Beauty influencer Jasmine Chiswell recently shared a video demonstrating how to apply lipstick using a lip-shaped makeup tool from the 1940s. In the clip, Chiswell reviews the “Glamour Lips lipstick applicator” which she purchased for $12, showcasing the unique device that was designed to apply lipstick perfectly. She followed the detailed instructions from the lengthy pamphlet that came with the applicator, ensuring that she applied the lipstick correctly for the best results.
The vintage lip applicator required users to cover the inside flat surface with lipstick, smoothing it out evenly with a finger or lipstick. Users were instructed to wipe off any surplus lipstick from the top edge before moving the handle from the chin to line up the top ends with the corners of their mouths. The lips were advised to be dry and powdered before applying the lipstick using the tool to achieve an even distribution of color on both lips as per the pamphlet’s instructions.
Chiswell followed the step-by-step process, rubbing the lipstick on the applicator and placing it on her lips according to the instructions. The lipstick applicator lined up perfectly with her lips resulting in red, plump lips, showcasing the effectiveness of the vintage tool. Chiswell, who typically steers clear of using vintage makeup on her face due to potential harmful ingredients, enjoys sharing her vintage beauty experiments online through videos and swatches.
Living in California, Chiswell frequently replicates old-school fashion and beauty looks from the early 1900s and iconic figures like Marilyn Monroe. She is known for experimenting with a variety of vintage beauty products such as hair removers, wedding dresses, foundations, makeup brushes, lip gloss, eyeshadows, and bras. Chiswell has a deep appreciation for vintage aesthetics and lifestyle, often taking inspiration from glamorous Hollywood icons like Marilyn Monroe.
Chiswell’s commitment to a vintage lifestyle extends to her residence in Marilyn Monroe’s former Mediterranean-style home in Hollywood, which she moved into with her husband. The couple fell in love with the property, learning about its historical significance as one of the homes where Marilyn Monroe once lived. Chiswell’s passion for all things vintage, combined with her dedication to recreating classic beauty looks, has garnered her a considerable following online where she shares her retro-inspired fashion and beauty experiments with her audience.
