Ad from 1963 promoting Max Factor’s line of compacts. This is an example of why it is so fun to collect mid-century women’s magazines. Her hair/makeup is so 60’s, yet her fresh, youthful look is timeless. Isn’t it interesting how they dramatized the advertised “sunlit look” by adding shadow to her face from the lines of the wicker basket? (September 1963 Good Housekeeping).
