How would i apply make up for the 1970s?

Eye colour, shape, eyeliner and shape lip colour


Day and eveningHow would i apply make up for the 1970s?
The styles the teens wear today is similar to what was worn in the 70's. A lot of white or blue eyeshadow, white or blue eyeliner, lots of lipgloss (with sparkles at night). Blush was a little heavier in the 70's though. I think lipstick colors were brighter too, lots of corals and pinks. Eye liner was thicker and extended out past the edge of the eye a little. Mascara was also heavier. I don't think women tried to make their lips look bigger in the 70's, they usually aimed for more bow shaped lips. This is how I remember it anyway. Remember, hippies wore little makeup, but many loved the disco scene which was in full swing at that time. Disco was all about the flashy stuff.





Hope I helped.How would i apply make up for the 1970s?
take a look at 70's icon agnetha faltskog from the band abba:

1. the skin looks very nude, hardly any foundation perhaps none at all. you could use this


http://www.boots.com/shop/product_detail鈥?/a> because i have used it before it is in fact a 'bare skin sensation' it looks like you have no foundation on and feels like you have no foundation on.





2. as you can see the skin in that photo is very matte and in fact has a bit of a tan because start of 1970's people from northern europe were begginning to jet off to southern europe for foreign holidays and thus tanned skin began to be popularized in northern europe

use this powder in either silky beige or champagne to blot out any shine on your face and give you tanned looking skin





3. leave your eyebrows nude or if you want to go to extremes buy an eyebrow pencil a few shades lighter than your normal brows and sketch in over the top of your eyebrows.





4. the eyes are the main feature of the typical 1970's make up as you can see in the picture everything else is kept natural . firstly start by outlining your eyes with black black eyeliner no matter how fair you naturally are because eyeliner is a big feature of 1970's make up. use an eyeliner like this line right round your lower lid but dont outline the corners near the tearducts of your eye because agnetha does not have hers done like this

5. use a deep royal purple eyeshadow all over your eyelid to look just like agnetha

6. overload on the black mascara with one like this

7. as you can see in the photo the lips are completely nude except for a little bit of gloss but firstly to give your gloss staying power outline your lips such as this constance carroll liner in nude

8. then add a touch of clear or peachy gloss to your lips such as buff441 shown here

9. as a finishing touch agnetha sports a bronzey-terracotta blusher such as Beauty Without Cruelty Powder Blush, 02 Tawny Whisper

with a trowel!
From what I remember they just slapped it on, on a friday and if you didn!t scrub up over the weekend it lasted quite well till monday or tuesday. Wasn!t cheep at that era.
Green mascara with matching nails and eyeshadow was popular, a la Mary Quant.


Have a look at 70's magazines, She, Vogue, Woman. The Victoria %26amp; Albert Museum have some in their National Art Library. Or go to Portbello Road Sunday market, London W11, a guy there sells old magazines. Try watching The Avengers, James Bond 007 give you a fair idea, in fact most 70's films will give you the general idea.
look up abba or kates bush.
Actually the 70's was all things disco so think over the top and glitter just search on google for disco divas and you should find what you need.
If really want to dress up and do your makeup like in the seventies, you should watch That 70's Show . It is on Paramount 1 ever-day at 20:00. The is no different but the close and the hair style is really unique
Strangely enough the make up of the seventies was dumbed down in comparison to the fifties and sixties with a resurgence of all things obscene in the eighties.
SIMPLY JUST WATCH OLD 70 S MOVIES AND COPY THEIR IDEAS AND THERE YOU GO BABES
With a trowel Lol
Yes, just paint your face like KISS. they had the best make up in the 70's.
Ich weiss nicht
I would say just apply the make-up abit more and without foundation but if you do then apply it really thick and no lip liner.





So i've been told.
why would you want to.. if your doing a 70's theme just go with the clothes..oh and we did not shape our mouth back then with the pencil..did not have them. did have fake eye lashes thougth..but only the low class wore them
IF YOU GO INTO YOUR LOCAL BOOTS OR DEPARTMENT STORE THEY WILL BE ABLE TO SHOW YOU, ALSO BOOTS HAVE CARDS SHOWING YOU HOW WITH STEP BY STEP CARDS FROM SOME OF THEIR RANGES, I LOOKED AT THEM YESTERDAY.
ask your Grannie, or aunt
you could go onto ebay and type in what you want to apply or purchese
Lots of funky bright colours and thick black eyeliner. Make the eye liner stick out at the sides it will look fantastic!
Depends which part of the seventies.


Early seventies (I was 13 in 1970) Quite 'generous' on the make up with either frosty pink lipsticks or for a brief period the vampish look was in, darker plummy eyeshadows and plum lipsticks. Popular makes at that time until the mid seventies were Miners, Outdoor Girl and Mary Quant (if you could afford it)


I remember at about 15 or 16 there was a craze for crayons (made by Mary Quant) and we would crayon our faces to look like David Bowie off the cover of Aladdin Sane.


Then came punk and you probably know what punks looked like-loads of black lipstick with some bright pink or green hair thrown in for good measure.


From 1978 onwards black lining under the eyes was popular with heavy black mascara and lipsticks or lip glosses. If you can try and get hold of some 1970's girls magazines from that time I'm sure you will get the idea.Popular magazines of that time were Jackie but more usefull would be Honey and 19.


I would say makeup is more toned down and natural these days although I watched 'Loose Women' on ITV this lunchtime and they were plastered in eyeshadow!
use deep blues all over the eye lids, heavy with eye liner top and bottom eyes, don't pluck eye brows, or use lip liners, mascara heavy with false eyelashes. Use a trowel to put foundation on, blusher and powder, then a full packet of face wipes to remove, visit to the doctors to clear up the spots that using this much make up caused, stay in for 3 weeks till spots go and then start all over again. WHY BOTHER.
It would help if you got the afro, the Farrah Fawcett hair, or the long straight Cher hair parted in the middle. It adds to the effects.





Makeup in the 1970s used a lot of purple, slashes of burgundy blush, strong eyeshadow, red, purple, hot pink (fuschia), and brown lipsticks.





They used a lot of glitter too, because it was the disco era.


Especially with the Studio 54 days.





Or, you could apply it with a lot of browns. Brown lipstick, brown eyeshadow.





Don't forget high waisted bellbottom or flared pants, along with the platform boots.





Or not.
