VINTAGE MAKEUP IS MAKING A COMEBACK

Trends come and go, and I should know. I have been doing makeovers for 50 years! WOW! The 60's and 70's were the decades of glamour, when some of the most iconic beauty looks were created - winged eyeliner, red lips, and false lashes.
I can't believe time flies so fast when you are having fun. We have estimated that I have done well over 10,000 makeovers and I still love helping women find that perfect look for their makeup personality.
Whether you are a Makeup Diva or a Career Minimalist or a Soccer-mom Naturalist you will find one of these trends that you will like. Maybe you just might want to try them all depending on who wakes up in the morning.
Hollywood 50's Glam-The 50's Red Lips and Old Hollywood Glam is making a comeback! This is basically a classic look which focuses on all the details. First you need a base that gives the appearance of a flawless complexion. HG Stick Foundation will give the best cover-up for age spots and imperfections.
Some of my clients use the Stick Foundation as a light base or concealer and then add the Liquid Mineral Foundation for the perfect skin. Next contour under the cheekbones with our new Contour Powder and sweep your favorite Mineral Glow Blush over apples. Define your brows with an Indelible Brow Pencil which is waterproof to last all day. Use the Indelible Eye Liner to extend the eyes outward. Get your red lips with the new Vegan Lipstick color Marashino (a cool cherry red) or Last Tango (a warm earthy red.) With a little practice, you can look like a glamorous star too!
Big and Bold 60s -
How bold can you go? The 'cat eye' became even bolder by adding another black line in the crease. The new Felt Tip Liner creates the perfect 'cat eye' and if you can handle it, the line in the crease as well. The thin groomed brow became the thick and bold groomed brow. Create a thicker brow by adding Brush On Brow after defining with the Indelible Eyebrow Liner. Twiggy led the way by adding painted-on lashes under her eyes and rest is history. This look is not for the bashful, but might be fun for a girl's night out!
Soft and Sunkissed 70's- The bold liners and lumpy mascara of the last decade evolved into the California glow with soft shadows and sun-kissed neutrals on the cheeks and lips.
Start with the Luminous Foundation with its subtle glow camouflaging imperfections. Add your favorite Mineral Glow Blush across the apples.
Check out our new eye shadow kits like the Bridal Trial with its shimmer neutrals to create a naturally softer look.The new Color Stick Lips add a hint of soft color. Finishing up this sun kissed look, top off the entire face Satin Glow Baked Finishing Powder. This is a great dewy look good for all.
Sunkissed Turns 80's Diva-
Leaving the 70's the pendulum swings heavy for the Makeup Diva to colored eyeshadows, dark eyeliner, big hair, and shoulder pads. Maybe you remember the TV Series called 'Dallas!' I loved those days. Every makeup artist did. If you love the 80's diva, try the Circus or Arizona Sky Eye Pallets.
For Blush, try Coral Sun or Rose Marble, but contour first with one of our new Contour Powders! This look demands lip color and our new Vegan Lipsticks will finish your look.
Diva's To The Nude 90's- The Nudes of the nineties will always be with us, because it created a new makeup jandra!! Is it makeup or is it sunscreen or is it a moisturizer? BB Creams are great for the nude look. They are like a moisturizer, a sunscreen, and makeup all in one product. They do go on sheer and are great for summer outings like the beach for those of us who wear makeup everywhere.
But for the minimalist, this nude look is perfect. Mineral Matte Blushes go on so natural and nude-like. The matte shadows in Chocolate Bar can be used for nud-ish lid color, contour, and liner. To use as eyeliner, simply wet an eye shadow brush, dip in dark brown shadow, and paint just above the lashes.
This type of eyeliner creates a softer look for the Nudes. Finish with one of the clearish Lip Plumping Glosses and Voila! Now, you have the Nineties Nudes!
