This week we honor classic beauty, Twiggy, as our Throwback Thursday.
Still in New York Fashion Week mode, we decided to honor one of the most iconic faces in the industry to ever grace a magazine. This cutely boyish, big eyed girl from London quickly became recognized as the symbol for the swinging sixties mod scene back in the day. Nicknamed "Sticks" as a kid, Twiggy would acquire her more popular name by the time she became a teenager, just in time for her launch as a full-fledged star.
Stealing Twiggy's majorly mod swag is easy. Swoop a dark smoky shadows into the crease of the lid, thickly line top and bottom lashes with black eyeliner, and pour on the mascara. Falsies will create head-turning flair, but if its a modern daytime look you're after, skip this step and instead of drawing on bottom lashes, use your mascara wand to add softer emphasis here.
If you're down to try this look, you're just as fearless a makeup maven as Twiggy. "For some women, the idea of wearing make-up fills them with fear, but it's a good way to draw attention to your best features," Twiggy explained. "At the very least, mascara can open up the eyes and add depth to your face." We couldn't agree more!
