Thanks to a very nice volunteer who finds most collabs as irresistible as I do, there’s a new blog post up! Check out the licensing trend and tell us what you want to see. (Still miffed there hasn’t been a Kraft Mac and cheese collab yet.) #MakeupMuseum...
Courtesy of a game show historian (!), there’s a very exciting update to the Makeup Museum’s article on CBS makeup artist Blanche Hunter. Check it out! https://bit.ly/2YucgAX #MakeupMuseum #MakeupHistory #BHM2023
Happy Lunar New Year from the Makeup Museum! 🐰It’s fewer objects than in previous years…about half of what I ordered didn’t make it here in time, alas. Hopefully I’ll remember to take an updated photo. #LunarNewYear2023 #YearOfTheRabbit #MakeupMuseum
Finally, a new blog post! Read about the beautiful makeup designs of the Seri (Comcáac) people. #MakeupMuseum #MakeupHistory www.makeupmuseum.org/home/2022/12/seri-comcaa...
#Museum30, day 2: #WhoAmI: I’m still the cranky, stubborn 40-something founder and curator of the #MakeupMuseum. I work full-time at an unrelated job but give the Museum as much attention as I can. I also like to make MM merch for myself, like this shirt. 😂
#Museum30, day 1: #Museum. The #MakeupMuseum has evolved so much in its 14 years of existence, but the mission has always been the same: to create a space where makeup’s artistic, cultural and historical significance is being studied and preserved, and accessible to all. 💄
Step 1 of collection storage reorganization is done. About 10,000 more to go, but it’s a start! 😅#MakeupMuseum #MuseumStorage

Happy #WorldElephantDay! This isn’t near the entirety of elephant themed makeup but a decent selection. 🐘❤️#MakeupMuseum
The Museum’s 14th (!) anniversary today was spent writing again. 🎉👩🏻💻Even after all these years of frustration at my incredibly slow pace and total lack of talent, overall I still enjoy the process. 🥰 #MakeupMuseum #Anniversary #HappyPlace
Belated #NationalLipstickDay celebration! Don’t know if it was a tea party, cocktail party or costume party but it looked fun! #MakeupMuseum #VintageMakeup
Spent the whole day writing. I find having the objects right in front of me helpful. 😅#BehindTheScenes #MakeupMuseum
Finally finished a post on a relatively new Chinese brand, Florasis. The amount of culture they pack into their products is staggering!😅Check it out and let me know what your favorite objects are. ❤️💄#MakeupMuseum

Day job is way too busy and stressful as of late…fortunately a big donation just came in to brighten my week. 😭❤️#MakeupMuseum #ThankYou
Finally revisited the topic of #CulturalAppropriation in makeup. Not pleasant but necessary. Also reminded me of how many other topics need updating. #MakeupMuseum #MakeupHistory

Happy #InternationalMuseumDay to fellow museums across the globe! I’m grateful to have learned so much from you and be part of the museum community. I hope the #MakeupMuseum will help change both museums and makeup for the better. 💖💄
So pleased and honored to welcome the Museum’s 2nd ever official in-person visitor today! @Shybiker1234 is going to be here soon! (I’m still tidying up like a maniac.) 😆 #MakeupMuseum
Salvador Dalí was born #OTD in 1904. Here are a few pieces from the Parfums Salvador Dalí makeup line, which debuted in 1989. (The perfume was released earlier). Maybe someday I’ll get around to that surrealism in makeup post I’ve been wanting to do.😅#MakeupMuseum #VintageMakeup
New IG post: yet more butterfly additions to the collection. 🦋💖#MakeupMuseum

Working on an update of my post about cultural appropriation in makeup and uh, I really wish I hadn’t waited 9 years after it was first published. 🤦🏻♀️There is much to catch up on. #MakeupHistory #MakeupMuseum
Went down quite a few rabbit holes looking for information on this unusual lipstick. Didn’t turn up much, but it’s interesting nevertheless. #MakeupMuseum #VintageMakeup #MakeupHistory

Obviously I need to think through it more (with so many people involved it would probably be a nightmare), but there are some great collections both private and public, it would be nice to highlight them in a unified way.😅#MakeupMuseum
Happy 80th birthday to Serge Lutens! Still haven’t acquired his book for the Museum’s library so these ‘80s and ‘90s Shiseido ads are the next best thing. #MakeupMuseum #MakeupHistory
