Yes, staving, drug addict look, where people looked like they didn't weigh 80 lbs sopping wet. I hated that look and found it so off putting and totally unhealthy and unappealing. Seems like more and more people are proud of their fat ! Seems you could find a happy medium, between starved looking and looking like you eat 24 X 7.
The way you introduced corsets kind of sounded like they were the only thing used to make a thin looking waist. The thin waist was mainly created by use of padding.
Err... excuse me but the dreaded corset isn't often tight lace and if you body Changes shape is extremely highly unlikely to occur. A corset fact, the corset helps you to hold all your layers of Pentecost and skirts with minimal strength on your body.
Hi there! Thanks for offering clarification. This video is mainly focusing on the tight lacing trend, not corsets as a whole. As I said during the segment, the majority of women who wore corsets lived long and healthy lives.
I would’ve been considered very stylish by those Victorian beauty standards because I have extremely fair skin (think dead white) thanks to all of my Scandinavian ancestors. However, I would’ve had to have had help with achieving rosy cheeks and lips because they are non existent. When I worked as a docent at a living history “park” I learned about using beet juice on a cotton ball to put a bit of color on my face and lips. I didn’t actually do it and used very light makeup after visitors to the area where I worked reported to my supervisor that the lady at the large farmhouse looked like she was sick! Hahaha! I also had to demonstrate how to do some chores which a corset and several petticoats made challenging, especially bending over and going up and down stairs without tripping and or falling. My heart goes out to the servants and women who had no outside help to do the chores back then!
My grandnephew, has a very fair complexion. He get heat rashes but is very cute. I think he will be using a lot of 'ultra violet b - sun screen' lotion most of his life, for health reasons. My family is not particularly fair skinned, just my grandnephew ! I guess genes are all a roll-of-the-dice.
6:02 You haven't even begun on the corset, but I'm already cringing. Corsets aren't dangerous. Corsets were made to fit the shape of the wearer. Corsets in general were Not tight laced. Women (and men too) wore corsets to provide support not only for the bust but for the heavy skirts often worn. Corsets, stays, etc were shaped for a fashionable siluette, and changed over time, eventually being replaced by the bra. Please do not spread misinformation regarding corsets.
Hi, thanks for commenting! As you and a few others have pointed out, my sources were not great for the corset portion of this video. This was the second video I ever made and I was still getting the hang of research. I did not mean to spread misinformation about corsets, I was trying to focus primarily on the tight-lacing trend, but I should have been more clear in stating that the average person just wore it as a normal undergarment. I'm still getting used to this whole youtube thing, but I'm learning from my mistakes.
@Historidame I can imagine it must be difficult doing RUclips as a content creator. I hope I wasn't too critical. I wish you the best. If you want to do a follow-up video to this one, arsenic green in dresses, uranium in make-up to make the skin glow, and toxic medicines are or were much more dangerous. You should be able to find good source information on them too.
@@sariahmarier42Thank you for your understanding. I appreciate that you pointed out misinformation, as I want to provide the best content that I can for my viewers. Those are some great ideas for a follow up video! :)
Powder is NEVER made from flour. It’s the starch of the grain that’s used for powder, the grain is for eating. Flour doesn’t work as powder, the instant it gets damp it’s paste. 😵💫
And today, we're removing the buccal fat from our faces, and shaving down our teeth for veneers, I guess. We're no better now, we're only different. Be careful with your beauty, and focus on care first-- water, multivitamins, sunscreen, and hygiene.
Some things never change. Look at women and men, who have had that 'just one more little face lift surgery' and have totally ruined their looks. Best to look the best you can, and accept yourself as you are. Show you have earned those gray hairs and wrinkles.
Good morning from NEW ZEALAND...Really appreciate your content, narration and Historical fact and insight to the Wonders of Royalty, Aristocracy and their traditions...🌅🌲🌊👍
The Dying look here reminds me of the Junkie look (Heroine Addict) that was popular.

I was thinking the same thing!! 😂

Wow! That tapeworm thing is really creepy.😮

You're a very clever girl indeed.
I believe the Sears Catalog was a popular way to order beauty products.
You also used to be able to order entire houses from the sears catalog!
Wow and pond’s is still around today!

Not much difference from nowadays..but our times are more terrible when comes to beauty!So much toxicity around and horrible trends..is disturbing!!
If a woman was properly dressed, no one would would think she was a peasant, no matter what her color of skin.
