Make up of the 70′s

1960′s make trickled into Make up of the 70′s

Make up of the 70′s was all about glam

With tighter clothing, bigger hair and vibrant Make up of the 70′s roared with glamour,the 1970’s invoke images of John Travolta, hit dance moves and lots and lots of sparkle.  After the rebellious 60’s, people were ready for glittery fashion and glossy faces.
Women coordinated their daytime makeup with their outfit. for instance, they’d accessorize a brown granny dress with brown shadow and matching mascara and perhaps a light red lipstick.
But in contrast to some of the very boring daytime look, came the disco look! disco beauty trends stomped on simple and demure, and instead splashed on the shine, colour and maximum glamour. Disco divas piled on black mascara, shimmery eye shadow and white eyeliner, not unlike today.
Women with blond hair with blue eyes would often wear frosty white or blue eye shadow,  while women with olive skin tones and brown or green eyes, however, picked earth tones, instead.
blusher returned  to the beauty scene in the 70′s, but colours remained pastel and pale, women used baby pink to match frosty white or blue eye shadow, and  those  with olive skin tones applied shades of peach.The tan trend from the 60’s trickled down to the 70’s and like !8th century where pale skin was considered healthy by the  70′s tan skin was even though warning of skin cancer from too much sun most people still ignored it. many continued to apply baby oil.  The 1970′s saw the concept of the Sun Protection Factor (SPF) replaced the rudimentary sunscreens of the late 60′s, as well as Self-tanning  creams,  but their tendency to turn the skin a bright orange turned many people  off.
This concludes our look at  Make up of the 70′s and next time we will move to 1980′s
