POV: You found the original beauty influencer starter pack. đź’„đź’—

Before “Get Ready With Me” videos and makeup hauls, there was this 1970s Mary Kay Travel Kit. Packed for beauty parties, road trips, and evenings out—it’s giving soft pink, main-character energy decades before anyone had a name for it.

She’s vintage. She’s iconic. She’s the blueprint.

Lighting, lighting, and more lighting. đź’ˇ

Lanterns. Chandeliers. Shades. Sconces. Fixtures. Parts.

If it’s lighting-related, there’s a good chance it’s hiding somewhere in the shop waiting to be found.

“This fellow has seen some things.”

We’re not entirely sure what stories he’d tell, but we’re pretty sure they’d get better with every retelling.

Blue eyes, weathered grin, trusty pipe, and a rain hat that’s clearly been through a few storms. The kind of character that doesn’t need an introduction—he just settles in and makes himself at home.

What would you name him?
