These looks were created for the film documentary The Powder and the Glory – which is based on the book WAR PAINT by Lindy Woodhead, telling the story of two of the biggest names in cosmetics in the early 20th Century – Helena Rubinstein and Elizabeth Arden. Makeup artist David Nicholas created the looks to demonstrate the facial styles of each makeup era with the help of model Courtney Craft.
