Just in Time for Gatsby

Sarah at Mode Historique found this wonderful overview of vintage makeup styles of the 1920s, 30s, 40s, and 50s from Besame Cosmetics. You may need to register to see it.

Speaking of which, has anyone tried their lipsticks? It looks like the reds are a lot brighter than their color swatches (compare the color swatches to their models (again, you may have to register) — I’m a cranberry girl rather than an orange-red girl — but I’m tempted to try their Merlot shade. Anyways!
