check clothing on a atom. If not it might be a skin texture.

Make up is usually a Decal texture. Go to the skin textures tab on the person add it to the Decal/Face slot on the top left.

Saving a look saves almost everything (morphs/skin textures/clothing.) If you want to add just the makeup decals to different looks, just add them to the face decal slot of the look.
If the makeup textures you are using are packed in a Var file, you can unpack it in game with the package manager, or you can find the var in you "addon packages" folder and unzip it with winrar/7zip like any zip file. You can then copy the textures to edit them or copy them to another folder (don't move or edit the originals or things get confusing.)
I recommend making a folder with your name in Custom>Atom>Person>Textures>*YourName>*Makeup. and put your custom textures in there. That way you can add your custom textures easily from there.

Saving a look saves everything but the plug-ins you put on a model, if you want to save both the look and plug-ins use save preset, as for the makeup folder I'm not sure, since its a skin decal its already in a folder on your pc, you just have to know what to look for when you want to load it. Like you have the creators names and just search for that.
