But in 50 years this expression was a sort of trend and have found the shots very often.
Let's look at a selection of photos and prints of the last century, and try to understand what it was.

If you saw an old ad 1950-ies, you know exactly what "Oooo Face".

It seems that every woman was doing a special expression, positioning the lips for the formation of long "OOO" sound. The models had red lipstick on her lips and stunned eyes.

Surprised female faces were adorned with promotional ads, posters, album covers and calendars.

Women eyes lips everywhere: the cover of albums and novels, pin-up, magazine covers, movie posters.

Maybe it was due to the previously portrayed image of women: the lovely fools. Let's look at the truth is not an expression of a person with great intelligence and inner strength.

It's after a hangover or time for a kiss?

From illustrations of the book "Good housekeeping".

"Oooo Face" was everywhere.

And here is why? Or something happening to her behind the scenes?

Three colors of bedding, but only one girl makes the "Oooo Face". It seems, wondering what's going on under that blanket?
