'Makeup is art. It's inside that really matters.' That's the motto of Melissa Murphy, an LA-based makeup artist who's amassed quite a lot of followers on Instagram due to her famous before-and-after pictures of people with and without makeup.
Murphy's work reveals how much time (and just how many and only the best makeup products are needed) is required to make people look like they do in films and magazines. In an increasingly image-conscious world where anything and everything is Photoshopped, Murphy's pictures serve as a reassuring reminder that what you see is often deceptive and doesn't always reflect reality.
Take a look at the before-and-after pictures of makeup transformations below to see for yourself what we mean.

They don't know how to do an older ladies make up, much too harsh, makes her look cruel
All look better without make-up... I find it's too much, looks too fake and they all look older. Stay natural x
Why's she look like someone told her an off-color joke in the after pic? "OMG did you just SAY that??!"
there was an article a while ago about what pornstars looked like without makeup. and to be honest i think these might be the images. who knows.
Load More Replies...It's really heartbreaking to see girls who think that makeup makes their lives better, I see all of these girls and nothing should change
Without make up pics about real women. The anothers who care too much herself, (+ changed reddy face colour to yellowish...) I don`t have problem with make up, but it`s could be extravaganza, some another colours please!
