The Hey Good Looker Test

Kurakat has posted up pictures of the actresses in Da Chang Jin on his blog. I have no idea how he managed to find them, but you can see them as they look in Jewel in the Palace and in contemporary outfits.

It's worth a look. Some of them are really really pretty, like the actresses who played the villian Lady Cui, the goody two shoes Liansheng and sweetie pie Xin Fei.

The others look hideous in the period drama as compared to how they look like in real life. Looks like rebonded hair, make up and tonnes of photoshop do have their uses.

Period dramas are really harsh on actresses who were not born pretty of face. Partly because you will look fatter than normal due to the layers you need to wear and partly because all the drama mama hairdos, means the emphasis is on your FACE! Where because all the hair is swept back and tied into various drama mama hairstyles, the actress can not count on rebonded highlighted hair to help mask whatever flaws she has.

Hey, this could even be a good looker test to check out the natural good lookers from those who uses every single modern day comestic aid. It is fast, simple, and can be conducted anywhere and everywhere. Plus it's 100% accurate.
