Do you love the styles of other generations? Would you have loved to live in the 1920s just so you could wear flapper dresses and have slick waves in your hair? Or are pearls and flowery feminine dresses your favorite decades ensembles?

Personally, I love the vintage styles of the 1920s-1960s. They remind me of classy, elegant women, and chivalrous gentlemen. A time when there were less problems and more family time. For whatever reason, if you love vintage things or vintage looks, you must check out these books.

If you want to perfect your vintage look, youve gotta see these step-by-step guides to recreating classic vintage hair and makeup from the 1920s-1960s.

Book Details: Retro Makeup: Techniques for Applying the Vintage Look

Did you know that cosmetics during the years of the early and mid-twentieth century developed greatly and became what we are familiar with today?

Each decade of this time period had its own style of makeup; its own signature lips, eye makeup, rouge techniques, etc. This makeup book shows the changes in makeup styles over these decades and provides practical, easy-to-follow steps and guidance in recreating a lovely vintage face. By using the trends in shape and color of a specific decade, emulating a time period is even easier and better replicated.

This book came together with countless hours of research done by the author. Inside youll find a multitude of interesting facts about makeup style during the early and mid-20th century in a fun, colorful layout. The 104-page full-color book starts with a brief history of makeup during the Victorian and Edwardian Eras and then provides practical knowledge in applying makeup to help better use the information provided in each decade. It then jumps into full details about makeup styles during the 1920s, 1930s, 1940, 1950s and 1960s, with each decade having its own dedicated chapter. Each decade has information on historical events and innovations in products that were affecting makeup trends, popular shapes, and colors. Also in each decade are start-to-finish instructions on various makeup looks made popular by movie stars, models and beauty magazines of the time.1950s-makeup-how-to-book

No matter your skill level or makeup goal, Retro Makeup has it all. Whether you are researching for a theatrical production, hosting a time period party, or just love the look of beauty of a specific decade, this book will not disappoint. It is as much fun to read as it is to apply the knowledge it provides.

My Thoughts:Both books are eye-catching and easy-to-follow

HRST Books and the author Lauren Rennells have done an incredible job in producing these books. They have a range of educational and informative information about hair and makeup of the 1920s-1960s, and display the resources in a organized and colorful format. These book have remarkable photographs and illustrations I could browse the pictures forever! The full color pages of this book are very pleasing to the eye. I love the guides and find them incredible easy to understand and follow.

These books would be great for those in theatrical productions, for Halloween party costumes, cosmetologists, or if you are just interested in the beauty of the vintage times. For me, while I dont plan on dressing in vintage outfits anytime soon, I just simply enjoy this book for its lovely pictures and entertainment factor.

Vintage Hairstyling: Retro Styles with Step-by-Step Techniques and Retro Makeup: Techniques for Applying the Vintage Look compliment make a great gift set. The two books can be purchased separate or you can save money when you buy both of these popular titles at the same time! Together, the book set is $55.95. You can find the books at HRST Books, on Vintage Hairstyling Facebook page or on Amazon.com.
