Aye. You can't lie if you pass out and they have to "save" you.....if that's the story you are going with.

Back in 1938, they invented waterproof mascara. The catch? It was made with turpentine. Your lashes might have looked great, but your tear ducts were probably in protest #makeupfacts #iamriccimonique #mascara #turpentine

Did you know?
Brides who do a makeup trial are 90% less stressed on the big day!

Lipsticks with blue undertones make your teeth look whiter.
✨ Highlighter on your collarbone = instant glam.
💡 Pro Tip: Always carry a touch-up kit—powder, lipstick, and blotting papers.

Makeup early on was trying to "unalive" you, literally.

So either you are a regular sinner, or a sinful sinner?
The middle ages was bonkers.

Don't just be fun, be bold. Because nothing says "I'm the main character" quite like a pop of blue on your lashes. 💙

Why does your mascara work? Because back in 1917, a woman named Mabel needed a glow-up so badly she mixed Vaseline with coal dust, and a company called Maybelline was born. What's your excuse?

Step aside, snake oil salesmen. In 1915, there was a mascara called "Lash-Brow-Ine" that promised to grow your lashes... but sometimes it also made them fall out. Talk about a glow-up with a plot twist!

The next time you swipe on some mascara, thank Eugene Rimmel. Yeah, that Rimmel. The one who basically invented the game in the 1800s so you could have those perfect lashes. He's the OG lash king.

Want to know how silent film stars got that wide-eyed, "I just saw my ex with a new girl" look? They literally painted their eyebrows high above their real ones. It wasn't about subtle shaping; it was about full-on, high-drama shock.

When I was researching this, this was one of the few facts I said 'really though'?
Just wasn't expecting that. 🤷‍♀️

When I was taking my Stage MUA class, we had so much fun trying out these looks! 
Here's a picture of me doing a photo shoot for our midterm (historical makeup)!
I always have fun in that space!
