Not much for glamour but did Amelia Earhart carry Maybelline with her on the plane?

This 1941 Vintage Maybelline ad was produced just four years after Amelia Earhart's plane was lost and War was declared on the Japan.

When I think about Amelia Earhart's plane crashing onto a reef off a remote island in the Pacific Ocean I can't help but wonder if her courageous Spirit wasn't there to help direct and protect our boys during one of the darkest hours in American history. I know she still inspires me to dream bigger and bolder and go beyond my own comfort zone. How about you? What do you think about Amelia Earhart's incredible journey into the unknown with the heart of a Lion.

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Secretary of Transportation Ray LaHood say they're throwing their support behind a privately-financed search to uncover the fate of American aviator Amelia Earhart, who went missing in flight 75 years ago. AP video. (March 20)

In the first video they show some cosmetics found in the possible wreckage. Freckle cream, rouge and a broken mirror from a compact. Is it possible Maybelline was also on the plane in Amelia Earhart's make-up bag??? if so this is what it would have looked like in 1937.
