Old School Beauty Treatments That Should Stay Vintage

Painted On Pantyhose

People who have some knowledge about World War II likely know that even those who didn't physically fight in the war were forced to give up things because of the war. One of the items that happened to be in short supply at the time was nylon. Used in everything from parachutes to bags, the material was diverted to the war effort and away from making pantyhose for the general populace.

This led to people getting a little inventive, and it soon became fashionable to replace nylon with paint and even gravy on occasion. The idea was to basically paint your legs and make it look like you were wearing pantyhose.
