It’s ‘Vintage Make-Up Week’ here on LisaEldridge.com – well it’s going to be more like 12 days but that doesn’t sound as good! As I say in this video I didn’t want to make it a formulaic “this is how to do a Marilyn look… this is how to do a 40’s lip” (I’ll do that kind of thing at a later date) but more of a fun look at vintage products, make-up history and some of my personal collection favourites. There’s going to be a mixture of films and blog posts including a couple of really facinating documentaries and two make-overs the likes of which I havent seen attempted before ; )
If you truly love make-up I think you are going to love what I’ve got coming up so stay tuned!

I only feature products I like, or want to try.

Looks like Natalie Portman went undercover on her youtube channel
Hello Lisa! I've recently began collecting vintage compacts. My favorite ones so far are the 1950s Stratton ones with the lipstick tube that pops up, similar to the Mother of Pearl one you showed. I have two gold-tone ones and one in a striking enamel "print" called Indian Empress. I've kept the ones in pristine condition (with the original stickers, puffs, pouches, and boxes) as decorative-collectible pieces, but there's one that has obvious signs of wear, including some minor scratches, that I decided to put to use. I inserted a Besame Cosmetics lipstick called "Red Velvet 1946" in the holder and filled the other section with one of their brightening powders (it seemed appropriate to use vintage-inspired cosmetics) and every single time I take out my compact to touch up, people's faces light up. And it's not only women, one time a gentleman walked across a restaurant to tell me I had brought him memories of his grandmother, who had a "powder box" like mine. It's such a conversation piece, and it gives me such pleasure every time I use it…I have to confess that I sometimes plan my makeup around that particular red lipstick so I have an excuse to carry my vintage case with me! I know this video is old, but I love revisiting it!
Isn't dangerous to put on your face such old old makeup?
I like ur products and ur style in makeup
