On the contrary they quite clearly include the credit: "Makeup by Dick Page".<br />The "no make-up" thing was, I suspect, invented by gossip/tabloid sites subsequently reproducing the images.

Otherwise, I'd be pointing out, as a woman who does wear black eyeliner, that the stuff is awfully stubborn, even in the face of the proper makeup remover, such that a woman can effectively always have some on. It wouldn't have to be intentional deception. But fair enough, Keira Knightley's special. <br /><br />Of course, what it means to feature the rare woman who looks like she's wearing heavy eye-makeup even if she's not in a spread about 'the natural look' is another question.Phoebe Maltz Bovyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17996039330841139883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7146512.post-59278931711758200952013-01-25T13:05:05.199-05:002013-01-25T13:05:05.199-05:00So your theory is that she fooled Joe Wright and t...So your theory is that she fooled Joe Wright and the entire make-up department by showing up every single morning already wearing make-up which they somehow didn't notice? I'm not convinced by that.<br /><br />In the other photo you've posted she's definitely wearing make-up. Is some of it may well be hiding the dark areas she's naturally got around the eyes, but that's not exactly easy to prove.<br />I'd guess <a href="http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j62/bizenya/normal_keirap3.jpg" rel="nofollow">this picture</a> is make-up free as it's a pap photo of her leaving a gym.<br />Her <a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-IJfaWj1-TfE/Tbiw9mxzbUI/AAAAAAAAFec/cU0Iac6hXV4/s640/Caleb-Knightley-looked-focused-on-the-matter-in-hand-as-he-prepared-himself-to-wed-Kerry-Nixon-in-front-of-family-and-friends-e1303741414489.jpg" rel="nofollow">brother</a> has a similar thing going on.<br /><br />Now, I'm not saying the photo in the original post is make-up free. (I really don't know and in any case a lot can be done just with lighting and post-processing.)<br />Just that the appearance of a bit of eye-liner doesn't in itself prove anything.<br />Ednoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7146512.post-34269916941691963002013-01-25T12:32:10.146-05:002013-01-25T12:32:10.146-05:00Great find!

But anything's possible! <br /><br />In all seriousness, it's definitely possible for someone to have darker lashes than hair otherwise, or to have shadows in places where makeup typically goes, or to have lips that are naturally redder than most, etc. This is not unheard-of. Knightley may arrive at whichever final look more readily than others. But unless we're to believe that <a href="http://hiclasswallpapers.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Keira-Knightley-wallpaper-2.jpg" rel="nofollow">in this photo</a>, massive amounts of makeup were used to make it look like Knightley didn't have heavy eye-makeup on, I'm not convinced that the no-makeup photo is as claimed.Phoebe Maltz Bovyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17996039330841139883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7146512.post-67188856255038522282013-01-25T12:24:16.776-05:002013-01-25T12:24:16.776-05:00This is from an interview Joe Wright did for Pride...This is from an <a href="http://www.thestranger.com/seattle/blow-up/Content?oid=22025" rel="nofollow">interview</a> Joe Wright did for Pride & Prejudice back in 2005:<br /><br /><i>Keira has a natural eyeliner. It’s really weird. She’s got these dark lines around her eyes. So the only makeup that was worn was by Keira, which was to paint out her natural eyeliner so that she’d look like she wasn’t wearing makeup, because otherwise it’d look like Keira was wearing makeup and no one else was. That’d be really crap.</i>Ednoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7146512.post-77553938853096106452013-01-25T11:13:35.544-05:002013-01-25T11:13:35.544-05:00Keira Knightley is a beautiful woman, but I'm ...<i>Keira Knightley is a beautiful woman, but I'm quite positive no one was ever born with eyeliner plus a subtle smokey eye.</i><br /><br />Ha!
