5 January 2011 16:16

The pin-up girl look, with the help of a compact mirror, has made a huge comeback as more celebrities go for the seductive look, according to a new report.

In the piece for becomegorgeous.com, it was claimed that smoky eyes and blood-red lipstick have long been out of fashion, but have made a huge comeback through the likes of Christina Aguilera and Katy Perry.

"Learning how to create a pin-up girl make-up is a must if you wish to adopt such an attention-grabbing look," it continued. "The pin-up girl make-up look will give you the visual transformation you'll need to obtain that sultry, feminine appearance."

Women should apply foundation and set it with powder to give the skin a matte effect as that way, they will have porcelain-looking skin which is a staple of the look.

Eyeliner and mascara can really make the eyes pop, especially if used with a vanilla eyeshadow, the source added.

This week, the Philippine Star emphasised the importance of good skin, highlighting the need to moisturise on a daily basis.
