Makeup Mavens Throughout the Ages

Something i've always been interested in is how trends change over time. I'm a big fan of anything vintage, and idolize old Moviestars and Starlets. I chose my favorite Makeup Maven from each decade to show how makeup has progressed over the years. They are all beautiful to me in different ways...Enjoy xo

1920's - Clara Bow

Very harsh brows and lips, minimal eye.

Short, cropped hair. Almost doll-like.

1930's - Jean Harlow

Pencil-thin brows, strong cupid-bow lips, and lovely bottom lashes.

Finger-waved, bleach-blonde curls.

1940's - Rita Hayworth

Softer brows, beautiful long lashes, soft smoky eye, and lighter defined red lips

1950's - Elizabeth Taylor

Finally some thick brows! Defined heavy/smoky eye, defined lips

1960's - Brigitte Bardot

Perhaps my favorite look of all time. Beautiful cat eye, light frosty lips, tosseled blonde curls

1970's Farrah Fawcett

What a change from the 60's huh? Overall lightened up look, fresh-faced base & blush, only a touch of mascara & lip. Very girl-next-door. Oh...and the hair, of course.

1980's - Brooke Shields

The 80's...oh dear. Wacky eye brows, colors, and just...everything.

1990's - Cindy Crawford

Brows on the thicker side, minimal eye, rosy lip.

2000-2010 - Angelina Jolie

I know these days, there are seemingly thousands of makeup looks to chose from - but I think Angelina nails it. Simple cat eye, face not overdone, and minimal lip. Oh, and being gorgeous might help a little too.

What's Your Favorite? ;)

This is my FAVORITE new mascara. How cool is it?!? As you can see, it has ONE brush, but can be used in two different ways.

If you are going for a more natural lash look, use the brush as shown in the second photo. The tube squeezes off the excess product, leaving you with a cleaner wand to work with. You could also use this way for the inner corners of the eye, or your bottom lashes.

If you're going for a more dramatic & thicker look, use the brush as shown in the third photo. This way does NOT squeeze the excess product off the brush, therefore giving you the ability to layer on more mascara.

I have been using this mascara non-stop since I got it! I used to be a huge Diorshow fan, but I can't get enough of this new MAC mascara. I own a few mascaras from MAC - Plushlash, Pro Longwear, Opulash, etc. This one blows them all out of the water! Definitely worth a try.

Has anyone else tried it? =)
