Check out her video on Hollywood Style (think 1940’s) Makeup.  Her tips on false eyelashes are definitely helpful and have me daydreaming about an event when I will be able to try them!

I admit that I am a late bloomer when it comes to makeup. Although I remember playing with different looks and styles when I was a teenager, somehow I stopped experimenting with makeup until the last few years.
