Soo glad u didn't mention the name...BUT don't worry, they will never tell you it's a replica. To the exact measurements and exact material, stones etc. But it is. Carefully worded on the red carpet as "the exact same dress worn by The Angel Marilyn Monroe" which it is, but NOT THE dress. It's all in the wording, and then they deflect by talking about her having to be sewn into it etc..but the public only hears the pointers. What's NOT said is just as important as what is. Even the words 'oh so this is the exact very same dress M.M. wore to sing to the president' answer - yes, is not a lie. Bc it is exactly the same...but not the one. Yes, it would've been a total travesty.😓..but thankfully not.😅

That part about the auction broke me out in a cold sweat, even though it was long after the event. A huge outlay for a single lip-stick but it might be worth 10 times that amount in another 60 years. My feeling is that Marilyn is going to be remembered for millenia, in the same way as Cleopatra and for similar reasons. For her charisma, beauty, extraordinary intelligence and her courage and creative genius.

​@@emmsue1053 when you're cool toned and have red hair, it makes you actually able to pull off some warmer tones because the warm hair balances the light reflection and brings the skin tone a little to the neutral/warmer tone. However you need to know very accurately which tones suit this balance better. 😊

As someone who tried to help her grandmother (born 1901) find her discontinued red lipstick, I know the pain. Everything that I brought to her was "too blue." I don't think we ever found the color she was searching for, but it was an adventure nonetheless. When I was a teenager in the 70s I read about 'prolonging your lipstick' by mashing the remainder of the lipstick from the tube with Petroleum Jelly. So, I took the rest of her original lipstick and mashed it with petroleum jelly and presented it to her as a lipstick. She was so happy even though I don't think she ever wore it. By then she had switched to a new shade with brown. Great video and thank you for the timeline!

With the invention of the microwave, you can lob off chunks of different colours and melt the shades down in the microwave and blend your own custom shades. You can mix in eyeshadows if you cant find a lip tone youre looking for and mix it in while its melted. Pour into a cleaned lipstick tube or an empty lip balm tube and bam, totally custom colours. Difficulty is recreating your favourite shade.

I was going to say I know haha!!! It’s why people get weirded out when they see the original Wizard of Oz Red Ruby Slippers, they aren’t red at all but an orange brownish tone for the technicolor film. Colors register differently on film and lights used. So those juicy red Ruby slippers looked orange when they used a “red” color. Why films and photos need to always test that makeup and costumes used.

It was such an interesting story. I'm so happy you got the one you wanted! I remember Lisa Eldridge saying in video that MM used to layer different colors to get her iconic shade, so maybe she first used a red or hot pink and the layered the orange on top or something like that. Also the saturation of color is important and could change the color. My skintone has a strong yellow undertone and it's astonishing to me how lip colors show up differently on me that on the models in ads. Maybe with her features orange showed up more reddish.

I’ve studied her informally around twenty years. I studied cosmetology and esthiology at The Aveda Institute and grew up in a salon in my childhood. Great video.

Yes, same here. I understand that Norma Jean/ Marilyn was remembered for the glamour and tragedy associated with her persona. Artifacts are tiny remnants of complex stories that people leave behind. The makeup could also be clues about culture at the time. If solving mysteries sparks interest, Mark Shaw has been working towards justice and investigating Marilyn, Dorothy Kilgallen, and JFK.

I knew about her lipstick being pure orange. My best friends family were friends with the Factors, I can't remember if it went as far as her grandmother or not. I remember her mom telling us that they told her how Marilyn wore bright orange lipstick and something about it being red on film. I was in elementary school so I can't remember the details but the orange lipstick thing always stuck in my mind. I for the life of me wish I could remember the names of everyone mentioned and the details but unfortunately my brain is refusing to divi it up right now.

Another thought came up about this: at 24:27 the very base of Marilyn's lipstick looks quite similar to the tester. I think the top part differs because it was used and oxidized over time. It would be interesting to do a test video on real technicolor using all these lipsticks. If you wanna know more about it, you could try and reach out to M. David Mullen. He was the cinematographer for Anna Biller's the Love Witch and he's an expert on period cinematography.

@@erinparsonsmakeup Unfortunately I don't think it's possible to shoot in real technicolor, since they discontinued it in the early 2000s and it was a proprietary method and only Technicolor labs could process film shot like that. 🙁 Some films nowadays, like said Love Witch, try to replicate it digitally or with the use of a specific set/costume design. Mullen for example used standard Kodak films, with specific lenses, lighting etc., so I don't know how exact colour replication would be with that. And I was wondering, if maybe you could get/rent a spectrophotometer for colour testing of your makeup? 🤔You wouldn't need some super high-tech one, there are small handheld ones for use in printing or in fashion, you could find a contactless one to not mess the makeup while testing. Maybe that would be an interesting way to colour match dupes? Also, is there a chance you could get someone to photograph, and put on Flickr or sth, some of your collection with a proper colour correction (maybe with ColorChecker Passport or sth like that)? I know you have tons of makeup, so I'm not saying the whole collection 😂 but maybe at least some of the most classic/famous/most used examples of various decades? It's so hard sometimes to pinpoint colour from etsy listings or from old yellowed ads. And yes, I know it's still not perfect, cause on one display photo can look different than on another, but with a well-prepared photo it's easier to get an idea. 😊

Yes, I noticed the color change as well. Especially visible on a larger screen. It may have oxidized. Or perhaps she layered a darker color over it or used lipliner under it, and the stain remains. I have 2 old lipsticks from Revlon that have similar orange tones Kiss me Coral and Marigold. Idk if they still make them but they seem to have a similar shade. If this lipstick were oil paint, it would be more of a chrome orange not cadmium. Perhaps that may help. Good luck and thanks, interesting to see the products she used.

The Marilyn Monroe Lipstick it is possible to find the numerical color code!!! There exists some devices that shine lights onto walls and they then find the color value. I believe it’s worth a shot to find the true color of the lipstick and make it so maybe you could have a true dupe made without potentially desecrating her lipstick. It wouldn’t harm the lipstick because it is just light but the one i think would work the best is called Pallette Pico or Color muse. Please please please try it for all of us out here that want to know the color code!

To see how the products aged and how old they look but when they were new or on its prime moment I imagine the whole world different as well I don’t know its hard for me to explain but I’m sure many people think the same. On the other hand I also think is beautiful how even tho she was an icon she had her favorites and sticked to them, I feel like nowadays everything is about having a lot of everything more like quantity over quality/love/appreciation whereas back in the day people found something they loved, kept it and made it an statement for them and I think that is beautiful

There is something lovely about wanting to have an item as intimate as a woman's makeup. Makeup is so personal to a woman and such a big part of everyday life, often times not even being thought of as an important part of life to some since makeup can sometimes just be a routine. But it takes time, thought, and care to paint your face in a way that you want to present to the world. I'm left wondering things like " What would she think of as she carefully made herself up?" Even if she is gone, her earthly possessions remain, dormant of use but given new life through careful admiration and imitation. I'm glad you are able to keep a piece of her from disappearing, if it weren't for people like you many of these items would probably have just stayed in storage, lost to time forever.

I truly love your KZfaq channel and your TikTok’s. My mother had a very difficult time trying to find foundation, powder or lipstick that looked decent for her skin color.

This channel is so cool, I'm a man who doesn't wear makeup and knows nothing about makeup, but I'm absolutely obsessed with vintage style for men and women, I hope you keep making these long-form videos, there is some awesome info in here

They look exactly like the lipsticks my Grandma had. The gold applicator and that red-orange color I remember seeing it all the time. That must have been popular back then💄

As a huge fan on Marilyn I’m so glad I was recommented this video. To me the Revlon substitude to Marilyns lipstick looks different colour, a pit lighter orange and less glossy. But very close. And if you are pleased with it then good. I’m happy that her make up products are saved.

Wow, to think Marilyn's iconic red lip was created by an orange lipstick! It also amazes me that the only modern department store brand she wore was Elizabeth Arden. So much history of makeup! And I'm obsessed with your auction house look!
