Make-up in psychological horror films isn't as dramatic as it would be in a zombie or vampire film, but it cans still have connotations of what the character is like, or why they're in this situation. The woman in this picture is wearing a white top to symbolize purity and innocence, this could make the audience feel empathy for her because she hasn't done anything wrong. The male on the other hand is wearing dark, scruffy clothes, which could imply that perhaps he deserves what's going to happen to him.
Also the surrounding is important to the film, because of the minimal make-up. It might represent what's happening on the inside of the characters minds, that they're mentally cracking and breaking like the theme of these pictures.
