I promise I still have tons of interesting things to share with you guys, I've just been busy with life. Hopefully this blog will pick up a bit after Christmas.
I love how often colour used to be used in makeup in the 50s. I wish makeup was used with more freedom nowadays. I get curious stares just for my red lipstick and cat eyeliner, let alone for blue and purple eyeshadow!
Neat! I think there're more than a few tricks I could pick up here! Thanks for sharing. Wish my eyebrows luck!

hah! I think women then hadn't so much trouble with choosing right lipstick colour :) there were so few available.
ReplyDeleteInteresting hat "Avocado"is marked as a lipstick color. I can't imagine what part of an avocado has a color one would want for a lipstick (the pit???)
