1950’s Trends

Pastels and Powder (light pinks, greens, yellows were common)

Blusher ( came in common colors of pink and red) aimed to get a flushed look

Eye Shadow (commonly expected to match blush and compliment outfit for any occasion) (shades of grey, brown, green, and blue were common)

Mascara (listed as essential and sometimes includes a line on top lash to open up eye) (black and brown common for everyday) (they then introduced mascara to match eyeshadow shade)

(Which included colors like blue)

Lipstick (red was a popular color at this time) (applied to lined lips with a touch of powder and set with gloss)

This is so interesting!

I personally love how makeup has evolved over time and the ways it has stayed the same, it’s so neat I bet there are a lot of different ways each decade of trends filters into todays!
