Get the 1940s pin-up natural makeup look
Retro fashion and vintage styling continues to be a big hit in the most elite circles, with the 'Mad Men effect' gripping the catwalk.
Perfecting the 1940s pin-up girl natural makeup technique is a wise choice for anyone seeking a striking and elegant look.
Becomegorgeous.com reported that A-list glamourpusses Katy Perry and Christina Aguilera are two examples of working the sultry, vixen style.
The writer said: "The '30s and '40s pin-up woman is sexy, seductive, confident, she's not afraid to shine and enjoys all the attention - traits that are mirrored in the sultry winged eyes and luscious red lips."
To achieve the retro bombshell look, first pay attention to your complexion by using natural face exfoliator and natural moisturiser, to keep your skin clear and glowing. When applying natural foundation, use powder to set it and achieve a matte finish.
For natural eye shadow, use a vanilla hue over the whole lid, before accentuating with a taupe shade in the crease. Then, using liquid liner, create a 'winged' line at the outer corner of the eyes.
Finally, a slick of red natural lipstick and you're good to go!
