Sadly Ms Harlow died so very young just four years after this feature in 1937. This 1930's make-up session is rare.
She relies upon good health, fresh air, exercise, cream, soap and water, followed by an ice water rinse, for her perfect milky skin.
Note her lashes – they are naturally long!
Jean's eyebrows are high, narrow and very arched. Jean has removed all but the fainest wisp of brow hair, over which she pencils in her look each morning.
She chooses a true red cream rouge for her lips, blending the line perfectly and carrying the color well inside her mouth to prevent a break in tone.
Those very long lashes are black, her mascara of choice being cake Maybelline, which she applies with a fine set of brushes given to her by Max Factor himself.
SKIN-TONE powder is then puffed liberally over Jean’s face and neck, with special attention to nostrils, eye corners and her chin. Taking care to brush from her brows.
platinum coiffure has probably aroused more comment and excitement than any other woman in today’s Hollywood firmament. A natural blonde in fact, Jean chose to encourage whiteness by weekly shampoos with white soap and a final rinse containing a few drops of French Blue. She brushes for softness, and sets her wave with nothing more than water and vinegar.
