1960’s Fashion- Get the Makeup Look of Leslie Caron

May 24, 2013

Leslie Caron

Leslie Caron is a talented woman that is still acting today. If you aren’t doing anything this weekend, watch Lili but only if you aren’t scared of puppets. If you hate someone that is scared of puppets, tell them to watch Lili. I’ve always wondered if Leslie Caron had any relation to the House of Caron (her dad was a chemist…) Anyway, Leslie is a gorgeous woman and still to this day we envy her lips. I’m guessing that this photo was taken in the mid-to-late… Continue reading | 4 Comments

She has influenced so many creative types throughout the years. I am happy that she finally got the recognition that she deserves (she was FINALLY inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2009). Wanda is still a glamorous stone-cold fox that still wears rhinestones and sports big hair. To me she was always… Continue reading | 4 Comments

Britt Ekland

Oh, Britt Ekland, actress, Bond Girl, singer, and ex-wife of a Stray Cat. I like a women that can tell a story and you know that Britt has stories. I’m not sure about the exact date of this photograph of Britt. I’m going to guess late 60’s, early 70’s. I love this look for summer.

1970’s Fashion – Get the Makeup Look of Rita Lee

May 25, 2012

Rita Lee

I love Rita Lee. I love any woman that plays a theremin. Here’s my non-fussy simple early 1970’s makeup look inspired by Rita Lee here:

I applied Lancôme Beinfait Multi-Vital Tinted Moisturizer in Sand for sheer coverage. I need more coverage under the eyes, so I applied Covergirl Simply Ageless Concealer in Corrector with my fingers. I took a fluffy brush and applied Clarins Loose Powder in Beige to the t-zone. On the cheeks… Continue reading | 2 Comments
