New Banner. Not Water Proof

six... seven... all good girls go to heaven ♫We're now giving readers control of the banner themes and this one is brought to you by Jake (who won the last Say What? contest). He wanted runny mascara so he gets it.

I curse the day they invented waterproof mascara because runny eyes always make a strong visual impression. But this banner was hard to make -- internet searches provide mainly images of white trash reality stars crying and that's not what TFE is about!

What are your favorite scenes of glam beauties breaking down into hot smeary messes?

Heath Ledger's Joker: You know, the only reason Dent's squeeze died is because you just couldn't control yourself to give me a good ol' punch to the stomach.

You look like Boy George in guy liner. Laughs.

AHH I LOVE IT!!

I tried to mind-beam "Cate Blanchett in Notes on a Scandal" to you, but it didn't work I guess. Oh well--can't have everything!

Sigourney facing off the alien in just her undies,what a diva!!!

I say Michelle Catwoman wins.
Though it's not smeared Make Up at all, Glenn Close in DL is great, too.

Fairuza Balk in THE CRAFT!!!

When you're in love with a married man, you shouldn't wear mascara.

Jake -- oh i'll include her. You know the banner scrolls during the week :)

Love your own pic, Nathaniel!
I don't remember clearly but I *think* John Cameron Mitchell has a running mascara scene as Hedwig and I love all his scenes so I love that too.

No one beats Michelle Pfeiffer as Catwoman when it comes to smeary mascara. For the men, with the Joker already up there, I'd put another comic book villain recently made flesh who also has a smudged makeup look: The Winter Soldier.

Oh no - I HATE to see you cry Nathaniel!!! :-(

I know she's not a particular favorite of yours but I squeaked when I saw Beyonce, not gonna lie. #whydontyouloveme

Jennifer Jason Leigh? Last Exit and Georgia, if I'm remembering right.

Looooove this banner. And I have to echo TB's comment. I was happy to see Beyonce up there. Love the video and disheveled glam of that bit from the Why Don't You Love Me video.
