Why does Hollywood have actors wearing wrist guards?
Answer: to hide the watch shadow.
I know, I know many here are too young to remember actually wearing a wrist watch. Back in the olden days many of us had white bands on our wrists in the shape of our wrist watch.. all the skin around the watch being exposed to the sun and thus tanned.
Make-up rubs off of the wrist quickly as wrists tend to rub on things.
