The latest 100 Years video from Cut Video is out, and this time the attention is on the evolution of Indian beauty. We've actually been quite fascinated with this topic ourselves lately, especially the gorgeous wedding makeup. This two-minute clip tracks a century of hair and makeup traditions, including mehndi, bindi, and veils. The one beauty trend that has lasted and is present in almost every decade from 1910 to 2010 is the dramatic eye makeup. Make sure to watch the other installments in the Cut Video series including the Korean timeline and the Filipina chronicles.
