Girl Next Door Vintage Make Up (pt. 1)

Part two: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GrwpNsr1zTE

How to liven up and add a healthy glow to the "traditional" 1940s make up look. Perfect for gals with fair skin who feel washed out by many of the 40s makeup looks.

This video came about after one of the ladies who reads my blog wrote me asking if I knew any tricks to add some color to her 1940s look. She said that with the bright red lip, neutral eye, and black liner, she felt it was a little harsh with her pale skin. So here are my tips and tricks for doing just that! I know some of these will be "old hat" for some, but I hope a few people find it helpful!

Be sure to drop by my blog for more: http://blog.caseybrowndesigns.com

@tinerda I'd love to, but unfortunately my hair is a lot longer right now than it was in this video (posted two years ago). I'll keep it in mind though!

[tcaf4121]

heyyyyyyyyyyyyyy how do you do your hair like that?

I'm going to be in a play based in the 40's next month and this is the perfect makeup for it, because normally 40's makeup AND stagelights would make even the tannest person look totally ghostly with a flash of a red lip. So this is great!

You are so beautiful!

[polytypyitqfp]
