MAKE-UP TIMELINE - The Makeup Look from 1910's to 1950's

Further to the last big post on the history of Glamour Makeup, here is a visual representation or
Makeup Timeline from the film The Powder and the Glory.
It serves as a great vintage makeup guide.

The Powder & the Glory, a 90-minute documentary narrated by Jane Alexander, tells the story of two of the first highly successful women entrepreneurs.Elizabeth Arden and Helena Rubinstein. One hundred years ago these women immigrated to America and, starting with next to nothing, created what is today the $150 billion global health and beauty industry.

  13. I think that wonderful
    But the world lost feminine look on everyday street
    Only women from eastern countries still surprised unexpectedly these western countries.

    And that because during communism they suffered
    of shortage these glamor.
    Western girls used to it and tied of glamor
    When I cane to USA in 1994 I was on another planet because nobody used a dress.

    I bought a dress with roses for summer
    because in my country still women wear dresses
    in summer.
    I found out how masculine world here became
    and un sexy no flirt between man and woman on the street.

    gives me opinion of no charming country USA became
    I like more Europe
    People look on me when I were a dress to the local restaurant
    But I were dresses lot in overseas and nice clothes
    Please return glamor for the streets of this country
    Please
    Don't make a s a too casual country!!!

  14. The blush in the 1950's makeup is in the wrong position. It should be high up on the cheekbones.
