How to be Pretty in the 1940s: Daily Routine 4K Colorized

I love these vintage videos. I'll look at them too, for inspiration. People today may laugh, which I've seen in some of the comments. But this is no laughing matter. Her life was put together nicely, and people get it confused with perfection. Nobody's saying their lives were perfect, not even the people who produced the film in the 40s! What the film is telling us is that this is a great way to teach young girls (and some women) how to have a decent routine that gives you confidence, put your life together orderly and nicely without trendy nonsense.

[@wormy5935]

Just a reminder that you can, in fact, enjoy the style of years past without running to the comments to spit venom at modern women. Besides, people were getting tattoos for self-expression back in the late 19th century!

[@missvida6251]

I agree but it is so hard not to talk about us modern women

[@JRNarian]

This was my grandma's era. I remember as a child she always told me "all you need is face powder, lipstick and a good perfume."

[@leea2112]

we learnt this from our grandmother and mothers to keep clean and dress smart still do thanks gran and mum !! 🥰👍❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Women of yesteryear were absolutely beautiful and were so well put together. I wish I could be more like that.

As a man of 26, I deeply love old school aesthetics like in the video, for some old very old fashion in a bad way for me it is in a good way, feminin , very nicely looking and mature and very pretty!

[@zacharyrome3432]

She could still be alive .

[@janetduncan87]

I dont know where these were shown originally, but I think it is a great tool for teaching young girls how to look presentable. Girls today look like slobs. Sweat clothes, or pajamas. Depends on where you live I suppose. 🤔 My 9th grade Home Ec. Class invited a lady from Merel Norman Studio to come and teach how to apply makeup. We had 2 studios at the time. I just remember how things were done then. I took a modeling course which also taught etiquette. I even tried out for the towns pageant.

[@coryrain]

I want to known who this narrator is. She's been in other videos you've uploaded.

[@BikiniSeasonXx]

I feel like I'm living in the wrong decade. I want this life so bad. 🥺

[@lemurianchick]

Do you wear skirts and dresses all the time? A woman wearing pants 👖 in the '40s and '50s wasn't a thing overall.

She had a tiny closet compared to us but her clothes were better quality and she took care of them. If only young women now did these simple routines instead of Botox, fillers and fake lips. Natural is so beautiful.

[@killzoneisa]

Now they want a closet the size of a bedroom and fill it up with cheap made in china clothes.

[@JohnSmith-x9t]

👍

[@sisuguillam5109]

You do understand that this is rhe equivalent of media today telling women/girls how much better they would look with a bit of filler? And it doesn't matter what you think - it is not your body getting dressed and primped. As for the clothing: how exactly are people supposed to make clothing last that is not made to last?

[@MissVictoryRolls1940]

@@sisuguillam5109you buy vintage garments, or better quality staple items, but less often. Fast (throwaway) fashion is the scourge of this planet…

[@zvezdoblyat]

​@@sisuguillam5109 I get your point about clothes lacking quality, but of course there is only cheap low quality clothes in stores now because there is a demand for it. Also how on earth is anything in this video equivalent to "getting a bit of filler" there's nothing here that requires putting foreign substances into your body that may have life long side effects

[@erinrenman1479]

I love these old beauty and style videos but I wish people didn't take them as an opportunity to bash modern women

[@Anna-dv5jy]

Even in the comments sections of these amazing old vids theres more and more "tradwife" political undertone. Stop bashing "unclassy" women and just enjoy the content/go for your classy type.

We give up a bit for this simple life but looking at the astronomically high depression rates in modern women, maybe we should start thinking about how to embrace this life moving forward.

One of the beauty routines the women of the 1920s and 30s and 40s had was that they did not put disgusting tattoos all over their bodies. Also radiation from all the nuclear testing had not seeped in yet So the women and men back then were not like the mutants of today.
