Make-up from the Golden Era

[MK]

.

Sorry to get everyone's hopes up but I will not be able to do a class on make-up. I am leaving this Saturday morning for a business trip, return on Wednesday afternoon and leave for the Queen Mary Friday morning. There just isn't enough time to get everything together. If you would like, I can have an informal chat and bring a couple of conversation pieces from my vintage make-up collection and give a few pointers.

Sounds great to me! I have a vintage makeup book I can bring along. But since you're the pro, you wouldn't be needing such things

?

I have a whole library of them. Which one do you have?

 

[Lauren]

Vintage Face, the book by Daniela Turidich that's out of print now- the one that goes over styles from the 20's to the 50's.

Any books on vintage make up would be lovely to browse through. And pointers would be appreciated, as well. Thanks for offering even when scrunched for time.

Too bad you aren't doing the demo. It would've been so fabulous.

 

[MK]

Don't worry....

....we will have a great chat about it and perhaps a few pointers.

BTW: The best place for make-up books is here:

OK

I have a few goodies packed along with a rare make-up book from the golden era.

My favorite period is 1930's Old Hollywood- and I LOVE the makeup looks~ I love photographer George Hurrell and he often assisted in makeup direction or application himself- these are some of my favorite Hurrell images, the makeup is flawless:
