Product Information

Instead we see a charming discussion of colour utilisation through the ages, the trends, the socio-political ramifications, the anecdotes. Who would have thought that the use of makeup through ages seemed to coincide with women's rights, and freedom, even if only certain tiers in certain ages? Apparently courtesans and prostitutes not only wore obvious makeup through the ages, but also got accorded more rights than the genteel women. Mo' makeup, did equate to mo' fun!

Top 5 Face Paints

If it’s a big event it might be wise to have a couple of people painting faces, managing the queue and helping out. Think about signage – if there’s lots of activities, you may want a sign or banner to show what you’re offering. But, still, a gorgeous book and I learned a lot about recent makeup history. I love makeup and I felt good about wearing it after reading this.

Women featuring in ads started as a revolutionary act; of liberating them and their right to wear makeup. However, much as it happens in patriarchal societies, the act soon became a business to objectify women so much so that now it is downright misogynistic. Remember you don’t have to be an artist - it’s about having fun and being creative. It can all be wiped off and done again if you make a mistake (nothing is permanent!) and if you’re creating a look on a child, you don’t have to worry about being too perfect or true to life. Interestingly, courtesans, professional mistresses and prostitutes being afforded more freedom and power than other women (in addition to wearing more makeup) is a pattern that has repeated throughout history,” writes Lisa. Try something unique this Halloween and replicate this angry pineapple face paint design! See the full tutorial here! #26. Rainbow Flowers Arm DesignMany believe that makeup is frivolous or a means to make our appearances look better, or to attract men, etc. We may use makeup for those very reasons, but for many of us it's because we like putting it on for ourselves. This book emphasizes and encourages that. Lisa reveals, “If you explore the use of makeup through ancient times, it soon becomes clear that the freedom and rights accorded to women during a given period are very closely linked to the freedom with which they painted their faces” From the invention of the world’s first mascara to the story behind the Helena Rubenstein genius, to the rivalry of “Revlon-man” and Elizabeth Arden, here is what makes the Lisa book an absolute must-have. This arm mandala face paint design is great for both boys and girls, as well as adults! See the full tutorial here! #22. Full Face Mermaid Face Paint Design Makeup, as we know it, has only been commercially available in the last 100 years, but applying decoration to the face and body may be one of the oldest global social practices.”
