The classic Oil of Olay ad in my part of the world features a young man asking a young woman, “Were you my high school classmate?” And she responds with a smile, “I was your high school teacher!”
I was a teenager in the 70's. I was a typical hippie, but loved make-up! Covergirl eye make-up is what I used, and we didn't use eye brushes. We used the little sponge applicators that came in the eyeshadow container. I also used a cheek tint, but I don't remember what brand it was. I do know it was drugstore though. I used Noxzema as a face cleaner, then Seabreeze. No face moisturizer. When I was 20 and had 2 of my kids (I had 3 total) my grandmother introduced me to Oil of Olay and I used that for years. It used to come in a glass bottle. I also used Herbal Essence shampoo. My hair was past my waist, and it's still long even though I'm now a great grandma!
Real deal and relate same. The original herbal essence was great at time. Hair was such a focus. Satin clothes and platforms with shinny anytime. Short mini skirts and scarf halter tops. The wide leg pants with matching tops. Nair. Flavored everything and roller ball glosses. In a decade we went from Annie Hall high waist to the lowest bell hip huggers and back again. Music was incredible! That 70s show is a great depiction and Saturday Night Fever disco was born- Donna Summers. BBE Led Zeppelin ... Again with the hair or mane of locks. It was so diverse and post global conflict everything being fresh and reinvented - guys used Vitalis on hair? Smelled great. Jovan Musk, patchouli oil, beads and tapestries. ☮️ Love and happiness 🥰.
I was born in 1980, and you are both exactly describing what I heard/saw from my mom and dad. In fact they brought quite a bit of the 70s with them into the 80s in terms of music and aesthetic, which didn’t seem very cool to me at the time but in retrospect I see how very young and hip they were! ☮️ I do shudder to think how my mom would slather herself with oil to bake in the sun…though she did always look gorgeous with a tan 🤷🏻♀️
@@Rain_Reign my mom did all these things too. So did I. She was early 30s and I was teens. She was gorgeous. Perfect for the era look. James and Robert did a great look and video here. Both capturing the look. Robert's make up was so accurate. The dance was more 60s I thought but one viewer mentioned the blending of 60 and 70s. That's true in mis 60s to mis 70s. It could have been a sub era- so much going on. These period videos are such fun. I am found of the 1920 and 30s. The flapper and gastby era and Hollywood glam, And post depression. Era. Surely had to be creative in that time on self care and creative and resourceful at that time. 70s hold a magical feeling for many & this was such a treat. 😊
I was a ‘70’s disco queen 💃🏻😁 shimmery blue eye shadow, Farrah Fawcett type hairstyle. In the early ‘70’s, long straight hair, bell bottom jeans and crop tops, water buffalo sandals, Bonne Bell 10-0-6 astringent and Lip Smackers, Flex shampoo, Gee Your Hair Smells Terrific shampoo, QT tanning lotion, musk oil perfume, Love’s Baby Soft, platform heels…..
@@hz1929 Be glad you weren’t really there. But there was some cool stuff. Also race riots, the same exact wars going on right now, women having even less rights. And LGBTQ was barely a known subject. Folks fought hard for those rights, and a lot of them died fighting (Harvey Milk). We have to keep fighting, generation after generation, on and on if we want it to ever change. And have fun while we do it, or our lives aren’t worth living.🥰🌈🫂
Me: "Ooh, let's see what the 70s was like!" Welsh Twins: *aggressive wiggling* DAHDAHDAHDAHNAHNAH Me: "Ah, yes, I've been transported to a bygone era."
My gran worked too hard raising her boys in the 60s - 70s to tan, but her two younger sisters were models and they tanned a lot. They now look like leather.
Every single time Robert films with his.. eh hem.. bosoms.. it makes me want to go back and re watch the Halloween video where James keeps surprise scaring him. Every dang time. Probably doing that next 😱
@@fabioladiazmier8289 it’s by far one of my favorite videos for many reasons haha Robert almost crapping his pants several times being the top reason 🤣

How lucky are we to time travel to a night in Studio 54 with Farrah Fawcett and Paul McCartney serving up room temp cheese and a gelatin vegetable melange. 🤩 Seriously I am having fond scent flashbacks to the Oil of Olay and can still recall the clear plastic bottle with black cap and label on the bottle my mother used. Classic.

Me too!! I wore Charlie, blue frosted eye shadow. Still use Great Lash. Used Seabreeze AND Noxema. The huge tanner then was St. Tropez. Hate to see what that model looks like now. Lipstick color was a red wine type thing. All makeup I owned was Cover Girl. This is right on.
I LOVE y’all so much. I’m currently going through chemotherapy for lymphoma and watching y’all’s videos genuinely make me so happy! Keep being yourselves please m
Can we all appreciate eachother in understanding sarcasm. Please everybody big pat on the back. This beautiful beauty space these 2 and their team of course have created on her for all of us to have a laugh and learn as well. 💕🙏 Love this. Very wholesome everytime they post for me. I feel safe !!!!😊😌😇✨
I don't care what anybody says, the original Olay moisturizer is amazing. I know so many people in their 40s & 50s that have great skin and have only ever used Olay. It's really nice and light, it soaks into the skin so fast, AND it's not crazy expensive. Love it!
My mother had me use Oil of Olay as a kid until I started getting acne at age 11. She’s used it her whole life and doesn’t look her age at all! I’ve always been jealous of her skin
James is John Lennon’s doppelgänger for sure!! Thanks for the many historically accurate facts about the grooviest time in history while making us giggle all along the way. Sending oodles of love
I have to commend the lighting you used during the food portion. The heavier saturation is spot on! Well done with the food, Ashton. Great job, WT Team.
Maybelline cake mascara came in a small red rectangular box. You would wet the brush with water (not spit!) lol. The red eye pencil, sold in a twin pack, I remember some girls would heat the tip with a match so it would go on heavier and darker.
I remember Bonnie Bell Ten-O-Six toner, as well as their lip smackers, Azizza makeup, Rose Milk lotion. Gotta love the 70s!! That "head shop" smell is something I'll remember forever! Great video, gentlemen!
@@barbaratatton3855 OMG I remember how GYHST smells! It was great! As well as the Fabrege' hair shampoo.." you tell two friends, and they'll tell two friends, and so on, and so on"! lol
@@t.dorazio2784 it sold still online but maybe different formula And it's pricey 30$ 🤷☺️ my fav was the hair smells terrific. In search of hair care with great scent always. 😊
My grandma used to bring jello with carrots and celery in it to every family gathering. Bless her heart! She loved it so we would force ourselves to eat it so she wouldn't feel bad!
I'm about 19.23min in and bronzer sticks are mentioned - and suddenly I'm having a total flashback to my mom's rouge/bronze/who knows what-stick from Oriflame that was a brilliant shade of orange the likes of which I've haven't seen since!! And here's the kicker; that shrieking orange gave the most beautiful natural/buildable to evening color on her face! As a kid I never could figure out How in the he$$ it did that, but as an adult I get that it has to do with her skins undertone. That eye-blinding stick is the reason I myself dared to try on more orange-looking blushes as an adult, and wouldn't you know it, it is as beautiful on me now. Thanx mom!! And thanx Welsh-twins for the walk down memory lane 🖤🖤
I highly suggest anyone and everyone who has not tried ambrosia salad try ambrosia salad!!! It is a southern classic and it is amazing! As for Jello salads we do still make Jello salads but we don't use vegetables anymore. It's more of a fruit salad inside of jello and it is delicious.
I grew up in the 70's and central Canada which is like the midwest. Lots of Jello salads but I don't think we typically had fruit flavoured Jello with raw veg like lettuce! Omg I fell out when I saw that. Can confirm that Jello "salads" are still made in the midwest (along with mayo based "salads") and can confirm that ambrosia salad is delicious.
I worked at a deli in upstate NY in high school (in the 90s) and the only thing that kept me going most days was sneaking bites of ambrosia salad. It’s heavenly.
This is my absolute favorite historically accurate series for accurate history with absolutely no muhstakes. Thank you for your continued commitment to sharing 100% RealHistiory™ with the world. 💜💙💚 John Lennon't and Femma Frawcett are two of my favorite historical icons. Side note: I live in the American Midwest and we are well known for our 'salads that aren't really salads' XD Definitely check some out because sometimes the recipes get a little out there! My mom used to make one with orange Jello, pineapple bits, and shredded carrot that I really used to like but a lot of our family used to give her a hard time for bringing it to most gatherings lol.
On the topic of american jelly salads I'm Anerican and I've never seen jelly with vegetables in it like actually in real life (and I grew up in the midwest around people who were kids in the '70s and going to church potlucks in them, so if they were still common I probably would have seen them) HOWEVER Watergate salad (or pistachio delight, green goop/fluff) with marshmallows and pistachios and all that is DELICIOUS Worked at a grocery store deli one summer and that was my favourite thing. It's a very white american thing to do, especially in the midwest
It absolutely doesn’t matter how bad my mood is, as soon as I put the pair of you on to watch I am laughing within minutes! My personal thank you for getting me through the last year. My husband had a heart attack, 2 days later my father passed away and I am caring from my mom while she is on chemotherapy. All I can say is THANK YOU for being you!! That alone has saved me from MANY dark days. I couldn’t love you more!! I score you a minimum of 100 Jackies!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I mean this is exactly how people looked in the 70's ..my mum said she went up Rackstraws like this so it must be true ...look its hot and I think the laughing is going to make it hotter ..love you two xxx
OMG, I totally remember taking the horse and buggy to the local mercantile to get a tube of Great Lash mascara! 🤣 Seriously, though, it was the first mascara I ever used. 💖
For anyone else who now has that tune stuck in their heads… it’s called Wipe Out by The Surfaris… it was also the 60’s… 🌊 I needed the laughs from this today, thank you both for being unapologetically you!
When these two start giggling and chuckling right next to eachother, I feel like they definitely create some sort of seismic output... Someone please check on the fault lines around these bubbly bros. The fun they have together is simply too intense for this planet.
I made vol-au-vent this past week! Some with turkey, tarragon and mayo, and some with smoked mackerel, dill and creme fraiche. My daughter wanted something really 70's for a party.
The Charlie commercial, starring Shelley Hack and the legendary Bobby Short, is forever etched in my memory. I wanted that vibe so much. It took until the 2010s to approach the diversity in modeling. But that damn Farrah flip caused me so many tears. Thankfully, Dorothy Hamill saved us fine, straight hair girls. I'm just glad I didn't get into tanning. I did use awful harsh astringents that stung and dried out my poor skin. Pears soap was popular along with Yardley. Edit: I'm only disappointed that you didn't do fondue
Tupperware was big and made a special mould which was used for salad mounds as well as your fruity salad mould ... often served before and after your cheese fondue
Ambrosia salad is amazing. 😂😂 I make it pretty much every time I go to the grocery store. 😂😂. And I have never met anyone that makes that jello salad thing that Ashton made. Lol. It might be something from another state. But not here in Arizona. Lol
My mom was a teacher and used one of the first fake tans to come out on the market ( she leans toward ginger coloring for her skin and hair) it was a hot mess! The kids loved it and my mom having a great sense of humor rolled with it! Wish there were pics!
Charlie perfume by Revlon. The model, or "Charlie Girl" was Shelley Hack. She later became one of "Charlie's Angels" in the fourth season of the tv series. Her character's name was Tiffany Welles.
What we think of the "Hippy 60s" really only started in 1967, so the 60s happened in the 70s. So the decade (and a bit) went from Woodstock to Punk to New Romantics (early 1980s)
So much factual facts! Also, I looove the ways in which Marcus is in these videos even though he's not in front of the camera. Annnd Ashton!! You did gooood.
@Robert you said it correctly 💜 Venus is the goddess of love and beauty and she is part of Roman mythology... Aphrodite is the same goddess of love and beauty but in Greece Mythology (but they are the same just different name 😅) 💜 Love you Welsh Twins you always made my day 💜
Omg we definitely know exactly what we are talking about in this one and definitely know it’s meant to be the 70s and all our facts are 100% real!
😂❤ can't wait to watch xx
We believe you King 😂♥️
Historian Twins. Love. I'm a child of the 70's, looking forward to this one.
Can’t wait to teach myself some stuff about the actual 70’s! No need to fact check any of this 👀😬
We expect nothing less than absolute historical accuracy from our favorite scientists/artists/entrepreneurs/historians!
The classic Oil of Olay ad in my part of the world features a young man asking a young woman, “Were you my high school classmate?” And she responds with a smile, “I was your high school teacher!”
Haha. Love that.
I still use Oil of Olay because it doesn't have a strong scent.
The censorship of James’ lips when he took his mustache off has me GASPING for air from laughter 😂 We must protect Marcus at all costs!
That totally got me as well! 🤣
I will use myself as a human shield if Marcus ever faces the threat of mortal harm...lol.
I cant cope
I busted out laughing and woke up my cat. 😂
When was that? Time stamp plzz? 🥹
I don’t know how Robert manages to pull every outfit off to the point that I truly don’t question it once. He is very very much in character here 😂

Maybelline cake mascara came in a small red rectangular box. You would wet the brush with water (not spit!) lol. The red eye pencil, sold in a twin pack, I remember some girls would heat the tip with a match so it would go on heavier and darker.
I was one of those girls, I was obsessed with those pencils and applying them that way, in middle and high school 😄
I was a child of the 70's and this really is accurate. Down to the French tip nails, created in 1975!
As a person in America, we do not in fact "still do this". We are in fact, incredibly ashamed of what we've done to and with jello.
As another person in America, I can confirm. It’s a national trauma.
Depends on the geographical location, there are definitely areas where this is still thriving.
The Midwest would like a word….please wait for after the jello salad course.
Ew! 🥵 Never in our circles… I hope that was all of NYC.
Who’s that’s were guy who does vintage recipes?? Dylan something? He makes a great point of the audacity Americans had with jellos 😆

Seriously may be my favorite channel ever. I love both of their individual channels, but when the whole crew is together I just can’t 😂
Loves Baby Soft is the 70’s for
Me. And the model from Charlie was Shelly Hack Tiffany from Charles Angels 💕
Omg I got loves baby soft for Christmas every year in the 80's! I wore that like my whole youth.
On the topic of american jelly salads
I'm Anerican and I've never seen jelly with vegetables in it like actually in real life (and I grew up in the midwest around people who were kids in the '70s and going to church potlucks in them, so if they were still common I probably would have seen them)
HOWEVER Watergate salad (or pistachio delight, green goop/fluff) with marshmallows and pistachios and all that is DELICIOUS
Worked at a grocery store deli one summer and that was my favourite thing. It's a very white american thing to do, especially in the midwest
We definitely got to see a 90's version!! I'd love to see what you guys would so with that one! Love you both 💓
Yay! Ferret fawwcett and poool mackarnteeee. Love it. The oil of ooooolay is giving me flashbacks to my late mom.
Ok these are the most on point outfits to date. LIVING 😆
I have a cookbook from the 60's/70's and it has a hedgehog like that haha x
You need to look up the german Mettigel.
These are one of my favorite types of videos. I'd like to see more...1910, 20s 30s and maybe even more eras or places in history?
I absolutely needed you two so badly today and Marcus’ editing
It absolutely doesn’t matter how bad my mood is, as soon as I put the pair of you on to watch I am laughing within minutes! My personal thank you for getting me through the last year. My husband had a heart attack, 2 days later my father passed away and I am caring from my mom while she is on chemotherapy. All I can say is THANK YOU for being you!! That alone has saved me from MANY dark days. I couldn’t love you more!! I score you a minimum of 100 Jackies!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
You’ve been through a lot hun. Sending love and big hugs from another grateful Welsh cult member 🖤🫶🏻💜
The twins just being themselves, mixed with Marcus' genius editing makes for the BEST entertainment on YT 🤣
Robert you are rocking those nails! James' stache is the best 🤣
Around 18:30 when Robert was putting on the blush, I swear I had a flash back to every other mom on my block in the early 90s. Haha.
I was just crying because of something pointless then I saw you'd uploaded and i instantly felt better.... thank you 🙌🙌🙌
💃🏻 🕺🏻 disco, the Bee-Gees, and John Travolta in ‘Saturday Night Fever’ and ‘Grease’. Ahhhh the groovy 70s.
Omg you both look so good! Who knew 70s style would suit you the most?😻
The way you two feed of of each other 💕💕💕💕 the best!
Oh my God, yaaaasssss!!! They look awesome! Bringing the sexy back to the ‘70s
James, that hair do is perfect for you. Please grow it out for real!
I mean this is exactly how people looked in the 70's ..my mum said she went up Rackstraws like this so it must be true ...look its hot and I think the laughing is going to make it hotter ..love you two xxx
My favorite way to kick off my workweek. Thanks for making Mondays a little bit better 🙌
My bf has started watching these with me because he was always wondering why I am laughing so much 😂
My husband too 😂
@@shannonralston5570 yesssss
Same!!!
OMG, I totally remember taking the horse and buggy to the local mercantile to get a tube of Great Lash mascara! 🤣 Seriously, though, it was the first mascara I ever used. 💖
The two of you with Marcus’s hilarious editing (the beach with the garbage had me rolling) are absolutely perfect 🤩
For anyone else who now has that tune stuck in their heads… it’s called Wipe Out by The Surfaris… it was also the 60’s… 🌊
I needed the laughs from this today, thank you both for being unapologetically you!
Thank you! I knew which song they meant but I couldn‘t find it. Edit: Actually, I was thinking of Surfin‘ Bird byThe Trashmen!
I was exposed to Wipe Out covered by The Beach Boys.
@@christianebachmann692 me too!
When these two start giggling and chuckling right next to eachother, I feel like they definitely create some sort of seismic output... Someone please check on the fault lines around these bubbly bros. The fun they have together is simply too intense for this planet.
I grew up listening to ABBA. My dad loved them! I still know ALL of their songs 😊
Maybelline Great Lash was my first mascara in high school, and I'm a millennial. Definitely has some staying power
I made vol-au-vent this past week! Some with turkey, tarragon and mayo, and some with smoked mackerel, dill and creme fraiche. My daughter wanted something really 70's for a party.
I used Noxzema to wash my face in the 70’s. Also doubled as a cooling and moisturizer when one got sunburned.
Robert, you are giving me my mother! She did her hair just like this and makeup! So great
The Charlie commercial, starring Shelley Hack and the legendary Bobby Short, is forever etched in my memory. I wanted that vibe so much. It took until the 2010s to approach the diversity in modeling. But that damn Farrah flip caused me so many tears. Thankfully, Dorothy Hamill saved us fine, straight hair girls. I'm just glad I didn't get into tanning. I did use awful harsh astringents that stung and dried out my poor skin. Pears soap was popular along with Yardley.
Edit: I'm only disappointed that you didn't do fondue
Tupperware was big and made a special mould which was used for salad mounds as well as your fruity salad mould ... often served before and after your cheese fondue
This thumbnail is incredible!! You both looking amazing- can't wait for the video!
Avon was the answer to everything and they delivered to the door after an in home consultation- studio 54- I was there in the late 70's. Love you guys
Yay this is my favorite type of video from you two. Lol I thought you had done all of the decades already!💜🖤
It’s Sunday night. It’s time to feel instantly better. Watch the Welsh and relax.
James looks SO CUTE in that wig! 😍
He rocks it!!! And roberts nails look so cute!
Ambrosia salad is amazing. 😂😂 I make it pretty much every time I go to the grocery store. 😂😂. And I have never met anyone that makes that jello salad thing that Ashton made. Lol. It might be something from another state. But not here in Arizona. Lol
My mom was a teacher and used one of the first fake tans to come out on the market ( she leans toward ginger coloring for her skin and hair) it was a hot mess! The kids loved it and my mom having a great sense of humor rolled with it! Wish there were pics!
Charlie perfume by Revlon. The model, or "Charlie Girl" was Shelley Hack. She later became one of "Charlie's Angels" in the fourth season of the tv series. Her character's name was Tiffany Welles.
What we think of the "Hippy 60s" really only started in 1967, so the 60s happened in the 70s. So the decade (and a bit) went from Woodstock to Punk to New Romantics (early 1980s)
Yup. There was a blend in these for sure. So much change with acceptance being key. FUN.
So much factual facts! Also, I looove the ways in which Marcus is in these videos even though he's not in front of the camera. Annnd Ashton!! You did gooood.
This is actually accurate AF. My mom wore all this in the 70s, 80s
Yep, I was born in 79, and all of these things were still extremely popular during my childhood 😀
James actually looks really good. Like one of the Beatles or something.
@Robert you said it correctly 💜 Venus is the goddess of love and beauty and she is part of Roman mythology... Aphrodite is the same goddess of love and beauty but in Greece Mythology (but they are the same just different name 😅) 💜 Love you Welsh Twins you always made my day 💜
@10:14-10:20
I died whilst replaying this over & over & over until I could no longer breathe. Thank you for that, needed it. 🥰😂
Yayyy! These are my absolute favorite. I've been breathlessly awaiting another historically accurate video. The oxygen feels so good in my brain.
I think we all need the beautiful absurdity that is The Welsh Twins. Thank you! 🥰
I love learning historically accurate facts from you guys. It’s like real life time travel
