From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A makeover is a term applied to changing one's
appearance, usually through
cosmetics. Makeovers can range from something as simple as a
new
haircut, to the extreme of
cosmetic surgery.
Makeovers are often popular
television subjects. Long an element of daytime
talk shows, they have recently moved into the
limelight in television shows such as
Queer Eye for the Straight Guy. Other popular makeover
shows include
What Not to Wear,
Extreme Makeover,
Ambush Makeover and
Pimp My Ride. See
makeover reality television series.
Computer software 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.
