30's hair and make up

Today we had an amazing opportunity to try on and to learn how to do 30's hairstyle and make up during our lesson in Art uni.

We actually did authentic finger waves exactly the way it was done in the third decade of 20 century. We used a special liquid gel, which was prepared by our teacher. It is made from linen seeds. Using this kind of fixation protects your fingers from sticking onto the hair, while you can easily form the right wave. 

Another typical thing is the right makeup. And it's all about color richness - thin eyebrows, smokey eyes and a bright, usually dark lipstick.

I had a nice little bundle
