Elizabeth Montgomery's makeup - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I was just wondering if anyone noticed any certain ways they did Elizabeth Montgomery's makeup when she was playing Samantha? She seems to have a "bewitching" look (pardon the pun) in Bewitched...she actually looks like a witch in the show (a beautiful witch, but a witch, anyway) but she doesn't always have that look in her other photos.

It seems like they might have added a bit of a point to her eyebrows, and maybe some darker eye makeup too... what do ya'll think?

Around the eyes, definitely. They probably used more dramatic shades of eye shadow. I also notice that Liz wore false eyelashes. She didn't look quite the same in her later TV movies - much less eye makeup.

I never noticed before, LOL.

Well I've noticed before, but if you look at the picture thread you can really see a difference so I thought I'd ask because you guys know a lot. If you look at her eyes, you can see the dark false eyelashes, and if you look at the center of her eyebrows you can see a slight point there that isn't there in her regular pictures. Just wondered if you guys knew anything about that.

Her eyebrow point is not makeup but rather a natural one that actually
is fairly well known as a trademark of her features, just like the little chip
in her front tooth & the way her front two shall we say fang teeth tend to protrude out somewhat.

She did it naturally, just not all the time which is why sometimes you see it & sometimes you don't.
