Summary

COI synopsis: The twenties, the thirties, the forties...we look at the changing fashions in make-up popularised by Hollywood screen idols. And what about the face of the future? We forecast a space age look shimmering with metallic based cosmetics and glowing with under the skin make-up that is a first cousin to plastics.
