Hello lovelies, today, I will be talking about Daisy Buchanan’s favorite beauty products. Daisy Buchanan is a fictional character in F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby (1925). In the novel, Daisy is depicted as a married woman with a daughter who is reunited with her former lover Jay Gatsby, arousing the jealousy of her husband, Tom. Daisy was born into a wealthy Louisville family. By 1917, Daisy had several suitors of her same class but fell in love with Jay Gatsby, a poor soldier. Before Gatsby left for war, Daisy promised to wait for him. After Gatsby started attending Trinity College, Oxford, Daisy sent him a letter revealing that she had married Tom Buchanan. During the marriage, Daisy gave birth to a daughter, Pammy, who Daisy had hoped would be “a beautiful little fool.” Daisy and her family settled in East Egg, a wealthy old-money enclave on Long Island. In the 1920s, women started to wear makeup due to the inventions of the compact and retractable lipstick tube. Cosmetics before this period were more widely used by prostitutes and showgirls and not the general population. As the decade progressed, the quality of makeup improved. The number of products went from a few dozen to 450 by 1924. By the end of the twenties, there were 1300 brands and shades of face powder, 350 rouges, and a hundred red lipsticks. It was a 52 million dollar industry.

Jacques Guerlain created Shalimar in 1921, but after another company claimed to have a fragrance by the same name already, Guerlain was forced to rename the fragrance “No. 90” until a legal dispute over the name was settled. Shalimar was re-released in 1925 at the International Exposition of Modern Industrial and Decorative Arts.

Elizabeth Arden added some new items to her range and increased the shade range of her existing lines, which included making allowances for the darker skin tones created by the suntanning craze. Daisy’s favorite lipstick was a classic red Elizabeth Arden shade that was available in the 1920s. The packaging of the Ceramide Ultra Lipstick is based on the lipstick design fro the 1920s with the Art Deco-inspired tube.
