 I am portraying a member of the WACS, the Women's Army Corps. It was created in 1942 as a support element for the war effort. I'm wearing an authentic uniform used during the war. I do have an air core emblem on the shoulder as well as a medical core button. They take old makeup and then they color swap it and use it to create. This is Victory Red, which is styled 1945, like actual lip shade color. The Victory Red is a pretty bright red. This is a pretty bright red. They have a few other shades that are all very bright. Very bold bright red. The lady who created the company is a collector of vintage makeup. It's this natural progression of being able to really add some authenticity to re-enacting or just everyday dress or going to a 1920s party. You can actually wear a lip color that was known to be from that time period.
