Imagineering Sparkling Faces

I've written about my love of Imagineering company numerous times on this blog.

This Imagineering Party Makeup dates from 1987, so it's a little after my time and appears to be aimed at the Glitter Rock crowd, also not my crowd.  You can also see it was purchased from Venture (a local midwest department store similar to K-Mart) for $6.39. Quite pricey for 1987.

The guy in the middle looks like a reject from Mad Max.

Th guy in the upper right has seen "Cats" a few too many times.

The woman on bottom right: "That's right. That's where I put the butterfly 'tattoo'.  Rowrrrrr...".  I have nothing to say about the creepy guy stalking behind her.

Let's read Imagineering's committment.

"Laboratory tested for maxium safety".  I'm seeing a lab full of glittered bunnies with spiked fur.

"Contains the finest ingredients"...we could afford.

"Easy to use following simple instructions"  Unfortunately, our instructions are complicated.

"Exciting professional results".  You'll look so much like a real Glitter Rocker, the local biker gang will jump you and give you a good beat down.

"Easy to remove"...in about six months.

The box had been opened and taped shut, so I opened it to see what was inside.

It contained some dried up paint, some spray hair color, a pencil and application brush and a bag of glitter.  I managed to get glitter all over myself and my desk. I hope you're happy.

And speaking of what's inside, here are the ingredients:

They contain Sodium Benzoate.  At least it's not Potassium Benzoate.

I've included the instructions for application, just in case you've been hanging onto a box of makeup all these years, but lost the instructions.  And maybe it will give you some ideas for a costume this year.

If this post didn't put a sparkle on your face, why not makeup your mind to head over the Countdown.  All that glitters there is gold.  I truly sorry for that.
