I was in Walgreens yesterday and they had a display of LE colors called Some Like it Scarlett, modeled by Scarlett Johansson A lot of it was sold out, but I did manage to get the Vintage Red Nail polish. There are 2 more Walgreens here in town so I will be checking them out. They had some nice shadow sets and lipsticks too.

I was at Walgreen's the other day and bought one of the eye shadow sets, "Bedroom Eyes." Nice neutral vintage colors--a champagne and a dark, greyed brown.
I didn't buy any of the lipsticks because I figured I already had 20+ shades of red lipstick sitting in my train case

That was the shadow set I wanted too but it was sold out. They had the one with mostly grey's called something like Film Noir, but I wanted the brown.

Yeah, I generally can't wear grays, so I passed on those sets. If I see another "Bedroom Eyes", would you like me to pick it up for you?

'Train case'. ?
"Above all, if my husband calls tell him that I am in the middle of a fitting". Anon.
A train case is a piece of luggage that you store your toiletries in; I use mine (I have two from the 1940s-50s) for cosmetic storage and for travel. I can't find a pic that's not on eBay (I can't access eBay from work), but here is a later one:

I got one of the lipsticks and the vintage red nail polish (great shade btw). I am still searching for the other lipsticks locally. No luck yet.
It was just in time too, since the stuff from the Max Factor vintage line from a few years ago had to be thrown out. They had reds and a fuschia lipstick too.
Funny thing is that for black and white film, they used to use what my mom (a member of SAG during the 40's) called "funny colors" sepia tones and the like--she described the makeup as looking really strange in person, but great on film.
Jitterbug thats a cool train case i have a twofive cosmetic box have you ever seen those they are hard to find i bought my green one on ebay they are stylish and very nice on the inside!! They are great reproductive vintage train case that come in all kinds of great reto colors!
