Make up was very simple in the 50's. Not a lot of colored eye shadows were used, mostly browns and natural skin tone colors. Colored eye shadows were saved for parties and special occasions, so they'd wear shades of blue and purple. So most of the time women would wear red and pink lipsticks, with a bit of blush for a natural girly glow (a lot of girls would just pinch their cheeks to make them pink), and winged eye liner was very popular, because it gave the illusion of longer lashes.
