Companies need to go back to a vintage style in their packaging, I think their sales will boost.

[@pheart2381]

Yes, I think a lot of packaging these days almost look like something out of a hardware store. Utilitarian and unromantic!

[@mansihxmua]

I see you also be like old school😂😂😂 things were beautiful and tenderly back then.. and people in world are missing nostalgia..

[@everythinggrandepop7088]

[@pygmiegoatsheepbeat]

I actually have a wardrobe with a built in mirror. Nice idea if I didn't have to bend down to look into it. I'm 5'6 so pretty average height for a 30y yo woman. Apparently people were shorter back in the day of when my grandmother was young.

[@monicahernandez6362]

I had one but it was old I got rid of it in my early teens

[@wareforcoin5780]

pygmiegoatsheepbeat It would be perfect for me. I'm the same size as my grandma was. (My mom and sister got my grandpa's long legs, I drew my dad's short legs out of the genetic lottery.) I fit in to a lot of old clothes when I'm not too fat for it. I have a hard time finding things that fit me as well today. Everyone really is bigger today.

My mom uses her built-in vanity station everyday. My sister also has one for herself, she uses hers to stack her shoes boxes.

[@brookiecookie6586]

Watching this made me curious about the active ingredient they mentioned AT-7. Apparently it was horribly dangerous:( “Hexachlorophene, the active ingredient in Dial, was removed from the consumer market and strictly limited in the hospital setting in the early 1970s amid reports that it caused neurological damage in infants”

[@traci0dee]

The stuff really worked though, apparently. After they stopped using it, there was an outbreak of staph infections in hospital nurseries across the US. It's still in use, but not without a prescription.

[@annathiika5755]

It's mostly been replaced by the use of chlorhexidine in modern medicine and really isn't necessary in common topical use. The reason for the staph outbreak was likely because the use of antibacterials disrupts the commensal microbiome of the skin. This flora imbalance allows opportunistic infections by microbes like S.Aureus, which typically inhabit the skin nonpathogenically.

[@MsSilentsiren]

Thank God I grew up in a Zest family and I'm a Caress girl myself.

[@CroixdeLorraine]

Kristen Roers Very interesting! I used Golden Dial soap on my face for all of my teens and early 20's in the 1970's and 80's in order to fight acne (didn't work!) I finally found Clinique 3-Step skin care and my skin was 100 percent better!! My point is that I didn't know about any danger posed by Dial soap!!

[@Smallpotato1965]

Hm, yeah, but according to Wikipedia hexachlorophene was 'a useful as a topical anti-infective, anti-bacterial agent' in soaps and toothpastes and that it was ALSO used ' in agriculture as a soil fungicide, plant bactericide, and acaricide.' So I wonder wether the problem with toxicity wasn't with the ingestion of the stuff in large amounts because it was used on food? Because some poisons are perfectly harmless when used on the skin but damaging when ingested.

[@prizmarvalschi1319]

Being yourself and working with what you had was a theme till the 90s

[@hammondchees]

“This hair is a shapeless bush.” Story of my life. 😔😔😔 Also this was relaxing af. Also highly motivating as I now feel like a dirty, lumpy, clogged-pore shapeless bush in desperate need of a vigorous scrubbing. And some Dial soap.

[@Starasmr2323]

My mom was born in 65 and she said growing up that they only had like 2 or 3 soap brands and that was it. Boy am I glad for variety nowadays but sometimes it gets annoying because of so much variety lol.

[@audreymcewen9047]

My mom was also born in 65!

[@angies3057]

Actually having threes better because they concentrated more on adding better ingredients to the three instead of having different like a hundred million more different ones where they don't really spend that much time.

I used Hexederm or whatever in my acne years and it worked great. I was mad they removed it from the market because they never said why. I only found out recently that it caused brain damage and deaths, in the US and France. Yikes.

Her bathroom was the bomb! On another note. When I was s teenager my mother took me the dermatologist because of my acne. He told me to form a thick white paste on my face with Dial soap. Then let it sit until it dries. Wash off, repeat five times a week. That was 1982.

[@larahporter8123]

It hurts when I see the way they "gently" brushed their hair... LOL!

[@emacwakeup]

Loved the hair from back then. I don’t understand how by brushing so much they manage to get shiny hair that stays in one on place is shiny and perfectly set.. did they use hair spray? Also, I loved the principles they had back then too.

[@streetofdreams4538]

I know they used setting lotion before curling their hair, but I'm not sure how much of the shine was due to that and how much was due to a good diet and good genes. :)

[@blowitoutyourcunt7675]

Brushing brings down the sebum from your scalp all the way down to the ends of your hair. Also nowadays we have a tendency to shampoo and conditioner hair everyday, back then you washed your hair once a week and set it for the week. Properly set hair that was wrapped at night could last that long! Watched my great grandmother and grandmother do this :)

[@relaxation-Corner]

They washed once a week so probably alot of natural oils. Brushing spreads the oils through hair

[@HereIAm247]

I am very curious about that too. I have naturally curly hair, and I KNOW brushing doesn't have that effect on me...

[@deniseherud]

All I kno is when I saw her going at wet hair with a brush, I cringed so hard and gritted my teeth with every stroke😱😭 I would have brushed out literally all my hair trying that

[@Michelle77Va]

[@Distortedthoughts]

I wash my face twice daily and still have blackheads. I couldn’t imagine washing my face with Dial

[@zelenplav1701]

Angela Carlock. Eat real food your skin will improve.

[@Liutgard]

Dirt isn't the problem. It's overproduction of oil and sebum, and when it gets trapped, you have a whitehead or blackhead. What you need is an extractor- a little wand thing with a wire loop on the end. Look for "Dr Pimple Popper" here on KZbin, and see how she treats blackheads!

[@Liutgard]

Also, as well as eating real food, drinking plenty of WATER (not coffee or soda) helps your body deal with stuff on it's own.

[@rachelclark7782]

[@SandraNelson063]

I think this is what's known as a peignoir set; a gauzy, slinky nightgown with a matching light robe to go over it. Think high heeled slippers with tufts of feathers. The kind of thing you want your husband or significant other to see you in when you get up. Flirty, but in a nice way.

[@danielalvarado9019]

Heather Phillips Sandra Nelson is spot on. It’s a “vintage”Peignoir set. You can find them on Etsy and eBay, or if you can sew, they make reproduction patterns for these.

[@Jilli8310]

Heather Phillips I have a very similar one in light pink that came with the matching robe that I bought at Macys. I have also seen them online and at Boscovs. They still make them, just have to look around.

Skin care has been getting very popular recently. Especially Korean skincare, maybe people around you don't care. Look at some popular magazines, I garentee there's a page about skincare

[@Kubulek17]

must be the kind of people you hang around.

[@Authentically_Aria]

Because in the ’50s women were pressured more to be ”Caretakers of a domestic haven” for their husbands. An ugly woman wasn't someone a husband would want to come home to. It was less about respect and representation and presentation and more about being inviting and helpful to men. People haven't really let themselves go, it's just that when you have 3 essays to write, school to get to, and other obligations that aren't soap related, you're less likely to fail English class just so you can do a long ass beauty routine.

[@once.upon.a.time.]

I agree, although that's not always a bad thing to not care. It leaves you open to more diversity.

[@alexismorell-carrington-co6310]

Well there's also just so much to do in today's world.. and much more costly to live. For most of America. I myself use medical grade skincare as it works best for me but I spend a huge chunk semi- annually on basics.
