Make Up Trends Over The Years


Today, it seems that with your eye make-up, almost anything goes.

You can go for the natural look like Jennifer Anniston,  enhance your eyes and lashes with just a flick of mascara – the whole effect being that you are just working on your natural beauty rather than creating a whole new look for yourself.

At the other end of the scale we have the Goth make-up look. Think heavy black eyeliner, pale white skin, dramatic lashes and dark, dark lips.

How Flappers Changed Make-Up In The Roaring 1920s

In the 19th Century, make-up was frowned upon and women strived for a natural look. Then in the roaring 1920s the flapper girl ,with her new sense of emancipation and fashionably short shingled hair, started to wear heavy eyeliner to enhance the eyes.

In the 1930s the film star Marlene Dietrich made heavily plucked eyebrows fashionable and the whole aim was to have eyebrows that were just a thin line – overplucked eyebrows sometimes never recover however as some women found to their costs.

Black Eye Liner Was A Must In The 1950s

Bold eyemake up became less popular in the 1940s, with lipstick becoming a favourite cosmetic but with the rise of rock and roll in the 1950’s and the beehive hairdo, black eyeliner again became right on trend, flicked up along the outer corners of the eye to achieve a cat’s eye effect, along with heavy black eyelashes.
In the 1960’s false eyelashes and big, big eyes were the look to have, populised by famous models such as Twiggy. A long heavy fringe accentuated the eyes too, as did shimmery eye shadows.

The 1970s lessened the look of eyeliner and eyelashes but instead coloured eyeshadows, particularly in shades of blue, was a key look. Watch the original episodes of the TV series Charlie’s Angels and you’ll see what was right on trend.

Men In Eye Make Up

The 1980s saw New Romantic music take centre stage and along with this came the popularity of eye make up for men, who started to sport kohl –rimmed eyes – think Duran Duran, Adam and The Ants. Women also weren’t considered properly made up without thick kohl eyeliner and despite the best attempts of beauty editors, many women would rather not go out than be seen without eyeliner and mascara, as it enhances features and gives confidence to many.   Coloured mascaras in blues and purples was also popular – the Princess of Wales was a keen user of blue mascara who used it to enhance her bright blue eyes and give them extra depth.

Come the 1990s and the Millenia, the focus on the eyes seems to settle a bit. However cosmetic procedures on the eyes, for example removing under eye bags and tightening lines, also using Botox to tighten up the facial skin became increasingly popular and more affordable.

5 Top Beauty Secrets for Women

There are a lot of different beauty secrets out there for women to use. Some of these work while others aren't as effective. The needs of all women are different, but there are 5 top beauty secrets that anyone can use. These beauty secrets can make life easier and can help any woman look her best as well.

1. Use Natural Skincare Products

There are loads of skincare products on the market today. Unfortunately, most of these are made with a variety of different chemicals. These can end up causing adverse reactions on the surface of the skin. Instead of risking your skin, use all natural products. These might be a bit more expensive, but that cost is worth it.

With natural products you won't be getting the harmful chemicals and toxins. Instead, you will be using ingredients that are derived from plants and that are found naturally. These are much better for the skin and will care for it a lot better. By using all-natural products you won't have to waste money going through other options that just don't work.

2. Eat Healthier

Eating healthier contributes to skin that looks great and a body that feels even better. This is due to antioxidants getting rid of toxins in the body and nutrients supporting great health. Getting the right vitamins and nutrients will also reduce wrinkles and help prevent them in the future. By just adding in more fruits and vegetables it's likely you will feel and look better.

3. Wear Sunscreen

Sunscreen is something that should be worn whenever you are out in the sun. Even if you're just going out for some light errands, sunscreen is important. If you don't wear it your skin is at risk for damage that will make you look a lot older in the future. In addition to this, you will also be putting yourself at risk for skin cancer. There are a lot of sunscreens available, including makeup that has SPF inside of it.

4. Wear Lotion

Moisturizing the skin will make a huge difference with how it looks. Not only will it have a healthier glow, it will feel nice to touch. There are tons of lotions out there, so experiment to find which one works best for you. Apply it daily on your entire body, not just on your face. Your legs need the lotion just as much as your hands and face do.

5. Wash Your Face

Washing the makeup off of your face at night before bed is extremely important. If you don't do this, the chemicals from the makeup are going to seep deep into the skin through the night. This will prevent it from doing nightly repairs that get rid of dead skin and brighten your appearance. The makeup will also clog up your pores, which will cause acne. You can choose the best facial cleanser based on your specific skin type.

 Skin lighteners.
Is it good for a naturally dark skinned person to choose to use skin lighteners and how does this affect a person in the long run? Is it dangerous for one’s health or is it  just the same as using make up, wearing a wig ,fake nails, face powders, earrings  and all that? We do all these things in search of beauty. But who defines beauty. Does it mean if you are dark skinned you are ugly and one would argue that okay if you saying skin lighteners are not fine then is it okay for a person with their black coarse hair to put wigs ,weaves on their natural ,why can’t they just leave it like that? Is changing your complexion a whole lot dangerous than all other kinds of make up?

For me putting make up is just to enhance your own beautiful features that God gave you. I believe you are beautiful no matter what the colour of your skin is. The thing is most skin lightning creams have dangerous side effects which can harm the melanin. Another ugly side when you change your skin colour drastically it ends up looking bad because you end up not doing it properly and you end up scared to touch your face with your hand as the hand will be too dark and looking like it’s not your hand. Well for me the weaves and wigs you can remove but the change of the skin colour you can’t reverse it and it’s more harmful especially when not done in a proper manner.seek professional help when you have got a skin problem rather  than prescribing creams yourselfs.
Pigmentation
Mainly in summertime freckles tend to be deeper. It tends to look like dark spots on your forehead and cheeks which is called hyper pigmentation. When skin cells become unhealthy and damaged it affects the melanin production which in turns causes pigmentation. Usually women with a darker skin are more prone to pigmentation which I n turn causes some women to resort incorrect use of skin lightning methods. Causes of pigmentation can be hormonal ,pregnancy or menopause you want to treat your pigmentation go to a trained doctor so that you can be given proper topical skin lightening which usually contain hydroquinone which is dangerous if its abused or incorrectly used.

How to stop pigmentation
-Avoid too much sun exposure and wear sun hats

-Use sun screens and blocks

Hope this helps you to a much clearer and smooth skin.
