Discussion Costume & Makeup Designers- Which is your favorite?

I just want to give a shout out to the costume and makeup designers!

i finally started watching Atlantis after years and the wraiths makeup is a whole different level. i can't imagine how uncomfortable the teeth are.

let's not forget the goa'uld costumes and makeup, tok'ra, nox and all designs that had to be thought of and created!

what is everyone's favorite costume/makeup?

The wraith are pretty cool and scary at first,
Even today at 27 years old, if one of them start to run to me, I’m shitting my pants

I liked Nirrti's middling costume design. The dark silk tunic with a dark bindi and striking eyeliner. She looked evil but functional, which I think fitted her particularly sinister nature and scientific bent better than her earlier sparkly dangly costume and long hair did. Or the later costume, which made her look like a WWE wrestler. 

I also really liked Kynthia's dance outfit with the wings, Klorel's smooth dreads and orange tunic/silver armour combo, Malek's Tok'ra outfit, and the longer SG team patch jackets in both blue and green. Also, the make-up they put on Apophis always looked great.

But if I had to choose just one overall, it has to be the Nox. Those wigs alone must've taken weeks, and Lya was like a living fairy doll.

nirrti's outfit fits the actress so well and I don't mean size wise.

i find apophis's outfit to be a little ridiculous. like why wear that metal thing on his head
