Vintage makeup styles

June 29th, 2010 Kate

Throughout all the examples offered for vintage makeup styles there must have been at least one that seemed appropriate for you and that characterized your personal style…. We continue with a hippie makeup style that is certainly really well loved nowadays because there are more and more ladies that adopt that particular way of getting dressed.

This makeup style is based on natural elements and colors and it isn’t hard to realize at all. Use a natural makeup foundation and you can be sure that you won’t fail.

The next thing that we want to mention about concerns the eyebrows, there’s also a tendency towards really thin brows, but they don’t look vulgar at all. We continue with the eye makeup: use natural eye shades, play with your imagination and don’t apply for dramatic pieces (like the eyeliner or extreme colors), accentuate the eyes with the help of mascara that will be used in extra layers on both the eyelashes areas. As for the lips we recommend you to use pink towards nude tones and these will go really fantastic in combination with the other cosmetic products that we’ve suggested previously.

So, that was our first suggestion of vintage makeup style, but be sure that there are other more to come in order for you to make a general thought and apply for these in every day of the week: it would be a really fine experience, isn’t that right? We jump from natural elements and details to a chic makeup style that characterizes the disco period: highlighted eyes and lips and a fantastic looking effect. So, there are the blue tones used on the eyelids and the purple tone as well. Another thing that can be noticed is the black eyeliner that comes to focus all the attention towards the eyes.

And if you want really highlighted eyes then you can apply for using fake eyelashes and this is a fantastic thought. When it comes to the lips: we recommend a spicy tone and a creamy stick that will give the impression of full and healthy lips.

Our last suggestion of vintage makeup refers to the 80s in which all the attention was towards this glamorous makeup style in which there were used dark eyeshades and the eternal scarlet red on the lips. We’re speaking of a powerful woman that blends perfectly all the styles and she knows how to give a modern touch to every area of her complexion.

Use dramatic shades in your cheeks as well with the help of the blush and use around the eyes dark tones that will give a dramatic look throughout the smoky eyes makeup. End with adding red lipstick that will confer you a fantastic looking style and the sensation of really kissable lips!

Vintage makeup styles – 1950s and 1960s

June 28th, 2010 Kate

As you could observe with your own eyes vintage makeup styles are numerous and they involve several elements involved and throughout the years it has “suffered” several changes of motifs and makeup products involved.

For instance we’ve presented some vintage makeup styles beginning from the 1910s up to 1940s: the classical dark eye shadow around the eyes, voluptuous and well contoured lips, the classical red lip teint and the very well loved thin line made with the help of the liquid eyeliner. These elements are very well used in our days as well and are really well loved- to be more precise, we reckon that these will going to be well loved always and they look certainly fantastic on complexions.

We continue with some other classical styles that can be observed as being well loved in our modern days and we’re sure that you’re going to feel enchanted after you read about these. Bright lipstick was really trendy and en vogue, the pale aspect of the face in combination with this fantastic looking tone is also well loved and we’ve been observing it throughout our times as well. The eyebrows were a small bit thicker than usual and highlighted with the help of a darker tone of kohl. The eyes were highlighted with the help of a really natural tone of eye shadow, and a small bit dark in the same time. As for the eyelashes we recommend you to apply extra layers of mascara on the upper ones….

From the 1950s we jump to the 1960s where there was a tendency towards softer looks and this is done of course throughout the makeup. The makeup foundation used is very natural looking, you can observe natural shades in the cheeks and the eyebrows have natural dimensions: not too thick or too thin. The rest of the makeup is also pretty natural: the eyeshades used are really light and pale in tones and the lips look also natural, with fresh and nude tones of lipstick.

We forgot to mention that the eye shadows used are applied on both the eyelids and highlight the eyes in a gorgeous manner and give a different aspect than the other vintage makeup styles presented up to this moment. You can add a slight dark shadow underneath the arcade and you’re going to obtain a fantastic looking aspect. As a final touch, we recommend you some extra layers of mascara on the upper and inferior eyelashes: this is quite a sensual and cute looking makeup style if you know how to blend the elements indicated by us.

The lip stick used needs to be in a very creamy tone and try to find a natural tone; you can also apply for a nude tone because you won’t fail with it clearly.

Gintage makeup styles

June 26th, 2010 Kate

The vintage makeup style is adopted in our days as well and it’s really en vogue. Ok, it isn’t adopted entirely (only for haute couture shows, because you can’t go like this on the street). The modern woman has taken some elements from this type of makeup and we really recommend her (you) to continue in this manner because well she does.

We start with a fantastic style that is based on highlighting both the lips and the eyes.  You’re going to like it as soon as we describe it to you and it’s certainly pretty well known to you.

We start with the basics: the makeup foundation should be really light in tone and it should give one the impression that you have porcelain face. We continue with the eyebrows, which were always painted and you can paint them or drag a line with the help of contour kohl which is in a warm tone and lighter than your natural hair color.

The eyes are essential in this type of makeup as you certainly have to highlight them with the help of the eyeshade that you choose to use. This time we’re speaking of an eye shade that has brown tone, but it is also combined with a red tone in it. Take the brush and play with it around your eyes on the superior and on the inferior eyelid as well. As for the inferior eyelid we recommend you to trace a line with the help of brown contour kohl and this will certainly highlight your makeup better. End with a slight touch of mascara and you’re going to see just how fantastic you look.

The lips need to look as if they’re freshly painted and you have to contour these perfectly. The lip stick that you use has to be shiny and it doesn’t need any shimmery elements in it, it’s enough to have a creamy texture.

Enough about the type of vintage makeup that we’ve suggested above, there are many other that need to be presented and that you have to take into consideration in case you want to attend a party or something like that.

For this makeup style we recommend you to use a natural tone of makeup foundation, which is very close to your natural one. In the cheeks use a blush that can’t be noticed that simple and with a beige tone. The eyebrows should be left natural as they are, and really skinny in the same time, without applying for the usage of contour kohl or to dye them.

The eyes are really expressive and you can apply for the usage of a natural tone of beige or brown on the upper eyelid and a really light eyeshade on the arcade area. On the inferior eyelids you need only to trace a line with the help of contour kohl exactly on the eyelashes line. End with adding extra layers of mascara on the superior eyelashes and you’re going to see just how fantastic you’re going to look. Also, for the lips we recommend a classical red, scarlet or any other tone as long as it’s matte.

You need a purple eye shadow and pencil, a blue crayon and a purple blush. Here’s how you apply all the makeup products on your face: start with contouring your eyes with that blue pencil that we’ve just mentioned and make sure you apply it strongly on the upper eyelids. The next thing is to start from the interior corner of the superior eyelid and add purple eye shade up to the eyebrows and on them. You can continue with the rest of your face and apply blush in that pink – purple tone:  use it on the forehead and on your cheeks as well.

The lips have to have a really natural tone, use a creamy nude tone of lip gloss and just see how fantastic your lips will be looking.

The eyelashes can be a key thing when it comes to fantastic looking makeup and some times you can have a makeup style that is based only on the eyelashes you’re wearing. The only thing that we suggest to you is that you don’t apply for kitsch eyelashes with feathers and different other elements on them, because these don’t make you look that fantastic and they give you an unpleasant aspect.

You may adopt the smoky eyes makeup and with these eyelashes to intensify your eyes. Sometimes it’s enough to adopt a long pair of eyelashes and just that and you’re going to look sufficiently glamorous and if you add some layers of mascara on these, you’re going to look incredible! Let’s see how you can apply eyelashes?

You can go to a cosmetics salon and let a profession hand take care of it or you can place them with your own hands with the special glue and armed with patience, just pay attention. We recommend you to go to a professional person when it comes to fake eyelashes or eyelash extensions.

Also, for extra effect you can apply for using liquid eyeliner or a contour kohl in the interior side of your eyes.
