You have to remember that Willow and Xander were supposed to be the geeky losers that no one would look twice at. Kinda hard to do since they were both played by very attractive people, but they weren't supposed to be gorgeously coiffed like Cordelia. Buffy got away with it on account of having been a Cordelia-clone in her old school.

Have to admit I don't tend to notice makeup during the first couple of seasons, except every now and then when I notice Angel wearing lipstick (very distracting!) Usually the only thought that comes to mind is "My GODS! They all look so YOUNG! How old AM I???"

I guess I never noticed lipstick, oddly enough. Is there a specific episode or scene you're referring to?


Edit: That's why I found Willow's overdone makeup in "Lie to Me" so distracting. It was just SO not fitting for the character (or Alyson, truth be told.).

I'm fairly sure I noticed it in the pilot... And in another season one episode, but I don't remember off hand. Time to watch my DVDs again!

Oh yeah...lipstick is there ocassionally. As was the eyeliner on David. A few times it REALLY stood out. Lie to Me I think being one of those.

I've never found Willow that attractive. Cute, maybe...in the first few seasons. I HATED most of her wardrobe and more often than not, her hair, in the later seasons.

Then you see Aly done up as Aly would do herself and she's a bombshell.
