A Makeup Encyclopedia

While working on her book, “Classic Beauty: The History of Makeup,” Bésame Cosmetics founder Gabriela Hernandez stumbled upon some intriguing facts. Among them were that women in 1643 wore partial leather masks to protect themselves from the sun; that mascara in the Twenties resembled a lifesaver-sized roll of wax, which users sliced, melted and then applied with a stick, and that the 1938 introduction of open-toed shoes sparked the advent of toenail painting.

The Creator of Lip Gloss

Very few people know that it was MARILYN MONROE who first invented LIP GLOSS. She was the first ever woman to achieve those “wet lips” by combining lipstick, beeswax, and Vaseline! Her invention was passed on from her makeup assistants to cosmetic companies, with the ultimate bombshell receiving no credit or royalties at all!

So girls, every time you slide some gloss over those lips, thank Marilyn for coming up with the most used beauty product of all time!

The colors… I like. :)

“Beauty is about perception, not about make-up. I think the beginning of all beauty is knowing and liking oneself. You can’t put on make-up, or dress yourself, or do you hair with any sort of fun or joy if you’re doing it from a position of correction.”

I learned or heard something new today. :)

The cost of the contents of a 2 oz. Crème de la Mer is only 4USD (approximately Php185.50)

Yet with great packaging and marketing, a 2 oz. Crème de la Mer usually sells for 230USD (approximately Php10,666.25)

Simon Legno once again uses his tokidoki designs for Sephora’s colour cosmetics. Awesome. :)

Love that each of the products can be used in various ways. :)

“Perfetto Eyeliner - a felt-tip liquid eyeliner that comes in a glorious array of colors”
“Fantastico Lip Stain - a chunky marker that can double as a cheek stain or eye wash”
“Prisma Lip Gloss - has a separate compartment of sequins in shapes like skulls, stars, and diamonds”
