I think less is more in terms of makeup in general.

I’ve basically been working really hard for the past couple years. And the nature of the film business is that movies come out when they come out, and these all just happen to be coming out at the same time.

And I felt that, if I knew so little about it, there must be others who should be educated about what's going on.
