It's a whole different makeup palette to make someone look pale, and that's what's going on here. If you have a good eye, when they close up on Emma's face, you can see that the reddened eyes are eyeliner and shadow and they've splotched her face-- like she's been crying. Like you would expect someone going through an emotional, moral and existential crisis. Except the problem is that people don't get it is on purpose, and they are complaining that her makeup team is doing a bad job, because she looks sick or old or whatever, or they are worried that the actress (Jennifer) is actually sick, etc. I guess we can chalk that up to the when your too good, your no good, lol. I don't know why people think Jennifer is sick or Emma being sick, but I guess maybe they laid it on a little too heavy (especially with no real mention of it/ looking like that when she was freezing to death, and her being not prominent in last week's episode, so like three weeks back to remember)
