They Do it 2

Yes men wear makeup especially when you are on a movie or music video production.

That was my first day on the set of the soon to be released film "Heart Of Summer" shot in Florida. Some would argue that it is not necessary for men to wear makeup. However, when you are being filmed by a HD (High Definition) camera it shows everything and I mean everything. As the makeup artist on set, after  applying the necessary coverage you have to be watching from the director's spot to see whether the "Talent" (as actors are called) are not shining . This calls for you to be alert and on your game so as not to hold up production because on a set time is money. Makeup helps to add definition to the male character's face which sometimes call for contouring for a stronger effect .

For more on this check out a great tutorial on contouring after the jump.
