So I've been feeling a bit like Eva Marcille in regards to my shopping habits lately. For the most part, I've been splurging as my spring/summer makeup collection was lacking and I'm still not done! However, for now, I'll share some of the products that I finally bought along with my thoughts.

Legendary Ladies: How to Get Dorothy Dandridge's and Marilyn Monroe's Makeup Look
Vintage Glamour Icons: Dorothy Dandridge and Marilyn Monroe
I received a pitch for vintage glamour icon, Marilyn Monroe. Six days ago, on August 4, marked the 47th anniversary of her death.
As you might have read, Marilyn Monroe and Dorothy Dandridge were good friends. Myra Panache, editor and founder of the Panache Report, wrote that "after Dandridge would finish performing with the Desi Arnez band in Hollywood, she would call Monroe. They would talk for hours about their careers, problems with men and racism in Hollywood. Dandridge, Monroe and Ava Gardner often went to parties together."
Panache added, "Monroe never tried to hide her friendship with Dandridge. Since it was so unpopular for white to have black friends during those segregated times, white media outlets refused to report on their friendship, even if they were peers in the same field.
Lena Horne dubbed Dorothy Dandridge "our Black Marilyn Monroe." This year, on September 8, will mark the 44th anniversary of Dorothy Dandridge's death. So in honor of the friendship that these two vintage glamour icons, let's talk about how to get their flawless skin, bedroom eyes, and perfect pout.
