Do you love to watch old vintage Hollywood movie with the glamour of pinup style? The Hollywood studio movies where the stars were stars such as Olivia de Haviland, Bette Davis, Betty Page, Lauren Bacall, Katherine Hepburn, Claudette Colbert and yes even Mommy Dearest herself Joan Crawford. These ladies of the silver screen epitomized style and Hollywood glamour.

In three easy steps you can achieve a glamourous pinup style. The You Tube channel has many how to makeup videos you can watch and learn from or try printing this article and go to your makeup with a mirror then start to play.

Here are three simple steps to get your "pinup" pretty on:

Step one: Liquid eyeliner from any brand you choose like Wet n Wild or LashFood is to be applied along the lash line as close to the lashes as possible with a small amount of winging out just past the end of your eyelashes. Liquid liner is the most authentic eyeliner look for the old Hollywood glamour though you can mix it up with your makeup and try a pencil or a slant tip brush, moistened and dipped into an eyeshadow in the color of liner you want to create.

Step two: To truly be "pinup" you are going to need a really great matte red lipstick! One of my favorites is Explore by Lorac or for the budget savvy in creating a new style, try Wet n Wild MegaLast Matte. This lipstick is new on the market and retails for $2.99 at Walmarts and Targets. To apply, start by lining your lips with a nude lip liner or a matching toned lip liner to your lipstick shade and then fill in the the entire mouth.

Step three: One hair flower to style and accentuate your hair with by adding to the side of your head just above the ear. I like Dollface Bettys, Lila JO and Exposure Swimwear hair flowers. Though the one I'm wearing in the Youtube how to video is from the Tinkerbell store in the local mall here in Arizona. I bought it for two dollars which is a fair price since they can average anywhere from five dollars to twenty dollars. You can even make your own hair flowers with clips and silk flowers or use a fresh flower and a bobby pin to secure it in your hair.

To achieve a truly "pinup" hairstyle, I suggest a set of rolled curls that are tucked under towards the neck or roll the hair back away from the face. One of the best and classic setting lotions for thse type of hairstyles is called Lotta Body setting lotion. You can purchase this for about ten dollars for a large bottle that can be diluted in strength to make it go further and do more hairstyles. Hair styles that had a smooth crown with tightly curled ends with a side pinned up in a flower is very old Hollywood glamour vintage "pinup" style!

If you have been following along with this short "how to makeup lesson" then I know you look gorgeous.

It's easy as 1,2,3, to achieve this vintage Hollywood glamour look to help you get over the funk of a beauty slump and try out a new style.
