I always find the eye lashes fascinating

Chantal Goya

Brigitte Bardot

Jane Birkin

Francoise Hardy

I totally agree with you cherry lips!

One more of Francoise Hardy!
Does it get better than this?.... when we talk french 1960s?
In my opinion,it does not!

I should buy fake lashes if I want to try this, huh? I don't know how I feel about glossy pink lips, though. I might have to do a glossy nude or pinkish-brown, I think, I'd feel awkward in bubblegum though some women carry it so well.

Is it possible to not look ridiculous in fake lashes without eyeliner, or should I learn eyeliner first?

I can see that I don't have a clue about the 60's. There's obviously a very sensual side of the late 60's that I was not aware of, something beyond the Twiggy-look, which I'm not that fond of (it's cute on some people). But this, this I love...

There absolutely is, not just the late 60's, and I adore it! Also, think of the music (non-psychedelic).

I love these:

The 60's are my favorite era.

Classic 60's style is definitely Jean Shrimpton. Hair with volume,nude lips and heavy liner and big lashes.

I think for a modern take, Penelope Cruz in her Mango ads does the 60's style quite nicely.

I'm not a big fan of 1960's make-up however I do like Marilyn's make-up from her final and uncompleted movie "Somethings' Got to Give":

 

[old-days]

Oh, me too! I also adore the sixties stewardess look
and the cheerleader look
[1962-63

nice

 

[LaMedicine]

Not actress pictures but

And not exactly a hair and makeup pic, either, but everyday pics, last day of school, June 1964, 9th grade.
Teenage girls are wannabes in any era lol

Off topic, I'm going to have to play this one for my daughter. She wants to try out for American Idol, and her voice would go well with this song. One of the songs she is going to do is Be My Baby.

I totally like this look, yay for marilyn

 

[Inky]

I totally like this look, yay for marilyn

she was so very lovely. she breaks my heart in this picture - and that sixties eyeliner is great though!

 

[HadleyH]

Very 1960s

Beautiful Peggy Lipton. She appeared in one of the leading roles on the successful 1960s TV series "The Mod Squad".

 

[cecil]

When I was a kidlette in the 60's I wanted to be Marlo Thomas from "That Girl." I think it was the hair, eyelashes and eyeliner!

Inky I embrace you! lol I went through a huge 60s thing in high school. I took this very picture in to the hairdresser and got this cut. I wore white go-go boots and denim miniskirts to school. My teachers called me Gidget! lol

 

[cherry lips]

Penelope Tree

I first heard of her through the song that I've linked to below, but apparently "The Tree" was as famous as "The Twig".

I found this fascinating:
Scars from late-onset acne ended her career in the early 1970s: "I went from being sought-after to being shunned because nobody could bear to talk about the way I looked." (Wikipedia)

 

[Inky]

Inky I embrace you! lol I went through a huge 60s thing in high school. I took this very picture in to the hairdresser and got this cut. I wore white go-go boots and denim miniskirts to school. My teachers called me Gidget! lol

I bet you looked FAB with your own Marlo look!! And here's another similarity - my nickname in my pre-teen years was "cecil" because my real name is Cecilia. But everyone calls me Inky now in real life too.

cherry lips, ~ Penelope Tree! ~ Yes!!!!! :eusa_clap




Also, lovely Marianne Faithfull, Mick Jagger's girlfriend. Fun clothes, nice longish messy hair, the essence of 1960s style

 

[cherry lips]

Ooo, I love Marianne Faithfull! Especially her 60s music, sad eyes, and the way she looks today! So cool.
