Vintage Cosmetics Advertisements

The first commercially sold lip gloss was Max Factor's "X-Rated." It came out in stores in 1932, but Max Factor's invention of glosses for use in films allegedly dates back to 1930. I have been searching online for a view of this beloved Lip Creation, telling it “just a gloss” is disrespectful. Sorry to tell you but, I could not find a photograph of it...not yet anyhow. However, I found so many vintage Beauty and Cosmetics ads along the way, that my new quest was to find more. Enjoy this blast from the past makeup lovers….

Sally Hansen Salon Effect Nail Polish Strips

I was excited to try the Sally Hansen Salon Effect Polish Strips in Houndstooth, because I always do my own nails. When I purchased the box set I thought it was a little expensive at $9.95 for one set of 16 nail straps. To me that meant, one full set of nail designs that would maybe, last for up to 10 days. However, you cannot judge, what you have not tried, so I gave it a go!













I really like this product, you DO get a salon effect…. Luckily, I applied them while I had a steady hand, and a steady hand is the key, but it worked out great! I was able to cut the large thumbs of nail polish strips into 5 pieces, to use them individually for nail tips. I got more out of the product than what was excepted. I would high recommend Sally Hansen Salon Effect Polish Strips for when you want a salon look for a fraction of the salon price.
