using phone camera tracking, and examples are Visage Technologies's MakeApp, L'Oreal's Makeup Genius, and Oriflame's Makeup Wizard.

Books

[edit]

There is also a series of books, aimed at teenage girls, called The Makeover Series, written by Suzanne Weyn. There are several experts who perform the art of makeovers. Usually makeover artists specialize in hairstyling, make-up or clothing.

"The Makeover Guy" is a registered trademark for author and makeover expert Christopher Hopkins who is known for his television head-to-toe makeovers.[1]
