Eyelashes are a staple item to every makeup look and beauty enthusiast. Lashes have always been known to make your eyes pop and stand out from the crowd. As important as how they make us look, they also help keep dirt or substances from entering the eye and aid in preventing infections.  

Another important benefit eyelashes provide is preventing eye moisture from evaporting. Lashes shade our eyes in a variety of lengths and colors as well. Needless to say, eyelashes are a true necessity for every person at any age.

February 19 - Frank Tashlin

Happy Birthday, Frank Tashlin!

In 1938, Tashlin worked for Disney in the story department. Later that same year, he left American film producer Leon Schlesinger's studio after his second term there. As opposed to the salary he made at Warner Bros. at $150 a week, he made three times less at Disney at only $50 a week. 

  

Aside from his short cartoon features, as a filmmaker, Tashlin is best known for co-writing and directing the 1955 American Technicolor musical comedy romance film 'Artists and Models'. 

  

The film follows painter Rick Todd (Dean Martin), who is having difficulty with his career. Because of this, he starts taking inspiration from the dreams of his friend and roommate, Eugene Fullstack (Jerry Lewis), a comic book fan who narrates an adventure story while he sleeps.  

  

Unbeknown to Eugene, Abigail Parker (Dorothy Malone), the artist for his favorite comic book, lives in the same building with her roommate, Bessie Sparrowbush (Shirley MacLaine), the model for Abigail's drawings. Eventually, the two pairs meet, and Bessie takes to Eugene. 

  

Tashlin had been active from 1930–1972.

Happy 74th Birthday, Luis Puenzo! Born today in 1946 as Luis Adalberto Puenzo, this Argentine screenplay writer, producer and film director works mainly in the cinema of Argentina, but has also worked in the United States.
