A brand new technology, the latest, in eye makeup - introducing the Max Factor Eye Brightening Tonal Black Volumising Mascara. Described as tonal, this black mascara contains light reflecting particles that are invisible and brighten and enrich the colour of either blue or green or brown eyes. There are three separate products - Black Pearl for brown eyes, Black Sapphire for blue eyes and Black Ruby for green eyes. The enhancing effects of this brilliant new mascara are made possible by the formula of invisible light reflecting particles and added gem-toned colour beads which customise the reflected light to enrich each eye colour, blue, brown or green. On application, I found it is featherlight. Gliding on smoothly, it really lights up your eyes and eye colour in the most natural way, an amazing effect of this hi-tech product! Product user reviews I read found this mascara lengthened also. Promising to volumise your eye lashes, and it does, by up to 300%, this product is a wonder product - it's highly advanced. Available for Brown eyes (the one I tested - pictured), Blue eyes or Green eyes, the Max Factor Eye Brightening Tonal Black Volumising Mascara. £7.99. Find at Superdrug and Boots stores nationwide or online.

David Bowie 'Young Americans' Album (March 1975)
David Bowie 'Young Americans' Album March 7 1975 Photography: Eric Stephen Jacobs |
The album cover photograph to 'Young Americans', released in March 1975,
is David Bowie post-Ziggy Stardust (1972), when he played the alien rock superstar visiting from outer space. Against the grey of
Bowie's clothing, his colouring is the same orange red. The
backlighting in the photograph frames his face, suggesting something
romantic, mysterious and glamorous. The smoke from Bowie's cigarette
rises slowly. His bangles are glinting, Seventies and cosmic. The entire effect
is painterly and beautiful. The makeup he wears is perfect.

Evolutionary Cosmetics - A Useful Dimension of Glamour
American Vogue August 2013 Editorial feat. Karli Kloss and Daft Punk |
As we advance, technology is at our fingertips in the consistency of our face creams and cosmetics - the microscopy of the skin cell, computers and technology in the content of the products we apply. Prescriptives - Monocream. Helena Rubenstein - Power A. Shu Uemura - Cell Fusion Al. Chanel - Cyber Lumiere. Makeup and skincare is advanced like the photographic techniques used to capture its effects in beauty shoots in magazines and adverts where the newest and most technological products are showcased first. The designer Hussein Chalayan presented his Remote Control Aeroplane Dress during his Spring/Summer 2000 show which I attended in September 1999, advancing ideas about technology and clothing in the process. The effects on your skin of your foundation or eye shadow now look even more like a photograph in a magazine, completed by digital airbrushing, the perfecting effect of the 21st century. Products like Revlon's Photoready Compact Makeup with Liquefying Screen demonstrate this, as do face and body creams, which are an intimate biological technology worn close to the skin. Evolutionary cosmetics, including skincare - a useful dimension of glamour.
