I agree with Icewind007. Could someone please explain why putting on makeup on the train is considered bad manners? Activities such as taking up two seats, sitting in the priority seats, groping someone, listening to music that is too loud, eating food that has a foul smell, playing video games with the sound on, picking one's nose, or reading a large newspaper on a crowed train all directly disturb others on the train in someway. Putting on make-up does not seem much different than reading a small book on the train or playing with a Nintendo DS. Japheth Worthy claims putting makeup on the train is 'crass', but that is not really a strong argument.
