Looking Your Best - Makeup

Television (Full Length) – 1979

Shiny, "sexy" lips, big eyes and loads of blusher are the hot tips offered to Kiwi women in this short 1970s makeup tutorial. Leslie Field, the first female editor of British fashion magazine Tatler, reveals how makeup transforms her from "very ordinary" to someone who can turn heads on the street. Applying makeup during the interview, Field advises women to wear layers of mascara (she has around 16 layers) and use an eyelash curler to make their eyes look bigger. This video was part of a series of short programmes advising women on how to look good. 

You must have a shiny mouth. I think it’s sexy.
– Leslie Field, on the importance of wearing lip gloss
