 In an effort to obtain beauty, many women indulged in using a variety of dangerous beauty aids. These compounds eventually ruined the skin and in some cases caused death. Despite knowing that the grim side effects, women would endure the shakes, hair loss, and stomach problems in their never-ending quest for beauty via make-up usage.
The 1910’s brought about a serious turnaround for the creation and usage of make-up. The first pressed powders in compacts, mascara, lipstick in a metal case, and pancake make-up were all created and welcomed by women everywhere. By the 1920’s mass marketing of make-up began which opened the door for rural women to show her independence by wearing lipstick, lipgloss, and mascara. Make-up styles from the 1930’s to the 1950’s where modeled after current movie stars. Reflecting the era, the 1960’s gave way to a more free and liberated make-up look…i.e…anything goes! In the 1970’s and 1980’s women enjoyed colorful eye shadows and dark and heavy eyeliners. Fast forward to today’s make-up application trends and you will find a delightful blend from the past with many women choosing a more natural look.

 Some ladies might not realize that applying make-up without foundation will actually accentuate problem areas on their face instead of concealing them. Wearing foundation on your face is the key to making your skin look smooth and fresh before you apply your make-up. Foundation helps to conceal blemishes, redness, and discoloration. Using foundation will smooth out your skin tone and highlight your natural attributes. When applied correctly, it will give your skin a healthy glow.
Choosing the right color foundation to match your skin tone can be a tricky decision. Skin care experts say that choosing a foundation color that is too light will make you look pale and washed out. When you choose a foundation color that is too dark, you will have a line of make-up at your jawbone that makes you look like you are wearing a mask. Foundation color must always blend in with your natural skin tone. Just as the seasons change, so does the color of your skin. During the summer you might need a darker toned foundation color and during the winter you might need a lighter toned foundation color.
There are different types of foundations available, so you must decide which type is best for your particular skin care needs.
Please check back on Thursday for Part 2.
