Описание: Follow an easy 1920s flapper makeup look. How to apply cupids bow lips, shimmer eyeshadow, dramatic kohl eyeliner, and rosy blush makeup for that iconic Jazz Age look. ✨💄By Irina ‪@retrofrog‬

This vintage makeup look is perfect for that Great Gatsby dress you plan to wear to a roaring 20s party or wedding. Timeless and beautiful. The makeup look of the roaring 20s is still iconic a century later.

0:32 Foundation: A 1920s face is porcelain, smooth and very even-toned. Apply a dense layer of foundation and concealer in pale shades.

1:21 Brows: Women in the 1920s had arched eyebrows. Use a dark brown pencil to draw a thin arched line tending downward at the outer corner of the eye.

2:11 Eyeliner: Use the same dark brown pencil to draw a line on your top and bottom lash lines. Blend the eyeliner with a brush or finger for a soft smoky look.

2:53 Eyeshadow: Green shimmer eyeshadows all over the eyelid and gray-brown shadows in the crease of the eyelid blended almost to the eyebrows.

4:10 Mascara: Apply two layers of black mascara on top and bottom lashes.

4:35: Blush Makeup: 2 or 3 layers of creamy rose-red blush on the center of cheeks.

5:08: Lipstick. Finally to complete the roaring 20s flapper makeup look, Irina uses matte dark red lipstick and shows you how to paint the iconic 1920s cupid’s bow lips.

Evolution of 1920s Flapper Makeup
Theda Bara, known for her roles in films like "A Fool There Was" (1915), caused a stir with her heavily accentuated eyes and lips. Dark, smoky eye makeup and dark, dramatic lips.
Theda Bara was the original archetype for the Hollywood screen vamp.

Flapper Makeup Looks (Mid to Late 1920s)
The Jazz Age brought about a revolution in fashion and beauty. Flappers rebelled against traditional Victorian ideals, embracing shorter skirts, bobbed haircuts, and bold makeup.
Clara Bow and Louise Brooks epitomized the flapper aesthetic on screen, sporting dark, defined eyebrows, heavily kohled eyes, and cupid's bow lips painted in shades of red or plum. These makeup looks exuded confidence, independence, and sensuality, reflecting the liberated spirit of the era.

Hollywood Makeup Innovations

Makeup artists like Max Factor, who established his beauty empire in Hollywood during the 1920s, played a pivotal role in developing new cosmetic products and techniques tailored for film.

The makeup looks popularized by Hollywood vamps in the 1920s left a lasting legacy on beauty trends that transcended the decade. The bold, glamorous aesthetic of the Roaring Twenties continues to inspire modern makeup artists and enthusiasts.
