Simply passing through a portal into another world should not return old facial features (as shown when Gold traveled with the others to Neverland), and should not take them away again (passing into our world through a portal could not have removed her green skin either).

Also, after she died, the magic in her pendant was somehow returned to her, therefore she no-longer needed the pendant to perform magic, which allowed her to use the clover to disguise herself. Zelena is green in any magical realm, because of her envy. However, because that kind of magical appearance would break our world or something, it doesn't show in our world. Same reason why Gold doesn't look like Rumple, the fairies are human, etc. Well, addressing this. Rumple didn't look like Rumple in Neverland, because I would think they wouldn't put him in all his make-up thousands of times over and over. So, technically, any magical affliction or appearance should be on display in any magical realm, except Storybrooke. Yeah, not sure why Gold didn't revert to Rumple-style in Neverland. To be fair, it's not like Mary Margaret turned back into Snow, or Regina turned into the Evil Queen, or David turned into Charming either though. Although, you can argue that that is just clothing, but when the curse was undone in after the Neverland arc, they reverted. Snow's hair was long and everything. Besides that issue though, my theory is sound.
