DIY Beauty Treatments Inspired by Old Hollywood Legends

- Since we are now spending more time at home, I thought it would be fun to do a video about DIY at-home beauty treatments inspired by old Hollywood.
Mae West:
Mae West was ahead of her time because she swore by coconut oil and applied it to her face and neck to keep her skin soft and youthful. A reporter who visited her at home in 1974 noted that she "talked at length about the benefits of putting coconut oil on her face"-and found the then-83-year-old dressed in a pink trouser suit and platform heels, lugging an exercise bicycle out of her dining room. Mae West also recommended babu oil, stating that "Then you'll keep your soft skin. That's how I kept mine. I always use baby oil. But it has to be warm, and you have to have a man put it on you."
Elizabeth Taylor:
Elizabeth Taylor would take a hot bath after she applied a full face of makeup before an event to set her makeup and give her skin a dewy glow. In her 1987 book Elizabeth Takes Off, she also outlines a series of home exercises that she liked to do twice a day, including the "Face Saver" which she wrote "helps promote better tone through your neck and jaw by reducing tension in your upper spine, neck, and head. I always look more relaxed and rested after I do ten." Stand straight and tall, clasp your hands behind your neck at the base. Exerting smooth, steady pressure, try to push your head and neck back while resisting with your clasped hands.Push/resist for a count of five. Repeat ten times.
Sophia Loren:
The Italian bombshell's 1984 book Women And Beauty Sofia Loren suggests that "Beauty gets you noticed, intelligence and wit demand recognition, but charm will make you memorable." Sofia recommends having a DIY spa night at least once a week. "If you have a family, a good way to schedule your spa is to pick a night that features their favorite television show. Make it clear to everyone that on that evening, during that show, you are not to be disturbed. Do not feel guilty about doing this." Sofia suggests that you start with some stretching exercises, putting on soothing music, slathering on a moisturizing face mask, and then settling into a warm tub spiked with salts, oil, or powdered milk. While marinating, pumice heels and elbows, brush your whole body with a body brush, push back your cuticles with a washcloth, and shave. Rinse with cold water, apply body lotion or oil while the skin is still damp, then give yourself a pedicure. "By the end of your spa," she writes, "you will be ready for a glass of wine or a cup of tea. And you'll be irresistible."
Rita Hayworth:
Rita was known for her beautiful red hair and her famous hair flip in the film Gilda. Rita kept her hair soft by saturating it with olive oil after washing it and wrapped it in a towel for 15 minutes before rinsing it with hot water and lemon juice.
Joan Crawford:
Joan Crawford was notoriously known for plunging her face in ice water 25 times every morning. She wrote in her 1971 book My Way of Life, after making a not-so-subtle dig at Hollywood-beloved facialists such as Erno Laszlo, "I can accomplish most of what these experts do right in my own bathroom or kitchen. So can any woman. The best beauty preparations cost only a few cents, and I frequently find them in my refrigerator. If they sound too simple to be effective, just try them." Joan claims that she used to wash her daughter's hair with raw eggs instead of shampoo. Apparently, it was a trick she used from Katherine Hepburn. "Some people use eggs beaten up with a jigger of rum; others mix an egg with red wine." Joan's favorite face masl was a blend of gelatin beaten with witch hazel, baking soda, and a whole egg. For her hair, she used mayonnaise, olive oil, eggs, and lemon juice for 15 minutes. "Rinse it off with cool water. Cool‑or, you'll have scrambled eggs on your head."

You’re skin looks extra glowy and fresh ☺️
I appreciate that in your videos you try and show a lot of their tips and tricks on yourself. It really makes your content stand out. Thank you 😊
Your hair looks incredible !!!
These women were so glamorous
💕❤️❤️💕👌
Laura have you thought of developing a vintage inspired perfume? A fragrance based an a scent popular in the past but no longer available? Just a suggestion ❤️
Great idea!🦋👍
Oh I'd love that!!
When I was having my daughter the midwife told me I looked like Elizabeth Taylor I said I wish 😂
You do
She was right !
looks like you do tho! lucky
You have the eyebrows and eye shape. So, you look a little bit like her.
You do! 🙂
Just a word of caution that for some skin types (like mine), coconut oil can cause breakouts!
Yes! Also for people with stonefruit allergy (or hay-fever which is linked to it), be careful
I miss the days of glamorous actress’s.
I love your pic! I love tuxedo babies, I have one
@@KyndalTheMeister Thank you. They are such beautiful and smart cats.
Same. Back then every actress had their own unique look and beauty. Nowadays all the actresses look alike to me.
This is way, I have ALWAYS loved the Golden age of Hollywood. Men and women really took care of themselves . The women were soooooooooo beautiful. WOW! I've been a sucker for glamour.
Women in this day were so much more gathered and glamorous than what we see now. They all had such personalities and were fierce!
I have used whipped egg on my hair and face for years as a protein moisturizing treatment. A cosmetologist reccomended it. Argon oil is fantastic for hair, face and body. For an extra treat add a few drops of lavender and/ or rose essential oil to the argon oil for the soothing and antibacterial properties. I also take distilled water and a few drops of lavender and/or rose essential oil and put it in a spray bottle. It works wonders to refresh my makeup and curls in the NC heat. I also use it to lightly mist my bed linens, throw pillows and curtains.
I strive to look glamorous at all times xx thanks for this xx
Thanks for watching
I use coconut oil to remove makeup. It works on waterproof makeup too! Just use a cleanser to remove.
Marilyn monroe never shaved her face though and she actually refused to because she said the peach fuzz gave her a glow underneath the lights
I’ve been perplexed about that one & where she got this info.
Oh interesting, I heard somewhere that Marilyn specifically didn’t shave her face because the peach fuzz combined with the Vaseline she used looked good under studio lights. Where do you find all these facts?
I read that she did
I read the same. Something about a medication she took that produced more peach fuzz than normal, and she liked it as you mentioned. Perhaps prior to that in the earlier 50s she shaved it?
I have also read that Marilyn embraced her, according to some "heaviest peach fuzz they had seen" which grew and became very visible to the naked eye due to a hormone cream she apparently used. She refused to shave it off and used it in a positive manner combined with Vaseline to create that beautiful glow she has in many of her photographs. It is also quite visible in some close-up photographs made in public by the paparazzi when she was out and about or at events. It was said to be Elizabeth Tayler whom shaved her face. But who knows. I have read both about Marilyn. However the photographs suggest that she did not. The information on who used or did what in their beauty routine can be quite confusing at times.
@Cassie Miller I had no idea she had hairy arms too. Maybe she was hairy all over? Who knows..
You're right. If you zoom in on HQ photos of Marilyn, you can see the peach fuzz on her face.
Lovely, Laura. as a struggling student bumming around France coconut oil was the go to suntan lotion 😆
Love the vintage beauty secrets💄💄💄
I am crushing on your low-contrast day glow make-up.
I have just found your page and I love your videos on vintage Hollywood scarlets/icons ❤ I've always been obsessed with them since I was 4 years old always watching Elvis Presley movies, Marilyn Monroe movies, Audrey Hupbern, James Dean and the list goes on lol...watching their movies in the afternoons on the weekend awww how I miss it so much 💗 Fantasizing about the graceful/elegance they all had. The unique rare Charisma unique era it was 😍 The beautiful one of a kind rare beauties of both women and men. The men were all so classy, charming and handsome. Also the classy women with their unique beautiful make up and their one of a kind clothes and accessories. It's so sad to think we don't have these beautiful people anymore and their beautiful fashion!! But they will always live on in our memories. 🌹🌸
I'm looking forward to watch even more vids. I have subscribed to your channel hun. Thank you Laura Jane for keeping this wonderful era alive. ❤🌸💗
Coconut oil is also great as a cold cream and for oil pulling. Great stuff, that!
You look very radiant, I mean you always do but you looked even more illuminating 😍😍✨✨✨
your skin is absolutely glowing. going to try that mask for sure.
The picture with Sophia Loren is taken from the movie 'Arabesque'
Sophia is gorgeous in that photo, Those Eyes 😍
@@KRstar78 indeed she is 😍💕
She looks radiant
Looks lovely, Laura! 💄🧖🏻♀️
Thanks lovely
I really like your makeup in this video. The peach lipstick is very flattering on you.
All great ideas, and I love all of them . I love all the simple ideas, I don't do as many these days. 😊
The background decor is stunning!!
hello! there is a book called ANITA COLBY'S BEAUTY BOOK. Anita Colby was a model and actres the first edition of her book was in 1954 and there talks about beauty rutine of that years and coment many tricks of the actresses of that time.i have one in Sapanish edicion. I love it.
c
I have heard of that one but I can’t find any copies anywhere
Por favor comparte esas rutinas en español
I find it so funny how much information we can find about our favourite celebrities' beauty routines. Yet, I wonder how it is that so many times I find the opposite having been proclaimed. For example, Marilyn Monroe- she Always wore a bra blah blah. MM swore off bras and blah blah. I've read exact opposite peach fuzz comments as her makeup preparation. One claimed she loved her peach fuzz because she thought it worked like how we use a photo filter, softening her skin and wrinkles on the edges.
Absolutely love videos like this. Like secretly getting to peak in and hear tips. Such fun.
The cold water. Always done it from age 18 I'm 54 and still loving it. It's just something one have to get used to. Your pretty good in trying everything 👏👏👏
You look fabulous! It all worked. Oil olive, over 60 years ago my baby sister had cradle cap really bad and her hair began to fall out. Mom's hairdresser told her to use warm olive oil And It did the trick! No my cradle cap and her hair grew back. I have a friend who is very particular with groomng. Her dermatologist told her to shave her face rather than any other way. Said it was the most gentle on her skin.
I love spa nights 💕 taking the time for yourself is so essential. Omg your face and hair after the treatments looks amazing!!!!!! Omg wow seriously so glowy.
So I do a lot of diy treatments. I am obsessed with using oil‘s such as castor oil, grape seed oil, jojoba oil, vitamin E oil, almond oil, coconut I make a cocktail and apply it to my hair once a week but i shampoo it out after anything like that you have too idk how back in the day they didn’t
New subscriber here. Great beauty tips from some of the greatest Hollywood legends. Thanks for including Sophia Loren; she is one of my favorites of the old Hollywood elite and my mom looked a lot like her in her youth. I’m going to search your archives to see if you have Maria Felix and Hedy Lamar on your list. BTW, your hair and skin look fabulous!
My chiropractor has me do those same neck exercises! :)
Thank you! I love this!❤️🎄🎅🏻
I love your videos sooo much! ❤️❤️ I can’t wait to get your palette soon too!
Love this video, you are a pioneer. The Elizabeth Taylor exercise feels so good down my neck. Thank you for the demo.
You just got a new subscriber . Great job doing these videos 👍 🙂 the ones I have seen so far have been really good but this one by far has to be my favorite . Keep up the good work ! 👏 👏
Hi Laura, please more look books and clothing ❤️
According to Dr Dray dermatologist on you tube coconut oil on the face is not ideal.
So very true @angela jakob
Love your makeup todayy
Thanks so much
Laura dear - a fashion writer asked Bette Davis her beauty secret - brown mascara she answered. Not easy to find!
Diorshow Iconic makes a brown mascara, as well as a cobalt blue one
Loreal voluminous makes a brown mascara and it is out of this world.
@@Lola-qu3ob I tried it and it was more on the red side, which would be ideal for a natural redhead. A warm blonde benefits from deeper browns. Black women look incredible in blue mascara. If only Maybelline brought back that iconic plum purple, it was universally flattering. Never missed a man the way I miss that mascara.
@@zahre_mar when I was a kid, I remember commercials for Maybelline mascaras in yellow, green, bright blue, maybe red? This was late 80s/early 90s.
Home made treatments sometimes could be better than buying regular products in stores. But with the big variety of products with all ingredients been sold out there makes it easier for women today to treat their skin and hair.
I also use coconut oil as my moisturizer and in my hair. it soaks right it. I love it. Great video!
The razor takes off the peach fuzz & dead skin so if you notice dusty stuff along side with the peach fuzz that's dead skin that needed to come off.
I love your make-up on this video.
My grandmother used coconut oil on her hair :)
Nice it works so well
Careful with the coconut oil it can cause breakout it is very pore clogging.
Love your channel
Disclaimer: the following is kinda gross and vegans please don’t @ me lol.
The best hair mask I’ve ever used was made with beef and mutton tallow. I don’t know what all was in it as it smelled like lavender and maybe lily of the valley?? but it was amazing and I guess the protein and fat being of an animal rather than a plant is what really made the difference for my hair?? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ just some food for thought. (Lol, food for thought, is that a pun? I don’t know)
Not a necessary thing to do
I herd beef/mutton tallow is a really good Moisturizer.
Great tips ! ❤️
We sell those shavers at Walgreens
Oh nice 👍
Sandra Wenholz : thanks for letting us know 👍
I loveee all your videos 🤩 love Joan Crawford tips 💕
Ola laura sou do Brasil,mesmo sabendo so um pouco de inglês adoro seu canal😍😍
May West did age well! As I am rubbing coconut oil into my neck! Sophia Loren didn't shave her arm pits!!!!!! Rita Hayworth had dark brunette hair. The studios died her hair red.
She sure did age well.
🌺🌺🌺Love all your videos . I found you a few months ago . Your makeup and hair look gorgeous. I’m with Mae West about the man and the baby oil lol 🌺🌺🌺
All of those secrets! Thank you so much for sharing! I also remove facial hair using that same technique but I'd like to smooth on a facial oil 1st.
Awesome! Love Joan Crawford so much!
Me too ❤️❤️❤️
Not as a mother though
Great video‼️
I love the Marilyn lipstick I got from you’re line! I wear it a lot when I don’t have a mask on😂
Your top/dress is beautiful!
Yaaaaasssss love from South Africa ❤
❤️❤️❤️
I tried a baby cream/cleanser once and still made me break out. My skin is just too sensitive.
I have read in a “Natural Beauty Secrets” book- many uses for skin care such as Oatmeal Masks, to raw egg white mask- This was published in the 1970’s I think, Laura, and don’t know if it’s available now...I have tried both of these for years, and I think they really worked well even though not as appealing as expensive creams &and lotions! It also traced some movie star secrets, and historical figures....very interesting! ☺️💕
Wonderful!
I LOVE your channel! 💕
Your hair look really nice after the treatment.
Wow your hair looks so silky and shiny!! 💖💋💖
Could you possibly do a video on the queen of the pin ups, Bettie page? As she often gets overlooked. Thank you!!
I tried that thing for the neck and omg bless
Your pink turban with the bow is so adorable! Do you remember where you got it?
Coconut oil is not good for acne prone skin
Yes it is
Laura Jane Atelier
I tried it that’s how I know
Thank you for your videos the other tips
Are exquisite, specially Joan Crawford
Marlène Dietrich has really good tips toov
It actually helped my skin very much :-) I was acne prone til age 35. Sadly most skin care products are loaded with stuff that irritates your skin. Coconut oil is great for my skin because since I've been using it I rarely have a zit. Blessings :-)
P.s. I use the fractionated kind. :-)
I had an allergic reaction to coconut oil years ago and have been afraid ever since. So, maybe you are allergic to it too?
@@solsticequeen you bet :-)
WoW! Muchas gracias. Soy de México y me gustaría mucho que estos videos estuvieran subtitulados en español, por favor.
hi ♥️
please what foundation and concealer do you use?
You have beautiful skin
I shave my face as well. It really helps my skin.
I thought Marilyn kept her peach fuzz to have a dewy finish I'm sure she did
You’re right. She did keep her peach fuzz.
*Thank you for being inspiring, informative, and lovely as always, Laura Jane!! Could you provide some information regarding the doll which you have on display next to the picture of the Siamese cat? It would be most appreciated.*
I like to do a bit of avocado oil or apricot oil on my hair before washing, at least for 30 minutes, concentrating on the ends. I’ve tried coconut and it’s far too heavy for my fine hair. I remember doing mayo masks on my hair in the 80’s. Rinsing hair with beer was popular too. I do several treatments every week. I don’t have a television. You’d be surprised how much time is wasted on tv/movies. I’d rather spend that time on myself.
Great content!
I love baby oil I wear it everyday the aloe Vera one and my Fiance loves it now because he knows I love it, he has excema so it keeps his skin soft😘🌸🌹🌹🌻
I like my peach fuzz :-) it actually kind of blurs imperfections in my opinion. There are a lot of famous women including Jane Seymour who have visible peach fuzz and in my opinion doesn't hurt their looks at all :-)
I moisturize my face daily with coconut oil (liquid not the solid) in fact it's the only moisturizer I use on my face and it does a great job plus I credit it for ending my breakouts.
Your hair is gorgeous! What shampoo and conditioner do you use?
Thanks so much! Send me a dm on Instagram I will tell you
@@Laurajaneatelier My Instagram isn't working. Do you have twitter?
I love that pink head scarf where did you get it ❤️💞
Love your vintage celery dish at 7:42...I have a pretty green one ❤❤❤❤ do you have any makeup etc info on Greta Garbo? Thanks for the awesome videos
Love it
While I do try to always wash my face with cold water ... don’t know if I could dedicate to doing it 25 times a day .... that’s a lot 😆
Were you able to get the olive oil and mayo off of your hair turban? I would be super worried about that, like it wouldn't come out in the washing machine.
They say you’re supposed to put your face in icewater like dunk it. And hold it for as long as you can. It’s to help the collagen. People swear by it. I’ve never tried it myself
I am in my 40s and my skin is still very oily so I only use Noxzema to wash my face so they must have had dry skin to use some of these.
I always have used coconut oil on my face but I have really dry skin and I let it sit overnight and wipe it off in the morning.
I know you sell cosmetics but you're even prettier without make up
Wow, i’m new to your channel, you’re so beautiful. can we see a video where you do your full face of makeup?
Avon also sells these shavers
Can you please share the recipe for Joan’s face mask?
I love splashing my face with ice water I do it twice a day 30 times each.
Hallo! Kannst du mir schreiben wo man die nagellacke bekommt die du in der Dose hast lg.Andrea
Ich bezweifle, dass sie deutsch spricht, aber die Produkte die man da sieht sind von Revlon. Die Marke findest du zumindest in Deutschland in manchen Rossmann Filialen, es kann aber sein, dass ihre Nagellacke Vintage sind und heutzutage eine andere Verpackung haben.
Nice! What's the big perfume on Lizzys vanity?!?!
In the first Liz pic, the Big white Label one!
If I had a channel .. I would definitely say"Helllo my donkey's"
Personally when I use a face razor like that I only do the areas that look sloppy and grow in dark like my upper lip, side burn area and to shape around the eyebrow. I dont understand why people shave off ALL their peach fuzz. Your pores need hair to wick away sweat or it will sit on your skin and I feel like it's a lot of up keep. I dont know about you but my hair grows back in a day or two. That's just how I feel though 🤷♀️
😍😍😍😍😍
