- Hello lovelies,
Today I will be trying Marilyn Monroe's 1959 skincare routine created by Erno Lazlo.
Marilyn Monroe went to great lengths to ensure her skin was perfect. She enlisted Erno Lazlo, who catered to old Hollywood royalty with his groundbreaking skincare techniques. There is a written copy of Marilyn Monroe's prescription that consists of a complicated series of solutions and potions that were created specifically for her. Most of the products from her skincare routine are still available today, including the moisturizing bar of soap, which was supposed to be rinsed with thirty splashes of water instructed by Erno Lazlo.
Marilyn Monroe's skin care regime:
"Erno Laszlo not only heals my skin, but he soothes my soul"
MARILYN MONROE
Dr. Laszlo specifically created Phormula 3-8 for Marilyn Monroe to heal a scar on her stomach and kept her well stocked with Active Phelityl Cream, an all purpose moisturizer, for her signature on-screen glow.
Morning Routine:
Marilyn's morning routine began with a face cleansing using Erno Lazlo Active Phelityl Soap and warm water. After cleansing, she was instructed to apply Erno Laszlo Normalizer Shake-It. This product was a tinted mattifying toner that was relaunched in honor of the brand's partnership with the makeup museum. Marilyn was told to shake the bottle and saturate a piece of cotton "to the dripping point" and applying it all over her face, except the delicate eye area, then blotting off immediately. For the eyes, Marilyn was to use the Erno Laszlo pHelitone Eye Cream, which has been discontinued, followed by the discontinued Duo-Phase Face Powder over her entire face and neck.
Evening Routine:
Before retiring to bed in the evening, Marilyn was instructed to apply Erno Laszlo's Active Phelityl Oil to the skin, rinsing it off, then drying with a towel. Next, the rich Erno Laszlo Active Phelityl Cream was to be applied to the entire face and washed off with a piece of cotton saturated, this time with well-shaken Erno Laszlo Controlling Lotion toner. The skin was to be again dried with a clean towel, with the Controlling Lotion re-applied only to the nose and chin areas and left to dry thoroughly overnight.

I wonder if in 50 years from now, our descendants will make videos about vintage makeup and skincare like Fenty Beauty, Glossier and The Ordinary lol
Haha one can hope
I’m sure they will
And Kylie skin lol😄💗
More like tiktok beauty hacks, how to cook in toaster and do challenges and live to tell about it
Lmao I don’t think so
For a photographic look of what Marilyn's skin looked like while using the Erno Laszlo products, I can recommend doing a search of the photo session she did in 1962, the year she passed away, with photographer Willy Rizzo. Her skin has that soft matte focus that the Shake It toner combined with the Laszlo duo phase powder produces. She's definitely less glowy than her earlier photos we are used to seeing. The Vaseline highlighting/priming and heavier cream-based makeup don't appear to be something she wore unless she was filming at that point in her life. Her lipstick shades had also changed from the glossy, red hot reds to a peachy softer shade then based on photographs. I suspect her skin was changing as well with age. She was 36 years old, hardly old at all, but her skin seemed very different than it was in her 20's glamour photo sessions. She was morphing into a softer, freer, more natural look. I wonder who she may have become in her journey.
She had always used orange lipstick, Technicolor just made it look red. They had to work backwards to get the color they wanted on film. Same with contouring!
Her lipstick was actually
A bright orange
It showed Red on Film
It was Pure Pigment
Red lipstick even tho
It had been taken off
Still looked blue on film
An hour long video, AND it's about Marilyn? Thank you Laura !!!
Haha thanks
Definitely an early Christmas gift 🥰 🎁
That is why she used Vaseline & Nivea, I understand that she and Lazlo used to argue quite often. My mothers friend who was from Belgium was an assistant to Lazlo & friends with Marilyn. She left to marry in 1959, but she and my mother remained friends from 1950 to my mothers death.
So interesting
They used to argue? How do you know?
Here’s a little advice. When cleansing the face or when applying moisturizer, sunscreen, or even foundation, try applying the product to your face using an upward massage motion instead of an downward massage motion. The upward massage motion will help to contradict sagging of our skin due to gravity and age. :)
So said Mary Kay cosmetics guru
I overdo face creams too. So did my mother. I use way too much dishwashing liquid when I was dishes too. 😂
Marilyn didn’t start using Erno Laszlo until the late 1950s, and I think her skin looked drier after she used EL over time. Her skin was much more glowy prior to that time.
Yeah I agree
her skin looked glowy because she always used vaseline
Agreed
I tried the EL +
My skin became parched
I've used Errno Laszlo for decades. My skin is oily (still), so I never tried the vaseline. But I still get compliments regularly on my skin - I'm 65.
Do you still use Laszlo?
Same here !
I used to use the Shake-It back in the early 1980's. Lazlo was very, very chic at the time. I was pleased with the Shake-It but couldn't continue using it because of the price. A shame because I had extremely oily skin back then and the Shake-It seemed to help normalize it. Nowadays I have normal-to-dry skin and won't go near Lazlo products because of all the alcohol in them (and also the price).
Loved the video, great job and I admire your courage in trying all these old techniques. Because of you I am once again using Vaseline on very dry patches on my body, and it works better than anything else. I wouldn't touch it for years until I saw your videos.
The Erno Lazlo website has it on sale all the time. Right now it’s 30% off. They changed the packaging and the formula a bit as far as the colors.
Pinky likes to be a star tooooo❣
Haha totally
For the Shake it you need a cotton ball. The instructions say apply and dripping, then wipe. I used Laszlo for years. The cleansing routine is the absolute magic. They still sell the products but are teaching the correct cleansing routine for each skin type. There is also a very emollient phelityl cream to be used on normal to dry areas for that extra moisture barrier. Which is even used on oily skin. If used with proper instruction your skin will be the best EVER! I can promise that!
I used Erno Laszlo in the mid 1970’s and got so many compliments on my skin. It became too expensive to continue however. At the Neiman Marcus beauty counter they would analyze your skin ( based on a clock- my skin was 12:00-normal.) Then they picked out the appropriate products and gave specific instructions on their use. I remember using the oil, then the soap, THEN the shake-it tinted treatment. I also had an eyecream and the powder. In the evening I cleansed the same way, followed by the toner, then the cream last. Perhaps Marilyn’s skin was oilier than mine?
Wow cool
Marilyn actually had dry skin and that is why she used Vaseline as a makeup primer and highlighter 👌🏻
@@Thegirlwiththegoldeney3 I did wonder about this, I wonder why it makes Laura dry but didnt with Monroe. Interesting isnt it.
I also used the EL system based on the clock. I had the powder blush which I loved. I have still used thecontainer the sea mud soap came in. But it got too expensive. Every once in a while I can find EL products at TJ Maxx. But it was a good system.
@@carolpeterson8809 I found an EL eye cream the other day for $15 I wanted to buy it but I had to leave, and when I came back it was gone lol
Yes the 3-9 formula is sooooo fabulous. Can also be used on burns . My very favorite. Remember, different routine for different types of skin. Very very important!
Her real actual secret was using hormone cream. People who knew her personally said, that was what she used most. Hormone cream was commonly used in the 50's and 60,s. I use it as well and the glow is real. 💖😘💫
What is hormone cream ??
@@KH-xj5qw I will reveal it soon on my RUclips channel! Stay tuned! 🥰
@@KH-xj5qw progesterone cream? It might make you hairier?
I would love to see you do Marilyn’s skin routine and makeup routine to see how they would work today. I’m very curious 🧐 how Marilyn was able to do this base on what you shown in this video.
This was your very best video ever, Laura! I super enjoyed you reviewing Marilyn’s skincare routine. I’ve been so curious about Erno’s line too. Just loving your channel!
Awe thanks so much
I used phormula 3-9 repair cream about 15 years ago and liked it, but as you said, for the price point was expecting a miracle. I have a big jar of Pond's Cold Cream that I use every day along with original Olay Cream, Nivea, Vaseline, that keeps my dry skin in great shape. You're so beautiful Laura and enjoy the skincare series very much. Pinky is a darling.
The formula 3-9 cream was created by Erno
Laszlo for Marilyn’s scar from gall bladder surgery.
Contrary to the popular belief that Marilyn had really dry skin, I think she had it oily but kinda dries it up with Erno Laszlo products. Idk.
But this video is really relaxing to watch. Makes me wanna do my skincare while watching it. Thumbs up to you, Laura!
You did amazing! 🥰
Hi..just discovered your channel this am….I used to use Lazlo for yrs….I had his big book too….the reason for removing the cream w/toner is bc his philosophy was that creams made your skin saggy….he said like throwing a scoop of ice on the wall & it runs down…..so his creams hydrate, then you remove excess to keep skin firm
Ahhhh....I'm so excited!!!! I love these!!! Thank you so much Laura....love you❤️🥰💞
Absolutely love ❤this video always loved marilyn monroe glowing skin .thank you for the information about these products and routine. 💋⭐
Thanks so much for watching 💕💕
I always love all of your Marylin Monroe videos, thank you so much miss Laura ❤️💕
Your skin looks great! I can see a difference. Youthful and dewy.
Thanks so much
Their toner contains a lot of alcohol, I only found out after I bought it unfortunately. These types of toner age your skin overtime!
Ya it dried me out
I get so excited when you upload! Thank you!
I love these videos you've been doing because while they are informative, I also find them relaxing.
She naturally had gorgeous skin!!
I wonder how similar the modern formulations are to what Marilyn used?
Dear Laura, I absolutely adore your videos. Listening to you voice and content is so educational & relaxing 💗🌸 please never stop
In response to your question about the toner method: Only apply a gentle once over with the toner, it leaves your skin glowing
Hi Laura! This video was great! Your dedication, production and wear with all is fantastic! I have a tiny, minuscule channel and know I couldn't pull off something this big! What an amazing job you've done! This was great thank you as always!
I'm sure it's a lot of work to make these longer videos but I was so excited to see the time! I love your videos so much! Thank you for all the hard work you put into creating such beautiful, educational, and entertaining content!
♥️♥️
Love Marilyn Monroe! Thanks for sharing
I am very happy to see this video. I have been a Lazslo devotee for the last 20 years. I get many compliments on my skin. Everyone tells me my skin glows, is very clean and smooth. I use the phelityl oil, sea mud soap, phelityl lotion, active cream, light controlling lotion. The Normalizer shake it just made a return about a year ago. I used it for several years then became unavailable in this country for many years. The key to the entire line is the cleansing ritual - using the oil on dry skin, followed by the massage w/ the cleansing bar, working up a lather between the hands from the bar and massaging into the face and neck, then rinsing 20 times w/ the same "cleansing water", followed by ten splashes w/ fresh hot water. Pat the skin dry, while the skin is still warm and moist apply the toner, followed by the appropriate treatment products, then seal in w/ the prescribed moisturizer. Your skin will be glowing and youthful.
Exactly! I started using it at 21 in 1981, used for 40 years ( I tried, LaPrairie, Sisley,LaMer,Natura Bisse through the years as I’ve had friends that sell those lines. I always get compliments when I was using Laszlo though. I always do the exact routine you mentioned, splashes are the key!
The more complicated a skincare routine the more I think MM would Like it, she would have loved all the directions as well because she always had to be told what to do, so I suppose Lazlo tapped into her need for her neurotic tendencies for someone to direct everything she did including a face care routine, There are many people like that as well so this tapped into a market of people who were looking for that,Kudos to him for finding that niche in the market
that video is so relaxing
Thanks for watching
Thanks for documenting this! ❤
thanks Laura I never heard about this technique, I will give this a try with similar products
Thank you for doing the skin care routine Marilyn Monroe used! I wish I could be there with you to smell what Marilyn Monroe smelled when she used his routine! I can never afford to do this routine. Thank you for sharing with your fans! It means very much to us. Thank you thank you thank you!
I’ve been subscribed to your channel for some years now and I thank you for your content and historical information on these icons!!! Cool video content, thank you for trying her routine ❤
Your skin is dry because there is a lot of denatured alcohol and fragrance in Erno Lazslo products. Thanks for sharing the routine tho. It was AWESOME!!
Very true
The "old Hollywood smell" is real! I get it from those products ... I think it's amazing. And as you said, it's like a time machine
Hi Laura! So happy I found your channel! Your skin is so gorgeous, Wow! Thanks for doing this Marilyn Monroe cleansing routine! I always wondered what Marilyn used and if it had a ' vintage ' scent. 💖
Such a timely video. I visited and left flowers for Marilyn Monroe recently. 🎄
Could you reach out to the company and ask them why he would want to remove the moisturizer with the toner and let us know what they said?
Such a good idea!
I love Marilyn and I adore your intro! Your videos are so comfy.
Thanks so much
Laura, I love that your bringing these iconic ladies back to LIFE" in these historic & classic videos.
I know it's slightly irrelevant though,but I find your classy & soothing & quiet voice lovely.
I was totally enjoying the MM skin care routine,me being A HUGE HUGE MM FAN!!!
I heard she also slept on satin pillowcases to keep her hair soft, & satin sheets .....well .....so she could sleep in her favourite outfit for bedtime"CHANEL NO 5 ( ONLY) I don't mean pjs either.
I'm talking....FRAGRANCE!!!!!
FYI end result : Laura you look beautiful! I've a cat too!
Hi to Pinky
From Pumpkin the female cat!
Gracias x tus maravillosos videos!! ⚘⚘❤
You are so right, the toner smells so good and vintage-y
Your skin looks amazing. Amping up my work so I can afford Erno Laszlo 😃
I wonder if you would put the moisturizer on and let absorb for a bit then blot with the toner to take off excess oil ??? Or maybe he had her put it on so that it wouldn't strip too harshly when she used it ??? It does seem impractical now a days especially with all of the science behind skin now.
You did a brief Ernie Laszlo a year ago and I gave it ago . I use the cleansing pore system and I’ve never looked back . I get so many compliments. Expensive but goes a long way. So thankyou
Pinky is the best,so beautiful 💕
Thank you 🙏
Nice video! And what a cute cat!
I used his line in the 1980s. I was a 3:00 (very oily). I remember a black soap, toner, and two types of shake-its (one for am; another for pm)
Oh neat
I am a 3:00 o'clock too. I have the same ritual, have been using the products for the last 20 years.
@@danieljalomojr5856 I was a 3:00 back in the late eighties, but I used Special Skin Soap and the toner, plus Heavy Controlling Lotion
Great video. I don’t understand using to the toner after the cream either, totally counter intuitive. I always thought MM had dry skin and that’s why she used the Vaseline and Nivea before ( I use both btw & love it cuz my skin is so dry). I also use a lot of cream, maybe your skin needs it? Anyway it’s a nice way to pamper yourself I think.
Wow this is awesome.
@Daniel Jalomo Jr. You are so right about that routine,we followed faithfully through every single step and I never forgot that. I’m so happy you wrote this all here, really enjoyed the memories.Thank you🙏🏻♥️
Laura querida,!!!!!obrigada pelas legendas em português. Abraços do Brazil. Sucesso sempre!!!😘
I love Vaseline. It was once used as the original mascara,and you can use it on many things:as polish for leather goods,as a eyelash growth serum,and as chapstick. Skin nourisher etc…
Omg the shake it looks really interesting. And yes 🙌🏽 please do a Tina Turner video 🥰🤞🏽
OMG 😳 I'm fairly new to your channel but I admire Marilyn Monroe so so much. Beautiful 🥰 talented And empowering for Woman! She was true 💕 loss to our earth 🌍 ❣️ xoxoxo 😘 love ya Marilyn 😘💗💗🥰
New video yay 😀✨
Thanks for watching
Thank you very much
I heard that Marilyn had oily skin so i think the matting effect eas good for her because it controlled the shineneiness. Great product knowledge of Erno Laszlo!
It’s true, the Walmart cotton pads suck lol. I was always getting cotton in my eyes. Use the quo ones from shoppers instead, in the clear bag and pink logo.
Which actress skincare routine did u adopt for every day skin care ?
I don't understand removing the cream with the toner either 🤔
Back then they were oil based and so if you had acne prone skin or to prevent the clogging, you remove with toner.
Very interesting. Def fun to watch. Those steps are weird compared to what most do today lol like the debate in the comments about marylins skin type and routine lol
You look so young w/o makeup. Like really young! It's amazing! I need to know about your nails, Laura. Do you sell those on your site? Or do you get them manicured like that? They're gorgeous!
I’m very happy to see Laszlo products back! Used to use them in the 70s and they are unsurpassed ! If you want perfect skin, try them
Thank you !!!!
💕💕💕
21:23 scared the shit out of me, thought my cat was in trouble 😭
Haha sorry 😂😂
Oh, I’d love to see a vintage Bond girls video!
I have been a dedicated Erno Laszlo user for decades. I think if you have dry skin you should use the Erno Laszlo Hydraphel Skin Supplement which doesn't contain alcohol. The Phelityl Night Cream is really for combination/oily skin. Are you still using EL?
Great video Laura! I feel for you though, because the whole routine seemed too abrasive. My skin is very sensitive, so I wouldn't ever be able to to do this kind of a routine. The toner might be Witch Hazel. We loved it in the 70s. 😃💕⚘💄🌿
Use the Phytiol soap and hydrophil toner
Incredibly handsome cat.
Pinky is so beautiful! 😻
I think todays bb and cc creams are a take on the shake it, there are some good ones out there which give that Matt yet dewy complexion. Alot of alcohol in all the products which isn’t good for the skin after time. Lamar cream have similar ingredients to the night cream without the alcohol and is a lot cheaper so that could be an alternative.
Face Cream before toner? she had oily skin, but needing still some moisture...maybe she let Cream sit For while and Then used toner to wipe all Out( like a short mask, If this makes Any sence) just guessing but great video and i love this content. Thank you very much.
Please do Joan Crawford if you haven’t already!!!
I remember similar items in the later 60s & 70s. Everything had so much alcohol in it, I've heard from a Dr talking about the times & how some people developed pancreatitis & cirrhosis of the liver because the skin is the largest organ & with as much as people actually drank then slathering it all over, they were pickled inside & out 😮😢 🥒
This routine is insane! How much earlier did you have to wake up to get all this done?
I'm sure someone already mentioned this but when you were putting on the toner you were supposed to drench the pad and lightly rub around your face avoiding the eyes and lips but it appears to me that you were practically scrubbing the pad on your face for a very long time which would in fact eradicate any moisturizing from the prewash oil. The "shake it normalizing" cream you seemed to put it on the way the it was directed for the toner.
Thank you for all the trouble you have gone to in making this for us, xxx
Have you tried the new Besame skincare yet? I would love if you tested it like this and let us know what you think of it.
Have you ever reviewed Merle Norman products, Laura? LOVE their cold cream.
Yes I have ! Check out my cold cream video
@@Laurajaneatelier I’ll search for it. Thanks, Laura.
Hi everyone I need advice I would like to approach the products of erno laszlo I can use the tonic the soap and finally put the cream and that's it? Please answer me
you will do another video with skin care routine, makeup routine with vaseline and her makeup creme, and also chanel 5. the entire week. i will love to see that. forgive my english, is rude but is what i khow.
If you have oil or really oily skin you might break out a little more at first because this brings everything to the surface.
J adore❤️❤️
I remember being told that quo’s cotton pads are good, that being said I don’t use pads anymore when removing makeup.
It works quite good to use the shake-it over a thin coat of Vaseline as primer. Pretty sure that’s how Marilyn might have balanced it.
Do you think you’d do a video using the vintage facial steamer? If it’s safe that is
I thought about it. I need to make sure that it’s safe and doesn’t have abstesto
What is this white jar in the upper left corner between the brush and the little silver container?
Please, I need to know!!!!
It looks like it has rose gold around and on the lid!!!!!
Is this soap moisturizing?
I bought the Ernie Laszlo Duo Phase powder on eBay.
Have you tried Philip Kingsley's Elasticiser?
