EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the 1950s, an era of glamour and elegance, as we take a closer look at these exquisite vintage make-up sets from Helena Rubinstein and Elizabeth Arden. In the top image, two women, one with fair skin, showcase the make-up recommended for their complexions. Above, Helena Rubinstein's collection is displayed, designed for those with fair skin tones. The make-up artist's innovative creations include a dark foundation and powder in shades of light peach and cream, a bold red velvet lipstick, and striking silver-green eye shadow. These dark colors were meant to create a dramatic and alluring look, perfect for both day and evening wear. Below, another woman with a pastel complexion is featured, wearing the make-up set by Elizabeth Arden. This collection was designed for those with lighter skin tones and included a rose-hued foundation and powder, a rosy lipstick in the shade "April-May," and a beautiful amethyst eye shadow. These soft and delicate shades were ideal for enhancing the natural beauty of the wearer and complementing the pastel colors that were popular during this era. These stunning make-up sets offer a glimpse into the rich history of beauty and fashion in the 1950s. With their bold and beautiful colors, they continue to inspire and captivate us today, reminding us of a time when make-up was not just a necessity but a form of art. These treasured relics from the past are a testament to the enduring allure of make-up and the timeless desire to look and feel our best.
