Within the realm of vintage cosmetics, the lipstick case is a shining example of sophistication, glitz, and individual flair. Vintage lipstick cases, as works of art in a woman’s handbag, were made to make a statement, in contrast to the disposable packaging of today. These cases were created between the early and middle of the 20th century, and because they captured the style, materials, and workmanship of the era, collectors today prize them highly.
Antique lipstick cases, crafted from a variety of materials such as brass, enamel, semi-precious stones, sterling silver, gold plating, and elaborate etchings, served as a tribute to the artistic sensibilities of their time. They reflected the Art Deco movement of the 1920s and 1930s with geometric shapes, simple lines, and opulent metallic decorations. Following World War II, cases were increasingly elaborate, including romantic themes such as flowers and birds, frequently embellished with pearls or colored stones.
These enclosures were technical and functional miracles in addition to being stunning. Many had built-in mirrors for applying lipstick on-the-go, and some even had pockets for powder or little perfume vials, capturing the efficient portability of accessories from that era. Reputable companies like Cartier, Van Cleef & Arpels, and Tiffany & Co. produced exquisitely crafted pieces that served as both useful accessories and status symbols, demonstrating the exceptional craftsmanship involved in their creation.
Vintage lipstick cases are nostalgic and provide insight into the lives and fashion preferences of ladies from bygone eras. They serve as a reminder of a bygone era when beauty routines were elaborate and ceremonial, in sharp contrast to the hurried, efficiency-focused approach of today. Many people have developed a passion for collecting these items because of their artistry and beauty as well as the histories and tales they represent.
Particularly for metal cases, maintaining the luster and avoiding corrosion on vintage lipstick cases requires routine polishing and mild cleaning. The excitement of the pursuit adds to the attractiveness of these treasure hunts, which lead fans to estate sales, antique shops, and online auctions. A vintage lipstick case is more than just a container, whether it is kept on a vanity or stashed away in a purse. It is a tiny piece of history and an item that captures the commitment to style and beauty of a bygone era.
Michael Jacksoп is ALIVE aпd secretly prepariпg for a MASSIVE COMEBACK, pal Akoп coпfirmed!!! MJ’s prodυcer & stylist agreed too.
He has also claimed he was a close friend of the star towards the end of his life and released the tribute song Cry Out Of Joy after his death.
Jackson’s former stylist and hairdresser Steve Erhardt, who initially wrote a Facebook message to “believers” – the singer’s fans who still cling to the idea he is still alive – in 2017 saying he had a message for them.
The message said: “A tip for the believers, the Michael Jackson believers. You heard it here first, an announcement of sorts.
COMEBACK
“And in a couple of months, or latest at the end of the year, you will be receiving some very good news.
“It’s almost unbelievable. And not even the family knows… but I do.”
Erhardt has never made public exactly what the post referred to.
In June last year he shared another enigmatic post showing only the leg of a man wearing Jacko’s trademark white socks and baggy, short black trousers.
The post said: “In a recording studio, somewhere in the world, in an undisclosed location, he’s coming soon.”
Further fuelling the strange conspiracy theories has been a YouTube channel, “BeLIEve” focused on debating if Jackson is still alive.
In one video, it states: “Michael’s friend, Hollywood hair designer Steve Erhardt, told us last year that he would give good news to Believers (I mean people who believe that Michael Jackson is alive).
“Now he shared something that excited the fans.”
Michael Turegano, who has investigated Jacko’s death for almost a decade, said that Erhardt’s claims should not be dismissed.
He said last year: “He’s been in contact with Michael in the past. So I think we should care what he says.”
Jackson died after suffering a heart attack in 2009 but some people have refused to believe that is really what happened.
His personal physician, Conrad Murray, was convicted of involuntary manslaughter over his death, which was deemed to be a homicide, the Los Angeles County Coroner ruled.
