Welcome to the second part of my 20th Century beauty quiz, inspired by Face of the Century: 100 Years of Makeup and Style.
Filled with old pictures and beauty history facts, the book provides the details on makeup and style one decade at a time. I've already tested your makeup smarts from the 1900s-1940s, so let's see what you know for the remainder of the century.
