Beautiful video! Has special meaning for me as l was born in L A and have been in the beauty business for over 50 yrs! I am still working at age 79! When l attended beauty college in LA one of my 6 instructors, Mrs. Endicott was a beautician during the depression! She and her entire family,extended family as well lived off her earnings! She was a great lady, l was lucky enough to be taught by the very best......l am still working! 3 days a week!🎉❤ Thank you! I believe the beauty business is here to stay......
I worked for 15 years in the beauty industry ( 5 years managing prestige cosmetic lines at Macy’s). Your videos bring me so much joy. I enjoyed going back in time ❤💄 🏬
Interesting that you mention Richard Hudnut. He was the father in law of Rudolph Valentino. His stepdaughter, Natascha Rambova (real name Winifred Shaughnessy) married Valentino in the early 1920s.
Thank you for another Beautiful Video I love these videos and when I replay them while am cleaning or decorating my house it seems like i missed something the first time I watched it you have AWESOME detail to your videos I love it Thank You Beautiful ✨🤩Guaranteed Nostalgia ❤️
Such a loss...Field's was great. I hated the Macy-cization of every department store in the US around the early 2000s. They tried to buy us loyal customers off by continuing Frango mints, but we weren't having it.
Your videos are so well researched and written! Have you ever visited the Max Factor museum in Hollywood? 😮 the makeup of Marilyn Monroe, Lucille Ball and more are right there on display. Blessings!
Laura I can't wait to join your channel finally! You're one of the first YT channels I subscribed to❤ There are still 11 Sears still operating in the US and 1 in Puerto Rico. Sadly, the one I shopped in last year just closed in April. It was a surreal experience, rather abandoned already yet filled with all the familiar features I always remembered. And there still stands right where I live an old Sears building containing new businesses but retaining its original structure. Rocking on.
I remember being a kid in the '60s when that Sear's catalogue would come for the holidays. You would make that thing last all year thumbing through the pages. We had a lot of nicer department stores in the Boston area too, like Filene's and Jordan Marsh. Then there were the more luxurious stores like Neiman Marcus (which came later, I believe), Lord & Taylor, and Bonwit Teller. It seems like they all folded around the time Macy's took over everything. ☹ Same with Marshall Field's in the Midwest and Wanamaker's in Philly, both of which were bought out by Macy's, if I recall correctly.
My mom who was from UK, grew up in the late 30's & 40's. She had this old lipstick (I don't know what company made it) but all I do remember about it was on the side of the tube it came in was these little pieces (like a tiny metal lever) that you would push up on the sides to open the lipstick and push down to close. Do you know anything about this lipstick? I saw it in the 1960's when I was growing up and she had kept it, put away in an old sewing box. I don't know if it was a lipstick she had bought in UK or bought somewhere when she moved to USA.
@@Laurajaneatelier Hi Laura, Do you have any videos where you show a close up of those old lipsticks? Is there a place to buy them from, (never used ones that is?) Thank you.
Marshall Fields was bought by Dayton Hudson corporation who was then bought out by Macy's. infact the signature Marshall Fields store in downtown is now branded as a Macy's
Thank you for all of the info you share. I am curious though...why did they call some creams; "vanishing" creams--was that to claim it made wrinkles vanish? I just never heard why that word was used.
I remember buying a heavy tube of HR mascara that didn’t have any bristles at the end of the wand. It was just metal with notches or something, but it felt luxurious to me. I couldn’t wait to save my babysitting money and buy one. 😂
We had Helena Rubinstein in England in the late 90s in department stores, Kendal in Manchester had a counter there as we as borghese, prescriptive, Aveda and origins as well the usual Estee Lauder and El8zabeth Arde,. I used to buy Dorothy Gray at Lewis,s. Remember Richard Hudnut in the 70s.
Yes, just a handful now open . Was watching a UA-cam video on them just a few days ago. They're pretty sad, bare, and outdated looking now, but when I was a kid in the 60's and '70's it was great to shop there. Always candy stop with my own little bag on the way out that was in the front of the store. 😊
Hii Laura 🥰 i enjoyed watching this video so much! i have a question is it true that women back then in the beginning of the 1900 and in the 1930s had a glowier skin and their skin was better and less problamatic than now? I also heard that all creams were mineral oil based? Thank you ❤❤
Dear Laura, I have been a huge fan of your channel since 2020. Please don't take it personally, but please change the lighting setup. Maybe it's just me but I think when you adjust it in a different position it would look way better.
You have never mentioned Hudson’s bay department store in Canada ever in your videos and other Canadian department stores with beauty counters and Canadian beauty products
I love the 30's. I agree that the packaging was amazing and so classy. A fly on the wall when high end was truly high end.

Your level of research is unmatched! I love seeing all the pictures!

So happy you enjoy them! Thank you
Macy’s replaced Field’s😢….. I miss it so much! Used to work there in cosmetics
Oh wow didn’t realize that
Such a loss...Field's was great. I hated the Macy-cization of every department store in the US around the early 2000s. They tried to buy us loyal customers off by continuing Frango mints, but we weren't having it.
I love the packaging, it is so glamorous!!!!!! I love looking into skin care products and make up of all era's. Just loved the video ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you Laura!
Thanks for watching
Your videos are so well researched and written! Have you ever visited the Max Factor museum in Hollywood? 😮 the makeup of Marilyn Monroe, Lucille Ball and more are right there on display. Blessings!
Thank you!! I went back in 2009 but I would love to go again. I think I would appreciate it more now
I remember that actor Michael Whalen worked at Woolworth's before he became famous. Your channel is everythingggg! ❤

I'm glad I found your channel so nice to look back my mother used Coty. And Max Factor and I used to love watching her get ready 😢

Oh the Wish book. 😭 Can we go back. Pleeeeease
Wonderful and educational video
I Love Your Channel! 😊💖
My grandmother, born in 1888 kept her pencil thin eyebrows until she died in the 70’s.
I ❤ your videos!
Thank you
I love your videos !!!!
I like one on the 1950s
Love your new bro! Bangs are too much!
I still have bangs 😂😂

Yes I have a few of those. That was before the twist up mechanism was invented

I miss getting sears wishbook too!

I just never heard why that word was used.
Can you do a 1912 beauty video?
If I could only go back for a day, I would pick the day of the Melbourne Cup, so I could make bank betting on Phar Lap!
They knew how to dress back then
Sadly, Helena Rubinstein went out of business in the 1980s. I used to love their skincare products and I was very upset when they crashed.

SEARS is gone? wow i didnt know that, I lived in the US thru the nineties and remember it well
There’s 11 Sears stores that are still open.
Yes, just a handful now open . Was watching a UA-cam video on them just a few days ago. They're pretty sad, bare, and outdated looking now, but when I was a kid in the 60's and '70's it was great to shop there.

They are all gone in Canada
Sad isn't it. I always got my appliances there because they would deliver to my rural address.
02:20 Those giant balloons are really disturbing, especially the one with those HUGE eyes!! 👀😂🦃🫣🎈

I think the 30s and 40s were the height of feminine beauty in the modern age.
The 50s too
I actually enjoy the 20s the most. Spunky.
Airspun has urea in the ingredient?😲

Yes my ring light was broken in this video that it why it is off. I only had a small one on one side of my face. I have since fixed it.
You have never mentioned Hudson’s bay department store in Canada ever in your videos and other Canadian department stores with beauty counters and Canadian beauty products
That’s because most of my audience is American.
@@Laurajaneatelier I have actually been to that department store. I thought it was just wonderful.
❤
Women curled there hair now people wear there hair straight. They really pampered themselves I love the red lipstick.
First one 🎉
💕💕
I ❤ the 1930s - VERY Glamorous! I wished I could have lived during that time & 1940s. Movie Star Lana Turner was the most beautiful. 😊
