Mascara 1950s Style



Nowadays you can buy all types of mascara – waterproof, different colours – mascara to give the impression you have thicker eyelashes.

 All types come in a liquid form in a long container so the application wand can put in on – with your help.

I remember back in the 50s my Mum putting on mascara – but in not such a nice way!

In those days there was no liquid form – you bought it an oblong box with a lid. The mascara was hard and had an application brush a bit like a mini toothbrush.

How you applied it was to – wait for it ------ spit into the black block, mix the spittle with the brush and then apply it to your eyelashes.
Job done!
