My great great grandmother grew up in the Edwardian era. She apparently had an intense disdain for cosmetics and the idea of a Gibson girl. She says the Gibson girl was a different name for a loose woman. It’s interesting to me. My dad and his siblings remember her being miserable about women’s fashions in the 60s and 70s.

My understanding of Victorian makeup was as you mentioned: hidden in "hygiene" recipes. Concoctions were often made at home and applied discretely, and sometimes under the guise of being therapeutic. Sort of reminds me of how many people used to be treated for a "deviated septum" and ended up with a new nose! So glad we can be honest these days about doing something because we find it aesthetically pleasing.

I'm a writer, focusing on fantasy worlds set around the 1800s to 1930s and I can't express how much I love your channel. I research a lot about each time period and even if it isn't literally put down on the page, being able to allude to these every day things, like how people got ready, makes everything feel more real. I love your channel because reading books and household manuals (you have to love Mrs Beeton) helps but seeing someone go through the steps and explain why certain things were done is so invaluable. And I have used your videos to learn how to work with my hair (I had to cut it short due to being ill and my hair no longer growing well) so now I go to work with gorgeous brushed out finger waves and I feel so much better about myself. Thank you for not only helping my writing and research but also to love how I look again 💗

Okay, I've seen people do authentic victorian makeup before on KZread, but you're the first to show it in candlelight (when it was generally seen) and it makes Such A Difference! Candlelight covers a multitude of sins, especially of color matching. Also the eyeshadow really reminds me of the natural pigmentation you get on slightly less pale people (as opposed to us ghosts who have more of a grey purple color). Really flattering! I did once see a recipe for basically undereye circle eyeshadow from an 1870s or 80s source that was lamp soot and spermaceti brushed incredibly lightly under the eye with a finger. I tried it and I gotta say, it actually kinda looks good in a slightly goth way

I have a book you might enjoy. It's by Victoria Finlay and it's titled 'Color.' She talks about carmine and goes to see a cochineal farm, and she talks to one of the farmers about feeling a bit sympathetic and wonders aloud if it's painful. He tells her that it's likely more painful for the cacti as the insects eat them alive. Her book mostly centers around the history and use of color in art, but she does go into make-up several times. She even mentions the lead white powder so loved throughout history and still in use as late as the early 19th century.
I would love to see you try the old hollywood looks that they would have used on movie sets, you mentioned in the Marilyn Monroe about how they struggled with colors translating through different media and had to get creative, I think it would be super interesting if you did a video on how the makeup would look now vs how it translated on film back in the day

And, she recommended an orange blush. I was like ??? And, she told me the orange would mix with the pink in my face. And, I ended up getting the dior tie dye in coral sunset. It has been the blush I've received compliments on. Then, I now use dior arctrice since it was the closest to orangish/pinkish I could get. And, I now see there is one called "stand out" and it's so orange, imma give it a try!!! 🎉🎉🎉

Erin, I love the eye shadow on you! It makes your eyes pop! For anyone wanting to try this kind of thing with easily available ingredients: -Hickory and black walnut trees are everywhere east of the Mississippi. You can take the leaves and boil them fresh or dry them to extract the tanin. Do not use the nuts or their husks as it will stain your skin for ages. -For plant based reds alkanet and madder roots have lovely reds that are fat and water soluble and last. Beet root has also been used to color the face and food, but the color doesn't last on the shelf. -For earth based reds, iron oxide has been used for centuries as a cosmetic colorant. -Lard or tallow can also be used in place of spermacetti, but coconut oil would probably be more palatable.

@@ouidarajorn2926 Before you commit to making this check that you aren't sensitive to the walnut or hickory you're using. Some people react to this kind of plant so if you're using fresh, take a leaf and mash it up and rub it on the inside of your forearm and let it dry. If you feel any itching, or you get hives, do not proceed. As for shelf life, I'd say 3 weeks in the fridge, or a week un refrigerated. Microbes don't tend to like tanin, so it takes a long time to go off.

You know you are so fun and entertaining, but the amazing part of this is the research. I find your videos so interesting and important.

You are fascinating and fun to watch. I have always loved history, and now I have a makeup historian/artist who knows their stuff. I love this❤❤❤❤
Fascinating! The walnut leaves made such a lovely almost golden colour.✨

I have a black walnut tree in my backyard. Wonder if it's the same thing.

I remember years ago I was searching through KZread to find vintage make up videos, which weren’t very many back then. This channel has quelled all those interests!
Oh more longer videos please! I adore history, this is so interesting! Also, BRING BACK TINY MAKE UP IN JEWELLERY!! 🥰
I just have to say that you are my absolute favorite in vintage content creation. I stop by here often.. thank you for doing this, I thoroughly enjoy all of these videos
That fact you tasted the whale oil. I know you’re willing to do it and staying true, but I would be freaking out. You are so confident. 😭😭
You are truly a beauty historian!!This was so interesting ❤️ Bring us more Erin🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾
I love this, so fascinating!! As a woman with oily, acne prone skin I've always thought I'd be really out of luck if I were born during those days, as most of the skin preparations were geared towards dry skin. You really did your research!
Walnut is high in iodine so the colour is quite reflective of that. Love that your curiosity feeds mine haha 💕
I found your Channel today and I must say I love this channel. Right now I am looking at your playlist of makeup and there's a video where you're reading what is written in these books as you're applying this makeup and giving us all of these amazing recipes from back in the day I am dying to see more of these videos thank you so much for taking the time to educate us about the history of makeup especially sharing these recipes and showing what the result is.
This is so fun! Love learning about the history of makeup and what women used.
Okay, this blush is INSANITY but the way you applied it is so perfect and in all my years of MAKEUP I have never heard of this method and it makes the MOST SENSE!!!
Love the longer videos, the reading of the books, the amount of research you've put into this makes it as captivating as your make-up skills. I don't wear make-up anymore but I love watching you put it on and talk about the way it used to be done. Thank you for doing these I am thoroughly enjoying them!
I love everything but the blush. I've never been a fan of the "slapped cheeks" look. But it does look truly natural and undetectable. It's impressively stunning and I appreciate your content. Now I know what some of the ingredients my mother had around the house were used for. And the cost lol
I love all your historical videos! Keep them coming! Please!🙏😍💄💋
your channel brought me out of my 2 year makeup drought where i lost all my interest and self love and self car routine. such a joy to see your videos and all your knowledge, have a beautiful sunday 💕

Me too! She really makes makeup cool and fun
I can't get enough of your videos! I think because I love all things vintage but to me the 30's 40's and 50's are my favorite as far as make up goes. You do such a beautifully in-depth job of explaining things.
If this video was another person's I don't think I would have watched 2 minutes. Just finished it, a video that isn't a short of Erin's for the first time. This is not exactly my type of video but Erin is so charismatic and the history content really interesting. Congrats!
I'm not even into makeup in general but I'm obsessed with this channel. I never knew how interesting makeup history could be and I'm so grateful Erin can open up this world of makeup in her beautiful and fascinating way... I've run out of vids now and I'm getting withdrawls already... Need more 💜
8:49 🙏🏻 thank you for not gatekeeping the info/recipes on us… you’re a real one💗
This video was so informative and so much fun! I was hooked throughout the whole thing. I absolutely love that the recipes have been recreated the "authentic" way but we were also provided an alternative! I thought it was super interesting to see the make up applied the modern way, but when Erin said she would later apply it the historic way, I got so excited! I really looked forward to it. Then at the end, when she said that the make up would be worn in yellow candle light and showed us how it would look in a different setting, my jaw dropped. Like... she put SO much thought and effort into everything, I kept getting surprised by all the interesting little additional bits we got (such as the passages). I can't wait for her to make more of these long form videos. They're so refreshing and absolutely amazing! Thank you so much Erin!
Love, love, love that you showed the end results with realistic lighting for the time period! So clever!
As a vegetarian and someone who uses only vegan and cruelty free makeup I am still interested in the ways of the past and appreciate your videos 💕
Pleeeease consider making more longer videos. Your voice is so soothing and the content is so refreshing and interesting!! No one is doing it like you
I’m so glad I found you from tiktok! Seeing your tiktoks are cool, but I love that you get into the nitty gritty with these longer videos!
I need a tutorial for that Victorian cottage loaf hairstyle! I loved this whole thing
I've been in the beauty industry over 20yrs doing hair and Makeup and you are by far one of the most informative Artists I've ever come across xoxo ✨❤️ I love your work!!!
