Etymology: "Makeovers" is the plural of "makeover," so the noun's history is the history of that compound. It is formed from the verb phrase "make over," meaning to remake or transform something, with the noun "makeover" created by turning that phrasal verb into a noun. The plural simply follows the regular English pattern of adding -s to a countable noun, so each "makeover" is one instance of a transformation, whether of a room, a car, or a person's look.
