The aspirations of modern stars for beauty are nothing compared to what the sirens of the screens of the past did in order to achieve perfection. From homemade techniques that are part of your routine today to "don't try this at home." We've collected 5 beauty secrets for irresistible retro Hollywood icons.
Marilyn Monroe
Monroe used five different lipsticks and glosses to make her lips look plump. She applied darker shades along the contour of the lips, lighter ones - closer to the center. In this way, she also created her own signature color by combining existing lipsticks. But if you overdo it, then inadvertently you can throw yourself a couple of extra years.
Sophia Loren
Sofia Loren used olive oil as a moisturizer and nourishment for her skin. She applied it to her face, body and hands, thereby creating a long-lasting protective layer that is full of beneficial nutrients. The most important are phenolic antioxidants. They prevent degenerative diseases and even help keep the cardiovascular system healthy. Not bad for a beauty treatment, huh?
Grace Kelly
Kelly was very attentive to moisturizing her hands. When asked "why?", She said that "a woman's hands give away her age much faster than any other part of the body." For more effective use of hand creams with SPF factor, which will protect your skin from adverse environmental factors.
Audrey Hepburn
Audrey famously used a pin to separate each lash after she applied mascara to give her signature lush and crisp lashes. Want the same effect without the risk of gouging out your eyes? An eyelash brush and lump-free mascara should do the same (use a toothpick as a last resort).
Jane Russell
The secret of Jane Russell's "individual signature" was simple - she always matched lipstick to nail polish. It wasn't until 1939 that the idea of coordinating these two things was actually developed. Legend has it that Revlon founder Charles Revlon was dining at a posh restaurant when he spotted a woman wiping her mouth with a napkin. He saw that her nail color was similar to that of her lips and a new concept of beauty was born.
