Technicolor
First used in 1916, Technicolor’s evolution had been patchy, and it was only when Technicolor Process 3 was developed in the late 1920s that it began to gain any traction with the Hollywood studios.
Elizabeth Arden
The developers of Technicolor were well aware of the sheen make-up problem. John Hay ‘Jock’ Whitney [1904-1982], a major investor in Technicolor, appears to have discussed the issue with his racetrack friend, Elizabeth Arden [1881-1966].
Max Factor
Max Factor was also looking for a better solution to the Technicolor make-up problem than the greasepaint line his company had developed for Technicolor Process 3 in the late 1920s.
Cake make-up
Pan-Cake was the product that defined what came to be called cake make-up. It was water-based, containing a highly pigmented powder incorporated into a dehydrated cream made from triethanolamine stearate (a soap), lanolin and water, so can be regarded as a dehydrated powder cream.
Dry method
The manufacturing method used to make the original Pan-Cake – later known as the wet method – was quickly superseded by the dry method.
Using Pan-Cake
Applying Pan-Cake required a moist applicator such as a sponge. The moisture in the sponge reconstituted the liquid form of the make-up, which then dried on the skin to form a film of water-repellent powder. Its use required some training as Pan-Cake tended to show streaks that were difficult to smooth over.
Sales
According to Basten, the models used on the set of ‘Vogues of 1938’ appropriated large amounts of Pan-Cake for their own use. However, they soon found that off the set the colours were too dark. Max Factor was against selling it to the general public but his son, Frank Factor, had other ideas.
