The video below comes from an old cine-color film of 1930s Hollywood starlet Constance Bennett and her skincare routine for an average day. Her house maid, Mary, even makes a special appearance, as she keeps reminding Bennett of her important meetings of the day. Of course, the starlet is far too busy applying her layers of cleansing cream, stimulant cream, and let’s not forget the complexion mask! Yet, adding these creams to the skin seems much simpler than the technology of today where you haul out the power cleansers.

Bennett almost makes looking so fantastic easy. Then again, it must be nice to roll out of bed with a face full of perfect makeup.
