EVERYONE! Get some blue mascara.
I definitely had some when I was younger and now people are starting to remember that this is a thing that exists, along with everything else from the 90’s.
This is perfect for the days when you want something easy and interesting going on with your face and/or when you just want to run out the door.
To me, it feels similar to wearing red lips with a clean face, but you don’t have to reapply!
I’m going to buy some right now. Purple would be nice too, huh?
It’s been awhile since the facemagician has conjured anything for your peepers so here’s some old hollywood eyebrows.
Who are you? An Audrey, a Lauren, or maybe even a Marilyn?
I honestly expect reblogs from all of my followers that are online right now. I don’t care what kind of blog you have, this is important to me.

This is Twiggy doing her signature eye. This technique makes your eyes look giant and was very popular during the sixties.
she looks like a dark, russian fairytale bride
Thinking about a similar look for a photoshoot…..this would also be a fancy sparkly new years eye.
The eyeliner and brow routine is really interesting.
I can sit here and do the whole thing in my sleep. Put the base all over, lightly. The formula we used that perfectly matched her natural flesh tone was to mix a quart of Max Factor’s ‘sun tan base,’ a half cup of ‘ivory’ coloring, and an eyedropper of ‘clown white.’ Then, highlight under her eyes. Pull the highlight out over and across the cheekbones to widen. Highlight her chin. Eyeshadow was toned, and that also ran out to her hairline. Then the pencil on top. I’d outline her eyes very clearly with pencil, but I’d make a peak right up-say almost three-sixteenths of an inch- above the pupil of her eye, and then swing it out there. And from there on out was where we put eyelashes. Also, the bottom line was shaded in with a pencil to make her eyes stand out fully and good. Her eyebrows came out to a point at far as I could get them to widen her forehead. So I’d bring them to a peak just outside the center of her eyes and then sweep down to a good-looking eyebrow. You couldn’t go out much farther than that or it would look phony. Shading broke the bones underneath her cheekbone. I just brought a little line down there, a little darker shadow, so that it helped her stand out. Lipstick, we used various colors. At first, we had a hell of a time with Cinemascope- no reds photographed anything but auburn. We had to go to light pink.
