Častá chyba:
Learners sometimes confuse the noun "makeup" with the verb phrase "make up." "Makeup" (one word) is usually a noun meaning cosmetics, while "make up" (two words) is a verb, for example, "to make up a story." Learners also sometimes say *"wear a makeup"*; with this meaning, "makeup" is usually uncountable, so say "wear makeup" or "wear a lot of makeup," not *"a makeup."*
