I had read a comment quite a while back of someone saying the lady in blue was their grandmother. They said it was nice to see her again in this video. I sure wish that commenter would come back and tell us stories about her grandmother, what she did in her life, how many children and grandchildren she has, she sure looked so glamorous back then. I love old stories like that.
They should bring this type of service back. I spend so much money just to find the right shade and I'd happy to just pay the premium for someone to find and make it. Foundation is the hardest to find the right shade.
They exist. Just not widely available. Years ago I had custime foundation and powder blended at Macy's and I can tell you it seemed great but once I got it home it was MEH!
I know a few brands offer this in Korea for foundations but it's not very widespread since it's expensive. Such a bummer I'd totally save up just to the the perfect match
You know not everyone in the world/our country was racist/sexist at that particular time, or even now.. but still today there's still sexism and racism, it'll never be erradicated

Prescriptives used to do this back in the 1990s, and I spend $44 bucks on a custom powder mix from them. If had more money back then, I'd have gotten more. Best face powder I ever had! They really need to bring custom powder mixing back!
Kake woke af. But yeah, there's no good reason that I shouldnt be able to hit up Sephora for my perfect shade of pressed powder. People of color would probably feel less like an afterthought by beauty brands too, and that's the real tea.
@@bilboswaggins9921 Not just people of colour. I went into a shop and there was no single foundation shade for me even tho Dior etc was featured there... Because I'm too pale. The sad truth is, they just cater to medium skin tones and not even all of them. Really light or dark skin struggles with that... And people with different undertones..
“This new process, called pressing…” Good LORD we have come a looooong way. EDIT: People kinda misunderstood my comment. What I meant was “wow we’ve come a long way from considering pressing a new process”.
Wow! A large amount of cosmetics are either too dark for my skin, or make me look unnatural because they are too yellow or pink, etc. I love the idea of custom colours!
I always try to buy the palest shade but I sometimes struggle with my yellow undertone because even though I'm trying on the lightest shade.. they still are too dark for me 😫 and I'm not even that white 😶 can't imagine how it must be for someone with a lighter skin tone 💔
@@SuperMiIk there's ppl that too pale it's hard to find a match. And you probably exaggerating, because in us that light color which appears in foundation mostly medium light.
@manko it's just that I live in Mexico and it's a little bit difficult for me to find a good matching tone u.u specially in my town...not exaggerating, just a problem we have here
I remember Charles of the Ritz consultants in Harrods I think it was, mixing powder like this for my mum when I was a child. It was fascinating to watch them, and I've had a love of make-up💄ever since.
I use to do this when I worked in the cosmetics dept at a dept store. A professional rep of this one company would occasionally come in and women would have their perfect shade broken down & put on a file card. When they needed more, they'd come in, we'd pull their card and mix up their formula. The colors weren't that vivid, more like different shades/tones of beige. The blending part took awhile, 10-15 mins. But it was all loose powder, we didn't press it.
The art of mixing colors to produce a shade... I still love it i don't care if its powder paint or whatever color medium you choose, it's still fascinating.
I wish this was something that'd still happen in a Macy's makeup department or something. I can't ever find a makeup that matches my skin tone, and also I just think it'd be fun to watch.
Why have I watched this like 19 times?!??! Every time it pops up in my recommended, I'm like "Ooh! I like this video!" 😍 at least every two months this happens
I literally love this video, the process of making the powder, the colors, how the lady at the counter mixes everything like a true pro. And the charm of the lady in blue, observing everything happily and very curious ❤❤❤
This should totally be a complimentary service at department store beauty counters or Sephora, especially since even when brands do have good shade ranges, which is unfortunately rare, it’s still difficult to find the right one.
I remember being fascinated by the different colors and intently watching the women behind the counter at Lazarus Department Store in Columbus,Ohio when I was a kid.
@@thehermit8618 we can criticize the past while still enjoying certain aspects of it...??? I don't see the point you're trying to make...? I just cant relate to you.
my mother was 20 in 1953 and sge said face powder was always hand mixed for you while you waited to match your skin exactly. SHou,d STILL be done today. Look how clean and white everything is... OH I WISH I COULD GO BACK IN TIME FOREVER TO THIS ERA!
I never get tired of watching this video. It is like magic. Love it !! And the ladies are so glamorous. Flawless skin and those perfectly manicured nails. Just divine. We need to bring that glamorous look back asap.
How amazing, I had no idea face powder was done like this, this is art. What's great with this is that the make-up artist sees you and can mix the perfect shade for you.
@@BabsChannel I believe KewpieGirl means the customized process. Yes, I'm aware custom blended foundations, lipsticks, etc are still available today, but not for the everyday consumer and its not done in front of you like this. You're not able to walk into a Sephora or other cosmetic store, chat with a beautician, and walk out same day with a custom blended compact of foundation made just for you. I wish i could afford this though, i can never find the appropriate shade for my skin tone :/
Wow! This should still be done, a personalized formula would be perfect! So many people still have a hard time finding the right color for their skin on the pre-made products.
They still do. There are makeup stores all over cities like NYC, LA, London, Paris, Tokyo, etc that mix and match makeup from scratch. Safiya Nygaard did videos on some of the shops.
I highly doubt that it had much (if any) toxic chemicals in it and it certainly wouldn’t have radioactive materials in it because everyone knew they were deadly. And I believe lead was found out to be toxic by then.
That should exist nowadays too. Every woman has a different shade. Nowadays the cosmetic industry dictates the shades we should have and there is less acceptance for individuality in skin shades. We often wear make-up that's not our shade. Someone should change that. I'm in love with the individual powder ❤️
We did this at Prescriptives cosmetics line . We made our foundation and powder in front of the customer. “ custom made “ it was actually crazy as hell . Not as glamorous as this was ! 🤪
@@Lillithowl awesome! Thank you for acknowledging our hard work! Those were the days .I do miss the powders we made and highlighters we put in our foundations. Have a wonderful day!
The first loose powder I ever bought was custom blended by Prescriptives. Not only did they customize the color but they had different formulas according to skin type. I loved the Prescriptives line. I miss them terribly. I stopped buying when they strayed too far from their original concept of customized color and became like every other cosmetics line. I still miss them.

I remember that, I used to get my foundation custom blended by Perscriptives.
@@Lillithowl awesome! Thank you for acknowledging our hard work! Those were the days .I do miss the powders we made and highlighters we put in our foundations. Have a wonderful day!
@@frenchtoast7742 I remember that brand!! Never did buy any as I was in high-school at the time. I wish it was still around 😪
The first loose powder I ever bought was custom blended by Prescriptives. Not only did they customize the color but they had different formulas according to skin type. I loved the Prescriptives line. I miss them terribly. I stopped buying when they strayed too far from their original concept of customized color and became like every other cosmetics line. I still miss them.
So cool that they basically did colour correction as part of the formulation. I would LOVE a bespoke powder / foundation!!!
