Does this mean her current incarnation (weird makeup, hair etc) is nothing more than that, just a front to promote sales.

I'm pretty sure the word you're looking for is 'symbology'.
sym⋅bol⋅ism
/ˈsɪmbəˌlɪzəm/ Show Spelled Pronunciation [sim-buh-liz-uhm]
–noun
1. the practice of representing things by symbols, or of investing things with a symbolic meaning or character.
His vote is a symbol of what he truly believes and/or what he believes is representative of the state/district that elected him. By the time it was his turn to actually vote, it was irrelevant whether he was for or against the health care bill - hence, his vote was purely symbolic.
Also,
sym⋅bol⋅o⋅gy
/sɪmˈbɒlədʒi/ Show Spelled Pronunciation [sim-bol-uh-jee]
–noun
1. the study of symbols.
2. the use of symbols; symbolism.
Unruly Republicans Disrupt Health Care Debate

Putting aside the illegality and intrusiveness of this socialized medicine bill, do you believe the government of FEMA, the post office, Amtrak and GM--the same government which couldn't meet its own quota of H1N1 flu shots--can efficiently and more cheaply run 1/6th of the economy better than private companies?
Do you really think Pelosi will make good on her threats in this monstrosity of a bill and throw people in jail for not buying health insurance?

His vote either way would not have made a difference in the outcome, aside from symbolism.
