Despite [[WesternAnimation/WinxClub the Trix girls]] being the page pic, guys can wear Excessive Evil Eyeshadow, usually in the form of {{Guyliner}}. They also tend to be a lot... ''quirkier''... than other guy villains. It's also worth noting that this SubTrope of ObviouslyEvil is so exclusively villainous that it's rare to see even {{Anti Hero}}es use Excessive Evil Eyeshadow[[note]]most {{Anti Hero}}es who do usually are {{Nineties Anti Hero}}es at best[[/note]]. If the character also wears a lot of makeup in addition to the excessive evil eyeshadow, expect them to be a MonsterClown. When the darkness is natural, rather than from cosmetics, it's CreepyShadowedUndereyes -- and sometimes it's hard to tell which of the two the character has going on, because they have what looks a lot like eyeshadow, but no apparent way to acquire it or time to apply it, so apparently their skin spontaneously generates it.

Added DiffLines:

* Subverted in ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfKorra'': Asami Sato, who wears prominent eyeshadow and eyeliner unlike most of the heroic female characters, was originally designed to be a villain in a straight example of this trope. However, her role in the story changed to where she is firmly heroic, but her design was unchanged, leaving Asami at most looking somewhat suspicious when she's mistakenly accused of being a spy.
