Lucrezia Borgia - Tutorial | Beauty Beacons

In this episode of Beauty Beacons we're going to have a look at the renaissance femme fatale, Lucrezia Borgia. Not only her rumoured murderous and incestuous reputation, but also her famed beauty made her go down in history as a beauty beacon.

There's a type of pasta here in Italy that is called "tagliatelle", whose shape was inspired by Lucrezia's wavy hair:) It would be great if you could do a tutorial for Frida Kahlo's braids ... she had a peculiar beauty and was also an incredibile woman !

[@TheRubyFeline]

It would be so fascinating to find out what these historical women were really like. I vote for again, heehee, Mme. de Pompadour, although everyone seems to be going for Marie Antoinette: Pompadour is a more interesing personality, imho, and we have a hairstyle named after her, haha.

[@onesweetfantasy]

Love this! I loved The Borgias on Showtime.

[@Poprah]

Maybe you can do lord of the rings women look? (eowyn, galadriel, arwen etc) I know its fictional, but technically its fictional history! But also Princess Diana will be awesome! :)

[@sweetpea8732]

She has actually done a bunch of lord of the rings themed tutorials already, they're great :))))

[@Poprah]

Seriously? Cause I haven't seen them haha they're probably old than huh?

[@jendionson]

i love the videos you're doing recently. not just a tutorial but with history as well. kudos to that! please dont stop doing this series

[@MillyMayy]

Beautiful hair style! I would love to see a video on Eleanor of Aquitaine, I find the history of her life so fascinating!

[@aprilyoung7484]

I’m going to use this style at the renaissance fair this year 👸🏻

[@dashabates9865]

I would love to see eleanor of aquitaine , lady godiva, andromeda, isolde , boudicca, hippolyta, grace kelly, or bette davis I know ifs alot but I figured options never hurt, :)

[@laurasshow16]

Beautiful! I study history and am very intrigued by your channel! :)

[@reneekittycat]

I have always been fascinated by Lillie Langtree. She was supposed to be beautiful, I'd love to see you do her style! Love your videos!

[@mssanchez2493]

She is my ancestor. My family comes from Spain with the last name Borjas, the name changed over time from the Borgia family name.

[@monicacarrasco2174]

wait are you serious or joking

[@bunheadladymelody3355]

That's so fascinating

[@makeupboss9812]

That’s thoroughly fascinating. The oldest ancestor in our family is King Niall if Old Ireland. I did some research and it’s really cool what I found.

[@mel5540]

Love your videos!!! could you maybe do Elizabeth 1 or Marie Antoinette??? xx

[@Moistcraictical]

Please do the sixties supermodel, Jean Shrimpton!

[@CelesteGhelfi]

Love this! Please do Sophia Loren, or maybe Cleopatra?

[@LovesDarkBlue]

Yes Cleopatra! or Helen of Troy!

[@PercivalHoward]

This is just gorgeous! Curly hair is so pretty :) This is the first time I have heard of Lucrezia, so I need to brush up on my history. What about Bette Davis for future videos?

[@ladyoftimeandspace]

Thank you so much for that video. I love how you created a wearable, everyday history hairstyle. My hair is too long for regular 40s/ 50e vintage hair styles but I love wearing special hairstyles that don’t require lots of effort since I already have curly hair. And seeing this hairstyle based on one of my favourite historic figures and ages made me really happy. Usually Renaissance hairstyles take time and skills that I don’t have so this one is even more special to me. Thank you.

[@lillyhayworth9039]

Beautiful video! Please do Nefertiti or Marie Antoinette next.

[@naox1411]

LOOOOOVE ALL YOUR VIDEOS. I JUST SUBSCRIBED. JEJEJE YOU'RE GREAT

[@MusicGirl6300]

[@makeupboss9812]

Again, thank you for such an amazing and informative experience. This is really good. I’d love to see Cora Munro from Last of The Mohicans

[@luna160881]

Yay, Lucrezia! The tv series is really cool. I'm always curious about stories evolving around them and the Tudor family... For suggestions, we have Grace Kelly, Princess Diana, Esther Williams, Marilyn Monroe, Farrah Fawcett, Angelina Jolie, Scarlett Johansson, Brooke Shields, Sophia Loren, Natalie Wood, ...

[@Ashethetics]

I love this series so much! I've worn a few of these very old styles out and been complimented many times on them being very 'different' :) Following on from Lucrezia, I was wondering if you could do a piece on Catherine de Medici? I found her very difficult to find much information on cosmetically, but she has always been a very interesting figure to me. Thank you so much and keep up the great work! :)

[@user-ve1fb4nd1y]

please do Elizabeth Tudor ! Love your chanel❤️

[@Noblebird02]

Just did this look!

[@SereneDreams]

Princess Diana, Charlotte Brontë. :D

[@dinael7482]

LOVE THE HAIR

[@DanielleFiore]

Amazing, it looks really simple to do! Being a historical model/costumer I have to try it :)

[@leam6371]

Awesome video as usual :)

[@hollybums89]

I love you videos so much, especially your series, all your vlogs, everything. Your videos helped me through a difficult time a year ago, and I always get excited when I see a new upload. Could you please do Clara Bow? the original 'It' girl.

[@autumbliss8738]

Beautiful Lucy! Some ideas:Mary Queen of Scots, Elizabeth 1, Marie Antoinette, Princess Diana :))

[@CaitlinBlair]

Great job. Loved this look. I definitely think Cleopatra would be an interesting one to try next. :)

[@themonkeysdidit]

Adore this hairstyle! If only my hair would hold a curl!

[@sachinparcha4816]

You are so pretty. And your hair also.

[@stripesandcheckered]

Love it! Btw are you going to so some halloween tutorial videos? I'm looking forward to it :)

[@Loepsie]

+stripesandcheckered Yes! Starting Wednesday :)

[@jenny4444js]

I would love to see you do a Geisha look please!! x

[@protectnessie]

I just found your channel and I love it!

[@144Sushi]

Great as always ! Did anyone suggested Sarah Bernhardt ? I would love more XIXth or beginning of the XXth century beauties.

[@PeachMoo1]

This one would be challenging to do as the headdresses are elaborate, but I nominate Hurrem Sultan!

[@NicoleSteyn]

Lucy. You got some mad skills girl!!

[@rebeccarobinson6416]

Hi I was wondering if like maybe you can do Ever After Danielle's hairstyles? I like it if you did a makeup tutorial for her too. thanks Becky

[@Noblebird02]

Petrarch's Laura and Dante's Beatrice Portinari and Boccaccio's Fiametta/Maria D'Acquino.

[@bekahzito7250]

I know they both have pretty short hair but Clara Bow or Bette Davis would be so much fun makeup wise. Madame de Pompadour would be pretty fun as far as hair is concerned, and would satisfy those asking for a late1700- early1800 France look (i.e. Marie Antoinette)while sparing your hair the madness that was that hair history episode. (Ps. It may still be my favorite hair history, though 😉)

[@zacharyantle7940]

I first heard about the Borjas in the Assassin's Creed games lol. I think Lucretia was a character in it too

[@lisawhite3742]

I came for the hair and stayed for the history! It's surprising that there isn't a lot of information about her. You'd think there would be more records since it was such a prominent family.

[@sugarlemonpie]

Clara Bow! :)

[@ClioHelliathusPegotty]

Fantastic !!!

[@sofil5991]

Please do Elizabeth I, Helen of Troy, Marie Antoinette, Joan of Arc or Cleopatra!! :D

[@elisademange5448]

wow , beautiful !!! Please can you do Helen of Troy !!

[@melodyvonderpfalz4289]

Do you know 'Elisa di Rivombrosa'? Can you do her wedding Hairstyle? It's so classique and beatutiful

[@emilyrandolph697]

You must do so much research for these videos. I appreciate it!!

[@makeupboss9812]

Please do Isolde. Everyone says that it’s only a Celtic legend. But hey, why not.

[@AliGMich]

Do Grace Kelly, she was a picture of elegance!

[@JuliaKasdorfMusic]

hi. could you please show the resulting hair style a little more? I didn't even really get a glimpse of the finished product. Thanks!

[@ohlawd4455]

Loooove the hairstyle. I was looking for something fancy (kept away) but would take little effort... braids are too time consuming.

[@widadhawot8719]

It's realy good job👍🏻

[@arianabruzzese1488]

Love this !!! Could you do Nefertiti next ?

[@lovewar89]

Hey, where do you got this music from? It's beautiful!

[@sofil5991]

What's the name of the song in the background??? I love it

[@karahershey]

Beautiful

[@charlottefoxmckayfox]

You should do Madame Delphine Lalaurie!

[@julianem7451]

Hi Loepsie, thanks so much for this beautiful video :) just a question, what is the mark of the "tool" you use to curl your hair ? (sorry for my bad English :/) ahah thank you !

[@elm926]

billie holiday please!

[@ryanloader437]

Could you please do the white queen, Elizabeth Woodvile :)

[@jijihobbes]

PLEASE DO CHER!! :)

[@marguerystark9728]

Very beautiful

[@EasrterRising1fan]

She was actually a very virtuous woman. The majority of all of the slander against her were brought about due to the wealthy Italian families who did not like her father. It is a shame what people were able to get away with due to lack of accountability and no internet.

[@blujgirl]

Love this. Sophia Loren next please.

[@memirz2813]

Does anyone. Know the music in the background?

[@heatherwilmothmissoperagho5830]

Can u do Anne Boylen

[@Loepsie]

+Heather Wilmoth (MissOperaGhost) I already have a video on her! Check out the Beauty Beacons playlist :)

[@heatherwilmothmissoperagho5830]

Thanks

[@Melzmatz]

Cleopatra! Please

[@yyg4632]

Doo a viola from twelfth night

[@ExAstrisScientia1701]

[@kamorracousins2169]

princess Diana

[@amixeblu]

Sofia Loren!

[@MissRScott]

You are so beautiful! You could definately be a model :-))

[@kadhal30]

marry of Scotland please

[@kaybbayyy2362]

You messed up in the beginning, you said Lucrezia's first two husbands were murdered. That isn't true, she gained a controversial annulment from her first husband (Who went on to marry again and live a pretty long life) and her second husband was murdered.

[@laurenmallinson3652]

she died during childbirth at age 39... not 32

[@naox1411]

Whats the song name?

[@thxrose296]

2:22 me and this person look really similar.....I feel off

[@sofil5991]

Song name? ??

[@TigaFeva]

Jane Seymour
