THE
20s MAKEUP
The 20s woman had a nostalgic and melancholy look. Her makeup was almost theatrical, very pronounced, with strong colors.
Foundations
were used in very light shades, giving
the skin a very pale look. Powder
that was applied made
that the skin to
be matte, lackluster.
During
this period the heavily emphasized eyes were wearing. The focus is on shaping the eyes with dark shades, dramatic,
extended by blending to the brow bone. The
difference is the shape downward which was given eyes. Both upper
and lower eyelids
were outlined with
black eyeliner very
close to the lashes. The upper and lower
line, were joined to external corner of the
eye. They were
also applied generous coats
of mascara on the
eyelashes
Such eyes, eyebrows were descending form. Natural eyebrow was removed by
shaving or scorch
and completely redesigned with eyeliner pencil, in
a single line, extended to the temples
Blush
also was accentuated
following the line of cheekbone with shades of pink,
orange or garnet.
Lips
were strongly shaped, slightly thinned,
and the V's upper
lip was much accentuated. Lipstick was red, dark
red or brown.
THE
30s MAKEUP
Specific
makeup from the 30's is waxy skin look, woman
having a mysterious look, that look of the femme
fatale, revolutionary.
Foundation
that was used then was slightly, fluid, and over it was applied a slightly pink or an ivory face powder, so
making porcelain skin,
dull, no imperfections.
Downward
form of eye makeup is kept but the eye shadow is applied with lights and shadows. Multiple shades of eye shadow are used, increasing the
eyelid crease with a darker shade. Eyelashes are emphasized with multiple coats of mascara and
even the false eyelashes are used.
Eyebrows are the same as those of 20s, very thin and descending shape.
Cheekbones
were well defined with pink, red or garnet blush.
Lips
continue to remain strongly contoured, slightly thinned; they are in fact the centerpiece of makeup. Lipstick was matte, red-colored.
THE 40s MAKEUP

the 40's trend is
naturalness and sensuality.
Skin was matte,
slightly pale. Then, a foundation with high hiding power was
used and a face powder over it.

eyebrows slowly returned to their natural form.
The
liquid eyeliner was used for the first time, applied in thin line on the upper eyelid.
Mascara was applied in generous coats and false eyelashes were used.

were well defined in natural shades
of pink, lips returning
to natural form and lipsticks
are matte with intense
shades of red.

provocative yet very elegant.
Any
imperfection of the skin was well covered; women
face became almost
perfect with a sensual luminosity.
The
eye shadow colors were bright and shiny (ivory, silver, gray etc). The upper
eyelid crease was
beautifully shaped. It uses the liquid eyeliner forming so-called the "cat eye" makeup. False Eyelashes are also very
fashionable at the time.
The natural shape of the eyebrows is
maintained, being beautifully emphasized with
a contour pencil.
The
blush was applied on
the cheekbones, just below the
pupil, in colors of pink or dark red and the lips are perfectly outlined with a contour pencil. Lipstick color is bright red.

illuminated with white eye
shadow. The upper eyelid crease is
strongly shaped with dark colors,
even black. The makeup has a descending shape. The eyelashes
are strongly emphasized, very voluminous, applying then false eyelashes
on both upper eyelids and on the bottom.
Also,
the liquid eyeliner is used in
thicker lines, applied both upper eyelids
and on the bottom. In order for eyes look even larger on the lower eyelid conjunctiva was applied a white
pencil.

matte and light colored.
THE 70s MAKEUP
In
the 70's hippie trend
appears.
For the first time the bright skin and sun
tanning, is accepted. The makeup oscillates between
the soft style (for the day makeup) and the glamour and punk-rock style (for the
evening makeup).
The
smoky eyes
makeup is greatly promoted with colors
like green, blue, purple, brown and
black. The eye shadows
are
shiny, shimmery. The eyeliner is
frequently used to give eyes the "cat
eye" shape. The use of false eyelashes is abandoned.
The
blush has strong
shades of pink, orange or scarlet and for the lips are used strong colors, strident and shiny.
Extravagance is
what defines the 80s makeup.
At that time they used a lot of color, even exaggerated, for eyes, lips, clothes. The hair is teased; with much more
volume. The eye shadows are applied even
toward the eyebrows and they are
shimmery, in strident
tones, bright pink,
green, blue, purple, turquoise etc.
