- Travel back in time to the roaring 20s with an authentic 1920s flapper makeup look. Makeup tutorial for Cupids bow lips and downturned eyes. Perfect for your next Great Gatsby party. Makeup by Irina @retrofrog
Classic silent movie stars like Gloria Swanson and Clara Bow helped popularize the downturned eyes makeup look. The effect is to achieve a sad or melancholy look.
0:13 • Foundation: Apply a thick layer of matte foundation in a pale shade all over your face.
0:50 • Brows: Using a black pencil, draw a straight line creating the effect of a “sad eyebrow” tending downward at the outer corner of the eye. Blend the pencil using an angled brush.
1.44 • Eyes: Using a black pencil, draw a line along the upper lashes. Use your finger to blend the line for a soft, dramatic look. Add pencil along the upper contour of the eye for emphasis. Draw the outline of the lower eyelid with a black pencil and blend the line using an angled brush.
2:25 • Eyeshadow: Apply blue shimmer shadows to the entire eyelid using your finger and blend the edges with a brush. Apply taupe shadow into the crease of the eyelid, up to the brow bone and along the lower lash line.
3:26 • Powder: Apply white powder under your eyes and around your nose.
3:42 • Mascara. Apply two coats of black mascara to your upper and lower lashes.
4:16 • Blush. Apply two layers of berry cream blush to the center of your cheeks using your fingers and a sponge.
4:49 • Lips. Tint your lips with foundation, removing natural contours.
Using berry-coloured lipstick, draw a cupids bow lip
Apply a second layer of lipstick.
Done !

A brief history of the 1920s makeup look.
In the 1920s, the increasing use of makeup was a symbol of rebellion and liberation of women. The makeup style, characterized by its distinctive cupid's bow lips and down-turned eye makeup ( sad eyes) was influenced by the silent Hollywood film era.
Actresses like Clara Bow, Louise Brooks, and Joan Crawford embraced the flapper aesthetic. Featuring bold, dark eye makeup, emphasizing the eyes with kohl liner and mascara. The eyes were often accentuated with a downward slanting shape, which Irina shows you how to achieve in this tutorial. The flapper look was that of a demure but perpetually melancholic girl. Again the influence of the drama of the silent movies.
Red lips were another focal point of the flapper look, with a distinct Cupid's bow shape achieved through the use of lip liners and lipsticks. In deep, rich shades like plum, burgundy, or red. This exaggerated lip shape was often emphasized with the application of dark lipstick to create a bow-like appearance.
Makeup artists of the time, such as Max Factor and Helena Rubinstein, played a crucial role in popularizing these trends. Their new cosmetics products and techniques specifically tailored to the demands of the burgeoning film industry.
Through their work with Hollywood stars and the widespread dissemination of their techniques through magazines and beauty guides, these makeup artists helped to cement the flapper makeup look as a symbol of modernity and glamour during the 1920s.
Hollywood's influence on fashion and beauty during this period was profound, and the flapper makeup style became an enduring icon of the Roaring Twenties.

Im a guy, but can't seem to stop watching your videos lol. You've got a very beautiful face structure, and gorgeous eyes. But with the makeup on, you are quite possibly the most beautiful women I've ever seen. I love the look.
The amount of times my jaw dropped and my eyeballs rolled out of jealousy! 😂😂 Everything was so beautiful 😭
Looks great,I was so surprised to see you use the small huda beauty palette,I have the same one and use often the orange, brown colours but tomorrow I am going to try the bleu shimmer that you used. Thanks for the inspiration!
✨ Brilliant ✨
The only part of the makeup I’d change is the lips/mouth . They need to look thinner/smaller.
Great!!! Congratulations!
She's giving some serious Clara Bow vibes here.
Stunning🤩🤩🤩
That's almost right, only the brows are still too thick. Back then, they were very, very narrow.
Beautiful❤

Who else dresses up vintage style?
Sometimes. Only in parts and pieces.
I dress vintage for church and certain events but not everyday
I wear my Edwardian garments out shopping often! Also working on adding 1940s/50s to my wardrobe as well! I love history-bounding!!
🙋♀i'm trying time to time
I used to wear 1950s and 1960s style!
It helps if you have lips shaped like yours😉
💋..💄.....👍🏽💥🤘🏾
I wished an eyebrow pencil closer to the hair color was used
She's a goddess ngl
Makeup is necessary for beauty ❤️❤️❤️

Is that really old video???
No, the makeup artist is tagged in the description

Good work on the eyebrows, i like the shape 🦇 ❤

The Flappers makeup? Really? The hairstyle was a very short bob in those years with a sort of very cute bell hat.
I admire your narcissism as you're attractive without the make-up...
This vídeo isn' t from the 20's
