Hollywood Eyebrows Makeup Tutorial from 1938, taken from the original British Pathe newsreel "Beautifying! Where To Put The Accent!"

Iconic makeup specialist Jean Barrie, introduced here as the "Editress of Woman's Fair Magazine" gives a supposedly plain girl a makeover adding eyebrows, eyelashes and lipstick.

We then see a demonstration on an older woman with a fuller face.

The final section of the video tackles glasses and discusses which types of spectacles a lady should wear.
