For decades, the archetype of the "vixen" was synonymous with heavy makeup. She was the screen siren with the sharp winged liner, the false lashes, and the blood-red lip. She was artifice—a glorious, glamorous construction of smoke and mirrors.

Wash your face. Oil your lashes. Mess up your hair. Put on a red lip stain so it looks like you just ran a marathon or won a fight.
