Women's Strict Beauty Routines in The 1950's

 What Is So Special About This Film?


What is so special about it is the aesthetic this woman put into this video. She has such a cheery and fun voice that lights up the room.

This woman has the dressing style down for this 1950's style video about beauty routines and how she does not talk bad about it either. 

Some people in their videos they have some terrible things to say about the 50's while they are making a video about this time period.

She thinks of doing this routine during the week to give yourself some self-care and be gentle with your skin and body. 

The 50's themed music in this film makes it even more calming and has a relaxing vibe to it. She reminds me of my grandma who was born in the 1950's era and brings back some good memories.

I definitely would recommend watching this video as she has some great tips and tricks to put in your modern or 50's beauty routine that you have. It works for both!

What Happens In This 50's Video?  

A woman commentator/Youtuber is in the bathroom and she starts with washing her face using 1950's products and she explains how it does not make her skin breakout either. 

She washes up and uses some cotton pads along with a towel during this beauty routine. She has her hair up in a scarf/hair holder to make sure her hair does not interfere in her face.

This Youtuber uses a mud mask cream. What I loved about this is that she has a 50's themed bathroom that goes well with this video. I just had to point that out. 

She goes onto massage her face and squish her cheeks upward to make her skin tighter as women did in this era. Afterwards she goes onto wear make up and to apply it so that it looks natural.

Then talks about making her powderpuff is clean and ready to use. As you know many of the woman even though they stayed home for many hours of the day they put on makeup and got dressed in day clothes at home.

This is what is surprising as far as I know many people are mostly in their comfy pajamas as soon as they get home or prefer to be comfortable at home at all times.

Women were Disowned for Having Children Out of Wedlock

  Many women during the 1950’s gave up their children for adoption and it was mostly because of babies being born out of wedlock. Within this time ladies who got pregnant out of wedlock were shamed and disowned by their friends and families. They were considered a disgrace to the family to have a child before marriage. During this era, it was widely judged. Which I can understand why they would be disowned because they could not wait until marriage but on the other hand it happens sometimes. Many women gave up their babies up for adoption had the right to refuse to disclose the identity of the father. Lots of the ladies did choose to tell people who the father was but it was more common that the women refused to tell. Social workers at the time respected these women’s decisions about this situation. I personally have mixed emotions about this topic. I do not think that people should be ashamed for having children out of wedlock but still should be widely influenced to...

The Ugly Topics in the 1950's

Coming up on number one is Nylon stockings with the seams up the back and the girdle or garter belt that one needed to wear hose.  Movies and television shows were in black and white. No options for color back in the 50's until the later years.  White gloves were often required and no trousers were to be seen in public. If you were naked out in the streets you would be disowned.  Popular hairstyles of this era were a ponytail or one like the actress Lucille Ball.  Lots of women wore their hair up and this gave them the appearance to look older.  Girls and ladies wore aprons for many of the household chores and it looked unfashionable. Schools were segregated in the 1950's and it was very common that children did not finish highschool.  Kids back in this era had stricter rules and grew up way quicker than many children today.  People had to wear modest clothing and always look presentable.  Racism was a thing back in the 50's and you did not see mu...
