I think most girls that comes from firstanalquest.com looks better there compared to LP. And then you have softcore like nubiles, metart and such where they look even better. My point is; The style matter so much in how i percieve the looks of the girls. I have time and time again discovered girls that i really think looks cute and then i reaslise, "wait that is the girl i scrolled by in LP cuz she didn`t look good enough....
Whatdo you think? Could a leap in style increased the appeal even more? I think so.
Some examples:

Although the natural look for the both of them is really great, both of them look even better with their Gio-look.

Depends on the girl. A natural look suits some girls but not others. I always thought Olivia Devine looked better without all the make up and with her everyday clothes on - though don't get me wrong, she looked great anyway! Kira always looks good.

With Gio here and most of the other guys. These girls look way hotter LP style. I mean, it's porn. I see natural girls every day. Don't need that look here.

So, heavy makeup is better than natural?

In most cases I prefer the natural look of a girl.
And to refer to the example of the beginning: especially the natural look of Sweet Hole is much more "yes, she has something special".
For me her "porn look" is just a look like many other porn girls too.

Reviving this thread because I think it's an interesting and relevant topic.
I completely agree with mr.mystica here. LP studios use way too much makeup for my tastes. Kira is absolutely stunning in that natural picture while I find the LP-style picture boring and generic. What's the point with shooting scenes with young girls if you put so much makeup on them that they look like grannies from the US with ageing issues?
If the LP styling was superior, all the soft-core sites would be using it, but they don't because they actually know what they are doing. There is no way a soft-core site would survive if they styled their girls the way LP does. Similarly, if the LP studios were to start shooting vanilla content, they could never compete with the likes of firstanalquest, while maintaining this level of styling. I imagine sales could be a lot better if the LP-style ass-fucking was combined with soft-core-level styling. Mister Ananas seems to be aware of this issue, so I hope at least some of his test kitchens will attempt to remedy this.

Indeed.
We can always say this is about taste, but if it is, then why not have different syles to please more viewers?

Nice thread: thanks for having revived it. It comes immediately to my mind the overheavy makeup seen on Monica Wild in her latest scene (okay, it's not from a main LP studio) with Alita Angel, who has instead a more decent one. I think that in many cases the MU artists at GG and GONZO overdo with makeup, which in the end hides the natural beauty of a girl and often, as already noticed, lets them appear older. I'm not saying here not to use any makeup, just to use it better, enhancing and not diminishing a woman's attractivness. It's of course also up to the kind of girl and to her age which makeup better suits. So the rather strong makeup seen on Paris Devine in her latest scene for GONZO somehow suits her face with strong lines of a 29yo woman, whereas it would appear certainly overdone on a young girl like Isabella DeLaa, for example. Ultimately, as often, lesser is better.

You're right GreyOwl its a balance & as always should be based on the ladies best qualities, at her age & method of photogenity. But I remember Eurobabeindex etc slating Giorgio for "aging" & "vamping" beauties like Alisa, & two favourites of mine, Anastasia (Miller), & Jenny (Simpson). Truth is, they were great stylistic choices, very powerful 10 years on.

Sorry netzerkaiser, those examples are a complete horror-show to me. I find the vast majority of NRFTA content completely unwatchable due to that form of styling and the many times horrendous image quality. I get really depressed thinking about the amount of beautiful young girls whose only DP-scenes were with that type of styling.

Some women look great with no make up, or hardly any make up, and some don't, that's no mystery. Even though I usually prefer the natural look, it's good to mix it up a bit and occasionally have heavy, vampy make up, if only just to see if the girl suits it or not. I do like the Goth look, which has a lot of heavy make up, but it just doesn't work with some girls.

I would NEVER have guessed that anyone would prefer the "experienced sex worker" look to the natural, "girl next door" look, but apparently many do. Wish there was more variety, but I guess this isn't the site for it.

I do like the natural look but I also like a really slutty look with lots of eye make-up in particular. The problem with the LP pics of Kira and Alita there is that they aren't really either. They just look like catwalk models or such like. A little bland and functional for me. So yeah, in those instances I much prefer their natural look.
A much bigger problem is the style of the scenes on LP. There is literally nothing for me here at all right now - I'm just closing down the trailers after a few seconds when I see the first arm twist/throat grab/horrible ego play from a guy or guys etc. Now that is reducing the beauty of the girls as what is the point of having a sexy girl in a hardcore porn scene when you're just going to overpower her and reduce her to a rag doll? This might be very slightly off topic in this thread but I guess I needed somewhere to have a bit of a rant ha ha ha. I have a small number of tickets left, which I'll be using on old scenes and then I really can't wait to be shot of this place. Not pleased to be saying that but LP's current content is really miserable and totally unsexy stuff with the girls and their beauty/sexuality/personalities just completely flattened beneath a pummeling male-dominant style.

Thanx for bringing my post back btw

Makes me feel i`m not all alone after all.
Let me make it clear. This is not about me needing to arrest people for having a different taste than me. I`m was just giving my point of view and presenting it in form of a question, so others have the chance to present their point of view.
AND may i add: Doesn`t this point to the opportunity to create a porn site that can present different choices? 1. A "slutty sexworker- look" 2. A "girl next door look" 3. A "beauty shoot- look". So you could experience one girl in many different ways. That would also make it more meaningful to have a lot of scenes with the same girl. You know, more that one stye that defines LP equals less repetition and less repetitions will generate less chance of getting bored. Pretty logical, if you ask me

What do you think Giorgio?
What about having different "versions" of what LP is about, so you could attract even more consumers.

These girls don't look what I imagine to be "slutty sexworkers". They're fresh faced young lovely women who also had natural scenes. They look like they've just dressed up for the night like many normal young women do once or twice a year.

I'd hang on in there Vulture, if you can afford it. I prefer the forum to new scenes, situation being what it is. TBH, I'm relieved my collection is coming to an end, the only spring that annoyingly almost is still in full flow, are the huge amount of young beautiful North American girls of northern European descent, still entering the business. But a part of me does recognise it all for the time thief it is... but then another part of me sees it as a harmless pursuit, far less soul-consuming than falling in & out of love & all the waste of your life that go with it, if you're a romantic, that is. Keeping tabs on the porn world does for me, to use the annoying phrase, 'keep things real', paradoxical though that may sound.

Well, I agree with your thoughts and didn't think you got enough recognition in this thread as it were. I completely agree with you suggestion of varying the style for a girl across different scenes. Since I'm obsessed with gangfucked teens I would of course like to see that highlighted more often. Since actual teens doing these sort of scenes are rare enough, ruining the natural teen look with excessive makeup just doesn't make sense. I can't be the only perv who wants to see natural 18 year olds get gangbanged, but it simply doesn't exists on the whole fucking Internet! It's madness! See
this post for an example of what I'm talking about.

I think this should be the ideal for every MU @ LP studios.
Just look at the girls in Clubs around Ukraine for instance. Of course they use MU, but most do a good job just enhancing their natural beauty. Same in Prague Clubs. Its so easy basically, or at least it looks like it was!
Good porn MU is hard to come by still, but not so much for technique, but social qualities BTS.
Anyway, sb else noticed like Eveline Dellai just did her MU herself recently @ gonzo?

Yes, I think girls doing their own make up is a good idea - although not all of them might be as good at it as Eveline, or look as good!

I could've gone further, DAPAddict, agreeing in principle with what you said. The make-up in the NRFTA stuff (not the costumes of course) directly reminds me of some lovely normal ladies I've always encountered, that go to work in the supermarket or garage, each day, overcaking their eyelids with pink make-up etc... it reminds me to both a comical & endearing level.

I think it was nr4ta style of distancing, but I dont see the same tradition in GIO or GLab today really.
If you do, point me there, please!

Given that variety is always good and some playing with the makeup is also good, according to the model and possibly to a theme (a Halloween themed scene will require of course a proper, different MU), It's clear that a good makeup can do pretty much for a woman's attractiveness. The latest scene with Light Fairy is a good example of not best makeup: see as a comparison her in the PRIVATE scenes, so much better. Or see how a heavy makeup affects, in my eyes diminishes, a model's beauty in the Isabella De Laa's thread: in some glamour pics she's hardly recognizable as herself.

Light Fairy’s latest scene is a good example of how not to do makeup imho. She is a girl that benefits from no or very light and ‘natural’ makeup. What they’ve put on her in that scene just doesn’t suit her.
Another example is Mina. I love her natural look, and the right makeup accents her beauty even more. But if you look at her only IV scene, she is barely recognizable, truly a shame.

Totally agree. Another good example of bad makeup is Tabitha Poison's first scene for IV: she looks so much better in the following videos.

Hey, typical 80s makeup and hairdo on the lovely Kate Bush. It's clearly overdone, but at that time it was fine and sexy. Yes, it's also a matter of fashion and trends. If you think of which hairdos Tracy Lords and Christy Canyon sported, you'll recognize that today they were totally weird and out of place.

I thought it was just me. Could not agree more. I am left cold by the current releases and have not purchased anything for a while and when I have have been left disappointed with the constant slapping/degrading whatever.. Not the LP of old
