    I presume the facial recognition would be trying to match against faces without the makeup.

    If you always use the same makeup pattern, then I guess it can latch onto that like anything else, if trained to do so.

    Also note that facial recognition tries to break down a face into discrete “pieces” so it can match a face in profile against the same face from the front. In your example the image is visually similar because they are both exactly the same angle, no ‘facial recognition’ involved. If it can’t figure out what a cheekbone is, what a nose is, generally what a ‘face’ is, then that would count as fouling the facial recognition because it would be unable to use a reference facial database.
