Silent Hunter: Not that I could tell (I am after all a bloke), but an episode of CSI Miami apparently features Calleigh having perfect hair and makeup. After having just ended up in a swamp.
Thausgt: I might consider this trope to be related to Contractual Immortality, in that the actor is never to be shown in a non-flattering light, even when they are well and truly dead and on the slab in the morgue.
Athcnv: What is the name of the trope similar to this, but they are terminally ill in hospital (but still made up perfect?) I had a lampshade for the Chinese/ Hong Kong movie "All's Well, Ends Well 2009", where a woman gets bandages taken off, and her make up is perfect. Her boyfriend asks the doctor why this is so, and the doctor replies that he used to be a beautician!
