11 Facts That Prove Beauty Procedures Aren’t a Modern Invention

There were certain beauty secrets in Old Hollywood.

Many famous actresses of the 1950s used different tricks to improve their appearance. For example, the film studio made Elizabeth Taylor get her eyebrows reshaped. Later, this shape became her hallmark. And Rita Hayworth underwent an electrolysis treatment for a year to lift her hairline. Marlene Dietrich, by the way, didn’t repeat Mary Pickford’s mistake and decided not to have a facelift with unpredictable results. Instead, she asked her stylists to pull pieces of her hair back to make her facial skin look smoother and tighter.
